Persian of Interest

Hosts Shauhin Davari (Survivor) and Kaveh Hoda (The House of Pod) reconnect with their Persian roots one historical figure or event at a time. Each episode, one of them dives deep into a defining chapter of Iranian history — the kings, scientists, artists, and athletes who shaped the world — and brings the other along for the ride. It's part history lesson, part discovery, part two friends figuring out where they came from and why it matters now. From Cyrus the Great to the present day, Persian of Interest shines a light on Persian contributions to art, science, philosophy, and culture that have too often been minimized or erased from the narrative.
