Havdalah Happy Hour (April 25, 2026)

Send us Fan MailThis week, the whole crew is back together and celebrating Yom Ha’atzmaut — Israel’s 78th birthday with all the joy, nostalgia, and spirited conversation you’d expect from Ben Kreshtool, Jill Suffel, and Cantor Emily Ellentuck.We kicked things off by reliving last week’s Epic Israel‑themed Shabbat, complete with lots of Israeli food tasting (and yes, we’re all still shocked by how much everyone tried). From there, the conversation took a wonderfully nostalgic turn into the TV shows, MTV moments, and pop‑culture gems of the 90s and early 2000s, and how wildly different things look today.Join the fun and comment below with your favorite MTV show and your favorite place in Israel — we want to hear it.And of course, it wouldn’t be Havdalah Happy Hour without our signature blessing of the week, shonda of the week, and a little weather talk to round things out.✨ Tune in and listen. Yom Ha’atzmaut Sameach!
