The interview was conducted by Doron as Jill was unavailable on the day of recording. Joining Doron to tell us his story is our first German guest on the podcast, jeweler and Nova festival survivor Michael Silberberg, who technically attended Carmel not once but twice: from 1986 to ‘87, and again from 1989 to ‘91.  His younger sister Dana accompanied him. Michael grew up in Frankfurt, the son of Israeli parents who hailed from Eastern Europe.  He studied gemology and runs a successful fourth generation family jewelry business with a retail outlet on the famous Kaiserstrasse in the heart of Frankfurt.  Over a decade ago, he made aliyah with his wife and two children, both of whom became IDF spokespersons.  On October 7, Michael drove two friends in his car to the Nova Music festival in Israel's south; they arrived at 5am. Hear Michael talk about striking a deal with Mr. Skelker that led to his second-most cherished Carmel memory, winning a fashionable award on Purim, the victory that got him invited to the top table on Shabbat, selling jewelry to ‘shtarkers', and his incredible story of survival and rebirth on October 7.
