Excellent

This is an excellent podcast with such depth presented during the interviews! Shmuel’s insight, interview technique and rapore with his guests on so many topics of interest makes this one of my must listen to podcasts. So wonderful to listen to each conversation and gain more understanding through Shmuel’s guests, especially those from Israel. Please, more, more, more!
