Reviews

4.1 out of 5 stars from 21 ratings
  • Man, that's some intense level of "I was on the phone while I was watching the movie" energy in the discussion. Just the surface level, no insight no analysis, no critical thinking. Basically the level of insights that you expect out of soundbites from a newscast when they ask thoughts from the street.

  • An interesting way to learn some Hebrew

    Michal has a very nice way of teaching a few Hebrew words by talking about a subject in Hebrew and offering a translation. It's a good way to expand a Hebrew vocabulary or start building one up.
