The "Judgement Days" Edition

Allison Kaplan Sommer, Linda Gradstein 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   —Gradually, then Suddenly, then OMG— The shocking, sudden fall of strong-man ophthalmologist Bashar al-Assad from power in Syria left Jihadist Islamists poised to replace him. What does it all means for, well, us? —Day in Court— Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu takes the stand to testify on his own behalf in his four-years-and-running bribery, fraud and breach of trust trial. What does it all means for, well, us? —Quo Vadis, Adis?— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: The renowned and storied DC Conservative Synagogue, Adis Israel, disinvites former Israeli Foreign Minister Yoav Gallant, after congregants complain about this community hosting an architect of Israel's war in Gaza, and a man indicted by the ICC for war crimes. We ask, Quo Vadis, Adis? Plus, a remembrance of the man who hanged Adolf Eichmann, and a tribute to the star quality of the impossibly-talented and enchanted daughter-of, Naomi Sommer!
