Actor, activist, and “Being Jewish” podcast host Jonah Platt joins Mosheh for a wide-ranging conversation about Jewish identity, politics, culture, and the intense pressures facing American Jews after October 7th.

Platt reflects on the fear, confusion, and polarization running through the community, and why so much of today’s antisemitism shows up not through slurs or symbols, but through omissions, framing, and coded language around Israel. He argues that this moment requires clarity, context, and calm engagement — not panic and not denial.

The episode also explores the creation of Platt’s podcast 'Being Jewish,' which aims to expand how people understand Jewishness — as a people, culture, history, and set of values, not just a religion.

Platt takes listeners inside Hollywood, an industry where many Jews have had to historically hide their identity. He also talks about the impact of October 7, and why some are now pushing forward Jewish and Israeli stories despite fear of backlash.

Also in the interview: Breaking down where Jewish institutions have fallen short in educating younger generations about Israel, and how better storytelling could counter both misinformation and apathy.

Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst joined Mosh after returning from Israel to break down the fragile ceasefire, the behind the scenes of war reporting, how he deals with the trauma of what he reports on, and the split-second decision that saved his life on October 7, 2023.

Yingst’s guiding philosophy after a decade in conflict zones: humanize civilians, avoid sweeping conclusions, and stay relentlessly accurate — even when everyone online demands you pick a side.

Yingst explains what’s happening between Israel and Hamas right now, and details the effective media blackout in Gaza, and how he verifies information through contacts inside the enclave. Yingst walks through how he looks to get the story right, the pressures of real-time reporting, and the importance of old-school verification.

He revisits October 7th, including his book, ⁠'Black Saturday,'⁠ about the attack and the aftermath, and he reflects on what both Israelis and Palestinians are actually experiencing on the ground and why most people in the region aren’t consumed by war despite global perceptions.

The conversation also covers:

• What remains of Hamas and whether Arab states can shape a post-war Gaza
• Why the world fixates on Israel-Palestine
• His reporting during the chaotic Kabul evacuation
• How he deals with the trauma of what he covers
• Trump’s nontraditional diplomacy and Jared Kushner’s growing role
• Where Ukraine-Russia peace talks stand and whether Putin has any incentive to stop fighting
• Rising global antisemitism and how it’s viewed inside Israel
• The role of social media in modern war reporting
