Gheed Saeed and Fatima Jaafar
Hey Arab Girl! Leave your shoes at the door and have a seat... you're in good company. This is 2 Arab Girls. We're your big sisters, your friends, your confidantes...and in this space, nothing is 3ib.

3 Arab Girls
Once upon a time, Gheed was a TikTok star. It had its ups and downs. But the big up is the friendships she formed. On this episode of 2 Arab Girls, we invite Sarah (aka @labn.eh on TikTok) to chat her dating horror stories. You're going to want to sit down for this episode.

How I Met Your Father
This episode is not a review of the cultural moment that is How I Met Your Father... although we'll always have a special place in our hearts for Hilary Duff. Whether your momma has told you, or your khalto spilled the tea, our parents have some pretty unique "meet cutes." If your parents are cousins... you're not alone. Let's stop lying about it! Our generation may not be trolling for a spouse at the family reunion but that doesn't mean we can't talk about the awkardness that is "How I Met Your Baba."
