Episode 115 - Encampments And Gravel Pits
Noam and Jen chat about Kristi Noemâs insane story about how she shot a puppy instead of doing literally anything else, lore from election years past, the escalation of campus encampment protest, when calling the police is and is not warranted, body cam videos, the possibility of Donald Trump having to submit a picture of his junk in his criminal trial, and âJewsâ who donât seem to know how Pesach works.

Episode 114 - Exodus 20:24
Jen and Noam revisit the Iran - Israel conflict now that Israel retaliated by coming thisclose to hitting a nuclear facility in Iran, Ukraine finally getting funding from the US, how stupid the Chaos Caucus looks now that they achieved absolutely nothing, the rapidly escalating antisemitic protest situation at Columbia and who is responsible, and our thoughts on Civil War.
Also, Jen makes the Pesach discovery that matzo sheets can be turned into damn near anything with enough imagination and water.Â

Episode 113 - Iran Joins The Chat
Noam and Jen try to make sense of Iranâs drone/missile strike on Israel, Hamas walking back their own death toll count in Gaza, what happens when youâre filmed tearing down hostage posters, and what happens when you threaten an elected official in real life.

Episode 112 - The Unaccountability Gap
Jen and Noam make it back in front of their mics to talk about the IDF holding itself accountable for its WCK screwup, Jen messing up the WCKâs name a few times, absolutely illogical statements and theories that fall apart under basic rationality, the lack of accountability from literally anyone else anywhere, university students being held accountable for breaking the law, ads in ASMR videos, and our final thoughts on season one of Three Body Problem.

Episode 111 - Riding The Twitter Brainworms
Noam and Jen discuss brainworms. All the brainworms. From the insane DoorDash Discourse and how it has pitted the âfood delivery is exploitativeâ crowd against the âhow dare you discriminate against disabled peopleâ crowd, how the terrorist attack in Moscow was done by anyone other than the ISIS group that committed it, and Candace Owens finally getting shown the door at Daily Wire for leaning a bit too far into conspiracy theories.
They also spent some time discussing the Netflix adaptation of The Three Body Problem and the changes made to make the story work better in a TV show format.Â

Jen and Noam discuss Westerners not being impressed with the MREs that the US has airdropped into Gaza, a continuation and deeper dive into our thoughts on the TikTok divestment bill, and everyone - once again - getting worried about the wrong thing when it comes to the words coming out of Trumpâs mouth.

Customer Reviews
Great podcast.
I like their versatility, smarts and humor. Wish it were more frequent.
Noam is great.
End of review.
Good idea poorly executed
The hosts donât seem to put much thought into their discussion before they hit record. Iâm sorry to say but Jen really only ever adds âuhhh yeah thatâs just not ok!â And then some frustrated noises. Would appreciate a slightly deeper analysis.
