S1E12 - Sabuhi from Azerbaijan

For this episode, I had the privilege of hearing from Sabuhi about his country Azerbaijan. Personally, I knew very little about Azerbaijan other than that Baku is its capital. We were not really sure if that has to do with my lack of effort or a poor coverage in Western media, or perhaps both. What do you think?

Regardless, our talk shed a whole new light on this Caucasian and former Soviet country. By now I am familiar with why most Muslim Azerbaijanis drink alcohol but don’t eat pork, why it is no coincidence that the country brings forth so many strong judokas and chess players and why Turkey and Azerbaijan always award each other twelve points during the Eurovision Song Contest.
