Bassem Youssef is a comedian, author and political commentator from Egypt who now lives in the United States. His shows have led many to call him “the Jon Stewart” of the Arab world.
Bassem Youssef joins Theo to chat about his journey from being a surgeon in Egypt to a comedian in America, how his political YouTube show got him kicked out of his home country, his perspective on the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict, understanding the viewpoint of Palestinians, grappling with the violence in the region, his ideas for a solution, and much more.
