Yechiel Jacobs shot to stardom from his hysterical takes on the lunacy of the pro-Hamas demonstrators and activists, but there's much more to Yechiel than just those takes. We sat down with Yechiel to talk about his rise to fame, how he deals with the haters, and what we can expect to see from him from here.

He's one of the most requested interviewees, and we're excited to bring it to our listeners!

As we go move headlong into Season 6 (!) Israel moves headlong into a new peace proposal put forth by the Trump Administration, accepting it immediately while it waits for Hamas to do the same. At the same time, around the world things haven't changed much: another flotilla, more bias from the UN, and New York City inches closer to electing a Socialist Anti-Israel Mayor.   But all is not lost! We are hopeful that this year is going...

It's Elul once again, and the Jewish people are introspecting, some starting slichos, and of course it's back to school. This week we begin in an unusual place - sports stories!

Hold on to your baguettes as we take a rollercoaster ride with France this week.  On the one hand, we share the frustration of having France pushing a UN resolution to recognize Palestine without so much as a “bonjour” to Israel.  On the other, we're rooting for The Macrons who are suing Candace Owens for libel, potentially costing her millions. Then we hear of a group of French teens being kicked off of a flight for supposedly sin...

So Israel was condemned by 25 nations, this time including the bulk of Western countries - but what else is new? At this point we aren't shocked by that, or the fact that the anti-Semitism is coming from all sides - the left, the right, and possibly even some inside the current US Administration.

We tackle the usual in Israel and the US but this week in our supersized-for-the-three-weeks episode we also get to do a quick taste test...

In the midst of the Three Weeks, we bring to you this amazing episode where we got to sit down with Rabbi Tovia Singer to discuss his mission of bringing back wayward Jews, as well as wayward non-Jews. Rabbi Singer is the leading voice in Orthodoxy who is almost single handedly taking on the Christian missionaries who are spending time and money attempting to lure Jews into converting to Christianity.
