Catching up with Immigrantly
Dear Hyphenly Readers,
While most of today's media caters to the audience's needs, few bear witness to the everyday extraordinariness of immigrant life, like love, food, faith, friendship, and creativity. Immigrantly is partaking in discussions, and topics often overlooked in the mainstream media.
In today’s newsletter, we’re catching you up with what’s been happening at all the podcasts that make up Immigrantly Media.
At Immigrantly Podcast, host Saadia Khan sat down with Jeremiah Tittle, CEO of Next Chapter Podcasts to have an honest conversation about the medium of audio-storytelling. Jeremiah gets honest about burnout, delegation struggles, and the future of indie podcasting in a consolidating industry. You can connect with Saadia on X @swkkhan or email her at [email protected] to share your thoughts about the episode. |
At Love-ly, our newly launched podcast, host Mehak explores the beautifully messy, deeply personal stories of love, identity, and connection. From first- and second-generation immigrants balancing family expectations to Gen Z navigating dating apps and “situationships,” Love-ly dives into the heart of what it means to love in today’s tech-driven world. In the latest episode, therapist and writer Laura Caruso joins our host Mehak for a raw, real-time conversation about heartbreak, emotional regulation, and the hard question we’ve all faced in relationships: “Should I stay or should I go?” You can connect with Mehak @whatthemehak on TikTok and @whatthemehak_ on IG |
At Sportly, hosted by Kavitha A. Davidson, an Emmy award-winning sports journalist, we go beyond the superficial: delving into the lives of legendary athletes, the cultural impact of sports, and the untold stories that shape the very nature of competition. Whether it's the challenges immigrants face shattering barriers or the victories that bring nations together, we reveal the human aspect of sports in a way that’s never been done before. In the latest episode, we dive into the unlikely journey of baseball from a symbol of American soft power to a global phenomenon dominated by Japan. The episode traces the game’s roots in Meiji-era Japan, unpacks how post-WWII baseball diplomacy shaped U.S.–Japan relations, and revisits iconic moments—from Babe Ruth’s tour to Shohei Ohtani’s World Baseball Classic showdown with Mike Trout. You can reach the host, Kavitha, at [email protected] |
And at Banterly, a fun, conversational-style podcast that dissects contemporary films and TV shows to explore the many exciting, thought-provoking….and sometimes problematic elements of pop culture, our Gen Z host Aidan Taylor dives deep into the nuances of the popular trends. In the latest episode, Aidan and Maya dive deep into Netflix’s star-studded series Four Seasons. If you want to share your thoughts about this or other episodes, reach out at [email protected] |

This month, we are particularly looking to feature stories from queer immigrants. We are looking for personal stories that are queer in all senses of the word – whether it’s your coming-out story, a movie that changed your life, how queerness looks in your culture and family, profiles on queer elders you’ve learned from, and more.
