Keep it independent.
No network, no investors, no dynamic ads reading your location back to you. Igiwer N’ufrak is paid for by listeners — a few dollars a month keeps every episode free for everyone else.
Covers your seat: hosting, transcription and the software that makes the archive searchable.
Give $3 / monthYour seat plus a guest’s travel now and then. Early ad-free episodes and the quarterly zine as a thank-you.
Give $9 / monthNot into subscriptions? A single gift of any size goes straight into the next season.
Give onceWhere the money goes
Roughly 40% hosting, transcription and editing tools; 35% paying guests’ travel and the occasional fixer; 15% the zine’s print run; 10% coffee, which is non-negotiable. Annual numbers are posted here every January.
Can't give? These help just as much.
- Tell one person who is deciding what a free life is for
- Leave a review wherever you listen — it genuinely moves the algorithm
- Gift the eBook to someone instead of a birthday card
- Suggest a guest who would never suggest themselves

The shop’s “Name in the book” tier is a donation with your name printed in the next edition.
A podcast and a book about meaning, exile, and the quiet courage of a free life — told through philosophy, books, and Amazigh voices who carried their mountains into the world.
