Masih Alinejad joins Tom Nash for a conversation that starts in the kitchen and ends in the heart of resistance. Over a last-meal spread, Masih unpacks a life that moved from a small Iranian village chanting state slogans to a Brooklyn block bound by community. She talks about compulsory veiling, brainwashing at school, assassination plots, and the paradox of being protected in America while hunted by Iran’s regime. Through stories of neighbors showing up, civil disobedience in front of a “reformist” president, and planting a cherry blossom to hug her mother from afar, Masih explains how joy, work, and community keep her unbroken. This is an intimate, defiant, and uplifting conversation about fear, freedom, and the revolutions that begin in our kitchens. 👉 This episode was originally produced and hosted by Tom Nash on his acclaimed series The Last Meal with Tom Nash Podcast.
