  • Where should Ashkenazi-Israelis go when the anti-zionists tell them to ‘go back to Europe’? What is (or who are?) The Elders of Zion? What happens when (hot) Rabbis do naughty things and bad TV is made about them? All of these questions are raised and most of them are answered in this week’s episode with your besties Tami and Dash.

  • Are Israel and Hezbollah on the brink of an all-out war? We confront the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah with Arab affairs expert and content creator Elhanan Miller. Elhanan sheds light on Israel's recent intelligence and military actions, the influence of Hezbollah's leader Hassan Nasrallah (who was killed in the days after the episode was recorded), and the intricate ties between Hezbollah and Iran. Lastly, we explore the complex cultural and political landscape of Lebanon and its impact on the wider Arab world. Elhanan provides insights into the sectarian divisions and historical alliances that define Lebanon's political scene, examining the role of Maronite Christians and their historical ties to Israel. Despite ongoing turmoil, he shares a hopeful vision for future peace and the role of education in achieving it.

  • Upon hearing the news of the murder of six Israelis who were held hostage in Gaza on Sept 1st, Jewish communities were thrust into mourning. Since then, it has been very difficult for many to speak about these deaths and it’s a rare gift to be able to communicate articulately while in the depths of grief. With his striking capacity for empathy and hope, TJI’s Jerusalem correspondent Ittay Flescher joined Tami and Dash to describe the despair many in Israel in the Jewish world feel.

    ‘The Holy and the Broken’ by Ittay Flescher is now available for pre-order at ittay.au It will be out in January 2025 in bookstores across Australia, published by HarperCollins.

    Ittay can also be found on social media at @ittay78 and on TJI where he writes a regular column from Jerusalem, imagining a different future for all Israelis and Palestinians.

  • The pageantry and ecstatic 'vibe' of last month's Democratic National Convention (DNC), in which Kamala Harris was certified the party's presidential nominee, belied a dark reality: American Jewish voters, once home among Democrats, are now politically homeless. That's the view of Peter Savodnik, a Washington-based journalist and senior editor for The Free Press. Peter reported on the DNC and the Republican National Convention (hello, Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock) and is increasingly troubled by what he sees on the left and the right.

    Tami and Dash caught up with Peter to get his take on the DNC, Harris's posture towards Israel and the war in Gaza, and an answer to a question that's been bugging Tami for weeks: what does Julia Louis-Dreyfus smell like?

  • There is no episode of ATA this week, so Dash spoke with Sydney-based radio and podcast producer Rob Kaldor about The Jewish Independent's four-part series Tensions Transplanted (released on 6 September).

  • British David Baddiel is a rare breed: a comedian, author, screenwriter and songwriter with an unflinching commitment to telling the truth. In his latest books, My Family and The God Desire, Baddiel shares his strange and dysfunctional upbringing and his private yearnings for the existence of a god and 'cosmic justice'. He's in Australia for the Festival of Dangerous Ideas, and joined ATA for a wide-ranging conversation about parenting, golfing memorabilia and antisemitism post-October 7. Plus, Tami shares her newfound admiration for Sydney-based klezmer outfit Chutney. And Dash dives into the nitty-gritty of Australian census data, revealing fascinating insights about the Jewish community's shifting demographics.
