  • Summary

  • Yonit Levi of Israel's Channel 12 News and Jonathan Freedland of The Guardian are two of the most prominent journalists in the world today. They are also Jews. Each week, join what MSNBC's Rachel Maddow calls "two great, smart smart smart hosts" as they dissect and debate current events shaping Israel, Jewish life - and the wider world.

    Their blend of nuanced discussion and sparkling conversation, featuring a dazzling range of guests, is why New Yorker editor David Remnick calls himself a “proud, avid listener," why Ira Glass says he "completely enjoys this show" and why Malcolm Gladwell calls it an "incredibly fun podcast".

    For a weekly fix of globally informed talk – including nominations for the greatest act of chutzpah and outstanding mensch of the previous seven days – there’s only one destination. Make every Friday morning Unholy.

    Strange Days Indeed
    May 17 2024

    There’s a lot for Yonit and Jonathan to unpack this week, following two especially intense ceremonial days in Israel. They discuss a split-screen Independence Day, a pointed Memorial Day address - and the prime minister who was nowhere to be seen. Plus: what exactly is Benny Gantz doing in Benjamin Netanyahu’s government- and a highly charged week in the information war. And there’s a bumper crop of awards nominees: a singer, a comedian and a guitarist with an unlikely day job.

    May 10 2024

    As Joe Biden withholds a crucial arms shipment, Yonit and Jonathan discuss a new low in Israel’s relationship with its most important ally. They talk to Israel’s foremost Hamas watcher, Dr. Michael Milshtein, about Rafah, the ceasefire that never was and who - if anyone - will be able to claim victory when the fighting finally stops. Plus: Eurovision - and a chutzpah award winner who really needs to read more.

    May 3 2024

    In a week when the Gaza conflict seemed to be relocated to the lawns of America’s Ivy League campuses, Yonit and Jonathan talk to Columbia student Noa Fay and to Maya Ilany of Harvard - followed by a conversation with award-winning columnist Hadley Freeman about her new essay on October 7 and the left. Plus: an update on renewed efforts to broker a ceasefire deal and hostage release, and the perennial indecision of Benjamin Netanyahu.

Netanyahu's PODCAST

I use to listen to this every week. I just shut it down in middle and I am ready to say goodbye. The whole podcast basically feels like news about Netanyahu. There are more political, social and civic figures in Israel that might be worth the attention. This podcast was an awesome idea. Really unfortunate that all you can talk about is one person. All your questions are about one person, you even try to drive your guests to "say something about Netanyahu". Something is rotten here.
