Sarde (noun), [Sa-r-de]: A colloquial term used in the Middle East to describe the act of letting go & kicking off a stream of consciousness and a rambling narrative.
The Sarde After Dinner Podcast is a free space based out of the heart of Beirut, Lebanon, where Médéa Azouri & Mouin Jaber discuss a wide range of topics (usually) held behind closed doors in an open and simple way with guests from all walks of life.
سردة (إسم) سَرْدَةْ : مصطلح بالعامية يستخدم في منطقة الشرق الأوسط للدلالة على الاسترخاء وإطلاق سردية.
يشكّل بودكاست سردة بعد العشاء مساحة حرّة من قلب بيروت، لبنان، حيث تناقش ميديا عازوري ومعين جابر عدّة مواضيع (لطالما) تمّت مناقشتها خلف أبواب مغلقة وذلك بطريقة بسيطة ومباشرة مع ضيوف من شتّى المجالات.

[@wosh79]

Heis amazing but i am trying to follow his Instagram account but its not working. Can you send me the proper link . Thanks

[@lepetitangesf]

thank you for featuring sultan! as a Lebanese art historian these topics are so important for us to talk about, to understand our artistic heritage which most of us don't even know about. We need to rebuild our identity in these post-colonial times. It could help us unite our people! art can play a huge part in this! more of this, please and thank you! and all my respect to the Sharjah princedom which pours all of its power into cultural work.

[@typo5405]

This guy is a gem; protect him. thank you for introducing him to us.

[@estefaniamg]

This was AMAZING!!! Am I the only one who is going to watch all over again to take note of every single artist mentioned???

[@aou6499]

Nope. I'll be doing the same

[@linashabeeb6922]

Me too 👍🏼

[@marahalqedra1996]

The warm thing in this sarde is that the guy is so close to both Moeen and Media, he calls him by their name which feels a bit unusual in sarde but feels so warming. Absolutely great character and wish you have another sarde with him

[@afafahmad6240]

This is, by far, the best sarde! I couldn’t stop listening to Sultan talking so passionately about art and history, and if this episode was 3 hours long, I would have listened with just as much interest. His knowledge, culture and passion are so tangible and I am in awe of his character.

[@MariaEatWorld]

absolutely one of my favorite sardes to date. thank you!!!!

[@abdullaelmasri]

Sultan is not only inspiring and virtuous but also the most humble person you would meet! Indeed his passion to art is contagious!
We NEED more people like him!

[@wissamharb5684]

This guy can talk about literally anything and I will listen. His passion is unmatched

[@dinadandana8765]

أعتقد سلطان القاسمي وضع بصمة كبيرة في عالم الفن العربي والعالمي وهو خير من ينشر ثقافة الفن وأجمل من يتكلم عنه وله الرياده في استثمار ثقافة الفن من أجل الفن وهو أجمل من يتحدث عن الفن العربي والفنان العربي الذين أضاء أعمالهم لنا بكل ما أوتي من علم تحيه له ولجمال عقله ولكل ما يتحفنا به ....دينا الشهوان

[@esraaal-rashed3936]

Thanks Sarde and Sultan for reminding us to trace our roots and cultural heritage throughout Arts, love this episode.

[@sami23alarabi]

شكرا لحضراتكم ع استضافة الشيخ والمفكر سلطان لانو انسان مثقف واعي ونحن باشد الحاجة لمثل هيك عقول وفكر رائع بمنطقتنا العربية! ماحدا ينكر اهمية ومساهمة مسيحي الشرق والوطن العربي بشتى انواع الفنون وجميع المجالات ولهم بصمتهم موجودة وكلنا فخر بهم وبفنهم!

[@sumerjoy1964]

Had only 15 minutes free to watch. Planned on using the 15 minutes, and I resume watching later on.
I could NOT STOP. What an interesting intellectual informed pride gentleman Sultan is. Hats off

[@sahersaher1480]

Grateful for Sultans presence amongst and for Arab art and artists, as an Arab artist in diaspora this gives me hope, thank you sarde for another gem.

[@namhd9565]

حلقة رائعة في طرح الأسئلة، وإدارة الحوار، وكم المعلومات التي شاركها برحابة صدر الضيف الفاضل الشيخ سلطان سعود ..اتخذ من الفنّ بوابةً ضمن رسالته لثقيف الجيل العربي. ولأول مرة أستمع له بلهجة بلاد الشام 👍

[@Dreamingwithin]

I pray for a real authentic passion like this ❤

[@bluefunk05]

If anyone's interested, read Inji Efflatoun's memoirs "مذكّرات انجي افلاطون من الطفولة إلى السجن" 👌

[@rashaalmaleh]

شكرا على هذا اللقاء الذي تعرفت من خلاله على جوانب مهمة منثقافة ورسالة الشيخ سلطان بن سعود القاسمي التنويرية

[@user-wr7lz8ec4t]

شغفه معدي هالسلطان الجميل .. شكرا حلقة جميلة .

[@nyflower6]

Great podcast! Been following him for years and love what he’s been doing in the region by changing the narrative, and bringing so much history to light in a positive way 👏👏🥰

[@yasminealmasry2303]

This sarde was more than amazing and aspiring.... As a small Arabic artist, these words were much needed. Thank you!

[@halakhaledturk5741]

Great guest choice! Elevated to the next level!

[@hussammuhieddine9690]

Sultan’s amazing work in creating a centralized archive of Arab and Islamic art works from all over the Arab world is critical for us in regaining control over our own narrative and rebuilding our cultural identity. Bravo sultan! Great work.

[@Bil3rabia7la]

Thank you for a beautiful episode! Thank you Sultan for spreading the message and inspiring our generation. The Arab world has a lot to offer. Art has always been in our history and will be stronger in our future.

[@rimamoukahal7046]

برنامج جميل جميل جدا ، واجمل شيء هو الترجمة الى الانكليزية- ارسلت هذه الحلقة لكل اصدقائي الغربيين. شكرا معين شكرا ميديا❤

[@veronhaki6066]

It was very interesting to hear and learn more about the artist and story behind their art, that I had pleasure to see 2 months ago. Sultan you are very inspiring person for what you do for Arab culture and for your attitude towards this art as your amanah. This should be thought in secondary curriculums across the Arab world.

[@maryabouske6486]

اتخييلوا أنو أنا سوريه و بدرس بألمانيا و هي أول مره بسمع بمروان .... شي بحزن و بخجل

[@dizzyrumkit]

Great sarde. Love to see passionate and educated Arabs share their knowledge and passion. I hope artists get more support in the Arab world and not imprisonment and punishment as has been the case in the past.

[@ahmadmahbouba8889]

Man sarde is just beautiful.

[@jamalsaab7644]

One of the best and most interesting Sardes!

[@manarfleifel4793]

What a great episode. Amazing insight about Arts in the Arab World, and a great way to invite us Arabs who are so in love with Western Art to start questioning they whys and the how (to identify and look into art from the Arab world), and encourage it.

[@khaledhafez1158]

Brillian talk Sultan ….. بحق محترم وبديع وصادق

[@lmanel6757]

I feel like I want to hug this genuis…برشة حب ❤

مش معقول عندي احساس قوم اضهر من بيتي وروح عالشارقة وشوف كل الاعمال في برجيل ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Do-si]

Arab Artists are "artistic nomads" living in an artistically dry area, in the Hopes of being appreciated. I've never seen an art dealer/enthusiast with such high ethical principles. I hope it's real.
