The Mal Show is a conversation-driven podcast about money and the human condition. Hosted by Youssef Salem — The show brings together founders, investors, operators, policymakers, and thinkers to examine what really happens inside finance, entrepreneurship, and capital allocation. Each conversation explores how money moves through modern systems, how capital is raised and deployed, and how ambition, power, faith, and ethics intersect in real life. Islamic finance appears as a living moral lens within these discussions — not as theory, but as practice. Powered by Mal, the first AI-native Islamic digital financial platform, the podcast reflects Mal’s broader mission: to create space for serious, nuanced conversations about money, values, and modern financial systems without slogans or easy conclusions. This is where finance is examined with depth, clarity, and intellectual honesty.
