Today Dirty Linen speaks to Arslan Mukhtar, ex-assistant manager at Red Spice Road. Arslan is now a frontline worker in hotel quarantine. The podcast is a great chat but I was also very moved by something Arslan said after we stopped recording. He told me that the people staffing hotel quarantine are largely overseas nationals on temporary visas. Arslan said he is not unusual in that he is restricting his own after-hours socialising as an added layer of protection for the community. The community, that is, that failed to look after him through the pandemic.\n\nFollow Dirty Linen on Instagram\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en\n\nFollow Dani\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/danivalent\n\nFollow Deep In The Weeds on Instagram\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en\n\nFollow Rob Locke (Executive Producer)\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/\n\nFollow Huck (Executive Producer)\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/
