"As my people say, Dayenu (that would have been enough) but I also have to tip my hat to Ms. Khan, who is an expert interviewer. Ms. Khan was hanging tough throughout the interview to the point where Mr. Arablouei stopped multiple times to compliment her and even suggested he was going to steal one of her questions. That, dear readers, is the mark of a good host. Really, for an independent podcast, this is without a doubt as good of a show as you’re going to get."

"This empathetic approach is clear in each episode. The episodes strike the right balance of seriousness and light-heartedness. These conversations break down barriers and offer new perspectives of recent immigrants from countries outside of the United States. “Immigrantly” strives to create a space where new stories can be told."

"Immigrantly is hopeful. At the end of the show, when Khan asks her guest to describe America in a word or phrase, some reply “potential” or “in flux”. This podcast is a reminder that even when the U.S. feels like such a divisive culture, many people are here for a reason and working to make it an even better place to be."
