In this Friday station, coinciding with the broadcast time of the 85th Tehran derby, we have asked you to imagine what would happen if women were present alongside men in the stadium during this match. We also tried to appropriately cover the banter between the blue and red fans. Various topics were discussed in different segments of the program, including the awards for Iranian films at the Busan and Chicago festivals, the situation of the victims of new credit institutions, the implementation of new travel regulations for direct flights to the United States, and the targeting of Iranian Android users by Telegram spyware. Throughout the program, news and events such as Hamid Baghaei's appearance in court with his basket of defenses, the continued efforts of the Guardian Council to revoke the membership of the Zoroastrian representative in Yazd City Council, a conversation with Iranian satirist Ebrahim Nabavi, and the noisy challenge of 'Blue Whale' will be presented. You can listen to the Friday station live every week from 3 to 7 PM on Radio Farda.
