ALERT - Have you ever wanted to Zoom with the three of us? Or maybe even have one-on-one time? The world is now your oyster, as we have officially launched several subscription tiers, with our first Zoom taking place sometime after Thanksgiving.

These will just be starting points, as we have a bunch of additional goodies planned, so be on the lookout (but we’ll also, of course, annoy you to make sure you’re aware).”

On to the episode…

Jay kicks things off with a pop quiz that (shockingly!) doesn’t totally embarrass ChayaLeah, the Balfour Declaration gets its due, and the laughter rolls from there. Joined by journalist and historian Oren Kessler, author of the award-winning Palestine 1936: The Great Revolt and the Roots of the Middle East Conflict, the trio time-travel back to the messy, fascinating years that set the stage for everything that followed in Israel’s story.

Along the way:
🕵️‍♂️ We meet muftis, mayors, and media moguls from Mandate Palestine.
📜 Discover how the first two-state idea appeared.
💰 Learn why so many anti-Zionist Arab leaders secretly sold land to Jews.
🗞️ Unpack how newspapers (and propaganda) shaped the conflict.
🕰️ And of course, discuss how much Churchill loved Jews.

There’s banter, history, and a few “wait what?!” moments as Oren proves that real history can be just as wild as the memes about it.

So pour some coffee (or something stronger) and join us for another edJEWcational ride through the past.
