  • Summary

  • Yonit Levi of Israel's Channel 12 News and Jonathan Freedland of The Guardian are two of the most prominent journalists in the world today. They are also Jews. Each week, join what MSNBC's Rachel Maddow calls "two great, smart smart smart hosts" as they dissect and debate current events shaping Israel, Jewish life - and the wider world.

    Their blend of nuanced discussion and sparkling conversation, featuring a dazzling range of guests, is why New Yorker editor David Remnick calls himself a “proud, avid listener," why Ira Glass says he "completely enjoys this show" and why Malcolm Gladwell calls it an "incredibly fun podcast".

    For a weekly fix of globally informed talk – including nominations for the greatest act of chutzpah and outstanding mensch of the previous seven days – there’s only one destination. Make every Friday morning Unholy.

    Big Fires Everywhere - with special guest Amos Harel
    Jun 14 2024

    The week began with a daring hostage rescue operation that brought four Israeli captives home, but the relief did not last long. Hezbollah rocket fire from the north is growing ever more intense, while Israel’s war cabinet saw the long-awaited exit of Benny Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot – and all while Benjamin Netanyahu and the Supreme Court remain on a collision course over the ultra-orthodox exemption from military service. Yonit and Jonathan break it all down with award-winning Haaretz military analyst Amos Harel. Plus: far right gains in Europe, street protests turn nasty in New York – and Hollywood stumbles over its founding Jewish fathers.

    No Quiet On The Northern Front - with special guest “Nas Daily”
    Jun 7 2024

    With the war in Gaza now eight months old, fears turn to the possibility of an all-out confrontation in the north - against a Hezbollah force far mightier than Hamas. Plus: Yonit and Jonathan talk to the man behind Nas Daily, the YouTuber with an audience of 70 million - on why he now defines himself not as a Palestinian-Israeli but an Israeli-Palestinian. And a conversation on how the literary world is increasingly shutting the door on Israel - and anyone connected to it. All that, plus a repeat winner of our chutzpah award - and a hearteningly crowded field in the mensch category.

    Israel GPS - with special guest Fareed Zakaria
    May 31 2024

    In a week that saw international fury over an air strike on Rafah that led to the deaths of dozens of civilians - and which came just days after an order from The Hague for Israel to halt its operations in the city - Yonit and Jonathan talk to one of America’s foremost analysts of geopolitics and CNN host: Fareed Zakaria. How might this war end? Is Israel’s isolation becoming permanent? And what difference would a returned President Trump make? Plus: a new poll dismays opponents of Benjamin Netanyahu - and a conversation with veteran Australian newspaperman Michael Gawenda on his improbable Jewish journey.

Netanyahu's PODCAST

I use to listen to this every week. I just shut it down in middle and I am ready to say goodbye. The whole podcast basically feels like news about Netanyahu. There are more political, social and civic figures in Israel that might be worth the attention. This podcast was an awesome idea. Really unfortunate that all you can talk about is one person. All your questions are about one person, you even try to drive your guests to "say something about Netanyahu". Something is rotten here.
