Miriam Herschlag and Noah Efron talk about 1) The imposed cease-fires, and whether Israelis ought to worry we’re becoming a vassal state, and 2) What explains why an IDF soldier thought it was right, or maybe just amusing, to take a sledgehammer to a statue of Jesus in a yard in a village in Lebanon.
Plus the joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Ceremony, an out of control bus-driver, and the lovely debut record of rising-star Noa Carsenti.

Very disappointed that Baskin is behind your paywall.
Hi Dan — I hear you, and I really appreciate you listening and caring enough to say something.
We try very hard to keep the main podcast completely free and accessible to everyone. At the same time, the reality is that producing the show week after week — at the level we aim for — depends purely on listener support. Our patrons, especially those in the Extra Segment tier, are actually the single most important source of funding that makes the entire podcast possible.
The extra segment is our way of saying thank you to the people who choose to support the show financially and help keep it going.
That said, we truly value all our listeners, including you, and we’re glad you’re with us — paywall or not.
