Iranian American woman, journalist, and Young Voices PR associate Tahmineh Dehbozorgi joins the show to tell us what it was like to grow up under a tyrannical theocratic regime in Iran. How did reading Harry Potter get her in trouble as a child? What was life like for young women in such a sexist society?

Plus, we talk about her decision to come to the US and what it’s taught her about the importance of the liberty that so many Americans increasingly take for granted. We also dip into everything from social justice warriors to Middle East foreign policy to her food take on pork.
