Previous Episode: We've got news!

We asked you, our listeners what you wanted to hear next, and you said, “Baklava!”. So our team competed against each other to find the best baklava story:

[03:55] Hebah’s Story: Harissat Al Halaby

[18:35] Alex’s Story: The World’s Largest Baklava

[33:50] Dana’s Story: Mama’s (Burnt) Baklava

Thanks to SceneEats for gifting this episode's winner with a Nespresso Machine. Thank you to Yahia El Halaby, Nihal, Muharrem Tuna, Fatih Akpinar, Dana’s lovely mom, Ghada, and to Hallie Davison, our listener and friend who suggested the baklava theme for this competition in the first place.

This episode was produced by Hebah Fisher, Dana Ballout and Alex Atack. Alex had production and translation support in Turkey from Dilara Çelik. Sound design by Mohamed Khreizat. Kerning Cultures is a Kerning Cultures Network production.
