Episode description

This week we're joined by award winning TV & radio presenter Aasmah Mir. Aasmah presents BBC Radio 4's Saturday Live and a brand new podcast A.I.B.U with Lucy Porter. In this episode we explore identity and find out how Aasmah relates to both sides of her identity being Scottish with Pakistani parents. Aasmah opens up about what life was like as a young brown girl from Bearsden and how she embraced her Pakistani heritage through food. From haggis samosas, big phat Scottish Asian weddings to the best way to pronounce the word poem. Plus an important discussion on whether it's right to marry someone just because they have a Scottish accent?! Hope you enjoy this hilarious yet heartfelt exploration of life as a Scottish South Asian.
