[50a] Best of "Hey! That's My Hummus!" Vol. 2




Hey! Thats My Hummus! show

Summary: We've hit the 50 show mark! Woo hoo! And since we've made it to that point, we're taking a quick break this week -- no new show. However, we're re-packaging an old show. Well, two, actually. We've taken segments from two of our earlier shows (from all the way back in 2011) and repackaged them. Why? Because it's a great way to hear us talk about topics which fascinated us back then (and still do now.) Our first segment is from April 2011 -- we talked about "Whitewashing Hollywood," which is what happens when a white actor plays the part of an ethnic character. It's one of the best kinds of segments -- which are the ones where Faiqa and Shiny vehemently disagree. And then we move to the end of last summer -- when we had a story about a woman who was in the middle of a controversy when she was denied access to an amusement park ride because she was wearing a hijab. We talked about our own outward religious/cultural identities -- as well as our own theme park experiences. Even if you've heard these before -- listen again! Nostalgia is cool.
