Listen to the extra special, special extra segment. Radical Tail Wagging a Moderate Dog? Polls show that Likud voters are socialist, gay and lesbian supporting, religious pluralists, who are far to the left of their leaders on most matters: How can this be? B2LGBTQ Hundreds of Israeli corporations rush to support LGBTQ activists after the Knesset fails to extend to gay men the right to use surrogates to bear children.

Extra Segment: Kinderguardians Come to Washington: One Congressman Seriously Hurt For our primo Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra segment, we discuss the segment of Sasha Baron Cohen’s new Showtime series, Who Is America, in which he impersonates one Col. Erran Morad, an Israeli lobbying American Republican gun rights activists and congressfolk, to adopt a faux Israeli program called Kinderguardians, aiming to arm kids tots.
