“A Muslim & A Jew Go There” is a brand new podcast produced by Instinct Productions, hosted by comedian David Baddiel (author of “Jews Don’t Count”) and politician Sayeeda Warsi (“Muslims Don’t Matter”) who will take on whatever controversy hits the headlines each week, providing context and discussion around current political and cultural events involving and affecting British Muslims and Jews.
Covering topics from antisemitism in the Labour party and Islamophobia in the Conservative Party to debating concepts like “racism hierarchies”, “non-visible minorities” and “victim olympics”, as well as tropes and stereotypes, and the Middle East and its impact on Jewish and Muslim communities in Britain, this topical, often funny podcast will go there in a way others might not dare.

Why did the Jew cross the road…at Saturday’s Palestine protest? Columbia campus wars and defining Islamophobia
David and Sayeeda discuss the pro-Palestinian protests in London where the head of the Campaign Against Antisemitism clashed with police, as well as chaos on campus at Columbia University across the pond.
Are antisemitism and Islamophobia being ‘weaponised’ to shut down debate about Israel and Islam? And is having an ‘Islamophobia’ definition doing more harm than good, asks a top think tank?

Listener Questions: Do Muslims care more about Palestine than Yemen, China, Myanmar? Can we criticise Israel without being called antisemitic? How should Israel protect itself from Hamas?

Q&A with timecodes
Are Muslims exposed to more racism in the UK today versus Jews? (0:54)How can Israel protect itself from Hamas without causing a catastrophe in Gaza? (10:55)Could every Jew or Muslim who has the potential for dual citizenship potentially be deprived of their citizenship if the government of the day decides they have committed a crime incompatible with British citizenship? (23:22)Why don't British Muslims and Muslims worldwide collectively mourn for the 377, 000 Muslims recently killed in the current war in Yemen or China, or Pakistan or Myanmar in the same way that they mourn the deaths in Palestine? (33:30)If I condemn Israeli policy regarding settlements, does that make me an anti Semite? (45:28)If David believes in the continued right of Israel to exist, does that not make him a Zionist? (55:20)
