  • Amin Elhassan never has a problem dishing out NBA hot takes or speaking his mind on any number of cultural topics, but getting him to communicate about his own emotions? That's another story... Amin opens up to Dan with a heavy heart about the ongoing conflicts in Sudan, grappling with feelings of shame, and tells Dan why all this time, he relates more to Papi than him. Amin and Dan also reflect on personal struggles they're working on, and how each have found ways to try to honor the sacrifices of their immigrant parents. Check your ego at the door with this one...

    The pain through Amin's silence after saying out loud that he wishes he never left the Sudan is heartbreaking 😢

    Amin would be that friend who would always make you laugh, would always be down for a good time, and will be the first one there if you needed help. The dude is just great.

    Six minutes in and I was already tearing up for my king Amino Acid. Dude has been the MVP since they left ESPN and he continues to deliver the best content in the company every single day. Love him.

    This new path of SBS has given me some of the purest, and realest insight into different walks of humanity. It's growing knowledge and empathy for things as simple as fatherhood, to things as complicated as terror in your home country. Stuff some of us may experience, some stuff many of us can never experience.
    Thank you Amin for sharing

  • @Denvernate
    @Denvernate ปีที่แล้ว +9

    2 things.
    1 - this episode was fantastic and Dan and Amin should both be commended for sitting in the uncomfortable.
    2 - Dan, you'll never be able to repay your 'debt' to your parents. That's okay! Parents do what they do because they love their children. Even if Papi never says it his actions show it - he loves you man.

    Man. Amin.. I know you'll never read this.. but. My son just turned 12 two days ago. (Oddly enough, I turned 37 today) That whole "your kids need to hear how you grew up so they can know you.." is something I have spent so much time on with my son these last couple of years as he gets older and is able to understand more and more. It started out hard to do, but now it's easier.. Truth is, its easier when he is asking questions. If you truly want to talk to your kids about how you grew up, have them ask you questions. Any question they have.. I guarantee your 12 year old has more questions about you than you could imagine..

  • @georgebecker5726

    Grateful for the conversation. But Dan, don’t try to dissuade someone from their shame. Sit with them and let them see that someone can be there with them in that lonely feeling without trying to invalidate that feeling.

    I really hope someday soon Amin's kids get to see this. If he can't personally convey the hardships he dealt with as a child to his children, at least they'll get to hear this and see him vulnerable.
    Absolutely incredible man and great interview!

  • @epiren
    @epiren ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Amin, if you read this, I hope you feel the big digital hug I am sending you. As a Mexican immigrant to the United States, I can identify. I see about all the drug cartel violence, and there is nothing I can do. My brother (a police officer in Mexico) was killed a year ago today. And there is nothing I can do. The helplessness is real. Thank you for sharing your story.

    This was an incredible, painful, beautiful hour from you both, Dan and Amin. Thank you for sharing all the shame, confusion, heartache, anger, and allowing us all to be moved, affected, or educated by something we didnt know or tried to ignore ourselves. This will HELP so many to better work on themselves, work with others, empathize with a stranger, be willing to be uncomfortable.
    Salute to you, you're our brother

  • @walkerdumontj
    @walkerdumontj ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Man these new SBS are amazing, and that is an understatement. Hearing, and seeing Amin be vulnerable and open in this way was heartbreaking and comforting all at the same time. Seeing Dan dive into these deep interviews is great, it opens up an entire new side to him and his guest. LOVE IT.

    As a Cuban born in cuba I relate to what Amin is saying. I think most immigrants do at some level; but a lot choose to turn that shame into resentment towards those who remain as a shield

    The way this show has made me cry through laughter, deep emotional conversations and through heart-breaking topics and being able to help me overcome some of my depression/anxiety while listening to the show is why I love this show and this team. I’ve been listening for almost 8+ years. These guys are just amazing.

  • @thccoughyshop608
    @thccoughyshop608 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Never wanted to hug another person that I don't even really know more than watching the emotions come thru Amin's face and words right now. No shame needed brother. I believe speaking on behalf of where you come from is helping more than you realize. Appreciate the realness from you, it couldn't have been easy.

  • @lisamoehn7880
    @lisamoehn7880 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @denimchicken420
    @denimchicken420 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great conversation about the immigrant experience in America. Assimilation isn't just about melding into American culture, it's also quite often about the burden of parental expectations along the way. Thanks for the content boys!

  • @jeremyblack9772
    @jeremyblack9772 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The pain Amin speaks, is the same pain myself and a lot of other Soldiers have. I totally get what he ment by shame and guilt, and if he ever reads this i just want him to know that he is doing more for his people than he probably understands. I'm talking about the conflict at work all the time now, how it is very much like Ukraine, even those fucks at wagner are arming one side. Keep talking about it Amin, and i will always support.

  • @PhilM4
    @PhilM4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Amin shouldn't feel shame or regret from leaving Sudan. Him being in the US can help bring a spotlight to the issues there. Him speaking about it really opened my eyes.

  • @MrBaltch

    @PoppaCYS ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This episode by surprised me from the 1st minute. I was expecting to see Amin's class clown and court jesture persona fighting off Dan's attempt at a serious interview and instead got a thoughtful, introspective self-aware person with shame and guilt. South Beach Sessions has been increasingly good every week - well done!

    I can never compare myself to Amin’s story, but to hear the struggle in one’s self in feeling they aren’t doing enough out of fear of doing that “something” hits a note for me and with a lot of people I’m sure.

  • @kingalpha7074
    @kingalpha7074 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've been following you guys for over ten years and this is probably the most powerful and touching podcast of all. As someone who is an immigrant from a developing country and now living in a first world country I can totally relate to what Amin is feeling even if not on the same scale.

    I love Dan LeBatard for this. Love the group and all the great sports talk. But going here. Addressing this topic is just so….real and humane. I really appreciate that I am not expected to see Amin, knowing he’s Sudanese, pretend nothing is happening in Sudan. I hope you see this comment. Just want you to know I see what you are doing and I love it!! Keep going… 💪🏽💫

    Thank you so much for opening up and sharing, means a lot. My dad died before he figured out how to express his feelings, and I know he wanted to and it bothered him. Makes me extra appreciate seeing other guys and their dads work through these things together and generationally on their own. More power to you both, perfect ending too lol it feels good to say it Amin let those powerful, uncomfortable, positive emotions flow through you 🙌🏼

    Amin no one will ever know your particular struggle. My grandparents took me in as a kid and struggled with this too.
    The one thing I learned from them as poor uneducated Portuguese farmers starting their life here after WWII.
    The thing that helped my grandfather especially was to take advantage of every moment of everyday and he made it his mission to make a success out of himself to honor the opportunity he was afforded.
    Not sure if this will help but I hope it can help you find some solace in the moment.

    Shame is a self chosen burden that rots one's sense of worth. Keep in mind that it comes with a selfish sense of perspective that the more morally honest and upright type of people have a stubborn time changing if at all. Be as proud of yourself as you are of those who are proud of you. Be proud of the sacrifices you've made.
