We respond to your comments about the direction of the podcast, the diversity of Jewish experience, and the increased centrality of Israel of our lives. In this episode we discuss:
- How has the 18Forty mission evolved in light of changes in the world and in Jewish life?
- Is there an opposite phenomenon to “gvir culture”?
- How should we discuss important issues that are contentious and divisive, such as the Haredi draft and the identity of the messiah?
