Hamburger Generation (or as our parents call us – جيل الهمبرجر) is a podcast show full of light-hearted stories about the lives of 2nd generation Arab expats. Great Stories by Great Storytellers! “Hamburger Generation” or “جيل الهمبرجر” is a term coined by Arab elders to describe today’s spoiled and westernized Arab youth. We chose to embrace the term with humor as it playfully describes the Arab millennials. Brought to you by Jamil Adas & Isra Abu Zayed. Happy Listening Burgers!
