Noah Efron and journalist-extraordinaire Linda Gradstein discuss two topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. Hear the Extra-Special, Special Extra Segment on Patreon   —Can’t Spell “Minister Ben Gvir” Without “Bite Me”— Minister Ben Gvir?!? —This Time, It’s Personal— Anything wrong with tidying up a ‘Basic Law’ so Aryeh Deri can become a minister just four years after admitting to tax evasion? —Good Wine Can’t Possibly Be Bad for Me!— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: With such good Israeli wine, why ever get sober? All that and a remembrance of Amnon De Hartog, plus Tom Schneid, the “first queer rapper” since the Torah was given at Sinai!
