Comedian Modi: Speaking about Oct. 7 through laughter

“The Quad” with guest Modi Rosenfeld

In this special interview on “The Quad,” Israeli innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum speaks with Jewish comedian Modi Rosenfeld about the importance of laughter and humor after the Hamas-led massacre in southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and why he remains forever optimistic.

Modi explains how he is able to speak to such diverse crowds—religious and non-religious, Jewish and non-Jewish, young and old—through the special language of comedy.
