Beginning in 1963, a commission headed by a justice of the Supreme Court of Israel has been researching and awarding these people the honorary title "Righteous Among the Nations".

We are so grateful that at least there are people like this in the world!

New episode, who dis? It's been a strange couple of months, with lots of unplanned events. That led to an episode recorded in September 2020 (simpler times) just being released. No matter what has gotten in our way, the one thing we are SURE of, is at least there is coffee!
