For several decades, Bahram Moshiri’s cultural and literary activities have revolved around his unwavering commitment to rationalism, anti-superstition, and the critique of authoritarianism. He boldly addresses a plethora of topics in his programs, which are broadcast through radio, television, and the internet.
