Summary

Neighbors Amy and Dor meet for the first time in the early afternoon, seeking shelter at mutual friends during a tumultuous October 7. Later that evening, fueled by a mix of shock and spirits, they decide to start recording. When they recorded this episode, Amy and Dor didn't yet know the dimensions of this fever dream, that this was the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust, or the bloodiest in Israel's history. But they knew that this was different. That this was big, a cataclysmic event, a defining moment in the lives of Israelis and Jews around the world. That evening, they found solace in recording, in anise-flavored spirits and in each other, oscillating between the deeply personal and the broadly political. This episode is a snapshot of a moment in time, like looking back at a different world, which is weird to say, because two months in, there are still 136 hostages in Gaza. The war rages on. It's still happening, still unfolding, and more grim details are coming out all the time. All this to say, please bear with them. They're still figuring it out, and they're weird, of course they are. Special thanks to Maya Schlesinger for the cover art & Gabrielle Briner for the recap.Recorded on October 7 (Day 1).Thanks for tuning in! 🗣️ If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and share.
