After October 7, educators were asked to guide students while still making sense of their own evolving relationship to Israel and to Jewish peoplehood. What does it mean to teach when the ground beneath the curriculum is still shifting? What has changed in Israel education? What do educators need to hear? As season of six of Adapting comes to a close, Samantha Vinokor-Meinrath interviews David Bryfman on what's changed in Israel education after October 7, drawing on ideas from his new book, Heroism & Hope: Recharging Israel Education in a Post-October 7 World. Together they reflect on how educators and communal leaders have had to navigate the emotional and ideological terrain since October 7, and how history and memory are being shaped in real time. Sharing personal anecdotes and powerful insights, Bryfman articulates a vision of Jewish learning rooted in pride, inquiry, and student agency, offering language for education that makes space for reflection before it demands answers. Purchase the book at https://www.amazon.com/Heroism-Hope-Recharging-Education-Post-October/dp/B0GZBH6QLL/Learn more about The Jewish Education Project at jewishedproject.orgThis episode was produced by Miranda Lapides and Dina Nusnbaum.

Was it one of the war's most memorable feats of valor or an act of desperation, even madness? In Out of the Sky: Heroism and Rebirth in Nazi Europe (Spiegel & Grau, 2026), Matti Friedman unravels one of the strangest episodes of World War II: In 1944, a team of young women and men who had escaped the Holocaust made the inconceivable choice to parachute back into Nazi-occupied Europe under the cover of a British military operation. Yet by the end of the mission, not a single Nazi was harmed and not a single Jew was saved, and many of the parachutists died in the process. Even so, some of their names would become legendary, especially that of twenty-three-year-old Hannah Senesh, the author of the beloved Hebrew song “Eli, Eli.” Their story would become one of the young state of Israel's founding myths—but what exactly was the mission, and what had the parachutists actually accomplished? What made them heroes? Using thousands of original documents from once-secret files, manuscripts, memoirs, and unpublished letters, Matti Friedman follows four of the parachutists from the spring of 1944 to the operation's dramatic end that winter. In Out of the Sky, he tells the gripping and surprising tale of a forgotten moment, demonstrating how storytelling itself can have a power even greater than warfare. And in exploring the line between myth and reality, heroism and futility, he creates an argument that has resonance in our own time. Learn more about your ad choices.

Thanks to their courage, quick thinking and flawless teamwork, Alachua County Fire-Rescue Driver Operator Steve Toth and Firefighter Jake Levine saved a citizen's life. Hear their story, as we salute SKY Valor honorees throughout the month of June.

Eighty years after the end of World War II, parts of its history remain shrouded in secrecy and political convenience. In this episode of *Now I've Heard Everything*, Bill Thompson sits down with Jenny Chan, co-founder and Director of Pacific Atrocities Education. Inspired by a surprising discovery after her grandmother's passing, Jenny has dedicated her life to uncovering the forgotten history of World War II's Pacific theater -- where an estimated 40 million lives were lost. From the harrowing survival stories of Filipino guerrilla resistance fighters and "comfort women" to the unthinkable atrocities committed by Imperial Japan's Unit 731, Jenny exposes the brutal realities of total war on civilian populations. She also sheds light on the shocking post-war immunity deal where the U.S. government purchased biological warfare data from war criminals for millions of dollars. Tune in for a powerful conversation about historical erasure, the agonizing bureaucratic fight to declassify 80-year-old documents, and what happens when scientific advancement completely abandons human ethics.Chapters:00:17 The Discovery That Changed Everything 01:17 The Radical Erasure of the Pacific Theater 03:16 Hellships and Friendly Fire 07:23 The Bureaucratic Fight for Declassification 09:14 Heroism and Horrors: Guerrillas and Comfort Women 13:16 The Politics of Post-War Justice 14:01 Unit 731: Science Without Ethics 17:46 Bought Immunity: The U.S. Deal with War Criminals 21:51 Final Thoughts: War is a Nasty Business 23:07 Where to Find Pacific Atrocities EducationGuest InformationJenny ChanWebsiteSocial:YouTube Facebook Instagram TikTok1987 interview with Nien ChengEasier, more confident everyday conversation: "The Everyday What To Say"For more intriguing and engaging interviews each week, subscribe now on:Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 156 Central to the psychological and social construction of both Fascists and Nazis are the concepts of heroism and honor. These sound good, like sound foundations of society. Then again, from the Marxist Left, so do fairness and justice. In both cases, though, we find a rule of totalitarian systems: the virtues are defined in terms of the totalitarian project itself. Under Fascist and Nazi thinking, heroism and honor are comprehensible only in terms of one's duty to the state, which should be a matter of personal honor and heroic self-sacrifice for the collective. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay pulls back the veil on this Fascist dimension of nice-sounding but deceptive language. Join him for a clarifying explanation.

We walk you through the ways we’ve “improved” lawnmowers, power washers, and even our diets—by lowering the standard of success. Between the three of us, we’ve collected a highlight reel of poor decisions: mow mishaps, backyard experiments, and deep thoughts about sardines, anchovies, and whatever Grape Nuts are supposed to be. We share the kind of “redneck hacks” that sound helpful right up until you try them—like stuffing a rag into a mower’s air intake to save starter fluid. We also explore self-defense, which for us mostly means recognizing how quickly we would lose a fight. We’ve studied the irrationality of street fights just enough to conclude the smartest move is to not become a story someone else tells later. Along the way, we uncover “truths” like the difference between reel mowers and the real mowers, the correct spelling of 'lapping compound', and why hot sauce might technically qualify as a weapon. We also spend an unreasonable amount of time debating cereal, because nothing reveals our intellectual limits faster than our fascination with the expansion rate of Grape Nuts. We even get into emergency preparedness, which for us means looking around the house and saying, “What could this be used for instead?” Could Grape Nuts replace kitty litter? Should hot sauce be used as a fire extinguisher? We don’t recommend it, but we’ve clearly thought about it more than responsible people do. If you’ve ever fixed something the wrong way and felt proud anyway, you’re one of us.

A culture of fear, blame, obedience and corner-cutting sets in chain a devastating course of events. Millions are displaced, many die and the effects last for decades. Sounds familiar? On 26 April 1986, reactor no.‍4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant near Pripyat in modern Ukraine exploded, spreading radioactive contaminants across the Soviet Union and Europe. The disaster would eventually cost $700bn and hasten the fall of the USSR. Adam Higginbotham is the author of the definitive work on the accident, Midnight in Chernobyl. He tells Andrew Harrison how the culture that led to Chernobyl wasn't confined to Soviet Russia – and how Putin's war on Ukraine risks stirring up Chernobyl's radioactive poisons all over again  • Buy Midnight in Chernobyl and/or Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space through our affiliate bookshop and you'll help fund the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.

The 8th of Nisan is the yartzheit of two Jewish heroes, Eliyahu Hakim and Eliyahu Bet Tzuri. Executed for a political assasination in the course of the pre-State strugggle, their story teaches us about the warrior and the storyteller, two essential models of Jewish heroism.

Why would a group of young Jews who escaped the Holocaust choose to parachute back into Nazi-occupied Europe? How did they become heroes despite the failure of that mission? Author Matti Friedman joins EconTalk's Russ Roberts to unravel these mysteries through his book Out of the Sky, revealing why a failed mission became one of Israel's most powerful founding myths. At the heart of the story is Hannah Senesh, a 23-year-old Hungarian poet who traded her Budapest life for a kibbutz, then traded the kibbutz for a parachute and a near-certain death sentence--and whose poems, scribbled on scraps of paper in forests near the Hungarian border, became some of the most famous texts in modern Hebrew.

xAttack on Michigan Synagogue. Tragedy and Heroism at ODU's ROTC. Bombing Civilians is Bad. Trump Drops Russian Oil Sanctions. UFO General Missing. RIP Rick Bolanos. Mid-East F1 Cancelled. American caskets are coming home again. In this fierce, fiery Friday episode, Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the escalating “Iran overflow” war, the KC‑135 crash that killed six American service members, the growing drumbeat of troop movements into the Middle East, and the total failure of Congress to do its job on questions of war and peace. He calls out Trump's illegal “no quarter” rhetoric, Pete Hegseth's authoritarian war on the press, ICE's abuses at home, and the dangerous normalization of UFC “Freedom Fights 250” on the White House lawn—while reminding listeners why if you're not angry, you're not paying attention.​ Then Medal of Freedom recipient, Air Force veteran, and TAPS founder Bonnie Carroll returns to go deeper on what really happens when someone is killed in action, in training, in terror attacks at home—or lost to suicide. Paul and Bonnie unpack the brutal realities of casualty notifications, the lifelong journey for surviving families, and the heroic work TAPS is doing right now for the loved ones of those lost in Iran, Iraq, Old Dominion, Michigan, and beyond—and how you can help.

1. Visit with U.S. Soldiers Wounded in the Maduro Raid Senator Ted Cruz visits three U.S. soldiers wounded during a raid intended to arrest Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro. All soldiers are recovering in stable condition and none suffered life‑threatening injuries. One soldier helped plan and lead the raid and continued fighting after being shot. Two soldiers requested keepsakes from their injuries (a bullet and shrapnel), which Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth approved as a morale gesture. Emphasis on: Heroism and discipline of U.S. forces No American fatalities despite being outnumbered Significant Cuban forces defending Maduro were reportedly killed 2.
