I listen to several podcasts a day that relate to Israel and the challenges we are facing today in the Jewish world, and I have to say that this is among my favourites. I think Manya Marcus is an exceptional host and interviewer, and I have the greatest respect for what she’s trying to accomplish.

I’m an Israeli that has listened to your podcast from the beginning. I especially like it because it’s not about taking sides, but making available the human side of these turbulent years. It has not only informed me of the atmosphere that the Jewish community is living in the diaspora,but has told the remarkable stories of Israeli’s surrounding me. Thank you for your compassionate interviews and your wonderful music at the end of every episode.
