Today’s episode: 

Last week, Dan was awarded the Tikvah Fund’s 2025 Herzl Prize alongside Bari Weiss, founder and CEO of The Free Press and editor-in-chief of CBS news, and Ben Shapiro, co-founder of the Daily Wire and host of The Ben Shapiro Show. The three of them sat down for a conversation moderated by Dr. Jonathan Silver, the Chief Programming Officer of Tikvah and editor of Mosaic. They discussed a wide range of issues affecting the Jewish world, with a specific focus on the American political landscape.
