This is your Hasbara, in lecture format! ;P
My only complaint/suggestion for the host is: be a little more natural with your voice tone. Sometimes it is too monotone and sounds like you’re reading from a paper. A little more inflection and conversational tone would actually help listeners process your words rather than the reading-from-a-book tone.
Episodes are always on interesting and important topics. I appreciate the coverage post 10/7 as well. In this day and age it is important that the facts get out there.
Keep up the good work, it is important work and too few people are doing it!
Very informative and Entertaining
A great podcast that gives some intelligent and sober insights on what’s going on in the region.
