85/ The Legacy of the Great Lebanon Famine (with Lina Mounzer and Timour Azhari)

This is my second conversation with Timour Azhari, a Beirut-based Lebanese journalist with Al Jazeera. I wanted to talk to Timour because few people are able to explain what’s happening in Lebanon with such clarity.  We went through the economic crisis and its political roots, the local and regional dimensions and how protesters and activists have  been reacting. We also spoke about how the average resident of Lebanon, both Lebanese and non-Lebanese (Ethiopian, Sudanese, Syrian etc), has been affected and what we could realistically expect to happen in the  coming weeks and months. The first episode was called: Lebanon’s October Uprising, Six Months Later (episode 8). You can follow the podcast on Twitter @FireTheseTimes.

8/Lebanon’s October Uprising, Six Months Later (with Timour Azhari)

"A volatile currency for volatile times" - Timour Azhari  When the banks become the volatile alternative, when your rights and control over what's in "your" bank account are a fleeting daydream, when the banks abuse your trust, take your money, and then try to sell it back to you; a volatile, independent, decentralized digital money, becomes that very thing that "puts your mind at ease." Everything is relative, and the world is an increasingly volatile place.  Don't miss this one!
