After a long hiatus, the podcast returns for an important episode. Gleib is an Israeli American, and his in-studio guest is Palestinian American comedian Sammy Obeid. Since the Israel/Hamas war broke out three months ago, we've all been stuck in separate social media echo chambers. So Gleib wanted to change that and have a face to face conversation with a comedian buddy on the opposite side of perhaps the most complex and controversial issue of our time. Plus he updates us on two very difficult life updates since the last time we met, and shares a great life hack.
