Loved the Hebrew version and enjoy the English one for some years already. Living in Europe, wartimes stories really helped me feeling connected and getting so different views and insights. Thank you for the great job!

I have a been a long-time fan and cannot say enough about how interesting and varied the stories are including the series on the Declaration of Independence, the Jerusalem YMCA, etc. Your pivot to the War Time Diaries is so right for the moment. Not only are the stories captivating but all of...Read full review »

I am Dutchbat and this podcast tells me what really is honing on in Israël. In Holland is al jahzeera the main information on wich the journalists and most people base their opinion.

Thank you for these stories, I have been listening to people telling us about their lives and that of their loved ones destroyed by 7 October massacre, so heartbreaking and devastating. My heart goes out to them, thank you for this powerful production

Excellent series … and I also really enjoy the beautiful songs at the end. If possible, it would be great if you could mention the artist and the song and maybe provide a link. Thanks!

I found this podcast through Israeli Aliyah resource. The stories cut across the diversity of the Jewish people and their history. It is beautifully created and presented. The stories relevant and inspiring. You will be entertained and inspired by the depth and creativity of each episode.

The hate speech against religious jews (especially one specific expression) by Ben-Gurion’s grandson in episode 81 shouldn’t and (so far) doesn’t mach your show’s standard’s!
Honest reviewer 1234 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/23
Such a range of stories. A wonderful way to connect with Israel. Thank you.

It just keeps getting better. This latest episode had me in tears, both of joy and sorrow. Amazing storytelling!
Sashapave via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/14/23
Excellent range of topics, thoroughly researched, beautifully edited. Mishy and crew move me to tears (good tears!) EVERY single time.
Jko7777 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/23
I like this podcast very much. Started by going to the beginning of the episodes and working my way forward each morning during my daily workouts. I’ve been to Israel many times and this show has taught me a lot- I want to visit some of the sites mentioned on my next visit. Thanks!

Very moving. One minor critic: please don’t speak the name of the suicide murderer. Don’t give him that honor. Just refer to such people as “the suicide bomber” or “murderer.” Don’t give him fame. Thanks.

Just a catholic Argentinian living in Australia who’s fallen in love with Judaism and Israel as a result of finding this podcast and it’s amazing stories. Looking forward to visiting Israel soon.

I thoroughly enjoy these podcasts. The topics are interesting and the interviews are well done. Production and music are great.

Love this podcast!
yakobovitch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/22
After listening to all of “This American Life” episodes at least twice, I have been thirsty for more. This podcast openly acknowledges it’s a copy replacing America with Israel. The stories are equally interesting but the host does lack the charm Ira Glass brings. Still it is worth the listen!
simplymeintx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/21
I can't get enough of the stories and the way they are narrated. If you are fan of This American Life, and care about Israel, this is for you. (And the host has a sexy voice!)Read full review »

One of the best podcasts I have ever heard, heartfelt stories of people linked together. Highly recommend
i_jonog via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/06/21
I am a latecomer to the Israel Story. I started with Episode 1 and listen during my daily walk. I have never been disappointed and often find myself laughing or deeply immersed in thought. Never stops providing new insight to Israel. Highly recommended!!

Dear Israel Story You guys have been quiet a long time, since the vaccinations began? And now the war. Please give us, your adoring fans, a sign of life from Israel,,
Ani from Namibia via Apple Podcasts · Malawi · 05/15/21
For any Israelphile or anybody at all that loves a good story, this podcast rises above others. I can’t believe how good it is: interesting, engaging and at times inspiring. Every aspect of it is highest quality: sound, production, but most of all story-telling and lack of politicization (which...Read full review »

The advertising in the beginning, in the middle and the end is really annoying.
carlibond via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 04/14/21
LOVE Israel Story: relevant, interesting, well-written, and well-produced. Listening to Israel Story makes me feel closer to Israel and constantly introduces me to people and ideas I wouldn’t have encountered otherwise. Bravo!
Robbie Schaefer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/21
Israel stories are some of the most entertaining, emotional and educational hours we spend. We can’t wait for every new episode and season. Not to be missed—ever
skokie lupo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/21
Israel Story is “the Israeli version of This Israel Story is “the Israeli version of This American Life”. Unfailingly heartwarming, excellent production values.

I listen to a number of podcasts daily, Rachel Maddow, Anderson Cooper, The Morning Show, Chris Cuomo, The Takeout, while I get ready for work, commute, walk the dog, bike ride cook and do dishes, you name it and I am almost always on a podcast. This is my total favorite. I laugh out loud, I have...Read full review »

This podcast never disappoints. I’m always entertained and educated by these stories.
mkoven via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/21
I generally don’t listen to podcasts. I don’t have a commute really, and I like listening to music when I exercise. However, there is one podcast that I am continually drawn to - obsessed with, actually - and that’s Israel Story. I’ve spent a lot of time in Israel, and I cherish the nuances, the...Read full review »

Each week I look forward to meeting new Israelis and hearing their remarkable and entertaining stories. Some of these remain with me pretty much permanently. Beautifully produced.

I love Israel Story! Each episode is so beautifully choreographed and narrated. The story telling is warm and genuine. Each story is a window into Israel. The stories are authentic and heartwarming, real people telling real stories. The next best thing to being there.
