Tickling Giants is a song in English and Arabic, and the title track to the movie Tickling Giants, the documentary about Bassem Youssef. At the start of the Arab Spring in Egypt, Bassem decided to leave his job as a heart surgeon to become a late-night comedian. We hope Tickling Giants inspires you to find a creative, non-violent way to protect free speech and fight abuses of power. Sara Taksler is a Senior Producer at The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
