HONY (Humans Of New York) originally started a photographic movement when he decided to take meaningful pictures of random strangers in New York, and he became one of our favorite photographers when he decided to take his project to our beautiful country, Iran (click here for the pictures). Our topic this week is this beautiful project and we were even able to speak to Reza, who is the founder of Humans of Tabriz. He tells us why he decided to take this project on, and a little more about who he is.

And our main interview of the week is with no other than TEHRAN (not the city, the half black half persian man we all love). For anyone who does not know, Tehran has an African American mother and and Iranian Father. Being the mix of both these cultures and growing up in America Tehran has embraced his Iranian identity and shares his unique perspective on our culture on his podcast ImPerfect Gentlemen and on his standup comedy tours all over the states. Tehran is also an old friend of Iranican that we love and are sure you will too. Don’t forget to follow us on TWITTER (Here) and listen to our podcast, enjoy our show, send us some love, and don’t forget to “Like” our page on faceBook, and leave us a voicemail at 1-762-BEFARMA (762-2332-762).

What do Tala Hadavi and Reza Madadi have in common? They are both with us this week on Sedaye Iranican. Born in Tehran, Reza Madadi has competed in Strike And Submit (SAS), Superior Challenge (SC), Furious Fighting Championship (FFC) and a few other fighting organizations. He is currently competing as a lightweight for the Ultimate Fighting Championship, as well as one of the coolest men we have talked to. We also have Tala Hadavi joining us this week who talks about her involvement with the documentary she made about Reza as well as her upcoming project.

We are also very sad to say this was Elnaz’s last show as a host on Sedaye Iranican. Elnaz has been a part of Iranican family for many years now and even though Iranican will not be the same without her, we wish her the best in her life. So tune in this week to hear what Reza has to say about upcoming matches, what Tala is currently doing, and get to hear what Elnaz wants to say on her last show.
