10. Sex talks and Mosques with my Somali Mother: The Story of Comedian and Child Refugee, Mo Omar

Asylum Speakers Podcast with Jaz O'Hara: Stories of Migration and Displacement

From pet goats to beans on toast, this week I chat to the amazing Mo Omar, a Somali-born comedian who grew up in Wales.

Mo arrived to the England as a refugee aged seven with his mother and six siblings. Today we talk about his integration into the UK and how he draws on those experiences for his stand-up routine.

Mo uses comedy to cover important themes such as migration, integration, religion, racism and more. Bringing humour to these topics often helps people to connect, and Mo does so beautifully. We discuss everything from double beds to controlling mothers, in a way that I hope will bring you lots of joy in the run up to Christmas.

This one is to make you smile.

Happy Christmas!
