Aleppo's Ancient Souk

Boston Calling

Available for over a year

This week, we tour Aleppo’s ancient souk. Also, Norwegian statesman Jan Egeland gets his own rock ballad. Plus, some Bostonians try to lift Indian kids out of poverty. And we have the story of some New Yorkers who will tuck into any type of food - even duck embryo. (Image: Shops are shuttered in the souk in the old city of Aleppo.
