Torah Smash! The Podcast for Nerdy Jews
Episode 64 - The Good, The Bad, and The Antisemitic …With Special Guest Dr. Linda Maizels
It’s been almost a year since the attack on Israel on October 7. Since that time, it hasn’t just been the war that has taken over the news. It feels like there has been such a strong increase of antisemitism locally and around the world. We discuss centuries worth of antisemitism, we ask why it seems so acceptable today, and we try to find hope for the future. Don’t worry, there’s plenty of nerdy stuff, too. After all, we are talking about the struggle between good versus evil.
