Description

Prodigal Wunderkind Ohad Zeltzer-Zubida, Allison Kaplan Sommer and Noah Efron 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   —What’s More Reasonable Than Reasonableness?— Prime Minister Netanyahu decided to move forward the judicial reform by passing a law limiting when and how judges can rule based on what seems “reasonable” to them. What, in Israel, has ever been reasonable? —No More Heroes Anymore?— Now that the writer-prophets, the Ozes and the Yehoshuas, are no longer with us, are we sailing on a ship without a moral compass? —A Fresh Perspective— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: It’s like the whole country is in a weird and dark mood. How does Ohad see things as an outsider looking in? All that and the weird interconnectedness of everything Israeli, a top drawer research organization finding Tel Aviv-Jaffa to be the happiest city on earth, and the music of rising young star Inbal Bibi!
