It seems the world doesn’t comprehend the current situation in Israel, so someone needs to explain, in English, what’s really going on here. Yoseph Haddad was busy, so we settled on the (un)suitable pair for the task - stand-up comedians Shahar Hason & Yohay Sponder.
In today’s show: Standup-comic Matan Peretz pulled up to the studio and revealed how he transformed from a comedian starting out, to a national advocate boasting millions of views and an international audience. Matan shared his experiences; from unpleasant interactions with pro-Palestinians, to his demanding military reserve duty, and a surprising friendship with American actor Michael Rapaport. Shahar is back with new-found spirit, in a direct appeal to Itzik Kala (?!) and an inspirational message to Matan about the future of Israeli comedy.
Enjoy listening!
