Hi! Did you miss us? We missed you. Honest. (Although it probably doesn’t seem like it — in that we haven’t posted a new episode for nearly a year…) So — let’s address that first, shall we? Faiqa and I (this is Mike/Shiny) absolutely loved what we did on a regular basis — developing and...

[72] Order in the Court! #DOMA #PaulaDeen #TrayvonMartin
Order in the court! Order in the court! I’l have a hummus on rye, Your Honor… You know we had to go there. We are all over the place this week, but the one place that’s common to our topics is the courtroom. We’re discussing the Supreme Court’s recent decision to overturn the Defense...
[70] We Talk About Boston…
The bombings at the Boston Marathon occurred two weeks ago. But law enforcement is continuing to put the pieces together — as is the public. This episode of HTMH has us discussing our impressions and our feelings of what happened. As always — feel free to comment at our Facebook page or Tweet us...
[67] This Year’s Passover Episode…
Hi! We’ve been away for a long while. Why is that? You’ll just have to listen to find out… We’re in the midst of the Jewish holiday of Passover — a holiday of springtime, slavery, freedom, multimedia events and education. And, of course, of eating matzah. And, for some, quinoa. Join us for more...
[64] The Christmas Episode!
We wish you a Merry Christmas / we wish you a Merry Christmas / we wish you a Merry Christmas and a … wait, whaaaat? Yes. Christmas. I’m Jewish, she’s Muslim. And this is a Christmas episode. Why? Just because. 🙂 We do, however, talk about a couple of other things: Faiqa (the one...
[59] No Wire Hangers! With Special Guest Neil Kramer
It’s a very special episode of Hey! That’s My Hummus! Why is that? Because Shiny isn’t a part of it! This past week was The Aiming Low Non-Conference in Atlanta, GA. And Faiqa not only was there, but she was also a roundtable leader at the (non) conference! While at the conference she spent time with...
[55] Rama-Dance the Night Away!
Hey! It’s us. We’ve missed you. Have you missed us? Yes? Good. It’s been a bit of time since our last podcast as we’ve been busy during these final few weeks of summer (summer trips to California and NYC to be a panelist at BlogHer ’12, *ahem*). But we’re still thinking about you (honest!),...
Best of Hey! That’s My Hummus! – Vol. 2
We’ve hit the 50 show mark! Woo hoo! And since we’ve made it to that point, we’re taking a quick break this week — no new show. However, we’re re-packaging an old show. Well, two, actually. We’ve taken segments from two of our earlier shows (from all the way back in 2011) and repackaged them....
This Week’s Tragic School Shooting… {{LISTEN}}
On this episode, we’ll be talking about this week’s tragic shooting at a high school in Ohio which left 3 students dead, some more with injuries, and a community severely affected trying to figure out what went wrong. What were the factors which led up to this act of violence? Was it the shooter’s...
Hitler’s G.I. Death Camps and Pulling Ads from All-American Muslim {{LISTEN}}
Here comes a Faiqa-less episode — her son was under the weather (and we hope he feels better!). Fortunately, Shiny’s wife, Kyra, fills in on this episode of HTMH. Kyra was involved with a National Geographic Channel special called Hitler’s G.I. Death Camp, chronicling the happenings in the Berga concentration camp where 350 American P.O.W.’s...
