Special Episode: David Daoud of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies
<p>Shalom Chaverim -</p><p>Today we have a special episode featuring David Daoud. Normally, my Gam v’Gam episodes are reserved for political and social discussions and debate while my On the Road to Zion episodes are reserved for more intimate conversations, we are doing both today. Because David Daoud’s personal story intertwines so much with his professional career, I felt this was a unique opportunity to combine the two. </p><p>The first half of our conversation focuses on David’s upbringing and personal journey with Judaism and then we transition into extreme depth regarding the situation in Lebanon. </p><p>David Daoud is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies focused on Lebanon and Hezbollah. He previously worked as a nonresident fellow at the Atlantic Council, director of Israel, Lebanon, and Syria research at United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI), and a research analyst at FDD. David also has experience working as a staff member on Capitol Hill providing analysis on matters related to the Middle East, Israel, and Iran.</p><p>David holds a JD with a concentration in International Law and the Laws of Armed Conflict from Suffolk University in Boston. He is fluent in Arabic and Hebrew and has spent extensive time living in the Middle East, primarily in Israel and Lebanon. His work has been cited or published in outlets including Haaretz, Foreign Policy, Newsweek, New York Times, Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal.</p><p>Chapters</p><p>00:00 Introduction to David Daoud and His Background</p><p>02:58 The Lebanese Jewish Community: History and Identity</p><p>05:54 The Impact of the Lebanese Civil War on Jews</p><p>08:39 The Decline of the Lebanese Jewish Community</p><p>11:18 Personal Reflections on Growing Up as a Lebanese Jew</p><p>14:15 Cultural Dynamics of Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews</p><p>17:06 The Evolution of Jewish Identity in Israel</p><p>20:07 The Tension Between Right and Left in Israeli Politics</p><p>22:57 The Future of Jewish Identity and Community</p><p>34:08 Exploring Jewish Prayer Traditions</p><p>37:39 Halachic Perspectives: Ashkenazi vs Sephardic</p><p>41:25 Jewish Identity and Community Dynamics</p><p>46:28 Lebanon’s Complex Historical Landscape</p><p>01:00:19 The Sectarian System and Its Challenges</p><p>01:02:25 Lebanon’s Cultural Identity: A Facade of Progressivism</p><p>01:07:55 The Rise of Hezbollah: Historical Context and Dynamics</p><p>01:18:15 Hezbollah’s Role in the Modern Geopolitical Landscape</p><p>01:28:22 Understanding the Complexity of Lebanon’s Political Landscape</p><p>01:32:55 The Role of Hezbollah in Lebanon’s Society</p><p>01:39:17 Challenges in Addressing Hezbollah’s Influence</p><p>01:47:42 Strategies for a Sustainable Future in Lebanon</p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

On the Road to Zion - Jenny Anne Hochberg
<p>Today, we speak with Jenny Anne Hochberg, a New York based actor, acting coach, content creator, and Jewish activist. We get a chance to talk about her personal journey of reconnecting with her Jewish identity following the events of October 7th, the challenges of being a Jewish actress in the entertainment industry, and the importance of activism and community support. Our conversation naturally led to one about accurate Jewish representation in media and how we can think about telling the stories of everyone who’s a member of Am Yisrael. </p><p>Jenny recently starred in the Verbatim Off-Broadway play “October 7th,” portraying a Nova festival survivor. Her screen credits include countless TV Series like “Blue Bloods,” “Law & Order: SVU,” “House of Cards,” “Parks & Recreation,” and various award-winning indie films. A trained solo improviser, known for her act “I Am Not Sara Bareilles.” She has performed nationwide at comedy festivals. Jenny also coaches actors in on camera work and audition prep. </p><p>Beyond performance, she’s a proud Jewish voice in the arts, using storytelling and social media to combat antisemitism and share stories of resilience and identity. For Jenny, art and activism are inseparable. Her content has reached 162K views per video.</p><p>Where You Can Find Jenny</p><p>Instagram: jenny.anne.hochberg</p><p>IMDB: Jenny Anne Hochberg</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://linktr.ee/JennyAH?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAdGRleAOVp1hleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA8xMjQwMjQ1NzQyODc0MTQAAae4lcnce1V9mSMJn7y_Q6lFAGsgP0z2j7f0hQiSGnZAHTaYYgQF1J6o9s4Dbg_aem_mUbmEzyEZjq-agsJNTER6Q">Check out her Reel Here!</a></p><p>Chapters</p><p>00:00 Introduction to Jenny Hochberg</p><p>02:54 Jenny’s Jewish Journey and Identity</p><p>06:11 Impact of October 7th on Jewish Identity</p><p>09:07 Experiences in the Entertainment Industry</p><p>11:53 Navigating Anti-Semitism in the Industry</p><p>14:52 Community and Activism Post-October 7th</p><p>18:07 The Role of Jewish Day Schools</p><p>21:07 Current Experiences in New York City</p><p>23:56 Reconnecting with Jewish Practices</p><p>26:52 The Future of Jewish Representation in Media</p><p>38:04 Exploring Jewish Identity in Acting</p><p>39:54 The Balance of Judaism in Character Development</p><p>42:21 Navigating Jewish Identity in Non-Jewish Spaces</p><p>44:00 The Dilemma of Jewish Representation in Media</p><p>45:53 Opportunities in Christmas Movies: A Jewish Perspective</p><p>51:21 Diversity Within the Jewish Community</p><p>55:25 The Need for Diverse Jewish Narratives</p><p>01:01:23 The Future of Jewish Identity Post-October 7th</p><p>Watch on Youtube</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

Pushing Jewish Institutions to Do Better - Shabbos Kestenbaum
<p>Shalom Chaverim -</p><p>On this episode of Gam v’Gam, I interview Shabbos Kestenbaum. You may know him only as the student who successfully sued Harvard, complains a lot on TV, and spoke at the RNC as a former Bernie Sanders supporter. What you may not know is that he has his own show on PragerU called The Brief where he interviews such people like Former Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren and provides analysis on breaking news. More importantly, you might know that Shabbos isn’t actually a MAGA fascist, and the more you get to know him, the more you realize he’s not even the bombastic personality you might assume (okay maybe I’m only talking about myself). </p><p>Shabbos is someone who believes in pushing Jewish organizations to do better because as he says at the very beginning: The better that legacy Jewish institutions, the better the American Jewish community does overall. </p><p></p><p>Where You Can Find Shabbos</p><p>X: ShabbosK</p><p>Instagram: shabboskest</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.prageru.com/shows/the-brief">The Brief on PragerU</a></p><p></p><p>Chapters</p><p>00:00 Introduction to Shabbos Kestenbaum</p><p>02:38 The State of American Jewry</p><p>06:26 Critique of Legacy Jewish Organizations</p><p>10:20 The Role of Student Activism</p><p>12:08 Free Speech and Anti-Semitism on Campus</p><p>16:57 Strategies for Combatting Anti-Zionism</p><p>20:35 The Intersection of Jewish and American Identity</p><p>27:08 Legal Action and Community Support</p><p>29:28 The Isolation of Jewish Communities</p><p>31:54 Addressing the Needs of Smaller Jewish Communities</p><p>34:23 The Importance of Jewish Day Schools</p><p>38:23 Balancing Resources Between Coastal and Non-Coastal Communities</p><p>42:58 Engaging with Smaller Communities</p><p>54:05 Proposing Solutions for Jewish Community Challenges</p><p>Watch on YouTube</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
