Guest conversations
One guest, one long table. Scientists, founders, farmers, poets, judges — Amazigh and not — who have thought hard about how to live.
Solo essays
Once a month I talk alone for half an hour about one idea I cannot put down — exile, boredom, ambition, prayer without belief.
Reading sessions
Quarterly. We read one short text slowly, out loud, together — a chapter of Marcus Aurelius, a Mammeri poem, a page of Weil.
Know someone who should be on the show?
Especially if they would never suggest themselves.
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.
