About this episode

Kareem Rahma discusses his internet talk show 'SubwayTakes' and his experiences conducting interviews on the New York City Subway.

"SubwayTakes" (also "Subway Takes") is an internet talk show hosted by comedian and media personality Kareem Rahma. Similar to the "man on the street" style of video, the show features interviews by Rahma with civilians and celebrities on the New York City Subway, recorded with a microphone clipped to a MetroCard, in which the interviewees present and defend a unique or controversial opinion, called a "take." The YouTube show has over 994,000 subscribers and has become one of the most talked-about celebrity interview talk shows of the online era. Host Kareem Rahma was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his work and experience making the show, which you can listen to below.
