He anchors the daily news shows, the in-depth discussion show “Inside Story” and the Channel’s one-on-one interview show “Talk to Al Jazeera”. Sami also hosts "Essential Middle East" podcast, the only podcast dedicated to the region's current affairs. He has presented, reported, and produced with the biggest names in television including Al Jazeera, CNN, CNBC, and NBC affiliates.
