<v Speaker 1>him to stay in the country.

11
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:29.679

<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

42
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.319
<v Speaker 1>And the one and so that's when we talked to you,

43
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:44.000
<v Speaker 1>was when the end of those ten months were coming up, correct,

44
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:45.680
<v Speaker 1>because we were trying to figure.

45
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:48.120
<v Speaker 3>Out why you couldn't stay. And then we learned that

46
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:49.599
<v Speaker 3>iHeart wouldn't sponsor you.

47
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, or any company, honestly, any company. I've applied to

48
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 2>so many places, and okay, but how about the one

49
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:56.159
<v Speaker 2>you were working at? Right?

50
00:01:56.920 --> 00:02:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, Well, what other places are you going to ask? Well, well,

51
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:03.079
<v Speaker 1>you know what, there's a CC's Pizza down the rock Pike,

52
00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:03.879
<v Speaker 1>I'll ask them.

53
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm just doing sponsor you right, yeah, no, I just

54
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:07.799
<v Speaker 2>don't want to slowly blame.

55
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:12.159
<v Speaker 3>But if a company is going to sponsor you, it

56
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:13.400
<v Speaker 3>would be the one you're working for.

57
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Of course they need to Yeah, I get to know.

58
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:17.439
<v Speaker 1>I can't just no. If not, you may as well

59
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.039
<v Speaker 1>just go knock on door. You may as well go

60
00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:21.599
<v Speaker 1>next door to Mervis and ask you although you know

61
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:22.319
<v Speaker 1>what that idea.

62
00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:23.080
<v Speaker 3>You don't want to.

63
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 5>If you don't want to blame my heart, this is

64
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:28.400
<v Speaker 5>the wrong show. Have you heard the host?

65
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 3>Why? Yeah? No, But I mean it's fine, and you asked.

66
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.400
<v Speaker 2>I think, oh, yeah, for sure. I do want to

67
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:37.879
<v Speaker 2>mention that they tried. You know, people here, Alison, they tried.

68
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 3>There's a work visa. Well you say they tried. Do

69
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:42.360
<v Speaker 3>you think they tried hard enough?

70
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:45.080
<v Speaker 2>At least they give it, They gave it a shot.

71
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know when I worked at PetSmart, they

72
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:50.080
<v Speaker 2>made it clear from the beginning, we don't do sponsorships

73
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:51.599
<v Speaker 2>right where like.

74
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:59.039
<v Speaker 1>When you apply name Joseph, who wait, we don't know, No.

75
00:02:59.560 --> 00:02:59.960
<v Speaker 3>That's hard.

76
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:01.439
<v Speaker 5>Policy is racial profile.

77
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:06.360
<v Speaker 2>I do want to make it clear that when you

78
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:08.319
<v Speaker 2>come here as a student, your sole purpose should be

79
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:10.319
<v Speaker 2>to be a student. When you come here as a tourist.

80
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:11.840

84
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>live here because that you want to live here. No,

85
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.360
<v Speaker 2>that means you're showing intent. And the last thing you

86
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.120
<v Speaker 2>want to do is show intent that no. No, But

87
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:28.919
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying you would like to stay. Yes, you

00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:37.079
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

114
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I tried two different years, two different schools, and it

115
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>didn't work out. So I put myself through Mason to

116
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:42.800
<v Speaker 2>get a certificate.

117
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:43.759
<v Speaker 3>Wait, what is that?

118
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:47.360
<v Speaker 2>It's just a one year It's kind of like a

119
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:51.759
<v Speaker 2>condensed condensed, compressed degree, so right, it just takes less time,

120
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:54.399
<v Speaker 2>it's cheaper less classes. So I did that for a

121
00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:56.680
<v Speaker 2>year right after my art job, and then that ended,

122
00:04:56.759 --> 00:04:58.639
<v Speaker 2>so that was time for me to leave. And then

123
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:03.000

00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.160
<v Speaker 5>you'd be upset. You want them to live with you forever.

156
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:32.519
<v Speaker 3>Yes, but it's a little bit. Have you seen your parents.

157
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:34.279
<v Speaker 1>And not other than when you went back to renew

158
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:35.879
<v Speaker 1>your Kuwaiti visa.

159
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:38.680
<v Speaker 2>That was the last time you haven't seen when? How

160
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:39.480
<v Speaker 2>long ago was that?

161
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:42.240
<v Speaker 3>Four years ago? You haven't seen your parents in four years?

162
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:44.319
<v Speaker 2>My dad, my mom, and sister were in town two years.

163
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:48.639
<v Speaker 4>Ago, Okay, two years back off, Still a long time.

164
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:50.000
<v Speaker 3>That's a long time though.

165
00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:53.199
<v Speaker 2>I am very very close to all of my family aunts, uncles,

166
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 2>cousins from both sides of the family and so yes,

167
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:57.560
<v Speaker 2>and at this point I've lost all my grandparents. But

168
00:06:58.040 --> 00:06:59.319
<v Speaker 2>I do want to make it clear that we did

169
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:00.399
<v Speaker 2>you lose them the time?

170
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Did you? Did you lose them while you were here?

171
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:05.199
<v Speaker 2>Two of them? Yes, and then two have gone.

172
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:07.399
<v Speaker 3>Like a long time ago. The two that died while

173
00:07:07.399 --> 00:07:07.839
<v Speaker 3>you were here.

174
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Did you go backs make me feel guilty?

175
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:13.000
<v Speaker 3>No, I didn't because it wasn't let me back in that.

176
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.920
<v Speaker 5>Jones was going to mention that and stirred up for that.

177
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:23.720
<v Speaker 2>That's his only role away sitting here. Joseph's life story.

178
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:27.879
<v Speaker 2>My mom's mom passed during COVID So this is you

179
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:29.160

<v Speaker 3>Oh for the for your certificate.

184
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:42.040
<v Speaker 2>And the sad part is that she asked a lot

185
00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:44.759
<v Speaker 2>about me apparently really and was like when is he

186
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:45.560
<v Speaker 2>coming back to work?

187
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:50.199
<v Speaker 3>So that well, very sad pretty soon. The now what

188
00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:51.639
<v Speaker 3>during the time that you were here?

189
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:55.800
<v Speaker 1>The but then remind me, like, your dad owns a

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I can't complain.

193
00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:09.240
<v Speaker 3>The does it have a rooftop pool? What was Kristin

194
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:12.680

197
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.040
<v Speaker 3>a beach there is. I wouldn't even call it a pool.

198
00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.439
<v Speaker 3>What why why did your dad have the apartment here?

199
00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:30.399
<v Speaker 2>His dad got it for him around seventy eight when

200

<v Speaker 2>he was a student here. Oh okay, yeah, so that's why.

201
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:35.480
<v Speaker 2>And then different family members have been using the fat

00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:38.240
<v Speaker 2>throughout the years, right the nineties when you're can be

205
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:44.960
<v Speaker 2>did a PhD right before my time here, and she.

<v Speaker 2>more times.

226
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:46.399
<v Speaker 3>Olive Garden.

227
00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:49.879
<v Speaker 4>You do it before you live, leave the country.

228
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:52.919
<v Speaker 1>When you when you think of the stuff that you've

229
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:54.320
<v Speaker 1>done here over nine years?

230
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:56.039
<v Speaker 3>What where is what like?

231
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:59.279
<v Speaker 1>What what rises to the top other than get an education?

232
00:09:59.320 --> 00:09:59.519
<v Speaker 3>Off?

233
00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:01.279
<v Speaker 2>I was just in to say my first answer should

234
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:04.360
<v Speaker 2>be a degree. But concerts as a music clever and

235
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:06.200
<v Speaker 2>a kid, a little boy, and Quid who grew up,

236
00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:08.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, listening to Brittany and I never ended in

237
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:10.519
<v Speaker 2>a million years think that I would get to see that.

238
00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:11.799
<v Speaker 2>So that means the world to me. I know it's

239
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:14.440
<v Speaker 2>not something silly, but we don't have that back home.

240
00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:16.840
<v Speaker 3>So there's no, there's no. I've never been to Kuwait.

241
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:19.440
<v Speaker 2>We got Arab pop stars coming in, right, but their

242
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:21.440
<v Speaker 2>family is regional. It's not international, you know.

243
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:25.320
<v Speaker 1>So there's like Aerosmith's never playing no Kuwait.

244
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:27.720
<v Speaker 2>Although Jala is coming to abudabulated this month and I'll

245
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:28.399
<v Speaker 2>be there.

246
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:34.120
<v Speaker 1>But okay, but that that's Abu Dhabi, right, Yeah, that's fine.

247
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I understand an hour and a half. Yeah no no,

248
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:40.120
<v Speaker 1>but I get that. But to Kuwait specifically, nothing.

249
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:40.320
<v Speaker 3>No, no.

250
00:10:40.559 --> 00:10:44.039
<v Speaker 2>With the exception of Arab stars, yeah no international wow.

251
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:45.519
<v Speaker 3>So I get that.

252
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:49.080
<v Speaker 1>And and and Joseph any anytime there was gonna be

253
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:51.799
<v Speaker 1>like somebody like a band at the station, Yoseph would

254
00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:52.120
<v Speaker 1>come up.

255
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:54.600
<v Speaker 3>But I get that. You love music and so a

256
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.919
<v Speaker 3>chance to be around it is great, all rights? What else?

257
00:10:56.960 --> 00:11:00.000
<v Speaker 2>What else other than cause it's people? I mean, I'm

258
00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:02.559
<v Speaker 2>that sounds kind of cheesy, but people everybody have met here,

259
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.919
<v Speaker 2>and also the general lifestyle. Something as simple as hopping

260
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 2>on the Metro and going to the grocery store like

261
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:13.519
<v Speaker 2>brings me joy, whereas in Quit like driving lunatics are everywhere.

262
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's car accidents every single out of the day.

263
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:18.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't even like driving. So just yeah, the basics,

264
00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:19.799
<v Speaker 2>honestly so.

265
00:11:19.919 --> 00:11:22.080
<v Speaker 1>But you could get in a car and go to

266
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:23.120
<v Speaker 1>a grocery store.

267
00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:25.799
<v Speaker 2>No I can't. Yeah for sure. Yeah. I got my

268
00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:27.759
<v Speaker 2>license in Quid before I got it here. But it's

269
00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:31.159
<v Speaker 2>just did you get a license? Did you use your

270
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.240
<v Speaker 2>KUWAITI one, No. If you're a student or a work visa,

271
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:38.519
<v Speaker 2>I think it's required for you to have a local

272
00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:41.919
<v Speaker 2>Oh really yeah, if I'm not mistaken, international works, if

273
00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:43.519
<v Speaker 2>your international license works.

274
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.080
<v Speaker 1>If you're a tourist, right yeah, if you're just visiting, yeah, yeah,

275
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.360
<v Speaker 1>no that I get that. I get What is there

276
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:50.519
<v Speaker 1>anything you did where you were like, yeah, I probably

277
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:53.679
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't have done that. I'm thinking of something very specific

278
00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:55.159
<v Speaker 1>for you.

279
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:58.720
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead. Please, didn't you get like your nuts waxed?

280
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:03.200
<v Speaker 2>That did happen? I was thinking of sending this audio

281
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:03.840
<v Speaker 2>Cliff to my parents.

282
00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:06.879
<v Speaker 5>But so much for that?

283
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:12.759
<v Speaker 3>Would they be We will edit it.

284
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:14.919
<v Speaker 2>It's a very taboo subject where I'm from. But we

285
00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:16.440
<v Speaker 2>don't talk about that stuff.

286
00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:18.000
<v Speaker 3>Wait, you don't talk about like your penis?

287
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh for sure?

288
00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:26.399
<v Speaker 3>Not No, the penis, Elliott, you know this? Why why

289
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:27.200
<v Speaker 3>would I know that?

290
00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:29.120
<v Speaker 4>It's a very conservative society.

291
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:33.200
<v Speaker 1>No, I understand it's conservative publicly, but but in your

292
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:37.639
<v Speaker 1>own house, I think it should be Yeah something, I mean, listen,

293
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:43.519
<v Speaker 1>I can vouch that your mom and dad have had sex. Yeah, exactly, exactly,

294
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.559
<v Speaker 1>so I would think publicly like there's probably not a

295
00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:50.279
<v Speaker 1>radio host in kuwait asking about your your testicles?

296
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:53.799
<v Speaker 3>But the but no, I but behind closed doors?

297
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:55.600
<v Speaker 2>I agree?

298
00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:56.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, thank you?

299
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:00.200
<v Speaker 5>But so where does that agreeing as an agent of change?

300
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 5>He's not agreeing it goes on.

301
00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:05.120
<v Speaker 3>No, he's agreeing it goes on behind closed doors.

302
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.159
<v Speaker 2>Yes, sure that was convincing.

303
00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but was that was that up there with the

304
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:17.000
<v Speaker 1>things where you were like, I don't ever need to

305
00:13:17.039 --> 00:13:17.600
<v Speaker 1>do that again.

306
00:13:17.720 --> 00:13:21.080
<v Speaker 2>That was the most painful experience ever. I'm not exaggerating

307
00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:24.919
<v Speaker 2>it felt. Did you end up doing that? You know,

308
00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:27.360
<v Speaker 2>no one's seen me naked. It wasn't someone asked me

309
00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:29.000
<v Speaker 2>to do it. You know, I'm not sleep figure out

310
00:13:29.039 --> 00:13:31.600
<v Speaker 2>it was just for me hygienic purposes. I just want

311
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:34.080
<v Speaker 2>to try it, right, So I just went ahead and

312
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:39.600
<v Speaker 2>it was just the one time thing, yolo, right. I

313
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:42.759
<v Speaker 2>guess maybe I was trying to rebel in some way.

314
00:13:42.799 --> 00:13:45.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know against what internally of just my situation

315
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:46.879
<v Speaker 2>of wanting to say or can't.

316
00:13:47.200 --> 00:13:47.559
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

317
00:13:47.559 --> 00:13:48.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what it is.

318
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:49.960
<v Speaker 4>You know what doing something a little crazy?

319
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:54.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I want to stay. I can't watch this get

320
00:13:54.080 --> 00:14:01.320
<v Speaker 3>rid of my hair? Wait, but did you just say?

321
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:03.720
<v Speaker 3>Was that the first person that has seen you.

322
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Naked other than doctors? Yeah?

323
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 3>Wow, Oh that's right.

324
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:10.639
<v Speaker 1>Did we want you to hook up with Casey also

325
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:12.120
<v Speaker 1>as part of the marriage.

326
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:14.320
<v Speaker 2>She's like my sister.

327
00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:21.679
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it was just about consummation. Legally it was important.

328
00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:26.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm going to miss you like christ Yes, I

329
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:28.279
<v Speaker 1>hate that you're I hate that you're leaving.

330
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:29.279
<v Speaker 3>I wish you could stay.

331
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.559
<v Speaker 2>I never asked for this chapter ten, you know, but

332
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:33.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm kind of being forced out of it. But life

333
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 2>is unpredictable. We can't expect and assume things. So I've

334
00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:37.480
<v Speaker 2>accepted reality.

335
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:39.080
<v Speaker 1>So what do you do when you get back there,

336
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>what are you going to do other than JLO.

337
00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:43.960
<v Speaker 3>Well that's the only thing I currently have.

338
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:46.679
<v Speaker 4>That the only thing on my schedule right now.

339
00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:49.679
<v Speaker 2>No, but like so when you get back to search, which,

340
00:14:49.679 --> 00:14:51.720
<v Speaker 2>by the way, I have been applying for months now.

341
00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:54.240
<v Speaker 2>It's just things are not run remotely back home. You

342
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:56.639
<v Speaker 2>need in person attendance, Like you can't just sit home

343
00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:57.399
<v Speaker 2>and apply on line.

344
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:00.399
<v Speaker 3>No, there's no, there's no like LinkedIn or we do

345
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:00.960
<v Speaker 3>have LinkedIn.

346
00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:02.200
<v Speaker 2>It's just I don't even know why they put the

347
00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:04.120
<v Speaker 2>job positions if they're not going to hire that way

348
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:08.320
<v Speaker 2>and quit. Unfortunately, if you don't have connections, if you

349
00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:11.200
<v Speaker 2>don't have a very strong reference of someone working in

350
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:13.720
<v Speaker 2>the company, you're likely to not just not get the job.

351
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh really, yeah, you do need to know someone. I

352
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:18.960
<v Speaker 2>don't want to batmanth my country though I do.

353
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:22.080
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, But that doesn't sound that you're just

354
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:25.200
<v Speaker 1>sounds like you're just saying that's how it works. That's okay, Yeah,

355
00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:28.039
<v Speaker 1>what is the what is the like? What kind of job?

00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:31.960
<v Speaker 1>like time? What kind of job are you trying to get?

358
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:35.879
<v Speaker 2>My main passion and interest is the entertainment world media,

359
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:39.360
<v Speaker 2>whether it's film, television, radio, behind the scenes obviously, I

360
00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:40.480
<v Speaker 2>don't want to like, oh no.

<v Speaker 3>jockey in Kuwait?

363
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:45.919
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, No, I don't like the spotlight. I don't

364
00:15:45.960 --> 00:15:52.960
<v Speaker 2>like public speaking. You know, well you guys do ignore it?

365
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:58.559
<v Speaker 3>Good so but do they? But but there's radio, there

366
00:15:58.639 --> 00:15:59.679
<v Speaker 3>is TV we do.

367
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:02.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna apply there. Not that I haven't

368
00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:03.360
<v Speaker 2>tried yet, but yeah.

<v Speaker 2>We got multiple ones. I've been trying.

00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Well what did they tell you?

374
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Either never respond or just rejections.

375
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:17.679
<v Speaker 3>Rejections but they haven't even met you yet.

376
00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:19.799
<v Speaker 2>Well you send in your resume though, and apply?

377

00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:29.360
<v Speaker 1>get it. They're like, that's the that's the devil, the

380
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:31.679
<v Speaker 1>But no, I want you to get it one don't.

381
00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Let's get you a job at the Kuwaiti radio station.

382
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:37.039
<v Speaker 2>That would be great again. I'd have to go there

383
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 2>in person. Yeah, things are not run digitally.

384
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:44.519
<v Speaker 1>But when you say it's connections, like, does does this help?

385
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:46.799
<v Speaker 2>No? No, you need to know someone who works in

386
00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:49.720
<v Speaker 2>that on the radio stage yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, or

387
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:52.200
<v Speaker 2>anywhere bank, anywhere, Like if I had an uncle, for example,

388
00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:53.600
<v Speaker 2>working there, probably get at the.

389
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:55.399
<v Speaker 1>Bank, then you would get that, or somebody who works

390
00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:57.159
<v Speaker 1>at But you don't know anybody that works at the

391
00:16:57.240 --> 00:16:57.840
<v Speaker 1>radio station.

392
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:01.759
<v Speaker 2>None of my family members in the yeah media, And

393
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:02.519
<v Speaker 2>this day I can't think of.

394
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:04.880
<v Speaker 3>Nothing radio, nothing TV. Now that sucks.

395
00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that sucks. And also am I going to prioritize

396
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:10.400
<v Speaker 2>passion or finances? Like do I care more about salary

397
00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:14.599
<v Speaker 2>or so that's also something to think. I wish it

398
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:16.559
<v Speaker 2>was the best of both worlds where I could mix both.

399
00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:19.279
<v Speaker 1>But what is so? So that's what you'll do for work?

400
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:21.480
<v Speaker 1>So are you gonna go back and live with your parents?

401
00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's very normal to live with your parents no matter.

402
00:17:23.920 --> 00:17:26.200
<v Speaker 2>How do you get forty to fifty? Is it really

403
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:28.200
<v Speaker 2>you're unmarried? Yeah, and even when you get married. By

404
00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:30.119
<v Speaker 2>the way, I have a cousin who they just built

405
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:32.839
<v Speaker 2>a floor another level on her childhood home and so.

406
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:34.519
<v Speaker 3>She lives up there.

407
00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

408
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:38.240
<v Speaker 3>Is kuwait forget me for asking? Is kuwait an arranged marriage?

409
00:17:39.240 --> 00:17:41.960
<v Speaker 2>No? No, you could choose who you want. Yeah, maybe.

410
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:43.359
<v Speaker 2>Back in the day it used to be.

411
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, so, but now it's anymore. You can go out

412
00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:48.200
<v Speaker 1>and meet people and you.

413
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:50.119
<v Speaker 2>Can't date publicly though.

414
00:17:50.319 --> 00:17:54.519
<v Speaker 1>You can't date publicly, but you can date privately. Sure, no, no,

415
00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm asking no, But it's not like if it's not

416
00:17:57.039 --> 00:17:57.839
<v Speaker 1>an arranged marriage.

417
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:01.519
<v Speaker 2>It's twenty twenty five. Yeah, but my household, we're quite traditionalist.

418
00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:04.279
<v Speaker 3>So your parents would have a problem. Do your parents

419
00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:05.599
<v Speaker 3>want to arrange your marriage?

420
00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:07.839
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so. No, they're not the type of

421
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:09.400
<v Speaker 2>parents who like, we have this girl or you.

422
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:12.599
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no, the way, but then you have

423
00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:15.039
<v Speaker 1>to date, right, So here's how it worked.

424
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:17.359
<v Speaker 2>Let's say I'll use my sisters and as an exablation,

425
00:18:17.400 --> 00:18:19.400
<v Speaker 2>she's married, No, she's not. I just have one something.

426
00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:21.759
<v Speaker 2>Let's say she meets someone at work and the guy

427
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:24.720
<v Speaker 2>likes her. The guy would find my mom's number. Because

428
00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:27.559
<v Speaker 2>quid is so tiny, you can you know, easily find that,

429
00:18:27.680 --> 00:18:30.839
<v Speaker 2>and then the family would come together too. Families arrange

430
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:33.279
<v Speaker 2>a meeting, and based off of that meeting, you know,

431
00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:37.599
<v Speaker 2>you could have other meetings, get engaged or just drop things.

432
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:39.319
<v Speaker 2>So the family is involved.

433
00:18:39.680 --> 00:18:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Right.

434
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:43.400
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, and then when you get engaged to my knowledge,

435
00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:45.400
<v Speaker 2>you can't really hang out just one on one. There

436
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:47.359
<v Speaker 2>has to be a third party involved, whether it's a friend,

437
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:49.880
<v Speaker 2>a cousin, and sibling. So technically, the first time you're

438
00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:52.440
<v Speaker 2>ever ever alone alone is your wedding nights, is when

439
00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:53.079
<v Speaker 2>you get married.

440
00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:55.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but now is that like when you said, like

441
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.480
<v Speaker 1>he would if you're if using your sister, Yeah, and

442
00:18:58.920 --> 00:19:01.359
<v Speaker 1>at work there's somebody and he would find your mom?

443
00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Is that because is that because of your family or

444
00:19:06.079 --> 00:19:09.079
<v Speaker 1>is that just because, like you said, your family's pretty conservative.

445
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:11.480
<v Speaker 1>So is that just because of your family or is

446
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:14.160
<v Speaker 1>that kind of how it it runs?

447
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:17.480
<v Speaker 2>I want to say it's a cultural thing. It's a

448
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:20.000
<v Speaker 2>traditional thing, so that amongst all households, I got youa.

449
00:19:20.079 --> 00:19:22.440
<v Speaker 2>But again we're in twenty twenty five. Maybe some families

450
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:24.759
<v Speaker 2>do it differently. Now, yeah, I'm sure there's people dating.

451
00:19:24.759 --> 00:19:25.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean who would know?

452
00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:28.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, I listen, I agree, And even if even

453
00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:31.039
<v Speaker 1>if it was underground, you know it's going on, right, Yeah,

454
00:19:31.119 --> 00:19:32.680
