Sarde After Dinner (Arabic: سردة or سردة بعد العشاء) is a Lebanese podcast hosted by Médéa Azouri and Mouin Jaber.[1]

History[edit]

Sarde, as the show is also known, was started in the aftermath of the 17 October Revolution as a way to discuss the issues plaguing Lebanon and the country's failing government.[1]

Hosts[edit]

Azouri is French-Lebanese journalist who has written for L’Orient-Le Jour and Noun Magazine. In addition to co-hosting Sarde, Jaber works as digital producer for MBC Podcasts.[2][3] He is the son of well known Lebanese journalist and media consultant Ali Jaber.[4]

Format[edit]

The show typically features Médéa and Mouin interviewing prominent cultural, social, and political figures primarily from Lebanon, but also the wider Arab world.[1][5]

Production[edit]

Episodes are recorded in Azouri's Beirut apartment. They are also filmed and posted on YouTube.[1][6]

Notable episodes[edit]

In a September 2022 episode, Hamed Sinno, the lead singer of Mashrou' Leila, broke the news that the group had disbanded.[7][8]
