His account provides a unique perspective on the American justice system and its treatment of espionage cases, especially those involving allies.

There are so many twists and turns to this 2-hour interview with the Notorious American Spy for Israel, Joanthan Pollard, that we broke it into 2 episodes.  Jonathan Pollard is one of the most infamous spies in US History, and after 30 years in prison, Dr. Bob sits down with him to hear the whole story.

Jonathan Pollard was an American civilian defense analyst who was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1987 for having sold classified information to Israel.  His arrest caused acute embarrassment to Israel, whose officials were caught spying on a key ally.  Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres apologized for Pollard’s activities and dissolved the scientific intelligence agency that had worked with him.

In 1984 he was assigned to the U.S. Navy’s Anti-Terrorist Alert Center. With access to all government documents that could help with his job, he contacted officials at the Israeli embassy who were connected to that country’s Bureau of Scientific Relations and began to supply them with boxes and suitcases full of information from the Departments of State, Defense, and Justice, the CIA, and the National Security Agency. 

Numerous pro-Israel groups continued to call for Pollard’s release from prison, as did Israeli officials and government leaders. In 2015 he was granted parole, and on November 20 he was let out of prison.  We interview Jonathan from his home in Tel Aviv, Israel.

Dr. Bob welcomes another very special Doctor to the program, Hematologist, Oncologist, and esteemed Medical Researcher, Dr. Aaron Goodman.  Among his many accomplishments, Dr. Goodman was a part of the Oncology team that helped save Dr. Bob's life when he had his own battle with a rare and very deadly form of cancer several years ago. 

Dr. Goodman breaks some of the inner-workings of the pharmaceutical industry including drug discovery, testing, and FDA approval.  He explains that cancer occurs when cells in the body mutate and misbehave, leading to uncontrolled growth, and the process of drug discovery, where compounds are developed to inhibit specific pathways in cancer cells. Dr. Goodman highlights the importance of distinguishing between tumor shrinkage and overall survival when assessing drug activity. He also raises concerns about the influence of pharmaceutical companies on clinical trials and the need for greater transparency and patient advocacy in the drug approval process.

Aaron speaks knowledgeably on several controversial topics including the influence of money in drug development and clinical trials, the reliability of surrogate endpoints in measuring drug efficacy, the potential biases and conflicts of interest in the pharmaceutical industry, and the role of regulatory bodies like the FDA in approving drugs with potential risks and side effects.
