AjdnrjdooMerci, from SeattleLove the podcast! Now we all know we love the podcast because of his mom who is an incredible person and has the best energy, but this podcast is so unique and fun. I always look forward to another podcast from you two. Can’t wait for season 2!

Winged Elf GirlGreat American StoriesI appreciate this podcast deeply because me and most of my living family were born in the US, so I am ignorant about what it is to leave the culture you know. These interviews are both fun and entertaining, and inspiring and emotional (I’ve cried several times while listening). Tamer and Kity bring a lot of wisdom, and hearing all these different stories has really made me view the immigrant folks in my life as real superheroes. I teach Sunday school at a Christian church that hosts services in Spanish and Amharic, but all the kids come to the same kids area, so I get the privilege of meeting so many amazing, brave parents who came here to gain a better life for their kids. The stories I hear in this podcast give me just a little taste of what my friends have and are currently experiencing, so thank you so much for making it!!! 💖

diegohatesdrivingSimply AmazingThis podcast takes me a a wonderful trip anytime I listen to an episode. If you’re an immigrant you must listen to this podcast, if you’re not an immigrant, you must listen to this podcast. Nothing but love and appreciation to Tamer and Kity.

sirena_serpentineAwesome pod!I discovered Tamer Kattan pod through one of my fav pods “Ready Set Blow” and I am so thankful!

You won’t be disappointed :)

Dontbelievemeaskthedishes5/5An unreal level of connection to these two. Tamer is the brother I never had. Kity is the mom I wish I had and the brown female role model I hope to be for young girls. They bring you in and make you feel like family, they share pain and laughter and there is so much love between the hosts and their guests every week. I’m so happy I found this podcast.

Melbell23045Amazing StoriesThere’s nothing more American than people sharing their stories and this podcast is just that. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious, but always enlightening. Tamer and Kity bring a much needed perspective in an truly interesting and unique way. I really love this podcast and hope it will spread the mentality that immigrant stories ARE American stories.
-
MunkfuncleGreat pod!I love this podcast. Tamer’s comedy and story telling is great, and you don’t wanna mess with his momma, Kity. She is a boss and a great cohost.

Two headed meowRealism & Optimism Coexisting PerfectlyKity and Tamer and everyone they bring on make me feel so much hope for the future as well as the present. This is one of my favorite podcasts ever because of the artful combination of realism and optimism. Got word from Daily Zeitgeist and am so glad i found a way to learn the stories of other people without getting depressed but still acknowledging the problems we face. Recommend for anyone looking to expand their empathetic capacity as well as burnt out everyday activists looking for peace while we learn stuff ♥️
-
kcpvbListen to ALL of them!I just found this and I’m binging it. The guests are amazing and their stories are beautiful. But... mostly... Kity (from Texas 😉) is my hero.

cope2019InspiringI love the relationship that you have with your mom. This is a great podcast.
-
Kellie LowderIncredibleI just found the podcast and cried about 10 times in the first episode. Absolutely amazing job by both you and your mom. Can’t wait to hear the rest of the episodes and hoping this changes the hearts and minds of the anti-immigration crowd. The hardest working people I’ve known in my life are immigrants. Keep up the incredible work!

EABowmanThey Tried to Bury UsA podcast whose episodes you may well want to listen to over and over So grateful to hear this interviews and learn more about Tamer and his marvelous mama—extraordinary human she is! Keep up the good work and introducing us to richness of immigrant experience

LibrarianStebbsImmigration stories that make you proud to be an AmericanThis is such a beautiful podcast. Tamer and his mother Kity have a loving, playful chemistry and are so warm towards their guests. The stories they and their guests share and the insights they each have are incredibly healing, even for those who aren’t recent immigrants! I used to listen to Maeve In America, but it stopped updating in spring 2017. I follow the USCIS Instagram, but it’s not quite the same as hearing someone’s story. I love hearing immigration stories because nothing makes me prouder to be an American than seeing the incredible journeys that bring people to the US, so I am incredibly grateful for this podcast. Thank you, Kity and Tamer, for this podcast. ❤️

RMVioletThank you both1000% Recommend for basically everyone. I found this podcast through Ethnically Ambiguous and I'm so glad I did. Thank you to the hosts and guests for sharing so much of themselves and their stories. This podcast really truly does what it says on the box and fosters cross cultural empathy and understanding.

queentainaLooking forward to moreI binged this podcast last night. I love it because Tamer and his mom both have such a loving outlook toward the world.

Andy SharabiPowerful Podcast. An eye into the reality of our true AmericaThis has quickly become my new favorite weekly listen! In the first 2 episodes alone I cried, laughed, and learned. You get the opportunity to sit in and listen to the stories of amazing people from all all over the world sharing their courageous journey to the United States and what it took to start a new life here. The host Tamer Kattan does an incredible job interviewing and connecting with his guests, he cohosts the show with this charming mom who has an amazing story herself. Thank you for putting out such powerful, important, and real content! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

SharabiYahelAmazing stories from amazing immigrants!As an immigrant myself, It’s beautiful to hear all the stories from the people that make this country great. What I learned from this podcast is that the diversity of this country is also our strength. Thank you for making this podcast. I love Tamer, I’m obsessed with Kity!!
-
pochojoeHonest and personalI’m a fan of Tamer’s stand-up and this show is just as personal. This time, though, he allows others to open up. It leads to some really genuine unscripted moments.
-
SLPodcastFanFinally a great podcast about immigrant lifeMan I was just looking around but your first episode about your mom's experience wih her sister is super touching. I was really crying. Also the Chinese comedian guy one is pretty sad & funny at the same time.
-
MbpasClose to my heartAs a child and grandchild of immigrants, this podcast has seriously touched my heart. Hearing Tamer’s mother talk about her life and how she came to America, was like listening to a relative of mine talk about their struggles of coming here. But my personal bias aside, THIS podcast is going to unite ALL Americans. People from all walks of life are going to hear these stories and hopefully change their views of immigrants and it’s going to bring people together. When something is created with love and passion like this podcast, it drives a special force of positivity and love and it’s exactly what this world desperately needs. Thank you Tamer!

nicholasmmortonepic and intimateEach epic journey hinges on a series of small, personal moments that are at once intimate and universal. There is so much strenght here and vulnerability, too. These are great stories.

Foreign FrankMuch needed in times like these.Tamer Kattan is a huge inspiration, not just as a comedian, but also as a person. One of the few thought provoking humorists around right now. No wonder his mother is such an amazing person too. Totally recommended podcast to listen in times like the ones we are living right now.

WallylarissIncredible and Important.This is the podcast of the year for me & I am so happy it exists. It has everything: it's vulnerable, brave, inspirational --- to say this podcast is simply humanizing something that is so often villanized, is an understatement. Couldn't recommend and support more.

JMonfaredBeautifulSo glad to have found this podcast! As a history teacher and someone who is going through the immigration process (and travel ban) to bring my husband to the US, I so appreciate hearing these inspirational stories. Tamar’s mother is a true wonder and inspiration!
-
TCO Is The BestHeartwarming And EngagingI love this podcast! You'll be hooked from the first one, where Tamer's mom, Kity, describes - with incredible bravery - her life in Cairo and how she and her family left Egypt for the United States decades ago. The podcast's guests offer thought-provoking stories told with integrity and a little humor. You'll love it, too.
