About this episode
Miriam Herschlag, Don Futterman and Noah Efron discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. Listen to the Extra-Special, Special Extra Segment on Patreon —No Place for Politics— Yad Vashem won't host a speech by Volodymyr on the grounds that there's no place for politics when it comes to the Holocaust. But that can't be right, can it? —Was Pegasus Just Horsefeathers?— Eight weeks after it was called "maybe the most important story in Israel's history," reports that police used spy software to surveil all sorts of innocent people has disappeared from our minds and our newsfeeds. What happened? —Amalek— Has the time come to retire the notion of Amalek, absolute and evil anti-semites who appear in each generation in a different guise? —Purim Love— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion, we talk about how we learned to stop worrying and love Purim. All this and Hila Cohen Elazar, celebrating her new record!
