Each week, Lebanese writer Joey Ayoub brings you conversations at the intersection of politics, history, philosophy, culture, science, and all the fun stuff in between. It is a project born out of my conviction that doing so requires an interdisciplinary and intersectional approach to understanding our complex world. Named after the James Baldwin book 'The Fire Next Time', this is a podcast about tackling the 21st century. To subscribe and get exclusive perks: patreon.com/firethesetimes Cover art by Wenyi Geng.
