My @ajplus show "Eat This with Yara" won a national Emmy Award at the @DaytimeEmmys on Saturday (we submitted an episode about the dark history of trespassing laws in the U.S. ft @blackforager). Here's a recently published article that talks about it!.

Really pumped to play this new game (hoping it comes to PS5).
A new video game, Relooted, allows players to take stolen African artifacts from Western museums and return them to their home countries. AJ+ talked to one of the game’s producers to find out more about the game that’s been hailed one of the most anticipated games of 2025.

This made my day. (Also, highly suggest following Alireza for some super thought-provoking musings about domestic Iranian politics/society these days).
Yara is one of my favorite journalists. Not only does he break down international politics in bite sized chunks on his Instagram stories, but also combines food and journalism in the greatest way I've ever seen. Well deserved award.
