Immigrantly is Saadia Khan's weekly attempt to answer that — with artists, academics, cultural disruptors, and people whose ordinary lives contain something extraordinary. Saadia has worked in human rights, built a media company, and spent twelve years becoming an American — which is a long time to think about a question most people never ask. We go past the surface to the messy beauty of belonging. Identity is powerful, but unchecked it becomes an ego trap — so every episode sits with the nuance, the humor, and the contradictions of what it means to be from somewhere and of somewhere else. Real talk, never flattened. New episodes every Tuesday. To join this fun, thoughtful, and inclusive community, subscribe!

He went on to work for Senator Dianne Feinstein, became Dr. Jill Biden's digital director, served in the White House, and worked on the Kamala Harris 2024 campaign. Then Democrats lost, and something in him snapped. He pointed a camera at himself, started walking, and started talking. Within four months, 200,000 followers. Today, over 359,000. In this episode, Saadia Khan sits down with Charlie for an unfiltered conversation about politics, identity, and why the Democratic Party has completely lost the plot. They get into: Why calling himself \"just a dude\" is actually the whole strategy Growing up in a radically political household — and hating it, until he didn't The moral calculus of working for Dianne Feinstein as a Bernie Sanders progressive Why he said no to Biden, yes to Kamala, and what that cost him Harm reduction politics — and whether it's ever enough What Democrats got wrong about Joe Rogan, Zohran Mamdani, and coalition-building Why he's targeting the men Democrats are losing and how he's actually reaching them Democracy is an endless fight, and what the Trump era cracked open for all of us This one's for anyone who's felt too progressive for the Democrats and too practical for purity politics.
