In this episode of "The Nice Ashes," hosts Nate and Mike smoke a Cuban Delights premium cigar while discussing a controversial topic: Project Esther, a national strategy to combat anti-Semitism developed by the Heritage Foundation. The discussion begins with light banter about their cigars and drink pairings, leading into a deeper conversation about current events surrounding protests related to Israel and Palestine. The hosts examine the implications of Project Esther, including its aim to equate anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism, and the potential consequences for free speech on college campuses. They stress the importance of being critical thinkers amid prevailing narratives and encourage listeners to engage in dialogue about complex geopolitical issues. The episode concludes with a review of the cigar, which surprises both hosts with its quality.
