If you've listened to Ramzi's episode you'll know he's not one to shy away from having a strong opinion. Today's hot topic: cultural appropriation.

But how did we get here?

It began as a conversation about how Egypt's architectural landscape has us trying to look like Dubai while we're sitting on 7,000 years of civilization that everybody and their mother has borrowed from at some point or another. And on that note, how do you draw the line between appropriation and inspiration?

In this bonus segment, we ask life's important questions—like are galabeyas even Egyptian?
