Description

In this episode, Ed and Jonathan, a Jew in LA and Jonathan a German in Berlin, reflect on current political events and their personal relation and experience with it: The rise of the far-right AfD in Germany, mass protests against it, and how Germany deals with the past in general; and on the other hand, the possible comeback of Donald Trump, racism and antisemitism in US history.


By the way, we’re just getting started. Much more to come in our next episodes.


Hosted by Ed Crasnick and Jonathan Widder; edited by Leon Wolf
