  • The MOST Illegal Feeling Info (free will is a facade)

    Hello, Hello! Today, Nour shares her favorite piece of information that feels illegal to know (free will is a facade) alongside her favorite submissions from you guys. Nour divulges her authentic journey and personal tackle with free will. Her along with many other youngins in the South were taught that free will is a choice that was given to us by God... but how that does add up with modern philosophy and scientific discovery? Big shoutout to the one and only Zach Stevenson for changing Nour's mind. New must ask question on a first date everyone: Does free will exist?

  • From Catholicism to Atheism w/ Maddie Glosemeyer
    Hello, hello! Today Nour is very excited to share her conversation with her very good friend Maddie Glosemeyer. For every facet of our lives, we try and read all perspectives to gain the most knowledgable viewpoint.. but with faith? We never hear the opposing side, until today. Maddie was born into a Catholic home and after almost two decades of the bible belt, has had it up to here --you can't see but Nour's hand is above her head-- with religious teachings. Albeit, she explains some good things about faith, there is quite a lot of bad. Maddie unapologetically shares what she likes and dislikes about Catholicism and her Catholic upbringing, how she transitioned to a life without God, and if she's scared she's going to burn in hell. Super lighthearted topic today! (I kid)
    But it is an important one and Maddie and Nour's banter helps break the seriousness :)

  • My Problems w/ Social Media That You Didn't Hear on "The Social Dilemma"
    Hello, hello! In today's episode, Nour first shares her thoughts on the docudrama "The Social Dilemma" (which should have been named "Checkmate Against Humanity", way cooler.) She also responds to YOUR comments on your social media dilemmas. Finally, she addresses her personal issues with social media and gets vulnerable but not TOO vulnerable, not that trendy vulnerability where people exploit their insecurities and dive headfirst into uncomfortability simply for the sake of content. (That's issue numero uno.) But, she does grab a hard lemonade and go back to good ole days in college where she f-d up and expresses her newfound belief in social media boundaries. Of course, she ends on a somewhat political/philosophical hodgepodge on the current epidemic. Not Covid. Cancel Culture. Canceling people based on old tweets. You can probably guess her opinion, based on her motto "A wise man changes their mind daily." If we aren't allowing people to redeem themselves or change their minds, well Houston we have a problem.
