Ed the Sock (and Friends)

Is there hypocrisy among the anti-Israel crowd? Okay, that was rhetorical. Ed and Liana also talk about superhero fatigue, whiny Christopher Nolan and former 90210 and Sharknado star Ian Ziering being swarmed by a gang of mini-bikers. Fun for the whole family!

How many times have you been told that you're ungrateful? Has it ever made you suddenly feel grateful? Compelled gratefulness is only likely to make someone resentful, not appreciative. Liana talks about the value of sincere appreciation vs forced capitulation.

Who can combine Kang, Jonathan Majors, Aquaman, Don Cherry and Matlock, with a pinch of why Zack Snyder's movies suck, and turn it into a podcast? Ed the Sock & Liana Kerzner, in this final episode for 2023!

Over the holidays we're encouraged to be grateful for what we have, and sometimes, that's not a request, it's a demand. While feeling sincerely grateful is good for mental health, no one ever feels gratitude by force. Liana goes through where the lines are, and why gratitude can become resentment when it's not freely given.

If you're looking for another raucous, belligerent argument about the Israel/Hamas War - look elsewhere. Steven Kerzner and Stephen Lautens look at the current conflict from an unpopular position - a rational one. Frank truths are spoken about why the savage Hamas attack on October 7 has shattered Jewish people's sense of safety, why unsupported charges of war crimes against Israel matter, 'Holocaust fatigue', internal conflict among world Jewry, the real motivations of those calling for a ceasefire and ultimately, why Hamas is winning this war.

What is the 'rescuer trap' and why do so many men fall prey to it? Pretty sure you know the answer to the first part, find out about the second part to escape the cycle!

Why are people who are the most passionate about issues usually the people least informed about those issues?

The Israel/Hamas war - Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner support Israel's right to self-defence but find many faults in the way it's carrying it out.

Looking for talk about the Israel/Hamas war that isn't the usual talking points? We got it for right here!

Probably more than you think - and what you can do about it!
