  • Very Thought Provoking

    Just discovered this recently. I have only listened to the most recent podcast on Israeli Exceptionalism.

    Many interesting/t, houghtful observations.

    I have tried to interest others I know here in America with an interest in Israel today/now.

    Regrettably, most are persuaded that they already know enough.

  • Always thoughtful and memorable

    What I love about the show is the amount of space given to the guests to unfurl their thoughts ... this is slow dialogue that goes in depth ... a wonderful relief from caffeinated combat journalism.
