    Beyond Anne Frank: The Jew in Dutch Cinema

    Can films reveal what a nation really believes about itself? For decades, Dutch cinema told one story about its Jews. Then, slowly, that story began to change. This week, Dr. Eyal Boers, head of Film and Television at Ariel University, takes us on a fascinating journey through more than a century of Dutch cinema, showing how films have reflected—and shaped—the Netherlands' evolving relationship with its Jewish community, the Holocaust, national identity, and Israel. Why did Jewish characters move from being outsiders to symbols of national guilt? Why does Anne Frank loom so large over Dutch filmmaking? And what does today's portrayal of Israelis reveal about contemporary Europe? It's a conversation about cinema—but even more, it's about memory, identity, and the stories societies tell themselves. Check out Dr. Boers book, The Jew in Dutch Cinema: Images, Stereotypes and National Identity.

    The Arab King and the American Republic

    How does a Western-educated king survive — and thrive — in the political chaos of the Middle East for more than 25 years? Aaron Magid, a journalist formerly based in Jordan, discusses his book The Most American King: Abdullah of Jordan, exploring the fascinating story of Jordan's King Abdullah II: a monarch shaped by American culture, dependent on American support, yet ruling one of the region's most fragile and strategically vital countries. From Georgetown and Star Trek to Gaza, the Arab Spring, ISIS, Trump, Obama, and the future of the Hashemite Kingdom — this conversation dives deep into the balancing act that has kept Jordan stable while the region around it burns. Why does Washington invest billions in Jordan? How "American" is King Abdullah really? Can authoritarian stability survive economic despair? And how has Jordan managed to weather every regional storm? A timely conversation about power, survival, diplomacy, and the quiet importance of Jordan in Middle Eastern politics.

    A Nightmare on Herzl Street

    Olga Gershenson, professor of Jewish and Near East Studies and Film Studies at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, explains how a generation raised on VHS, torrents, and global cinema reinvented horror in Israel—turning familiar tropes into sharp, funny, and deeply local cultural critique. From "Hebraizing" zombies to exposing the absurdities of military life, Israeli horror is anything but escapist—it's subversive, original, and long overdue. Why did it take so long for horror to emerge in Israeli cinema—and why did it suddenly explode in the 2010s? Her book, New Israeli Horror: Local Cinema, Global Genre, is available here: https://websites.umass.edu/newisraelihorror

    Bubbe-Meises for the Masses: A Gendered Reading of the US Yiddish Press

    Did you know that a Yiddish newspaper once had a larger circulation than The New York Times? At the turn of the 20th century, the Yiddish press in America wasn't just a news industry — it was the beating heart of immigrant Jewish life. Newspapers didn't just report the news; they offered advice, shaped politics, and helped newcomers navigate a bewildering new society. In this week's episode, historian Ayelet Brinn joins us to discuss her award-winning book A Revolution in Type: Gender and the Making of the American Yiddish Press. Among the fascinating stories we explore: • Why men sometimes wrote under female pseudonyms just to get published • How "women's columns" became unexpected spaces for radical political ideas • The strange linguistic world of early Yiddish journalism — where the same word might be spelled differently in the same article • And how immigrant newspapers became guides to everyday life, with readers even showing up at editorial offices for personal advice. What emerges is a portrait of a vibrant media ecosystem where journalism, politics, gender, and immigrant identity collided in surprising ways. If you were a newly arrived immigrant a century ago, would you trust a newspaper to guide you through daily life?
