Episode Synopsis

Today we dive into Iraq beyond the headlines โ€” the memories, the kitchens, the rivers, the art, the loss, and the love that survives across generations. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ถ๐Ÿ’›

Linda Dangoor shares her journey of growing up in Baghdad, leaving after the revolution, and rebuilding identity through art, food, and storytelling.
From the Tigris River ๐ŸŒŠ to life abroad, we explore the question:

Where is home, when home is no longer a place?

We talk:
โ€ข Childhood in Baghdad ๐Ÿก
โ€ข Family, language, and belonging ๐Ÿค
โ€ข The Tigris as memory ๐ŸŒŠ
โ€ข Diaspora, exile & identity ๐Ÿงณ
โ€ข Cooking as heritage & healing ๐Ÿฒ
โ€ข Mesopotamian art & clay culture ๐ŸŽจ
โ€ข Returning to yourself, wherever you are ๐ŸŒฑ

This conversation is emotional, cultural, human โ€” and real.

If youโ€™ve ever carried a country in your heart, this will resonate.
Stay to the end. Youโ€™ll feel this one. ๐Ÿค
