For Heaven's Sake

Truly Yossi and Daniel are the “zeides” I wish I had had growing up. I find their discourse enlightening, emotionally therapeutic and provocative. Love these two!

Great episode! Sarah, I profoundly respect your journey and insights. As a”modern orthodox Zionist” with sabra grandchildren i empathize with the discomfort of labels described by Yossi, as well as his valuable insights in all of the podcasts

Love the show. Just want to add though about the comment on how diaspora Jews feel about the election. It was commented that American Jews look to Israel to be inspired and want that reflected in Israeli politics. That may be true but I want to add that many of us are seeing the once solid support for Israel withering and the issue has become so politically toxic here. We are in a place of trying to defend Israel while Bibi and the kahanist extremists he empowers make that very difficult. We are tired of having to constantly say (we don’t support the government but…). But it’s more than just making us feel isolated or leading to uncomfortable conversations: International (especially American) support for Israel is a security issue for Israel. And some of it is antisemitism but much of it is based on the decisions that Bibi et al make. We are hopeful that if/when this changes, Israel (and world Jews, not to mention Palestinians and Israeli Arabs) will all be better off.

I absolutely love listening to Yossi and Donniel they are knowledgeable and insightful. Listening to this podcast is a highlight of me and I look forward to every episode. Thank you for keeping me company on my journeys through the day
