Streetwise Hebrew

About The Show

A bite-size podcast that discusses Modern Hebrew language gems. Host Guy Sharett explains what we can learn about Israeli psyche, society, and culture through the Hebrew language.

This Hebrew language podcast is hands-down the best of any language podcast and perhaps the most entertaining of all the Podcasts with which I'm familiar. Guy is the consummate teacher and storyteller.

There is really no place to learn the nuances and slang of modern hebrew better than this podcast. Not even your best friend could explain better than streetwise with his amazing cultural references from music and tv. Anyone curious and certainly for all Olim this should be required curriculum 🙂
