Superb
Such a pleasure to listen to this podcast.
I’m not Jewish and I live in London. Nonetheless on the endlessly complex topics of Juadaism, Zionism, Israel, war and peace etc, the quality of their debate and dialogue is such that I find this show an absolute must listen.
Keep up the good work and continue to stay true to yourselves.
Wow haha
Isra*lis defending “their” country?!? How hilarious 😂
