This is our first guest from...Gaza. Meet Lama Dalloul. Lama is a Palestinian woman who lived under Hamas rule and chose to speak out after October 7. She shares what daily life in Gaza was really like, why many Gazans are afraid to criticize Hamas, and what happened after she posted her views on TikTok.
She explains the threats she received, the risk of speaking openly, and why she rejects antisemitism and refuses to blame Jewish civilians for the war. She also discusses escaping Gaza, the financial and emotional cost of leaving, and how the conflict impacted her faith, family, and future.
This episode focuses on firsthand testimony, free speech in Gaza, Hamas and civilian life, Israel–Gaza realities, and the human cost of war.

This episode addresses the reaction that followed Nissim Black becoming Jewish. It also follows the discourse around how antisemitism intensified, including controversies involving Kanye West and Candace Owens. It looks at how those conversations spilled into everyday interactions, changing how people spoke, distanced themselves, or made assumptions. The focus is on identity, conversion, social consequences, and the choice to speak plainly rather than retreat or self-censor.

Batyah had everything in her life, a close family, a successful career, and a deep connection to Christianity. Then one day, her pastor stood before the congregation and admitted that everything he had been preaching was false. In that moment, her entire world collapsed. But even in the confusion, she felt certain that God was real. She just needed to find the truth.
Her search led her to explore Judaism. It meant walking away from her career and leaving her family behind as she traveled from the Philippines to Israel. She took on a cleaning job, a role that was humbling and incredibly difficult, but she accepted it with a simple thought: if this is what Hashem wants from me right now, I’ll do it.
From there, her path only grew stronger. She converted to Orthodox Judaism, married an Israeli man who grew up in a very charedi neighborhood, and today she is a proud Jewish influencer living in the United States. Her journey is raw, brave, and full of faith.

Survivor Omer Wenkert recounts his 505-day Hamas captivity, including 197 days in total isolation underground after being kidnapped from the Nova Music Festival on October 7. He endured torture, starvation, and psychological abuse, yet found faith, resilience, and hope in God. His powerful testimony of survival, Jewish identity, and belief in peace despite trauma sheds light on the human cost of terror, mental endurance, and spiritual transformation under unimaginable darkness.

Eliya Cohen was kidnapped by Hamas and held hostage in Gaza for 505 days. Ziv Abud survived the October 7 massacre by hiding in a bomb shelter, believing Eliya was gone, while he had no idea she was alive. Captivity, survival, faith, emunah, bitachon, tefillah, unanswered prayers, hope, trauma, resilience, Jewish strength, love, and miracles all collide in one story. Today, against every odd, they are engaged to be married. A true story of survival, faith in God, and love that endured Hamas terror, war, and darkness.

Rabbi Reuven Feinstein, Rosh Yeshiva of Staten Island and one of the Gedolei Hador, looks back on his childhood growing up in the Bronx, just blocks from Yankee Stadium - where he was beaten for wearing a yarmulke and learned early what it meant to live with emunah and dignity. In this raw and moving conversation, he shares memories of his father, Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, the Gadol Hador, describing a home with no ga’avah, no pretense - just Torah, humility, and love. He speaks about antisemitism in 1940s America, the lessons of parenting, leadership, and humility, and how his father’s approach to Torah learning and chesed shaped generations. From stories of the Shabbos table, to his views on mental health, modern challenges, and faith under pressure, this interview is a living portrait of Torah greatness, Jewish resilience, and quiet strength in a world that often forgets both.

Rabbi Eli Riesel was a working professional who walked away from everything to return to kollel. What followed was not inspiration overnight, but a life turned completely upside down. He found himself buried under debt projected to last up to 85 years, facing legal pressure, personal collapse, and a future that seemed impossible to escape. As his situation spiraled, he encountered a challenge far greater than money or reputation. Against the unanimous advice of his lawyers, Rav Chaim Kanievsky gave him guidance that defied logic and conventional strategy. Rabbi Riesel faced an impossible choice. Would he listen to the gadol hador, or follow the system that promised safety? His decision led him through federal prison, deep spiritual reckoning, and a survival story few have ever heard. This is the untold backstory of emunah, mesirus nefesh, bitachon, and what it means to rebuild a life when everything is stripped away.
