“I found your podcast as a non-Jewish American trying to make sense of 10/7. I’ve read about Palestinians for about 15 years and how modern Israel began. I wanted to hear Jewish people wrestle with the attack, living with people of the 3 main religions side by side, but mostly the wrestling. This...”Read full review »

“Thank you Donielle and Yossi, your weekly insights help me make sense of the war, help me see through my emotions and help me see perspectives that had hitherto eluded me. I look forward to being together this summer at the Community Leaders program in Jerusalem at the end of June. Your podcasts...”Read full review »

I have yet to discover a better discussion, a better window into the Jewish Israeli space, than the one Donniel and Yossi have on each of their podcasts: constructive,...”Read full review »

“These two exceptional Jewish thought leaders bring their fullest intellect, hearts, souls, and savvy to unpacking critical aspects of the current situation in Israel. I appreciate so many elements of this podcast, and it has truly been a lifesaver for me emotionally. It has been nearly impossible...”Read full review »

“As a characterized gentile I appreciate the level of insight this podcast is affording me. I love Israel and know I have Israeli blood in my veins as a decedent of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Current events play out yet another chapter in the gathering of Israel and I love it that victimization...”Read full review »

“Thank you for bringing moral underpinnings back into the conversation. It tickled that acute discomfort I feel as an American Jew, who understood the victim narrative, but has now has turned into a queasy standoff within myself.
I have no comfortable arguments left without clearly acknowledging...”Read full review »

“This episode today was wonderful. Most episodes look back, look at now, look forward, and that’s as it should be. This one had a historical view that I resonated with so strongly. Now I am gong to tell a story of my own experience. In 1982, I was a student at Boston University. The first Lebanon...”Read full review »

The past two shows (on The Hague and on Religious Messianism) have been exceptionally informative and the openness of the exchange between the hosts was illuminating.
Sometimes I feel that Donniel talks...”Read full review »

“Donniel and Yossi provide a superb counterbalance on the most gripping issues. Even after Oct 7th, it's not just the war, it's the many moving parts in and around it. They deal with even the most painful and often especially the most painful issues. Painful to themselves. Sometimes...”Read full review »

“A friend turned me onto this pod. Really appreciate the deep, heartfelt conversation from two wise older Jews living in Israel. AND, it’s really painful to listen to Donniel Hartman constantly interrupting to make his point. He’s not a good listener, has to always have the last word, and...”Read full review »

Keep up the good work...”Read full review »

“How can it be said that the Israeli government was elected by a majority of the people? Did the current PM win a majority of the vote, did his party win a majority of the vote, did the coalition win a majority of the vote? My understanding is that the answer is no to all three questions.
Wait...”Read full review »

“The discussion about the future of Liberalism in Israel did more than “tap” my left chord. It allowed me to consider the inner voices in a coherent manner; a deep melancholy as to the ability of Israel to seek notes of commonality. This podcast, the institute, is more important than ever. Amidst...”Read full review »

“While I do appreciate your coverage of the attack on two Bar and one Bat Mitzvah celebrants at the wall by Haredim, you leave out misogyny! The haredim have been violent toward women praying at the wall for decades. You cannot analyze the problem and not mention women in an hourlong discussion.”
