THE WAIT

Mozhgan Moarefizadeh is stuck in Jakarta, living without rights — but with a yappy dog named Bella. With journalist Nicole Curby, she brings you into the lives of refugees like her, who are trapped on Australia’s new borderline, in Indonesia. 

 

The Wait is a five-part podcast series that grew out of Nicole and Mozhgan’s friendship. The Wait walks a unique and delicate line, presenting rigorous in-depth reporting while placing authority in Moarefizadeh’s hands, who is the series’ co-host, central protagonist, reporter, interpreter, and expert. — The producers
