How are you dealing with the clock change? We 'fell back' in Israel on October 27, and most did so in the USA a week later.

Episode #1205: Wartime Yom Kippur Reflections

Oct 13 2024 62 mins  
Whether or not you're a practicing Jew, we can all get behind the idea of praying for a good new year.

Oct 06 2024 62 mins  
Each year around this time, we look back at the most popular Israeli music of the past Jewish year. This, however, was no ordinary year. With war, hostages, loss, and fear dominating the headlines all year long, the music of 5784 had to rise to the occasion - providing comfort, strength, and inspiration. Well, sort of. While many of the year's most popular songs did just that, othe

Recorded on the day after Israel's elimination of Hassan Nasrallah, this podcast brings with it a wide range of emotions.

Episode #1198: The Whole Wide World

Jul 28 2024 65 mins  
The Summer Olympics are taking place this week in Paris, France, with the spirit of brotherhood, unity, multiculturalism, and competitiveness on full display around the world. These are values shared by every Israeli, and we wish more than anything that our biggest conflicts with other nations were settled on the playing field rather than the battlefield. Israelis love to sing abou
