The United Arab Emirates is a country of abrupt transitions: flat coastal plains give way to rolling dunes, and the eastern mountains rise behind cities where Arabic, English, Hindi and Urdu all meet in daily conversation. This podcast looks at what it means to travel through that landscape as a resident would, moving slowly and paying attention. Over the series, the focus moves from the high-rise districts of Dubai and the waterfront of Abu Dhabi to the older streets of Sharjah and the mountain wadis around Fujairah in the east. These places share one country but differ in pace, architecture ...

Salim Al Balushi hosts a podcast about travelling through Oman the way a resident would: settling in one place, learning it, then moving somewhere connected to it. Travel here means facing a dry desert interior, humid coasts, and a summer monsoon in the far south that shapes the rhythms of Salalah. The show ranges from Muscat and the Al Hagar Mountains, where most Omanis live, to the Musandam peninsula above the Strait of Hormuz and the monsoon-soaked hills around Salalah. It also crosses the central desert plain, with its sparse settlements and long routes between water and shade. The podcast...

This podcast is a resident's account of travelling in Qatar over time. The country is a flat, barren desert peninsula in the Persian Gulf, so journeys between places are often about exposure, distance and the changing light. Most people live around Doha on the eastern coast, which shapes the routes available. The host moves through Doha, Ar-Rayyan, Al Zubarah and the inland dunes around Khor Al Adaid. Ar-Rayyan is a large city immediately west of the capital; Al Zubarah is a ruined fort town on the north-west coast; Khor Al Adaid is a tidal inlet where the desert meets the sea. Each place ...

This podcast follows a resident's slow route through Saudi Arabia, where the terrain is mostly sandy desert and the climate is harsh, dry and extreme. Travel here means crossing a country without rivers, between the Persian Gulf and Red Sea, and learning how settlement has shifted since oil was discovered in the 1930s. The host moves between Riyadh, Jeddah, Ad Dammam and the oasis city of Hufuf-Mubarraz. These are not just stops: Riyadh is the capital, Jeddah faces the Red Sea, Ad Dammam sits on the Persian Gulf, and Hufuf-Mubarraz is an interior oasis in the eastern desert. The show unfolds ...

This podcast is the work of a resident slowly making sense of Jordan: its arid plateau, the Rift Valley cutting through the west, and the winter rains that return each November. Travelling here means moving between sparse desert, deep valleys and a capital that concentrates most of the population. The host moves between Amman, where most Jordanians live, and the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba. He also spends time in the Jordanian Highlands, where the western rainy season makes the landscape distinctly less arid. From there he follows connections south and west, returning to ...

Life is the most extraordinary phenomenon in the known universe; but how does it work? Even in this age of cloning and synthetic biology, the remarkable truth remains: nobody has ever made anything living entirely out of dead material. Life remains the only way to make life. Are we missing a vital ingredient in its creation? Like Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene, which provided a new perspective on how evolution works, Life on the Edge alters our understanding of life's dynamics.

Their relationship? Complicated. Their chemistry? Irresistible. Their enemies? Biblical. Petra is the only one of her kind—a telekinetic supernatural with a tragic past, questionable judgment, and the subtlety of a thrown grenade. After spending three years wiping an evil corporation of the map (long story, lots of fire), she and Jesse can finally be free. Then a demon shows up to say, You’re one of us. So naturally, Petra ghosts. Not because she doesn’t love Jesse.

And here I am, itching to reach out and touch a girl who is so forbidden that just thinking about her feels like committing a mortal sin. Thing is, I love playing with fire.
