And at the blink of an eye, it's summertime again and it's HOT here in the US Northeast! Still, neither heat, nor sleet, nor snow nor traveling can keep our dedicated hosts down.

It was the verdict heard throughout the world: Donald Trump guilty on 34 counts! But 34 counts.. of what?? Before the Trump haters start to celebrate it needs to be asked: what exactly was the crime, and with a whole slew of unprecedented rulings and rule changes, we ask the question: is this verdict actually a good precedent for the country? Also in this episode we explore the latest peace proposal for Gaza, the Israel Day Parade in New York City, the latest Jew to become head of state and...

As Jews worldwide celebrated Lag B'omer, war in Gaza raged on. Israel finally entered Rafah, while the rest of the world continues to condemn them and call for a ceasefire, and a de facto win for Hamas.

We sat with him and talked about his evolution, his travels and his future and had an amazing time doing it!   Watch for Ami's Band - Distant Cousins new album...

All this and the usual banter about sports, politics, and air travel as usual awaits you in this...
