The “Lessons of the Trumpocalypse” Edition
Allison, Noah and Tel Aviv Review host Gilad Halpern discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.
Lessons of the Trumpocalypse
In what may be a historic first of an entire podcast episode recorded in fetal position, we wonder what we Israeli leftists can learn from the painful, frightening and massive defeat of the American left this week at the polls.
Rabin Rousing
We discuss politicization of the annual Rabin Memorial Demonstration, a new phenomenon, and ask what these politics mean.
Beat the Press
We try to understand PM Netanyahu’s invective-filled tirade on a respected Israeli investigative journalist. He impugned her motives, her talents, her integrity and her suitability for her job.
