Every thinking person and caring person has been affected by the pain and suffering in our world of late. And most of us have been grappling with the horrors of October 7 and everything that has come since then. Today, Rabbi Sharon Brous is here to help us make sense of it all. Rabbi Sharon Brous is the founding rabbi of IKAR Jewish synagogue and community in LA. Rabbi Sharon was also chosen to bless President Obama and Vice President Biden at their inaugural in 2013, and she returned to do the same for President Biden and vice president Harris in 2021. She was also named the number one most influential rabbi in the United States by Newsweek and The Daily Beast. Her new book is available now for preorder and it also makes a wonderful gift for yourself and for others. It's called The Amen Effect, ancient wisdom to mend our broken hearts and world, and I think you'll love it. So pick up a copy today wherever you get legendary books. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Rabbi Sharon Brous on coping with grief The conversation begins with Christopher asking Rabbi Sharon Brous about coping with grief and finding hope post-tragedy. Rabbi Sharon admits feeling shattered, expressing concern for her family and the world. Despite the prevailing sorrow, she emphasizes the pivotal moment in history, urging a deliberate choice toward healing. Christopher questions how, as a rabbi, she addresses anger, fear, and despair. Rabbi Sharon sees her role as a pastor: comforting the afflicted, acknowledging pain, and fostering empathy. She encourages reconnecting with shared humanity, emphasizing agency in shaping a better future. “I think that my first job is to be a pastor, to really be a pastor to my community. To, as we say, comfort the afflicted, to name out loud the pain that people are experiencing, to affirm how incredibly worrisome and anguished this time really is. And not to stop there – to then lead us to stretch our hearts and try to find some empathy from our own suffering, to try to reestablish links to a world that we dream is possible, even from out of the depth of the world that we find ourselves in.” – Rabbi Sharon Brous Rabbi Sharon Brous on loneliness and finding a community after a tragedy Christopher shares his distress post-October 7, expressing shock and concern at the rising anti-Semitic behavior. He opens up about feeling out of control, lonely, and abandoned—a sentiment echoed by others. Rabbi Sharon Brous acknowledges the surprising existential loneliness post-tragedy. Drawing on Dr. Vivek Murthy's insights, she links loneliness to a gap between needed and actual social connections. Rabbi Sharon underscores the importance of reaching out, emphasizing that human thriving relies on connections. She encourages overcoming the inclination to retreat, advocating for rebuilding bridges to the mainland, as no one can self-sustain on an island. Reflecting on her own experience after October 7, Rabbi Sharon highlights the healing power of shared humanity, even across cultural divides. Rabbi Sharon Brous on healing and reconciliation in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict On the topic of stopping the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Rabbi Sharon Brous envisions a future of reconciliation and healing. She rejects the idea of a military solution and emphasizes the necessity of building a shared future as neighbors. “I believe, along with the many thousands of Israeli Jews and Palestinian citizens of Israel, who are part of a very vibrant civil society in Israel, that the only way forward will be together. I believe that ultimately, there will not be a military solution to this conflict, that ultimately, we are going to have to find a way to build a future as neighbors.” – Rabbi Sharon Brous Despite the current pain and challenges,

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (12/04/2023): 3:05pm- In her most recent New York Times article, journalist Li Yuan documents that an increasing number of Chinese citizens are fleeing their country and crossing the U.S. Southern border illegally. Yuan writes that “[t]he most harrowing part of their journey was trekking through the brutal jungle in Panama known as the Darién Gap.” Chinese citizens are willing to endure the strenuous migration in order to flee a totalitarian regime willing to torment its citizens. You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/03/business/darien-gap-china-immigration.html 3:15pm- On Monday, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum announced he will suspend his long-shot presidential campaign. According to RealClearPolitics polling averages, Gov. Burgum had only garnered 0.6% support from Republican voters. The Daily Beast reports that Burgum is considered a potential cabinet member, if Donald Trump were to win a second term as president. 3:25pm- While appearing on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) revealed that there is now enough internal support from House Republicans to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden regarding money his family received from overseas business associates while serving as Vice President in the Obama Administration. 3:35pm- In a video posted to the Republican Caucus House Oversight Committee's X account, Chairman James Comer (R-KY) alleges that Owasco P.C., a Hunter Biden business, made direct monthly payments to then-Vice President Joe Biden, according to newly discovered bank records. Comer added: “Hunter Biden is under an investigation by the Department of Justice for using Owasco P.C. for tax evasion and other serious crimes.” You can read more here: https://www.nationalreview.com/news/bank-records-show-direct-monthly-payment-from-hunter-bidens-corporation-to-joe-biden/ 3:50pm- While appearing on ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, former RNC Chairman Reince Priebus noted that if Democrats truly believed democracy is on the ballot in 2024, they would run a presidential candidate much stronger than Joe Biden. 3:55pm- While speaking with CBS News' John Dickerson, former Congresswoman Liz Cheney claimed Mike Johnson serving as Speaker of the House during the 2024 presidential election creates an “existential crisis.” She continued, “we have to ensure that we don't have a situation where an election that might be thrown into the House of Representatives is overseen by a Republican majority.” 4:05pm- On Friday, George Santos became the sixth congressman in U.S. history to be expelled from the House of Representatives. The House voted 311 to 114 in favor of removing him following numerous allegations of lying about his background and a 23-count indictment that includes allegations he “repeatedly, without authorization” charged donor credit cards—depositing funds into his own bank account. Meanwhile, Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) remains a member of the House of Representatives despite pleading guilty to pulling a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building just prior to the House holding its vote on a stopgap spending measure to avoid a government shutdown. As Rich notes, Bowman's only punishment was a modest fine and a written letter of apology. 4:10pm- While appearing on The View, Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) reacted to George Santos' expulsion from the House by stating that Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) should also be removed from office. Fetterman explained, “Menendez, I think is really a senator for Egypt. You know, not New Jersey. So, I really think he needs to go.” Menendez has been charged with acting as a foreign agent for Egypt, and with accepting bribes in exchange for influence. 4:15pm- Brandon Drey of The Daily Wire writes, “A subpoena request filed in Congress to grant lawmakers access to the flight logs connected to deceased financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was allegedly blocked last week by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL). Durbin, who leads the Senate Judiciary Committee, reportedly rejected the request brought forward by Tennessee Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn in early November. She accused Durbin of standing in the way of certifying the request after a contentious committee meeting on Thursday.” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/sen-blackburn-says-democrat-led-senate-committee-chair-blocked-epstein-flight-logs-subpoena 4:30pm- If Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) were to resign from the U.S. Senate, would Gov. Phil Murphy (D-NJ) replace him with his wife Tammy Murphy? Last month, Tammy Murphy formally announced her intention to run for U.S. Senate challenging Menendez for his seat. 4:40pm- During Sunday's Eagles-49ers game, San Francisco linebacker Tre Greenlaw and Dom DiSandro, the head of Eagles security, were ejected from the game following a sideline scuffle that DiSandro attempted to break up. 5:05pm- Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article at National Review, “There is No Trans Genocide.” Dr. Reilly writes: “Why do respected institutions continue to propound verifiably wrong conspiracy theories about how dangerous America is?” Rich and Dr. Riley also discuss a disturbing Pro-Palestinian protest in Philadelphia on Sunday night that consisted of anti-Semitic chants and the intentional targeting of a restaurant owned by an American-Israeli chef. Plus, the Canadian Human Rights Commission declares that Christmas is racist! You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2023/11/there-is-no-trans-genocide/. And you can pre-order Dr. Reilly's upcoming book here: https://www.amazon.com/Lies-My-Liberal-Teacher-Told/dp/0063265974. 5:40pm- Ellie Rushing of The Philadelphia Inquirer writes: “Two security guards at Macy's in Center City were stabbed, one fatally, inside the iconic department store Monday morning, police said. Shortly before 11 a.m., a 30-year-old man—identified by law enforcement sources as Tyrone Tunnell—attempted to steal some hats from the store at 13th and Market Streets. When security guards confronted Tunnell and retrieved the stolen items, he initially left without incident, said Interim Police Commissioner John Stanford. But about 10 minutes later, Tunnell returned, then approached one of the guards and started stabbing him, Stanford said. When a second security guard attempted to intervene, Stanford said, Tunnell slashed and stabbed that guard as well. One of the men, a 30-year-old who had been stabbed in the neck, died from his injuries at Jefferson Hospital a short time later.” You can read the full article here: https://www.inquirer.com/news/philadelphia/macys-stabbing-philadelphia-center-city-20231204.html 5:50pm- On Monday, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum announced he will suspend his long-shot presidential campaign. According to RealClearPolitics polling averages, Gov. Burgum had only garnered 0.6% support from Republican voters. The Daily Beast reports that Burgum is considered a potential cabinet member, if Donald Trump were to win a second term as president. 6:05pm- Zach Jewell of The Daily Wire writes: “The Biden administration is pushing countries to ‘accelerate' their climate action and spending $3 billion in taxpayer dollars as a pledge to climate and ‘gender equity' funds, the White House announced Saturday… Buried deep in the White House fact sheet are commitments to advancing ‘gender equity amid climate change,' which include an additional $449 million for new programs such as Global Girls Creating Change, a program that seeks to give 900 girls and young women in 29 different countries ‘professional opportunities in the sustainable economy.'” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/white-house-announces-3-billion-for-green-projects-overseas-including-nearly-500m-for-gender-equity 6:20pm- During a speech at the 2023 United Nations Conference on Climate Change, U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry said that coal fired power plants should not be permitted to exist anywhere in the world. 6:35pm- While speaking in Dubai, Vice President Kamala Harris bizarrely said it was necessary to “revitalize the Palestinian Authority” in response to war between Israel and Hamas. 6:40pm- While speaking with Kristen Welker on NBC's Meet the Press, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) declined to answer whether the Iowa caucus is “do or die” for his presidential campaign. 6:50pm- During Monday's press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre was asked if the Florida Democrat Party cancelling their presidential primary amounted to “voter suppression.” Unsurprisingly, Jean Pierre refused to answer.

But now we've learned it is very possible that would never have happened had this scientist not had a bit of sorcerer in him as well. (Ghosts, Gravity, and Isaac Newton) *** On Easter Sunday, 1475, in the city of Trent, a 2-year-old boy named Simon was found dead. This one act triggered a wave of anti-Semitism that wiped out a community of Jewish males and threatened the power of a pope. All from the death of one child. (History's Most Dangerous Toddler) *** "I am innocent, that mark of mine will NEVER be wiped out. It will remain forever to shame the county for hanging an innocent man…. " Alexander Campbell said these words on June 21, 1877 shortly before his hanging. And true to his word, the handprint he left behind refuses to fade away – no matter how hard people try to remove it. (The Reappearing Handprint) *** A century ago, in July 1920, The Illustrated Police News, ran a single story on its front page, complete with a drawing of a man lying on top of a woman, both surrounded in blood. But even more disturbing – a young boy, very much alive, and apparently watching the whole thing. (The Little Boy Who Watched His Parents Die) *** It took a while before the first woman to be hanged would take place in the USA – but in 1778 it finally happened. And her name was Bathsheba Spooner.

Tonight, I'm talking about serial killer Samuel Little with Jillian Lauren, author of “Behold the Monster: Confronting America's Most Prolific Serial Killer.” Jillian Lauren Jillian Lauren is a writer, storyteller, adoption advocate, rock-wife, and lousy kickboxer. She is the New York Times bestselling author of the memoirs EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED, and SOME GIRLS: My Life in a Harem, and the novel PRETTY. SOME GIRLS, which recounts her time spent in the harem of the Prince of Brunei, has been translated into eighteen languages. She was the only journalist to extensively interview Samuel Little, the most prolific serial killer in American history. This experience is chronicled in Joe Berlinger's hit STARZ documentary series, CONFRONTING A SERIAL KILLER, and in Michael Connelly's podcast MURDER BOOK: The Women Who Brought Down Samuel Little. Her book BEHOLD THE MONSTER: Confronting a Killer is forthcoming. Jillian has an MFA in Creative Writing from Antioch University. Her writing has appeared in New York Magazine, The New York Times, Vanity Fair, The Paris Review, The Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Magazine, Elle, Flaunt Magazine, The Daily Beast, Salon, and many others. Her work has been widely anthologized, including in The Moth Anthology, and True Tales of Lust and Love. Jillian is a regular storyteller with The Moth and performs at spoken word and storytelling events across the country. She did a Tedx talk about adoption and identity at Chapman University in 2014. She has been interviewed on The View, Good Morning America and Howard Stern, to name a few. Jillian is married to Weezer bass player Scott Shriner. They live in Los Angeles with their two sons. Behold the Monster Jillian Lauren had no idea what she was getting into when she wrote her first letter to prolific serial killer Samuel Little. All she knew was her research had led her to believe he was good for far more murders than the three for which he had been convicted. While the two exchanged dozens of letters and embarked on hundreds of hours of interviews, Lauren gained the trust of a monster. After maintaining his innocence for decades, Little confessed to the murders of ninety-three women, often drawing his victims in haunting detail as he spoke. How could one man evade justice, manipulating the system for over four decades? As the FBI, the DOJ, the LAPD, and countless law enforcement officials across the country worked to connect their cold cases with the confessions, Lauren's coverage of the investigations and obsession with Little's victims only escalated. New York Times bestselling author and lead of the Starz docuseries Confronting a Serial Killer Jillian Lauren delivers the harrowing report of her unusual relationship with a psychopath. But this is more than a deep dive into the actions of Samuel Little. Lauren's riveting and emotional accounts reveal the women who were lost to cold files, giving Little's victims a chance to have their stories heard for the first time.

Sometimes politicians are rich when they go into politics. Sometimes they get rich, somehow, while collecting the relatively modest salary that comes with even some of the highest-level elected offices. How does that happen? And why is there such a disconnect between the ardent, eat-the-rich populism of this moment and the success filthy rich politicians have at the ballot box? Matt Lewis, a senior columnist for the Daily Beast and a regular guest on more national programs than I can conveniently list here, is the author of "Filthy Rich Politicians: The Swamp Creatures, Latte Liberals, and Ruling-Class Elites Cashing in on America," and he joined this episode of Plain Talk to those questions, his book, and the state of play in American politics. Also on this episode, my co-host Chad Oban and I discuss polling on property taxes, abortion, and a federal court ruling that North Dakota lawmakers most hold another special session to address redistricting.

Poet and professor Erin Hoover self-identifies as "the parent of a donor-conceived child," and if you're wondering how she came to use that specific terminology, the thread of its evolution runs all the way through her recently-released collection, "No Spare People." Erin is currently based in Tennessee, and has lived in a number of places we might not think of as particularly "queer-friendly." Add to that the fact that she's chosen to parent on her own, and...let's just say she encounters a lot of personal questions. Erin shares how being queer is "a mode of existence...that has influenced every part of my life," and reads several poems from "No Spare People" as the events that inspired them come up in her story. Plus: '90s Dyke Drama (TM) at Sarah Lawrence!(TW: discussion of sexual assault, but nothing descriptive)The best way to find all things Erin is to go to her Linktree at linktr.ee/erinhoover. From there, you can access her website for more of her poetry and a list of upcoming events, find out where to purchase "No Spare People," and read the Daily Beast article we discussed in this episode!

Lisa discusses three popular books that, in the fall of 2023, have been released on the screen – either as a movie or a limited series. She discusses Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr and Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann. Lisa delves into each movie and how it compares to the book. Time Magazine says the limited series of All The Light We Cannot See is a simplistic version of the book. The Daily Beast calls Mark Ruffalo's accent abominable. Lisa and Kirsten Plonner discussed All the Light We Cannot See on this episode and Kirsten didn't like the way the book ended. Still, the limited series has an entirely different ending, which Lisa discusses in today's episode. Lessons in Chemistry is available on Apple TV and a new episode drops on Fridays. Lisa discussed Lessons in Chemistry on an episode of the podcast here. In Lessons in Chemistry, there were some dramatic changes from characters form the book to the show. For instance, one character Harriet was an aging housewife, but in the limited series, they change her to a young African American attorney. Vulture Magazine says that the show introduces a marginalized character and marginalizes her story. Killers of the Flower Moon is now on the big screen and there is some debate about the age of the actors and this article delves into that topic. CNN discusses the length of the movie.

Many of the most important secrets held in international contests are technological or scientific in nature, and wars are often settled due to technological superiority of one side over the other. This leads spy agencies to employ all manner of trickery and tools to obtain those secrets. With us to explore the history of scientific espionage is Eli Lake. Eli was a senior national security correspondent for The Daily Beast and Newsweek, and a syndicated columnist with Bloomberg. Eli is now a columnist for the Free Press and the host of the Re-Education Podcast on Nebulous media. Eli is also a contributing editor for Commentary Magazine.
In the second part of my two-part interview with author and journalist Shane Burley, we continue our discussion about the contexts that underlie the dramatic escalation of violence by the State of Israel in the Palestinian territories since Hamas's October 7th attack. We focus on the validity of claims made by pro-Israel Zionists of antisemitism on the part of Palestinian liberation activists in demanding not only a ceasefire, but the ending of apartheid and continual expansion of Israeli Jewish settlements into Palestinian territories. Shane examines the Christian Right's Zionist antisemitism, Israeli Leftism, the internal political tensions in Israel before and since the events on October 7th, and how "Jewish safety has always been in the hands of solidarity with other marginalized people." Shane Burley is known for his work on the far-right and left-wing social movements. He is the author of Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It (AK Press, 2017) and Why We Fight: Essays on Fascism, Resistance, and Surviving the Apocalypse (AK Press, 2021), and editor of the anthology ¡No pasarán!: Readings on Antifascism (AK Press, 2022). His work has been featured in places like NBC News, Al Jazeera, The Baffler, Jacobin, The Daily Beast, Truthout, In These Times, Roar Magazine, Jewish Currents, and others. He provides expert analysis and commentary on these issues for places like PBS, The Guardian, and The Oregonian, and has published extensive academic work, particularly on antisemitism.
