🎙️ Emergency Episode – Live from Israel
In this urgent new episode of The Schmooze, Don joins us live from Tel Aviv after waking up to air raid sirens marking the start of Operation Roaring Lion.
Over the past 36 hours, he’s gone to a bomb shelter more than 30 times. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, he shares what it’s like on the ground right now — the sirens, the uncertainty, the tragic losses, and the remarkable calm and resolve of everyday Israelis.
We discuss:
• What daily life looks like between alerts
• The Home Front Command warning system
• The mood in Israel right now
• Iranian civilians protesting their regime
• Media narratives abroad
• What strength, resilience, and Zionism mean in this moment
This episode is emotional, honest, and deeply personal. It’s not analysis from afar — it’s lived experience in real time.
🎧 Listen now and share with someone who wants a clearer picture of what’s happening.
