After a two-week break, Wesam’s World Podcast returns with a more personal and reflective episode. Wesam and Alex sit down to share some of the deeply painful, life-altering events they’ve recently experienced.
Wesam shares for Alex about the unexpected passing of her mother and the heartbreaking situation his family is facing in Syria, where loved ones are currently in life-threatening conditions. It’s a vulnerable moment for both of them—one filled with grief, uncertainty, and the attempt to find balance while returning to normal life.

After getting through the hard part, Wesam and Alex slowly shift the tone—checking back in with the world of entertainment and creativity. They reflect on some current issues in the acting industry, including Marvel’s direction, the fatigue around comic book franchises, and the rise of AI in filmmaking. They also dive into the realities of negotiating contracts, the pressure on actors to accept unfair deals, and the lack of accountability for scams in businesses.
This episode is a reminder of how art, conversation, and connection remain essential—especially during life’s hardest chapters.

Wesam is back with Episode 341 of Wesam’s World Podcast — and this week he’s joined by elite Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Isaac Doederlein, one of the top American BJJ competitors in the world and a student of the legendary Rubens “Cobrinha” Charles.
They dive into all things BJJ and competition mindset—from Isaac’s time on the UFC’s BJJ: Road to the Title series to the injury he sustained after refusing to tap (and what he learned from it). The two also have an honest conversation about staying natural (natty) in a world where performance enhancement is common—and what it’s really like to go up against someone who’s not.
They answer some listener questions, talk about mental toughness, recovery, and what it means to stay disciplined in and out of the gym.

Wesam is back with a brand-new episode of Wesam’s World Podcast, and this week he’s joined by Thomas Kong — designer, creative director, and founder of Kongruent Works, a design & fabrication company specializing in hospitality through objects, signage, branding, and consulting.
Wesam and Thomas dive deep into the why behind branding, the power of radical hospitality, and what it means to build something truly meaningful from the ground up. As owner and investors of the brand-new House Roots Coffee in Northridge (right next to CSUN), Thomas shares the untold origin story — from the "why" convos to creating a space built on efficiency, quality, and genuine care for community.
They explore the difference between conviction vs. inspiration, the importance of good friendships in business, and what it takes to bring a vision to life — not just for aesthetics, but for impact.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, creative, or just figuring out your purpose — this one will hit home.

Wesam is back with Episode 339 of Wesam’s World Podcast, and this week he’s joined by return guest, friend, and fellow BJJ practitioner Rizaldy Jr.
Wesam and Rizaldy go deep in one of their most meaningful conversations yet—covering creativity, transformation, and healing. Rizaldy shares what it was like to paint a portrait of Wesam (something he rarely does for close friends), what he learned in the process, and how the experience changed his perspective as an artist.
They also reflect on Rizaldy’s journey out of a darker past—escaping drugs and a destructive lifestyle—and how art helped him rebuild. The episode ends with a beautiful conversation about creative energy: Do you control the art, or let the art move through you? Are you focused on the tools—or do you let the moment guide you?
Vulnerable, honest, and creatively rich—this one’s for the artists, dreamers, and anyone on the path of becoming.

Wesam is back with Episode 338 of Wesam’s World Podcast! This week, Alex puts Wesam’s AI detection skills to the test—and let’s just say… results were mixed.
From there, it’s a deep dive into one of their favorite topics: 1993, aka the greatest movie year of all time (don’t argue). The 90s knew how to do film right. They also dig into the importance of communication skills in the workplace, how people miss basic connection cues, and—because it's Wesam’s World—things eventually spiral into some bad rapping and off-key singing.
Insight, nostalgia, chaos. The usual.

Wesam is back with Episode 337 of Wesam’s World Podcast! He and Alex kick things off by setting the record straight:
No, Wesam is not actually following anyone home over a honk. Let’s all calm down.
Then they dive deep into the world of acting today, focusing on the importance of self-tapes—how to do them well, what makes a good reader, how to stand out, and the honest truth about what it really takes to book.
They also explore the looming rise of AI in the arts, what that could mean for creative careers, and how the industry is shifting fast. The episode wraps with a powerful reminder: whether it’s your job or your hobby, you need something you love doing—because time is too short to spend it checked out.

Wesam is back with Episode 336 of Wesam’s World Podcast, and this week… Rage Mode is ON.
It’s just Wesam and Alex in the studio, and they’re letting it all out—starting with Wesam’s unhinged road rage stories, next a simple question "frozen or fresh?" that seemed to be the end of someone's world, then shifting into things that drive them mad in the industry. Including one moment of absolute fury: a "remoteless" TV that only works if one person in the room has the app. He brought that rage straight to acting class.
They also dive into some wild entertainment news, like the surprising rebrand efforts of a certain subscription platform once known for its adult content *cough* OnlyFans *cough*, and the mind-blowing number Bhad Bhabie made in her first month online. Let’s just say... it’s enough to question your career choices.
Acting. Outrage. Tech meltdowns. And million-dollar punchlines. Just another week in Wesam’s World.

Wesam is back with Episode 335 of Wesam’s World Podcast! This week, it’s just Wesam and Alex—so naturally, things get chaotic in the best way.
Wesam shares some of the craziest pranks he pulled off as a teenager (brace yourself), and the conversation spirals from there: how the world is starting to feel like real-life Hunger Games, the rise of Main Character Syndrome, and why you need more “no” people in your life—not just yes-men—if you actually want to stay grounded and grow.
They also take a moment to mourn the slow, painful death of cable TV, and reflect on how entertainment has evolved (for better or worse).
Laughter, hot takes, and unfiltered honesty—classic Wesam’s World.

Wesam is back for Episode 334 of Wesam’s World Podcast! And this week… things get delightfully off the rails.
Wesam and Alex are in the studio, joining after years in the wilderness, Peyton finally makes his return. The trio dives into some truly unhinged topics: Wesam’s recent restaurant meltdown that had him spiraling, a heated debate about the appropriate punishment for crimes (one includes a bobcat and a cage), and the moment Alex said something so unexpectedly funny that Wesam couldn’t hold it together.
No outline. No filter. Just friendship, chaos, and way too much laughter—welcome back to Wesam’s World.

Wesam is back with another all-new episode of Wesam’s World Podcast! This week, it’s just Wesam and producer Alex diving into some major industry topics, big plans, and of course… a little chaos.
They break down the latest industry news—including the possible impact of new tariffs on the film industry—why doing your own stunts is both impressive and a little insane, and Wesam’s upcoming acting plans with Anthony Mark Barrow (yes, the guy he constantly roasts and gets roasted by).
And in true Wesam’s World fashion, it all ends with a reminder that life’s better when you stay weird, laugh often, and don’t take things too seriously.
