In the very first episode of the new Zeteo podcast, 'We're Not Kidding,' Mehdi and guest co-host Bassem Youssef sit down and talk about what their brown parents make of their career choices, becoming famous for the right reasons, pushing back against the media’s coverage of Gaza, and Mehdi’s new hoodie.
Those of us who work in healthcare often have a dark sense of humor. It comes in handy and we see a lot of pretty awful things. I saw that in Bassem right away! Wonderful interview (I’m watching it between patients) As always, well done Mehdi! More with Bassem please! ❤️
Awesome, very nice to know you Mehdi, I feel like I have a friend out there that screams what I want to scream, in this cruel world where every body is trying to cover up the crimes against humanity, your voice is a powerful demonstration that we, the people are here and not easily give up
Please continue your enterprise, people admire you for who you are and stand up for.
Very interesting .... I'd like more factual information about Israel's suppression of Gaza before October 7. Why is U.S. continuing to supply military aid? How can I, a grandmother, help the children?
Loved it!!! A few advice I would like to share, in order for us to support you guys more kindly tweak few features... Like let's say 5-10 second share video clip within this video for us to easily share on other platforms... And reference zeteo ... I would love to share some fascinating sentences stated in this video by both mehdi and baseem... The only way is to screen record and save to phone and then upload to Instagram.... If you can make some tool to easily do this with just hitting "share" that would be awesome!!! Also, having screen caption for our old school mothers or fathers to follow what your saying in their native language (speaking in English fast could be a little difficult for them to pick up) can also help. Like I can have my mom read urdu captions and understand how exactly our families are realizing that doctors, lawyer, engineers aren't the only profession, we need people in places like government, media, and schools to educate and the mindset needs to change ‼️
Dear Mehdi, BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO! for your ZETEO! My wife, Edie, and I are subscribers and please push forward with you fantastic ideas, podcasts and true journalism! We love what you are doing, as we have an "adopted
granddaughter, Shrouq Al Aila, in Gaza. We met Shrouq on the internet in 2014 when SATANIC Zionist Israel was bombing Gaza again. Shrouq kept us informed on what was happening as she was in university studying English. She had lost her Mom to cancer when Shrouq was nine and her father to a heart attack shortly after we became friends. We helped her with her tuition and spending money via Western Union. She earned a BA in English and went on to earn a MA in Journalism. We used to help her with her English papers via internet. Shrouq married several years ago and had a baby a year before October 7, 2023. But she lost her husband to the Satanic Zionist bombing and her home and was forced to flee to Rafah where she and little Dania are sharing an apartment with seven others. We are sending her money through international wire money transfer because she has no income. I share thius with you hoping you will do a show on what is happening to the more than one million Gazans crammed into Rafah--most of them in tents as Zionist Israel continues to bomb and massacre Gazans in Rafah and across Gaza. Please contact a journalist or two on the ground in Rafah. I'm sure Al Jazeera would help you make those contacts. Thanks again for what you are doing. Cheers! from Edie and Jim Michie, Baton Rouge Louisiana.
I already knew this would be great but this was even better then I thought. Very interesting and funny conversation. Looking forward to the next episode! And yes, Sammy Obeid would be a great guest.
With every new, high quality, informative podcast we are ever more thankful that you did not accept NBC's "catch and kill" sellout. We are spreading the word; thank you.
Love, love, love this! Huge fan of Bassem’s (fellow Egyptian so love and relate to his humor!) and was blessed to catch his show in Melbourne which was fabulous!
Mehdi you are funny and brilliant!
Together you are definitely a hit!
Keep up the amazing work - I’ve watched every interview - just need to catch up on the articles.
Netanyahu and many other zionist speakers with American and British accents can lie and still be accepted by most Western audiences. Some of the Arab and Muslim speakers struggling with the English language were disadvantaged even when speaking with facts. No more now. The likes of Mehdi and the comedy of Bassem and others are making a positive impact in challenging zionist and mainstream lies and spin. Brown and Muslim parents would soon realise that having a successful son or daughter in the Western media will be as good or even better than the medical or accounting profession.

Hey Mehdi, you gotta bring on Sammy Obeid!!!

Wow! Mehdi, wow you are one of the greatest gift to our community. What an incredible interview.
Hi Medhi.
IMHO you're doing your own thing is the best thing that could have happened
to both you and your followers.
What I would like to see more reporting on is the Zionist takeover of the West Bank
while the world is focused on Gaza.
Two prongs of the same Zionist project....:-(
An excellent and heart-warming watch! Thank you for all the work you all put into bringing our perspectives into the limelight.
