Rep is a bold, wide-ranging podcast, brought to you by journalist Noor Tagouri. ⠀ Noor began by examining the misrepresentation of Muslims in US media and how this impacts American culture. She discovered a fuller exploration of the ever-evolving story of America, which challenged the stories we’ve known…and revealed how the stories we tell affect all of us. ⠀ 

Rep is a thoughtful investigation of our beliefs and understandings and how they exist within the dynamic of politics, pop culture, and public opinion. ⠀ 

This is a story about the stories we tell. 

Welcome to Rep. 

Rep Voices include:

Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam

Bella Hadid

Hasan Minhaj

Huma Abedin

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar

40+ more public figures, experts and academics

Hi Friends, On Monday, myself, At Your Service, and iHeartMedia announced our investigative podcast series, Rep. The trailer is posted anywhere you listen to your podcasts, and at www.ays.media/rep 

Before the first episode drops on Monday April 4, I sent the final cut to some friends and family whose opinions I really trust. One of them, my close friend Rachel Aschalew, who is a brilliant human and equally brilliant storyteller. At first, Rachel was calling me to tell me about my mom’s voice in the episode, so I recorded it to encourage my mom to start her cooking show!! But I’m so glad I recorded because what I really received was some of the most meaningful feedback on my work. 

I’ve described this process of creating Rep as emotional, exhausting; but I never realized what that meant until it was reflected back to me through Rachel. Rachel has always seen me, it’s why we’ve become so close, her big heart is how we started Family Dinner during COVID, and we’ve been collaborating with her company RARE to hose our intimate family dinners for larger groups. 

We have a beautiful Iftar dinner coming up that Rachel is helping us produce in celebration of Rep, so to say the least, Rachel has been there for this journey. For Her to discover me even more through Rep is EXACTLY my intention for listeners. 

So, with that, welcome to Rep. 

You can listen to Rep, by At Your Service and iHeartMedia anywhere you get your podcasts, 

and at www.ays.media/rep As always, at your service

For our #23 Jordan Episode, I interview... Jordan! 

Jordan Casteel is a painter, a professor, a storyteller, a gardner, and my dear friend. This is a different kind of Jordan Casteel interview, while we do get into the art of things. I am so pleased to introduce you all to Jordie, the person. You see, Jordan and I moved up to the same area of the Catskill Mountains in the same week. Fate brought us together earlier than this but as life unfolded during this pandemic, Jordan and I found home in each other. Shortly after that, Jordy painted Adam and I at our new home, what an honor!! This is a deeply personal storytelling session and it is our season finale as we wrap this year up. I love you all. 

Thank you so much for listening. And welcome to this session of podcast Noor. 

For more Jordan Casteel, you can visit her site jordancasteel.com and follow her on instagram @jordanmcasteel. 

Please rate and review the podcast it’s a great way to show support  and give feedback, I read each and every review. And as always, AYS.

Marwa Atik is an LA-based advocate & designer. In 2009, and at 18 years old, she co-founded the brand VELA with her sister, a fashion forward line of scarves. ⠀ Marwa is a style icon. I call her an OG  because when I first started wearing hijab around the same time Vela came to life, she was the only person I knew doing what she was doing - creating a product that made people who wear the headscarf feel incredible without compromising on style. ⠀ Now, over a decade later, VELA serves thousands of women around the world, constantly innovating in the hijab space and creating stunning curations of collections throughout the year. ⠀ This is a long overdue conversation - Marwa and I started building our careers around the same time and have been each other’s cheerleaders from the beginning. 

I’m so thrilled to welcome you to this episode of podcast noor. ⠀

Mona Chalabi is a data journalist, and not a traditional one. Her work is typically presented through brilliant illustrations many of us have shared on Instagram. She makes data cool and accessible, easier for people like me to understand. Most recently, she is the host of a TED podcast called Am I Normal? Mona is a storyteller and her language is data. Number-focused data is something I’ve struggled with understanding and that’s why I was very curious to host this session. Welcome to this episode of Podcast Noor. For more Mona Chalabi, you can listen to her podcast “Am I Normal?” Wherever you get your pods.

This week's storyteller is Lara E, also known as Gazan Girl. Lara is a Palestinian American international lawyer and activist, and a resource that I use when learning and educating myself on Palestinian current affairs. She acts as counsel in international disputes and dedicates a large part of her legal practice to human rights work, including accompanying asylum seekers in asylum proceedings before French jurisdictions. ⠀  Lara also has a weekly podcast called The Palestine Pod that she co-hosts with Jewish American comedian Michael Schirtzer. They talk all things Palestine, and of course in this conversation, we also talk all things Palestine. We go into an analysis of the Media's representation of the Palestinian struggle; we go into Lara's personal story, her family story, intergenerational trauma, and we get into detailed descriptions of her favorite Palestinian dish, which is also one of my favorite Palestinian dishes. 

All this and more on Podcast Noor. ⠀
