    The Podcast #729 with Rachel Goldberg-Polin was so poignant and beautifully moving. She put into words many of my thoughts and feelings about loss and grief.

  • Unreal

    I have and continue to listen to this show daily since Oct. 7, and in these intervening days, weeks, and months I’ve been regularly befuddled by the extreme chasm between the way Israel is seen by the world and the way it views itself.

    For this show, in the day or so after the world walked out on Netanyahu’s UN address, to air an interview where the learned guest asks why the world hasn’t condemned the UN for its “support” or “normalization” of Hamas is about as clear cut as the metaphor can b... more

  • Lipstick and Amazon Books

    What in the world is wrong with Birramit and Amanda? Would you prefer Hamas slaughter Israelis so you can have your designer lipstick? Of course there will be austerity after the war and isolation from the world—the world prefers dead Jews, haven’t you discovered that yet? The world loves Hamas. Hide your heads in the sand and Hamas will chop them off.

  • High quality and as impartial as it gets

    Dymamic and engaging, well-produced podcast. Amanda Borschel-Dan and Jessica Steinberg do an excellent job. Love Haviv Rettig Gur and Gavriel Fiske's participations, among many others. Lazer Berman is excellent too.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Day 754 - Faking 'discovery' of a body, depraved Hamas plays to type
Q: If Israel knows the location of another, up to we're hearing nine other hostages, why is Israel not just going in to get them at this point?
The risks to soldiers' lives are too great during extraction efforts in areas not fully controlled by Israel, despite the intelligence about potential deceased hostages held by Hamas.
Day 753 - US and ceasefire partners debate what's next in Gaza
Q: Does it seem that these other countries in the US administration are understanding anew that Hamas is a terrorist organization?
While there hasn't been a shift in perspective from other countries, there seems to be a slow realization from the US about Hamas's fundamental stance.
Day 752 - Can Hamas be forced into stage two of the Trump plan?
Q: How important is regaining the bodies of the deceased hostages in terms of Jewish history and culture?
It's crucial for Jewish law and culture to ensure every body is given a proper burial as it is a religious imperative, which also provides families some closure.
Day 750 - Orna and Ronen Neutra: Their son is still in Gaza
Q: What are you doing over these last days in order to see this to the end that you're looking for?
The Neutras recount their experience and efforts related to the release of hostages and their ongoing fight for closure regarding Omer.
Day 736 - Haviv Rettig Gur: Israel's next front is its own fractures
Q: Are you finding any glimmers of strength, any glimmers of hope, even two years on here?
Gur expresses that while the situation appears bleak, Israelis have shown resilience and strength, noting their capabilities compared to their enemies.
