    Ceasefire at the 11th hour - with Nadav Eyal and Mark Dubowitz

    Subscribe to Ark News Daily ____ Subscribe to Inside Call me Back to listen to our 3-part series with Ronen Bergman.  ____ Did Iran blink, or did the U.S. pull back too soon?

Dan is joined by Nadav Eyal and Mark Dubowitz to break down what was actually agreed to, why Israel’s security establishment is uneasy, and whether this pause reflects strategic success—or a missed opportunity. Is this a real off-ramp…or just a temporary pause before the next phase?

    The WHY of this year's Passover - with Rachel Goldberg-Polin

    Subscribe to Ark News Daily ____ Subscribe to Inside Call me Back ____ What does freedom mean when pain is still present? As Passover approaches, Dan Senor speaks with Rachel Goldberg-Polin about how this year’s Seder lands differently. In a moment shaped by war, loss, and uneasy relief, they explore how the rituals of Passover hold both joy and sorrow—and why that tension is the point. From the Exodus story to the symbols on the Seder table, Rachel reflects on memory, meaning, gratitude, and the challenge of holding both relief and restraint. Less about retelling the past, this conversation asks what it means to be free right now. In this episode: 02:24 – Why This Passover Feels Different 08:09 – Setting the Table: From Slavery to Nationhood 12:54 – What Actually Happens at the Seder 16:15 – The Power of Questions (and Why Answers Matter Less) 27:39 – Bitterness, Memory, and Eating Our Pain 37:06 – Relief vs. Glee: A Moral Distinction 39:06 – Dayenu and the Discipline of Gratitude This episode was sponsored by the Jewish Communal Fund.

    Why We Fight - with Micah Goodman

    Subscribe to Ark News Daily ____ Subscribe to Inside Call me Back ____ Are the stakes of the Iran war higher than Israelis understand? Micah Goodman joins Dan to try and understand the different narratives that drive this war: Iran’s war against the West, the Iranian people’s war of liberation, the United States’ paradoxical relationship with Israel, and China’s hegemonic fantasies. While Israelis are primarily concerned with guaranteeing their own safety, Micah argues that the war puts all these narratives to the test, and that the stakes of winning (or losing) the war may define the future of the balance of power around the world. In this episode: - The “Great Convergence”: Why This War Is Different - The U.S.-Israel Paradox - America First and MAGA (Can Israel’s Military Beat Conspiracy Theories?) - Trump’s War Doctrine: Strength Without Quagmire - The Global Stakes: China, Iran, and Deterrence - Zionism and the Bigger Meaning of This War This episode was sponsored by Hadassah.
