Allison, Don, and Noah discuss the kerfuffle between Israel’s Minister of Culture and Sport, Miri Regev, and the country’s cultural elite, who want to slice her up with rusty razors.

Regev has threatened to pull government funding from a play that offends her sensibilities, a theater director who offends her sensibilities, and a movie that offends her sensibilities. Furious artist types organize against what they call anti-democratic censorship, with one of them, in a speech along the way, calling Likud voters mindless, cultureless, cows. We try to figure out what the hell is going on.
