  • 18 - S2 E8: Radio Hosting & Friendships

    Hi guys,

    This episode Hani and I hit the Stu!!!

    We look back at our experience over the summer as Radio co-hosts and draw from what we've learnt and things we've taken from it. We also talk about the inevitable process of maintaining and losing friendships in your 20's. We wouldn't be Hani and Yas if we did not share anecdotal tales of our friendships over the years and share a few words of wisdom. 

     Give it a listen and let us know your thoughts. 

    As always, stay blessed and in good health x

  • 17 - S2 E7: Cambridge & Dictatorships

    Hello, my lovelies, In this episode Hani and I bring you along on our catch up session and talk about where we've been, our new obsessions as of late and play a little game that we call 'Under Our Dictatorship'; it's a lighthearted game where we discuss what stays and what goes. We put you on shows that we have been watching and look a little deeper into what shows like You and Maid on Netflix really mean. And lastly, we wouldn't be Yas and Hani if we didn't talk about current affairs in this episode.  Our recommendations:  Netflix shows: - Maid - You  - Hometown Cha Cha (Kdrama) Book: Brexitland by Maria Sobolewska and Robert W. Ford  As always I pray you guys are in the best of spirits and good health. Thank you for continuing to support us. - Y

  • 16 - S2 EP6: Rejection & Confidence Building

    Welcome back to another episode! What did you guys think about the intro?  This episode focuses on why we experience rejection, how it's affected us academically and personally, as well as discussing solutions. We offer advice not only from our personal experience but also from drawing on Islamic teachings. Please feel free to contact us if you want further elaborations on any of the points discussed, and we'll get back to you soon.  Hadith narrated by Umar Ibn Khattab: 'What has come to you could not miss you and that what has missed you could not come to you'. Sunan Abi Dawud 4699 N.B. A common quote known is 'What is destined for you will reach you even if it is beneath two mountains. What isn't destined for you won't reach you even if it is between your two lips' however, this is neither a Quranic ayah nor is it a Hadith. Simply a quote. Apologies for stating it as a Hadith! In Islam, it's important to show daleel (source) when quoting from the Quran or Hadith. This was an error on my part—apologies for that. Nonetheless, the Hadith corrected above still stands in what I was trying to articulate.  Hani's fav: The Opium War by Julia Lovett A Brand New Cherry Flavour The White Lotus

  • 15 - S2 E5: Modesty & Identity Through Fashion

    Hi my lovelies, In this episode Hani and I tackle what modesty means to us in today's society, we delve into our identity and how this shows up in our everyday style and aesthetics. We discuss fast fashion trends, timeless staple pieces and the return of y2k/street style as well as the importance of ethical consumption and ways to recycle clothes that you no longer want.  We hope this episode contributes to the wider debate on how to be environmentally more friendly and gets you thinking about how you can be more ethical when shopping and recycling your clothes.
