    Israel's government is put to the test by haredi draft, Rabbi Law, Ben-Gvir

    Israel's government is put to the test by haredi draft, Rabbi Law, Ben-Gvir

    The Jerusalem Post Podcast with Tamar Uriel-Beeri and Sarah Ben-Nun.

    The Jerusalem Post political correspondent Eliav Breuer sat down with Tamar Uriel-Beeri and Sarah Ben-Nun on The Jerusalem Post Podcast to explain the two hot button issues that have shaken Israel's lawmakers in the last week.

    The first big issue is the controversial Rabbi Law and the second big issue that made waves in the Knesset this week was the Ben-Gvir Law.

    What makes this so important is that the haredi draft issue is causing the cracks in the coalition to show, since the coalition members include secular lawmakers who are not excited about haredim not going to the army. 

    In addition to this discussion, Sarah Ben-Nun interviews memory researcher Itay Aniel. Aniel specializes in memory optimization and brain training, which means teaching people ways to increase their memory capabilities and cognitive functions.

Excellent production value & fun travel experiences

Mark and David explore some of the most interesting destinations on the planet in their travel episodes. I love how they record in the middle of their travels so that you can hear the sounds of each city. It feels like you're right there with them. The quality of the production is top-notch as they seemlessly transition from one experience to another. I subscribe and so should you.

Insufferable Host

This podcast has great interviews and worthwhile insight but I find the theater-kid host to be insufferable. She makes light of so much of the conversation. She interrupts constantly and is very defensive over the smallest things. And there is so much personal sentiment and anecdotes peppered in that you have to filter through to get the “true story.” I find Haaretz to be a much more sober and professional production but JPost has equally good interviewers and intervieweesz

A Great Travel Resource

I’ve been enjoying listening to the Travel Edition with Mark and David. The episodes are informative, and I especially enjoy the quiz questions.
