Ethan Sawyer Interviewed The Host of Subway Takes

Ethan Sawyer interviewed Kareem Rahma, the host of Subway Takes, for his newsletter. In their conversation, Sawyer chats with Rahma about “avoiding creative stasis” and “being compared to Anthony Bourdain.” 

Sawyer writes, “Hosted by Kareem Rahma and filmed on actual New York City subway cars, the show-slash-podcast crystalizes the minutiae of everyday life, with guests like Charli XCX and Brynn Wallner (to name but a few) opining on topics to often funny and sometimes philosophical effect.” 

In their conversation, Rahma tells Sawyer, “Subway Takes is only a year old and I’ve always treated it like a side project. It’s only in the past month or two that I’ve decided to take a real swing with this, to try and publish more videos or get bigger talent on… That’s all new.”
