Here we are talking about Iranian culture, Iranian people, Persian language and how to master it, little bit about Manila, little bit about Munich (Germany), and little bit about everything. Hope you enjoy it.

Maestro Morteza Ghanbarnasab Behbahani is an Iranian Ney and Ney-Anban player. He started playing Ney since he was 17 and now He plays in "Chavoosh Behbahan" ensemble. In this episode we are talking about: How the Iranian Ney is made. How long it takes someone to learn playing it. Where and how to begin learning this euphonic instrument. And a lot more.
The most difficult wind instrument to play
Ney is a flute shaped wind instrument made from sugar cane and sometimes plastic composites. The sound of Ney has always been recognized as one of the most distinguishable features in the middle eastern music. The Iranian Ney though, has a special characteristic and a soothing sound among others. It has 6 finger holes in the front and one in the back. The upper edge of the Ney has to be placed in between two upper front teeth and unlike other wind instruments, does not have a reed to generate the initial sound. Apparently, these characteristics should make playing Ney a lot difficult. But is it so?
To know more about it, I recommend listening to this episode where you can find all your questions answered. This episode was spoken entirely in Farsi.

Today if you're a native English speaker and you want to learn another language, you will easily find many sources available online. Videos, apps, podcasts, programs, newsletters, etc. Many companies produced valuable products which are easy to follow and in most cases they do really make the whole process of learning a language a lot easier. All you have to do is to listen and repeat. Keep it going and after a few months, whoala! You can speak just another language (by the definition). However, as of now I believe when it comes to Persian language, these online sources are notably limited. But worry not! there is a jewel in this realm. Something that was and still is needed.

21st of August 2016, one nice afternoon, I had the pleasure to have some coffee and chat with Waqar Rizvi and his wife Kaneez Fatima in one nice café in Tehran. Waqar and his wife are news anchors for almost 8 years now at Press TV which is Iran's television network based in Tehran and broadcasting in English. They're Pakistanis, thus considered foreigners in Iran. They've lived here around 10 years now and managed to study, work and live a successful life. In my opinion, if you want to work, study or live in Iran as well, you may consider taking some advice from them.
What you’re about to hear is the 8th episode of Persian Podcast. A friendly chat with a friendly, humble and courteous people. I'm not quite sure about this but I'm assuming that this couple are more popular worldwide than in Iran. Imagine you’re a news anchor in one country for almost 8 years and by the time you go out to buy groceries, no one knows you much. You just look familiar or something. Though in some points it could be cool, in some points it's not. Depends on how'd you expect the society to respond to your line of profession. So I encourage you to listen to this conversation where we’ve kicked a little bit of various topics such as social, work and life experience in Iran.
I must also say that you will notice a slight background noise during the episode. I confess that the place wasn’t quite suitable for voice recording in that specific day as it was for having dinner or drinks. A music was played in the café almost throughout the track and that was something I couldn’t do anything about even in post-production process. So bear with me on that. The music isn’t too loud or disturbing though, but it’s something that's just there. And one more thing. I'm also thinking now it'd be much nicer if I'd showed up at least with a gift or present for them where that in specific didn't happen for some reasons and ... Alas. But as they mentioned, I’m also learning from my mistakes and in future, I hope I can correct them all and improve myself.
Above all, I hope you enjoy this episode and feel free to comment and let me know what you think.

In this episode I'm talking about four major categories of tourism attractions in the city of Mashhad. Mashhad is Iran's number 1 when it comes to religious attractions. But it's not all. Mashhad is also important from other tourism aspects as well which I've briefly covered here. This entire episode was spoken in Farsi.
