Welcome to the Dear Lovejoy podcast and it's a special.

Today's conversation is with Sardia Asmat. She is a stand-up comic. She also has a successful podcast called No Country for Young Women.

I thoroughly enjoyed her company. We discuss a lot about being a Muslim and it's kind of topical because of what Boris Johnson has been saying recently in the press.

Though we must point out that we'd booked her ages ago but she kindly discussed it with us.

And I learned a lot.

It was great, wasn't it?

I learned a lot. Yes. I learned a lot. And what great, wasn't it? I learned a lot.

Yes.

I learned a lot.

And what I learned is more people like Sadiah on TV as well to educate us, I suppose, and to let us know.

There is very little representation.

We were talking about, won't we?

She turns on the

telly and it's always old it's always old of imams and things for shouting and actually she's such

good fun such great company great company great fun and she bought us a present oh first guest

who's bought us a present yeah a loud present tim yeah, Tim. Oh, yeah, because I kept eating it.

Apologies for that.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll thoroughly enjoy this.

Here she is, Sardia Azma.

This is just a guide to modern life.

Modern life is hard to get just right.

It can frustrate you and annoy it and if it does write into dear love joy
