Join us for an unforgettable episode with Yaser Al-Nyrabeah, an actor, writer, and comedian whose stand-up explores the dualities of growing up in the West while embracing his rich Syrian ...heritage. Raised in Canada by Syrian refugee parents, Yaser has performed at legendary comedy clubs like The Comedy Store and Hollywood Improv.
In this episode, Yaser opens up about the impact of his mother’s memoir, Just Five Minutes, and how it shaped his perspective on storytelling, survivor’s guilt, and advocacy. He dives into the struggles of Arab comedians in the industry, the resilience of Palestinians, and the fine line between “showing off” and “marketing” in entertainment. Plus, we get deep into comedy, relationships, and his love for long, Oscar-worthy films.
