Today we welcome Jonathan Chesner to the garden 🌱 the face behind Amuze for a candid, unfiltered conversation about one of the most age-old yet suddenly trending topics: antisemitism.

In this episode, we break down how antisemitism is showing up right now, why the current approach to “combating” it often misses the mark, and what we believe actually does (and doesn’t) help. With hot takes, uncomfortable truths, and zero sugarcoating, we explore why this hatred exists in every generation, how it’s being handled today, and what needs to change moving forward.

Jonathan shares firsthand experiences from living in Milan while visibly Jewish, including the looks, confrontations, and realities of wearing a kippah daily. It’s honest, educational, sometimes heavy, but ultimately empowering. This episode is about clarity, courage, and rethinking how we fight back.
