Unveiling Stars in Big Time Podcast
Amr Adeeb shared his excitement about the GEA, led by Advisor Turki Al Al-Sheikh, successfully bringing together prominent names rarely seen together.

The conversations delved into guests’ childhoods, formative years, pivotal moments in their lives, and their pre-fame careers. Interestingly, they revealed that some guests had worked in restaurants, construction, tailoring, and more. This approach not only brought new information and insights about the stars to the forefront but also allowed for a more intimate and humanizing portrayal of their journeys.
Unique Approach to Celebrity Interviews
Assala, co-hosting with Amr Adeeb, highlighted the podcast’s ability to capture moments of genuine honesty and depth. She pointed out that the celebrities were at ease due to the program’s atmosphere, simple studio setup, and thoughtful questioning. This authenticity made each interview unique, offering viewers an unparalleled glimpse into the guests’ true selves. The casual yet profound nature of the discussions marked a departure from conventional celebrity interviews, focusing instead on sincerity and relatability.
Riyadh Season & Beyond
A key theme of the “Big Time Podcast” conversations was the guests’ visits to Riyadh Season and their overall impressions of the recent changes in KSA. Additionally, they shared their personal experiences in the Saudi capital. These stories not only serve to entertain but also encourage viewers to explore Saudi culture firsthand, based on the personal accounts of well-known figures. Discussing their lives and milestones, the guests shared compelling stories of resilience, ambition, and success.
Big Time Podcast: Bridging Cultures Through Dialogue
