Podcast appearances and mentions of Bret Stephens

How do Israeli elections actually work? Israelis don't vote directly for prime minister, no party has ever won a majority, and a party with just a handful of Knesset seats can sometimes hold the keys to government. Noam Weissman sits down with former Knesset member Rachel Azaria to unpack coalition building, the 3.25% electoral threshold, the power of Haredi and Arab parties, and why Israeli politics can look so confusing from an American perspective. They also explore the biggest divides shaping Israel's next government, and what to watch as the 2026 election approaches.

Outside of L&D, most people and organizations see compliance training as a box that needs to be ticked, not something that can drive behavior change. Will AI make this problem better or worse? In this week's episode, Ross D and Cammy are joined by learning designer Anisha Sridhar to explore what AI is really doing to compliance training. We discussed: why the productivity argument for AI is incomplete contextualization, and why it beats personalization in compliance how to keep slop out of your learning content. During the episode, Anisha described using the Gunning Fog index to test whether legal text is actually readable. And Cammy brought up Bret Stephens' New York Times opinion piece, I'm Begging You: Never Write With A.I., which argues that giving up the writing means giving up the thinking.

In early June 2024, the Holocaust historian Raz Segal was offered a job directing the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at the University of Minnesota after roundly impressing an academic search committee. But as soon as the offer was extended, donors, politicians, and Jewish advocacy groups mobilized against his hire due to his public advocacy against Israel's genocide in Gaza, which included his Jewish Currents article “A Textbook Case of Genocide” from October 13th, 2023. Within a week, the university's interim president intervened to rescind Segal's offer. Now, two years later, Segal, an associate professor of Holocaust and genocide studies and the endowed professor in the study of modern genocide at Stockton University, has reached a $250,000 settlement with the University of Minnesota.On this episode of On the Nose, senior editor Mari Cohen guest hosts to interview Segal about the lessons from his struggle at Minnesota and recent developments in the field of genocide studies, which Cohen reported on extensively in a 2024 Jewish Currents feature. In their conversation, Segal traces the history of genocide studies and the political contexts that have made it difficult for scholars in the field to adequately address Israeli violence, and reflects on “A Textbook Case of Genocide” nearly three years after its publication. Is genocide studies finally evolving to meet the moment? And what should we make of the fact that many liberal commentators are only now willing to accept the argument Segal made six days after October 7th?Thanks to Jesse Brennemen for editing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Media Mentioned and Further Reading“A Textbook Case of Genocide,” Raz Segal, Jewish Currents “Can Genocide Studies Survive a Genocide in Gaza?,” Mari Cohen, Jewish Currents“An Israeli professor lost a prestigious US job offer after speaking out on Gaza.

If you think your flaws and failures automatically make you a better, more "authentic" leader, you've completely misunderstood the lesson of Moses. Most civilizations turned their founders into saints. The Hebrew Bible does the opposite. Abraham falters. Jacob deceives. David sins. Moses—the greatest prophet in Judaism—is denied entry into the Promised Land. This isn't a bug in the Torah. It's one of its most revolutionary ideas. In this episode of Madlik, Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz explore why Judaism insists that greatness and imperfection can coexist—but never confuses failure with virtue. Along the way they examine the Torah's portrait of Moses, the Beatitudes, Isaiah, Jonathan Sacks, Nahum Sarna, David Flusser, Martin Luther, Bret Stephens, and the surprising connection between biblical leadership and today's culture of authenticity, victimhood, and populism. Can a society acknowledge human weakness without celebrating it? That question may be as relevant today as it was in the wilderness. Key Takeaways The Torah Tells the Truth About Greatness - Unlike most ancient cultures, the Hebrew Bible doesn't turn its heroes into flawless saints. Moses, Abraham, Jacob, and David are remembered in all their greatness—and all their humanity. Their failures don't diminish them; they make their greatness credible. Flaws Are Lessons, Not Credentials - Judaism teaches us to acknowledge weakness, learn from it, and overcome it. There is a profound difference between recognizing imperfection and celebrating it. The Torah preserves failure to cultivate humility—not to make failure itself a virtue. Leadership Is Measured by Character, Not Victimhood Moses never reaches the Promised Land, yet he remains Judaism's greatest leader because of his faithfulness, courage, and willingness to serve a mission larger than himself. In an age that often confuses authenticity with virtue and grievance with authority, the Torah reminds us that true leadership is earned by responsibility, not by imperfection alone.

Pidió aplicar la maniobra Gombrowicz a ese par de párrafos de Bret Stephens en el Times. En efecto: somos nosotros. ¡Y hasta qué punto!Este es el lugar, dijo a Santos, donde quedan los posos del café, y no para leer el futuro sino el presente. Déjese un minuto de silencio, instó, para comprender a cabalidad lo que sucedió este miércoles, después de que la esposa del presidente del Gobierno entregara su pasaporte en el juzgado. Su abogado lo pidió de vuelta, alegando que "la temporada de verano se acerca". ¿Hay mayor degradación posible ya? ¿Cuántos efectos colaterales más de ese tipo vamos a tener que aguantar antes de que Sánchez entienda que no puede permanecer en su cargo por más tiempo?El marchamo moral que ha impuesto el jefe del Ejecutivo, ya lo ha dicho muchas veces, no alcanza solo a sus amigos –como ese sonrojante López gritando "Yo con Begoña"– sino a todas las instituciones. Y puso como ejemplo haber recibido –¡él, que es el último pez de la banasta, diría la abuela María!– las agendas de Zapatero. No hay más remedio que dar la razón al fiscal general del Estado: hizo bien en borrar su teléfono. Las salvaguardas debidas no fueron previstas.Se detuvo a explicar su resumen "muertos en Venezuela y María Corina a salvo", y comentó un novísimo burning paper sobre felicidad y creencia en el libre albedrío.Y fue así que Espada yiró.Bibliografía:- Bret Stephens, "If you love America, cringe for it", The New York Times.- Ingrid Scarlet y Rubí Reséndiz, "Ejecutan a un hombre en Bellavista y dejan otro cerdito de peluche rosa: suman 6 casos en Culiacán, Sinaloa", Infobae.- Burning: “Are Free Will Believers Happier?

Few public intellectuals have anticipated the shape of the present moment with such prescience as Garry Kasparov. In a major live conversation, Kasparov joins Bret Stephens to discuss his bracing new book, The World of Fake Values: Ukraine Under Fire, A.I. Amok, and the Putinization of America Under Donald Trump. A former world chess champion who gave up the game at the height of his power to confront Vladimir Putin's authoritarian rise, Kasparov has spent decades thinking about how democracies fail – and how they might be saved. Drawing on fresh reporting, recent essays, and conversations with thinkers ranging from A.I. researchers to Ukrainian dissidents, he argues that today's political chaos follows a grim internal logic: the hollowing out of democratic values, the weaponization of technology, and the normalization of authoritarian tactics in plain sight. In conversation with New York Times opinion columnist Bret Stephens, Kasparov examines why Ukraine matters to Americans, what artificial intelligence reveals about human judgment, and whether a democratic majority can still reclaim moral and political ground. Urgent, clear-eyed, and deeply informed, this is a conversation about power, values, and what comes next.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Bret Stephens, a The New York Times columnist and the editor-in-chief of Sapir magazine. Recent polling indicates that only roughly half of Americans support the US-Israel war against Iran's Islamist regime. Stephens weighs in on why the current conflict can be both "Trump's war" and a just war. Far from feeling that Israel dragged the US into this war, he says that for the first time in recent history, the US has a partner with whom to wage a war. "This war is different, not because it's a war for Israel. It's a war with Israel," says Stephens. But is the American public capable of internalizing the Iranian regime as an existential threat? In answer, Stephens asks whether a patient with stage II cancer should be advised to wait to treat it until it develops into stage IV. "Thank goodness we're acting now rather than just waiting on events," says Stephens. Assessing today's global dynamics and the authoritarian axis of Iran, Russia, North Korea and China, he turns to the 1930s, when the world was experiencing a series of conflicts that eventually led to World War II. He warns there is no Hollywood ending in sight. And so this week, we ask Bret Stephens, what matters now.

In this conversation, Bret Stephens discusses the complexities of antisemitism, the ongoing conflict with Iran, and the shifting political landscape in the United States, particularly within the Democratic Party. He emphasizes the need for a strong Jewish identity and critiques the ineffective measures taken against antisemitism. Stephens argues that the current military actions against Iran are not a new war but an effort to end a long-standing conflict. He also addresses the rise of anti-Israel sentiment within the Democratic Party and the implications for future elections, warning against the dangers of conspiracy theories and their connection to anti-Semitism. Be sure to check out the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠On Brand with Donny Deutsch YouTube page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Takeaways: We must cultivate our Jewish identity and pride. Antisemitism is more a problem for antisemites than for us. The current conflict with Iran is about ending a long-standing war. Military action against Iran could lead to regional peace. The Democratic Party's shift is concerning for American Jews. Hamas does not seek a peaceful coexistence with Israel. Zionism represents a long-standing anti-colonial struggle. Ending the Iranian regime could facilitate a Palestinian state. Trump's rhetoric poses a threat to democratic institutions. Conspiracy theories can fuel anti-Semitism.

That $133 billion that's supposedly been collected? Nobody's got a clue where it vanished to, and crickets from the media on asking the real questions. They move south of the border to break down how US intel helped snag a top Sinaloa cartel boss, he ends up dead in transport, the raid leaves 70+ bodies, and now Mexico's exploding with burning cars, kidnappings, tourists trapped in Puerto Vallarta, and the whole thing reeks of somebody upstairs quietly shopping for new cartel partners to cut deals with. From there they hit Bret Stephens basically begging Trump in the Times to drop bombs on Iran so we can all pretend to be liberators one more time (yeah, that'll end well). Part of the Dems' autopsy finally leaked, indicating that Gaza straight-up killed turnout for Harris but they're still finger-pointing at everybody but their own cowardly moves.

Tomorrow, we launch our second issue on Aspiration—devoted to audacious ideas for a thriving Jewish future. Four years ago, when we published our first issue, the world was a very different place. In his editor's note, Bret Stephens writes: “Jewish aspiration after October 7 is a different story. Paradoxically, it requires more realism and more ambition.”So here we are, returning with new questions: Is the Jewish world taking enough risks? Has American Jewish life become too convenient? Should we, indeed, stop fighting antisemitism and instead fight Jewish complacency? And did Bret go too far when he called for the dismantling of the ADL?Join Editor-in-Chief Bret Stephens and Rabbi David Wolpe for a wide-ranging SAPIR Conversation on these questions and more.Read SAPIR: www.sapirjournal.org  Music from #Uppbeat: ⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/theo-gerard/monsieur-groove

In this episode of Opinionated, I speak with Bret Stephens, who reflects on how Jews have the “honor of being hated,” a realization that struck him on October 8th during a Times Square demonstration. We discuss how this perspective underscores the need for Jews to build resilient institutions and a strong sense of identity. I then talk with Dan Perry about Israel's difficult choices in the Palestinian territories, weighing the realities of Hamas, occupation, and the Palestinian Authority, and the necessity of pragmatic decisions to protect Israeli lives. Finally, I offer a personal commentary on the broader implications for Jewish communities worldwide and the urgency of Israel achieving decisive security. Support the showThe MirYam Institute.

And can Jewish identity flourish without first ensuring Jewish security?To hear the full conversation, become a member by following the link in the description or visiting arkmedia.org.In the full episode: Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of Anti-Defamation League, joins Dan to respond to Brett Stephens' controversial “State of the World Jewry” speech, which argued that too many Jewish resources are invested in fighting Antisemitism, rather than building a Jewish life. Jonathan, whom Bret called out by name, tells Dan that the two mustn't be seen as mutually exclusive. The two also discuss whether Jewish institutions should do some soul searching after being blindsided by Oct. 8, whether the Blue Square Alliance Superbowl ad missed the mark, and what the data's showing about anti-Jewish trends in America.Read Jonathan's op-ed, American Jews need both security and identityRegister for the Never is Now Summit and use discount code “Senor20”Watch the Call Me Back episode from the 2025 Never is Now SummitWatch Jonathan's previous appearance on Call Me BackMore Ark Media:Subscribe to Inside Call me BackListen to For Heaven's SakeListen to What's Your Number?Watch Call me Back on YouTubeNewsletters | Ark Media | Amit Segal | Nadav EyalInstagram | Ark Media | DanX | DanDan Senor & Saul Singer's book, The Genius of IsraelGet in touchCredits: Ilan Benatar, Adaam James Levin-Areddy, Brittany Cohen, Martin Huergo, Mariangeles Burgos, and Patricio Spadavecchia, Yuval Semo 

Proudly Jewish is back. I started this podcast a few weeks after October 7, 2023—trying to grapple with the massacre we witnessed and the tsunami of Jew-hatred that followed. About a year ago I stepped away due to work, life, and rabbinic ordination, but I'm returning now because I'm seeing something new: a growing call for real change from within the Jewish world. In this solo episode, I reflect on the rise of “conditional acceptance” of Jews—where society embraces only the Jew who renounces Jewish peoplehood and the Jewish state.I also explore why so much of what we call “fighting antisemitism” can become a costly, well-meaning distraction—and why building deep Jewish strength, pride, and identity must come first.Along the way, I include key clips and ideas from Bret Stephens, Ben M. Freeman, Adam Louis-Klein, and Dr. Naya Lekht, voices helping to reshape the conversation about Jewish empowerment in this moment.Also available on YouTube.

Should we really stop trying to fight Antisemitism? Should the ADL be “dismantled”? Can we define the psychology of Antisemitism? And what are the stories that define Judaism?Watch Bret's full speech: https://youtu.be/1QMTjVuo9dEMore Ark Media:Listen to For Heaven's SakeListen to What's Your Number?Watch Call me Back on YouTubeNewsletters | Ark Media | Amit Segal | Nadav EyalInstagram | Ark Media | DanX | DanDan Senor & Saul Singer's book, The Genius of IsraelGet in touchCredits: Ilan Benatar, Adaam James Levin-Areddy, Brittany Cohen, Martin Huergo, Mariangeles Burgos, and Patricio Spadavecchia, Yuval Semo

Is the right way to fight Antisemitism maybe to… stop fighting it?In this special episode, we share The State of World Jewry address delivered by New York Times columnist Bret Stephens at the 92nd Street Y. Stephens, who is also the editor-in-chief of SAPIR Journal, offers a bracing diagnosis of modern antisemitism and argues that it cannot be educated away, apologized for, or solved through allyship. Instead, he calls for Jewish confidence, cultural seriousness, and moral clarity in the face of rising hostility.In this episode:- Why antisemitism is about resentment, not misunderstanding- The false promise of fighting antisemitism head-on- The danger of approval-seeking and respectability politics- October 8th Jews and the identity reckoning- Jewish values as inherently countercultural- Building strength instead of chasing acceptanceThis episode was sponsored by SAPIR: Sign up for the SAPIR journal at sapirjournal.org/CallMeBackMore Ark Media:Want to join Ark Media?

In the days since Madouro's capture, many have argued that the Trump administration's operation in Venezuela is another signal that the global system we've known for the better part of a century has dramatically changed. From the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, to Israel's two-year multifront battle, to a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan, geopolitical power dynamics are rapidly shifting. But to what end? Are we witnessing the emergence of a new world order?To discuss the historical context and implications of the geopolitical moment we find ourselves in, Dan was joined by Call me Back veteran Brett Stephens. Brett is an opinion columnist for the New York Times, a senior contributor to NBC News, and the inaugural editor in chief of the Sapir journal.

On December 14th, two gunmen opened fire on a celebration marking the first night of Hanukkah at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia, killing 15 and injuring more than 40. The gunmen, a father and son, have since been linked to the Islamic State. Immediately, as observers near and far were just beginning to process and mourn, bad actors rushed in to claim the narrative. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered a rebuke of Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, linking the antisemitic attack to Albanese's call for a Palestinian state. Australian antisemitism envoy Jillian Segal similarly linked the attack to a peaceful August 3rd Palestine solidarity march over Harbour Bridge attended by 300,000. She used the opportunity to promote her controversial 20-point plan to combat antisemitism, which would necessitate the broad adoption of the flawed IHRA definition of antisemitism, mandate Trumpian funding cuts to universities, and crown herself arbiter of acceptable speech related to Israel/Palestine in the media. American politicians quickly weighed in to express solidarity with the state of Israel and link the violence to the nonviolent Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement. Some prominent American Jewish figures like New York Times columnist Bret Stephens and former US antisemitism envoy Deborah Lipstadt claimed—without evidence and before anything was known about the shooters—that the attack was downstream from use of the phrase “globalize the intifada,” a dig at New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani who chose not to condemn the phrase.On this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents editor-in-chief Arielle Angel and senior editor Mari Cohen spoke with Sarah Schwartz, the Melbourne-based executive officer of the new progressive, independent Jewish organization the Jewish Council of Australia. They parsed the various responses, from Australia to the US to Israel; explored the folly of conflating the ideology of the Islamic State with Palestinian national or solidarity politics; and reflected on the role and responsibility of the Jewish left amid antisemitic violence.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Articles Mentioned and Further Reading“Jews, antisemitism and power in Australia,” Max Kaiser, Meanjin“Bondi Beach Is What ‘Globalize the Intifada' Looks Like,” Bret Stephens, The New York TimesBenjamin Netanyahu's statement on Bondi...

Last week, a group calling itself The Jewish Majority published a “Rabbinic Call to Action” aimed at New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani in the last weeks of the campaign. “We cannot remain silent in the face of rising anti-Zionism and its political normalization throughout our nation,” the letter reads. Signed by over 1,100 rabbis, the letter quotes New York rabbis Ammiel Hirsch and Elliot Cosgrove, who had each issued their own anti-Zohran sermons and videos, insisting that Mamdani poses a danger to the safety of the city's Jews and that Zionism is an inextricable part of Jewish identity.On this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents editor-in-chief Arielle Angel, editor-at-large Peter Beinart, senior reporter Alex Kane, and advisory board member Simone Zimmerman discuss this rabbinic campaign, what it means for the sizable Jewish minority who supports Mamdani, and what it says about the priorities of institutional Judaism at a moment of profound political instability.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Articles and Media Mentioned and Further ReadingRabbi Cosgrove's sermon on MamdaniRabbi Ammiel Hirsch on Mamdani“Why Mamdani Frightens Jews Like Me,” Bret Stephens, The New York TimesThe Jewish Majority, “A Rabbinic Call to Action”“Brad Lander's Campaign of Solidarity,” On the Nose“Tax the Rich” post on X by Maria DanziloHalachic Left High Holidays reader“Zohran Mamdani is not antisemitic, Satmar's Brooklyn leadership says,” Jerusalem Post“Jewish New York's reckoning with Zohran Mamdani,” Noa Yachot, The Guardian“Many American Jews sharply critical on Gaza, Post poll finds,” Naftali Bendavid, Scott Clement, and Emily Guskin, The Washington Post“‘The Issue is Not the Issue' – The Free Speech Movement 1964 - The Anti-Mamdani Craze,” Shaul Magid on SubstackMamdani's video “My Message to Muslim New Yorkers—and Everyone Who Calls This City Home”“
