Ep. 13: Gil Troy & Getting 'Drunk' on Zionism

On season 2, episode 2, host and CEO of Israel Innovation Fund Adam Scott Bellos is joined by guest Gil Troy, historian and author of "Theodor Herzl Zionist Writings.” The three-volume work features 11 years’ worth of Herzl’s writings, including his personal journal, articles and plays, all relating to the formulation of his dream of a Jewish state.

Troy and Bellos discuss the book over a glass of the "argaman" wine, Israel's highest-rated wine in 2022.

They discuss

• How Zionism was Herzl's play that rocked the world
• His criticism of the Rothchilds and uber-wealthy Jews.
• Herzl's "leap of hope" and what it means for the world today.

Relax and drink from the wells of a 4000-year-old tradition and history!
