Description
Allison, Don, and Noah discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. From Board Room to Barricades: The Unlikely New Leader of Israel’s Left Avi Gabbay emerged from obscurity to head the Labor Party and, perforce, the Israeli Left in a shocking upset. What the hell just happened? Praying to No God What does the surprising rise of “secular prayer” among Israeli Jews say about the state of our souls? Jews with Javelins! The Maccabiah Games have inexplicably (but charmingly) survived the years. Like cotillions, High Table at Oxford in full medieval regalia, and Scottish weddings in kilts, the Games seem like a living time capsule. Music: Alon Eder ve-ha- lahakah, off their newest, Ha-Shamranim Shuv ba-Ofnah Al Ta-azov Oti Mili Hayu Yamim Yafim Ha-Yom be-Yisrael
