Allison Kaplan Sommer, Don Futterman and Noah Efron discuss discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. --And It’s One, Two, Three, What Are We Fightin’ For? (with apologies to both Country Joe and the Fish)-- Huge, angry demonstrations demand that Netanyahu do something about Israel’s economic crisis. But what? --Judging Judges: A Judgmental Judgment-- What’s wrong with judging judges? --And a River Runs Through It-- A kibbutz bars folks from a nearby town from picnicking on the banks of a river that winds through its grounds. Is that o.k.? --Is There Any Way to Get Away With a Little Getaway?-- For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: Summer is here, and we all deserve a vacation. Hotels at the Dead Sea are sold out, and little getaway love-nest cabins up north are getting booked up fast. But is a corona vacation a vacation at all? We share our plans for the summer (concluding that, getaway or no getaway, there’s no way to get away). All that and Avoda Zmanit! |
