Lem Zakharia, friend of the show and former producer of It’s A Lot, has been hard at work creating an incredible podcast memoir about her life called Twice Displaced. In the first part of the chat, Lem talks to Abbie about growing up as a queer woman in Jordan, her experience of the patriarchy, and how she feels colonialism impacted places like Jordan.
