Noah Efron, Don Futterman and Times of Israel Ops & Blogs editor Miriam Herschlag discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.

Looking for the extra segment?

The Solidarity Singularity

Has the time come for Israel's Jewish (and Zionist) left to join forces with Israel's Arab (and anti-Zionist) left? If so, how?

What, We Worry?

Left Wing or Right Wing?

For our most extremely generous Patreon supporters, we discuss in our extra-special, special extra segment a new web series about the differences between left-wingers and right-wingers. It's all in good fun, but is it also saying something serious about the state of our politics and our collective soul?
