“We Are the Ones Who Live Here” is an English-language podcast program about contemporary life in Lebanon, and all of our contributors are emerging Lebanese journalists, writers, storytellers and theatre artists.

This podcast is made of our voices, voices from all over this country, Lebanese, Palestinian, Syrian, immigrant and refugee voices, new voices telling stories about life in our country, life beyond the headlines, beyond the cliches.

Season One of “We Are the Ones Who Live Here” contains the work of 10 contributing writers, storytellers and journalists, 9 voice actors, and 17 people we interviewed about their lives. We’ve created a mix of interviews, monologues, reporting and poetry, backed by original music and field recordings. The five episodes of Season One are hosted by five women who live here.

This podcast is a joint American-Lebanese production, and our work is grounded in in-depth cross-cultural collaboration. Visit welebanonpod.com for more information.
