What if you don’t fully belong anywhere?
Host Doni Brasco sits down with London Ki Lali and Samir Mahat for a brutally honest conversation on identity and belonging.
From being questioned for embracing a culture that isn’t “yours” to being treated like an outsider by your own people, this episode exposes the reality of living between two worlds. Why is your identity always up for debate? And who really gets to decide where you belong?
Raw. Unfiltered. Uncomfortable.

Ramadan means something different to everyone, but who decides what is “right”?
In this powerful conversation, we explore the true significance of Ramadan beyond routine and ritual. From personal fasting struggles to community judgment, from modern faith to cultural expectations, we unpack what it really means to practice Islam in today’s world. 
We talk about parenting in multicultural societies, navigating belief in a digital age, and finding the balance between staying rooted and evolving with the times. Most importantly, we reflect on how compassion and understanding can shape a more inclusive Ramadan experience.
This is not just about fasting. It is about faith, identity, and the space we give each other to grow.
