I’m French and I’m not Jewish and I looooooove your podcast. I always learn a lot and your guests are the best. Thank you for your work!
I’m not Jewish, but I find this podcast incredibly interesting in how it gives me a very specific insight into some big world events that are going to be some of the defining issues of our age, but also lovely insights into the beauty and diversity of Judaism.
