- Noam Weissman unpacks things so well
Noam has such a great attitude. Very open minded and willing to look at all sides of an issue. Passionate, honest and eternally curious, he asks questions I would not know enough to ask and looks at topics I would not have thought of focusing on. Indispensable resource for anyone who genuinely wants to understand.

I’m married to a Jew, and I’ve been wanting to find something that tells me more about their history, but especially the formation of Israel. I just finished episode 3, and it’s very well done. I like that each episode isn’t too long, and it covers one area so that it’s easy for me to keep track of what’s being covered. I’m so glad I found you!!

My friend recommended this podcast to me to learn a little bit more about Israeli history.

I still have one big question, and I am hoping my mind will be more settled regarding claiming land based on biblical interpretation. My mind is quite closed on that... I look forward to learning more about the archeological findings. If you have the time to direct me... more

I am learning a lot about Israel history, society and current events. Great expert voices. Incredibly insightful, constructive, balanced, factual (shows complexity, clarifying misconceptions, supporting the understanding of Israel as a nation, Zionism). Thank you for your work!
