Sina is the creator and host of The East is a Podcast, a show that focuses a critical lens on the history of the present of the modern Middle East and North Africa, featuring interviews with experts and archival mashups. his twitter: @urorientalist

Sina completed his Ph.D. in Comparative Literature at UCLA. He is a translator, scholar, and writer. His work has been published in the PMLA, Iranian Studies, boundary 2, Radical History Review, and Public Books. He does this podcast in his spare time, of which he has plenty. He has never gone fishing.

Needless to say, his podcast is really dope and a great source of info on West Asia and what is going on in this terrible world in general, from an anti imperialist perspective. Well worth doing a deep dive, he has a lot of excellent guests and his rants are always on point. He also helps produce a number of other quality leftist podcasts, Red Nation with Nick Estes, Office Hours with Adam Hussian (of Rev Left Radio), and many others.

In our discussion we talk about Iran, ofc, the concept of Kayfabe, how Americans are the most propagandized ppl on the planet, media, social media platforms in the West, how podcasting has changed in the 8 years he's been doing his podcast, and more. Sina is the man and was very appreciative of his time and perspective. Go check his interviews and guests at www.eastpodcast.com - you will definitely learn something.

STARK REALITY Episode 85 Guest SINA RAHMANI of "The East Is A Podast"

For Episode 84 of STARK REALITY, Host James Dier aka DJ $mall ¢hange rolls the tattered red carpet out to Ridgewood, Queens to interview his friend Selam aka DJ Miss Hap

Selam has been slaying it around Brooklyn and NYC for a decade; great DJ and digger who has deep crates in reggae, disco, soul, and a number of genres. And of course has excellent politics which is why she has been someone he's wanted to interview for a min now. They talk about a number of tings, DJing in NYC these days, working at a record shop (shouts to Record City in BK), ICE arrests, Palestine, the worthless Democratic Party aka controlled opposition, some favorite records like the Love Joys LP on Wackies, etc etc.

Slight delay getting this out since it was recorded on Oct 20th of 2025 so apologies for that. An excellent conversation though so hope you enjoy - cheers!

STARK REALITY Episode 84 Guest DJ MISS HAP aka SELAM

Episode 8 of INSPIRATION/INFORMATION finds Host Imran Mirza of BlueInGreen Radio in conversation with London-based guitarist, composer, producer and band leader GREG SANDERS.  Having helmed two full-length releases from his new quartet, Lophae (“lo-fi”), as well as having produced Holly Holden’s ‘al andar’ album, 2025 proved to be an exceptionally busy and successful year for Greg.  Having established his phenomenal credentials via expansive jazz ensemble Teotima and their two scintillating full-lengths ('Counting the Ways' and 'Weightless'), Sanders has continued to amass acclaim as a key collaborator for vocalist Juanita Euka, Jonny Wickham and Billy Marrows, amongst a litany of other artists.  His penchant for Latin-infused contemporary jazz has yielded some sensational projects which now trickles down to the incredible Lophae albums in ‘Perfect Strangers’ and ‘Imagine More’.

In line with our typical three-question Inspiration/Information format, we have some excellent discussion points for this episode as we delve into Greg’s first concert experience, discuss the song he wishes he had written and fully unpack which three artists would comprise his dream band.

To explore music from Lophae, please visit the band’s Bandcamp page www.lophae.bandcamp.com
