Hello and welcome to another episode of Olive Tree. I’m your host Ali. Let me tell you a bit about myself. In 2012, I went to Heidelberg, Germany to do a master degree in American Studies. You might ask what in the world in American Studies??! Well, that’s a topic for another day. For today, I want to describe a political junkie. Namely, myself. When I wake up in the morning, I spend about three to four hours on YouTube catching up with the news of the day before. A political junkie, is a person who draws pleasure from politics. I was originally a student of English literature. Somewhere along the way, I discovered a weekly podcast hosted by the New Yorker’s executive editor Dorothy Wickenden. I’ve been listening to that podcast for over ten years. And I think the seeds of my interest in politics were sown there or maybe it was that I discovered my interest in politics through this podcasts. So I’m passionate about international relations and politics and many other topics related to politics. I could talk politics for hours, you know with burning passion.
