Yishai and Malkah Fleisher discuss the broad tensions between the Tel Aviv secular elites and the Jerusalem Torah followers—with a plan for how to solve it! Ben Bresky shares the story of a powerful earthquake that hit the northern city of Tzfat. Then, Rabbi Steven Pruzansky on the battle for democracy in Israel’s judiciary and Josh Reinstein on tensions in the Knesset.

“The Yishai Fleisher Show” is a popular English-language podcast exploring Israeli life, politics and Jewish thought. Drawing on his experience as a journalist, legal and biblical scholar, IDF soldier and spokesman for the Jewish Community of Hebron, Yishai sheds light on everything from global and Middle East news to weekly Bible/Torah study, health, family and, of course, the amazing rebirth of Israel.

You can listen to Yishai’s podcast on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts!
