Hello, see-something fam. I'm Amadale Yuckber here with some updates. So currently I'm working on a

Ms. Marvel miniseries, taking a deep dive at the TV show. I'll release that next year, but I have some good

stuff now to share with you, too. I am so excited to share with you the first episode of my

brand new podcast, Radio Lingo, a collaboration between crooked media and duo lingo.

This show investigates all the ways that language shapes our world and how our world shapes

language. Each episode introduces a new way of looking at the impact of language across

our lives, our relationships, our culture, and much more. Exploring topics from cursing

to subtitling. This episode is about my name and the challenges with

getting people to pronounce it, Ameth. I hope you have as much fun listening to this episode as I

did making it. To find more episodes, be sure to follow and subscribe to Radio Lingo wherever you get

your podcasts. Okay, now let's get into the episode. Enjoy. Why did you name me, Amat?

On your mother's side, most of the men's name

started with Ahmed. If their name, just to use an example, was Atar, they would be named

Ahmed Atar Usmani. So that is where we took Ahmed from. This is my father, Wahid Akbar.

He immigrated to the United States from Pakistan in the 70s with my late mother.

So have you heard how other people say my name?

When you were born, we were concerned how your name is going to be pronounced differently by different people.

How do you say my name?

Ahmed.

I say Ahmed.

Ahmed.

It's an easy name to say for me.
