In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to a panel of rabbis about yeshiva, seminary, and the “year in Israel.” Additionally, we hear from Dov Rosenblatt, who more than two decades ago wrote the satirical song “Flippin’ Out.”
Gap-year programs have become one of the primary points of contact that American Jews have with Israel. But, paradoxically, the year in Israel is a quintessentially American experience. In this episode we discuss:
Interview with Dov Rosenblatt begins at 16:25 .
Shaalvim Dinner panel with Ari Waxman, Judah Mischel, and Gershon Turetsky begins at 33:36 .

“Flippin' Out” by Blue Fringe
Flipping Out? Myth or Fact? The Impact of the "Year in Israel" by Shalom Z. Berger, Daniel Jacobson, Chaim I. Waxman
“Why Space Tourists Won't Find the Awe They Seek” by Henry Wismayer
18Forty Podcast: “Rav Judah Mischel: A Change in Progress”
“‘Dumbed-Down Catholicism Was a Disaster’” by Molly Worthen

Gap-year programs have become one of the primary points of contact that American Jews have with Israel. But, paradoxically, the year in Israel is a quintessentially American experience. In this episode we discuss:
- What are the signs of a healthy gap-year experience?
- How can gap-year programs become more focused on Israel?
- How has the year in Israel changed in a post–October 7 world?
