😂اپیزود ۱۶ سمسون «ببخشید، کفشامو چرا باید دربیارم؟! منتشر شد👟»

In this episode, Samson talks about a small cultural habit that actually carries a big meaning: taking off your shoes at the door.
In Iran, it’s a sign of respect and cleanliness. The floor is part of the living space — people sit, lie down, pray, and relax on carpets.
In England, shoes are part of your outfit. Keeping them on makes guests feel comfortable and “at home.”
So, taking shoes off = respect in one culture…
Keeping shoes on = respect in another.
Same action, different meaning.

🎙️موضوع این قسمت: «کفش جلوی در، فقط کفش نیست!»
سمسون می‌گه وقتی اومد ایران، یادش رفت کفششو دربیاره و همه تعجب کردن.
و وقتی یک دوست ایرانی رفت خونه‌اش در لندن، کفششو درآورد و خود سمسون تعجب کرد!
تازه فهمید: این فقط یک عادت نیست — نماد احترام، مهمان‌نوازی و راحتی در هر فرهنگ فرق می‌کنه.

🟣 جلسه‌س یا دورهمی؟ Sarah Odeima از مصر
پادکست آهسته مبتدی و متوسط اپیزود شماره ۱۸

In this episode, Sarah explores how business meetings look totally different in Arab, Iranian, and British cultures.
In Dubai, people begin meetings by asking about your family, health, or even football — because trust comes before business.
In Tehran, meetings start with greetings, jokes, and tea — a mix of personal warmth and work focus.
In London, the laptop opens, the clock ticks, and the first sentence is: “Let’s get started.” Time is respect.

🎙️موضوع این قسمت: «Respect means different things.»
در بعضی فرهنگ‌ها، احترام یعنی وقت گذاشتن برای طرف مقابل.
در بعضی فرهنگ‌ها، احترام یعنی وقت طرف مقابل رو نگرفتن.
