Description

Allison Kaplan Sommer, Miriam Herschlag and Noah Efron discuss two 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   —Damn that Winged Horse!— Reports that the police used Pegasus to spy on journalists, politicians, bureaucrats, and protestors sent us through all of Kubler-Ross’s stages: Shock, Outrage, Fear, Depression, Gallows humor, More depression, Cynical tweeting and, finally, pricing old Nokia flip-phones on Ebay. —Brush Up Your Streicher!— Do Israeli high schools teach too much about the Holocaust, and in the wrong way? —The “Tinder Swindler”— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion, we ask, should the fact that the “Tinder Swindler” is Israeli worry us? All this and Wunderkind Ollie Danon!
