Podcasts about The Holocaust

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the Washington Post and has done its best to downplay the Holocaust yet they were quick to attack Glenn Youngkin as an anti-Semite for criticizing George Soros' political influence on public education. Soros has promoted radical left-wing policies for decades. Then, the border is in the worst condition it's ever been in! Despite being the most tolerant and beneficent nation, the left insists on expanding immigration with an open border. Despite welcoming the downtrodden, Democrat policies like these welcome drug traffickers, human smugglers, and murderers - a policy like this is not safe or sustainable. Later, blue-collar, first responders, truckers, and grocery store staff deserve our thanks. As do the men and women of the border patrol who protect us from MS-13 gangs yet President Biden is willing to fire them all over a vaccine mandate. What happens when a citizen has an emergency and calls 911 but the first responders have been laid off because of Biden's mandate? Afterward, Biden's not a union man. Driving up the cost of food and gas while mismanaging the supply chain isn't a union issue. Allowing hundreds of thousands of people to illegally cross the border into the United States is not a union issue. This is a Democrat issue that Joe Biden and Terry McAuliffe support, as is the push for transgenderism and racism in the classroom. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Bible prophesies of a time just ahead when the Antichrist and the World Government military forces will come after the people of Israel. As we look at the headlines from around the world today, could we be witnessing the beginning of Another Jewish Holocaust? Let's talk about it!

Many people dream of becoming an actor or actress, but very few actually make it. About the Interview In this episode of Hilary Topper on Air, Hilary speaks with Gene Silvers, an accomplished actor and her friend of many years. Learn what Gene has been up to and his most recent roles in the Amazon hit series, “Them” and on the Apple+ TV series, “Mosquito Coast”. Hear about how he got his start as a magician to the stars, his appearances on Law & Order and on Broadway, and a ski accident that changed his life. About Gene Silvers Gene was born and raised in Long Beach, NY. As a kid and young adult in Long Beach, he started his performing career doing magic, learning, and performing together with his good friend, Ricky Rubin (who later became world-famous music producer Rick Rubin).  The interest in magic later led to acting in school plays. After an epiphany on stage, Gene decided he wanted to be an actor. He saw the possibility of a real transformation and emotional release when done at a high level, so he became committed to it, going to several colleges, being disappointed in the training, and finally finding a mentor acting teacher, Robert X. Modica, in NYC. Years later he was working on TV and on stage in NYC. Several appearances on Law and Order, Law and Order SVU, Third Watch, Guiding Light, and then on Broadway in 2009 for “Irena's Vow” - a play about the Holocaust starring Tovah Feldshuh. Most recently he booked two big roles this past year. Elder Luther in Amazon Prime “Them” which was the number 1 show on Amazon for several weeks, as well as Sheriff “Gene Silvers” on Apple plus TVs “Mosquito Coast. Gene's other interest is skiing, but unfortunately in January of 2019 Gene was in a very bad skiing accident on Mammoth Mountain in CA. He fell in a high-speed tumble between rock walls on a double black run and badly broke his left arm and tore his ACL. He came very close to dying. Gene also has an interest in mysticism and has lived in India in an Ashram for long periods of time. Contact Gene Silvers To get in touch with actor Gene Silvers, find him on Facebook!

Join the RB crew as cover the amazing escape of Jewish prisoners from one of the deadliest extermination camps of the Holocaust. Seriously there should be a movie about this!!!!!

In Revelation 17, the Apostle John describes in great detail the characteristics of a false church that will be the partner of the Antichrist. Was he describing the Roman Catholic Church? To answer that question, Dave Hunt spent years gathering research and indisputable historical documentation (primarily Catholic sources) providing information not generally available. Are you missing half the story about the last days? Virtually all attention these days is focused on the coming Antichrist—but he is only half the story. Many are amazed to discover in Revelation 17 that there is also another mysterious character at the heart of prophecy—a woman who rides the beast. Who is this woman? Tradition says she is connected with the church of Rome. But isn't such a view outdated? After all, today's Vatican is eager to join hands with Protestants worldwide. "The Catholic church has changed," is what we hear. Or has it? In A Woman Rides the Beast, prophecy expert Dave Hunt sifts through biblical truth and global events to present a well-defined portrait of the woman and her powerful place in the Antichrist's future empire. Eight remarkable clues in Revelation 17 and 18 prove the woman's identity beyond any reasonable doubt.

This week's Gaslit Nation explores narrative warfare, from Russia's Stalinist revisionism (now including an attack on Andrea's film Mr Jones!) to the “both-sidesing” of the Holocaust in US schools, to the memory-holing of the Capitol attack.

Brandon and Big D walk us through the story of the Donner Party. The wagon train of pioneers who ate each other in the terrible record cold winter of 1846.

Dr. Jerry Bergman discusses his book Darwinian Eugenics and the Holocaust: American Industrial Involvement. https://www.amazon.com/Darwinian-Eugenics-Holocaust-Industrial-Involvement/dp/1777086108/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Darwinian+Eugenics+and+the+Holocaust%3A+American+Industrial+Involvement&qid=1634662336&sr=8-1

Teachers in a Texas school district were told last week that a new state law requiring them to present multiple perspectives about “widely debated and currently controversial” issues meant they needed to make “opposing” views on the Holocaust available to students. NBC News obtained an audio recording of the official, Gina Peddy, the Carroll Independent School District's executive director of curriculum and instruction, speaking to the teachers about how to work under the constraints of the new law, known as House Bill 3979. The law was passed amid a wave of efforts in Republican-led statehouses to prevent “critical race theory,” “divisive” topics and concepts related to race and bias from being taught to children. “Under this law, it would be impossible to teach that Nazi Germany was inherently antisemitic, or that the Third Reich oppressed Jews simply because they were Jews, because that would identify Nazis as inherently biased and Jews as inherently and systemically oppressed,” Russel Neiss, a Jewish educator in St. Louis, wrote in the St. Louis Jewish Light in May about legislation that had been proposed in Missouri. Lawmakers there are continuing to push for anti-critical race theory rules for schools. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a week of tearing down statues in honor of indigenous people, Keith and Chemda return to discuss … everything. KATG covers the lies of Jake Gyllenhaal, talks about Dave Chappelle vs. Hannah Gadsby, and reviews Netflix's Midnight Mass, YOU season 3, 365 Days, and Squid Game. The duo shares the news of the passing of Colin Powell who died of blood cancer mixed with COVID. Also, they show schools that demand that you to stay home if you ARE vaccinated as well as schools wanting to teach the “opposing perspective” of the Holocaust. In funner news, Keith guested on his first ever in-person podcast since COVID. Oh, and the multimillion-dollar chili recipe? WE HAVE IT!

Busy weekend for Jaki, and a slower news week gives us a chance to talk about workers' rights and the near strike of IATSE workers, and the hundreds of other strikes that have gone on just this year. We look to the future, and what the backlog of ships in California could mean for the holiday season. We discuss how a Texas school administrator wanted to take a “there are good people on both sides” approach when teaching about the Holocaust. Lastly, we look back at the life of Colin Powell who died from Covid complications this morning, and the legacy of his historical turn as Secretary of State.

Texas administrator told teachers they need to share "both sides" of the Holocaust. Nikki Medoro hears you thoughts. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Katie Couric admits that she edited RBG's interview, to cover up Ginsburg's opposition to taking a knee. And much more

Republican state representative, Anne Dauphinais recently criticized Governor Lamont over his vaccine and mask mandates comparing him to Adolf Hitler. She's not the first politician to reference Nazi Germany and the Holocaust to criticize public health rules in the pandemic. Today, we talk about why these analogies are harmful. Avinoam Patt, Director of the Center for Judaic Studies and Contemporary Jewish Life at the University of Connecticut joins us. Do these references and jokes in popular culture point to the need for better Holocaust education? Later, we're going to talk about a really interesting story that brought an anthropologist and an archaeologist together after Superstorm Sandy.

We got a short news day. First, we have an IATSE strike update, before revisiting a horrific story that broke late last week. Finally, former president Bill Clinton was discharged from the hospital yesterday. Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: Deadline: "Hollywood Strike Averted As IATSE & AMPTP Agree On New Film & TV Contract; Read Details Of Deal" NBC News: "Southlake school leader tells teachers to balance Holocaust books with 'opposing' views" Washington Post: "Former president Bill Clinton discharged from hospital after treatment for infection"

"I jump into a book - we take a book into our hands, and I become everybody, everywhere in every era. I become Emma Bovary - it is a very famous expression by Flaubert saying, “I am Emma Bovary, Emma Bovary c'est moi.” I become someone else in a different place, in a different time, in a different body, sometimes in a different sex. I can even become an alien, a princess, a count. Then I let go of my defenses and I delve into my existential struggles but in this transitional space of literature which is so unique because the story of the characters is our story"    Episode Description: We begin our conversation about the reading experience with Merav sharing with us her story of growing up in a family of writers. We discuss the factors within us that lead us to read and how it shares certain similarities with the clinical encounter. She considers the use we make of literature to help us make the intolerable more playfully bearable. The work of Jorge Semprun is discussed with examples given from his memoir Literature or Life. Merav shares with us her sense that the depressive position informs and allows for a more ethical engagement with the literary experience. We close with her reading the poem Eating Poetry by Mark Strand.    Our Guest: Merav Roth Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist and a training and supervising psychoanalyst at the Israeli Psychoanalytic Society; She is the head of the psychoanalytic psychotherapy program, Sackler School of Medicine, Tel-Aviv University; and a researcher of psychoanalysis and culture (mainly literature and trauma). She is the former chair of the interdisciplinary Doctoral Program in psychoanalysis and the former founder and chair of the post-graduate Klein studies, both at the psychoanalytic psychotherapy program, Sackler School of Medicine. Together with Joshua Durban, Roth edited and wrote the Preface and introductions to the book Melanie Klein – Essential Papers II and also edited Klein's Psychoanalysis of Children and Brenman Pick's Authenticity in the Psychoanalytic Encounter. Her book Reading the Reader – a Psychoanalytic Perspective on Literature, was published by Routledge and is translated into Spanish.    Recommended Readings:   Jorge Semprun. Literature or life - Penguin, 1997.     Merav Roth. A Psychoanalytic Perspective on Reading Literature - Reading the Reader, Routledge, 2020.     Merav Roth.

Transference in the Days of Corona(IPA web) -     Etti Hillessum's book: An Interrupted Life: Diaries and Letters of Etty Hillesum [1941-43]  (a tremendously inspiring diary of a young woman during the Holocaust) 

Werner Reich was sixteen years old when his life was turned upside down. His father passed, his mother perished in a concentration camp, and he found himself in Auschwitz. His peculiar bunkmate there turned out to be... a magician. That man--The Great Nivelli--taught Werner a card trick. And in doing so, he saved his life. Werner Reich has been a magician ever since. Joshua Jay delves into the fascinating life of ninety-four-year-old Reich in this riveting conversation.

Red Comet: The Short Life and Blazing Art of Sylvia Plath by Heather Clark Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography • “One of the most beautiful biographies I've ever read." —Glennon Doyle, author of #1 New York Times Bestseller, Untamed The highly anticipated biography of Sylvia Plath that focuses on her remarkable literary and intellectual achievements, while restoring the woman behind the long-held myths about her life and art. With a wealth of never-before-accessed materials--including unpublished letters and manuscripts; court, police, and psychiatric records; and new interviews--Heather Clark brings to life the brilliant daughter of Wellesley, Massachusetts who had poetic ambition from a very young age and was an accomplished, published writer of poems and stories even before she became a star English student at Smith College in the early 1950s. Determined not to read Plath's work as if her every act, from childhood on, was a harbinger of her tragic fate, Clark evokes a culture in transition, in the shadow of the atom bomb and the Holocaust, as she explores Plath's world: her early relationships and determination not to become a conventional woman and wife; her conflicted ties to her well-meaning, widowed mother; her troubles at the hands of an unenlightened mental-health industry; her Cambridge years and thunderclap meeting with Ted Hughes, a marriage of true minds that would change the course of poetry in English; and much more. Clark's clear-eyed portraits of Hughes, his lover Assia Wevill, and other demonized players in the arena of Plath's suicide promotes a deeper understanding of her final days, with their outpouring of first-rate poems. Along with illuminating readings of the poems themselves, Clark's meticulous, compassionate research brings us closer than ever to the spirited woman and visionary artist who blazed a trail that still lights the way for women poets the world over

Between squeals about his big lie, Trump spontaneously opined about golden showers. A UK MP was stabbed multiple times during a meeting with his constituency. Officer Michael Riley of the Capitol Police was charged with obstruction after messaging a rioter from the January 6th insurrection and encouraging the traitor to destroy evidence. A Texas school system told teachers to teach opposing views of the Holocaust. Christo-twunt Jim Bakker blathered something about fellow prophets getting shot by enemies of Christianity. The Czar of Missouri vowed to criminally prosecute a journalist who found a major security flaw in the state's website. Right-wing crackpot Lauren Witzke, the GOP's Delaware senatorial candidate in 2020, appeared on a show called "No White Guilt." The a-hole known as "Hacker X" described the enormity of a pro-Trump misinformation empire he helmed. A Pastor got his ninth DUI as well as an attempted murder charge after ramming a police car. Evangelical Sith Lord Greg Locke explained how the origins of Halloween involve virgin girls being raped by demons.  

Guests: Jelani Cobb, David Becker, Ryan Reilly, Maria Hadden, Antonia HyltonTonight: The hollowing out of America democracy continues as qualified, non-partisan election officials keep getting purged for MAGA replacements. Then, what we know about the Capitol Police officer charged with helping a January 6th rioter attempt to obstruct justice. Plus, the showdown in Chicago and across the country as police unions refuse public health orders on vaccines. And how one reckless law in Texas is causing chaos for teachers across the state.  

School board in Texas apologizes for thinking there's another "side" to the Holocaust. Konfederate Kids go unpunished in Georgia . . . not so much for the students who sought to protest the Devil's Diaper. Steve Bannon sends a signal to his master. Joe Manchin screws America . . . some more . . . with a little help from his "friend." We finished this week in the deepest hole we've ever had. We didn't even get last Tuesday funded. The HORN has never needed your help more. PLEASE help keep one of the longest running internet broadcasts afloat.

Brad and Dan begin by discussing a rally for VA gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin where supporters pledged allegiance to a flag carried at the January 6th Insurrection. To top it off, Steve Bannon--who is ignoring a subpoena to testify about January 6th--appeared at the rally to support Youngkin's campaign. They then discuss an ongoing debate in a school district near Forth Worth Texas, where libraries have been closed surrounding the need to teach "multiple perspectives" on the Holocaust. This is a direct result of new laws in Texas passed by Gov. Abbott last month. The episode finishes with a discussion of the politicization of SCOTUS in the wake of a speech given by Samuel Alito at Notre Dame a few weeks ago. Learn more about your ad choices.

Sarah and Ben discuss season 6, episodes 1, 2, & 3.

It's Casual Friday with a very special guest! Sam and Emma host Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota's 5th District, whose recent book, This Is What America Looks Like: My Journey from Refugee to Congresswoman, is out in paperback now! Representative Omar, Sam, and Emma take on a variety of issues central to the progressive cause as the Biden administration has begun to falter. They begin with key issues on immigration and refugees, as Ilhan Omar touches on the shameful continuation of Trump policies under Biden, particularly exploring the treatments of Afghan and Haitian refugees and the Biden administration's reliance on Title 42, taking on also why he has failed to stick to this campaign promise. Next, they move to the topic of student debt relief, as Congresswoman Omar dives into the mysterious missing memo that stands as the only thing preventing Biden from putting pen to paper with an executive order, and what could be behind the delay, before they jump to the topic of the reconciliation platform and how debt relief may or may not fit in. She, Emma, and Sam also dive into the discussion around reconciliation spending, why a shorter span on funding is easily okay by progressives if Sinema and Manchin will just clarify what they would like, and explore the developing role of the progressive caucus. They also touch on the legitimate ideas on both sides of the Holocaust, as per Texas's new education requirements that an "opposing" view be taught regarding the once in a century atrocity. And in the second half, Sam and Emma are joined by members of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) union David McMahon (Local 52) and Fae Weichsel (Local 600) to discuss the recent developments regarding their strike authorization. Then Sam and Emma are joined by comedian Ben Gleib to discuss his recent dust up with Charlie Kirk! They run through the highlights of his very calm discussion with Charlie Kirk, including Kirk's anger and confusion regarding human anatomy, American citizenship, and what his role is within the right. Sam and Emma also touch on talking horses and John Deere, taking on the solidarity we're seeing all across the nation with this string of labor strikes, and Lindsey Graham doing some Republican-talking-point MadLibs on the wealthy Brazilian terrorists coming into our country, plus your IMs!

MVC&R are not fans of vaccine mandates, and neither are many Chicago police officers. The Transportation Secretary is taking time off during a literal transportation crisis, and former President Obama's defense secretary is blasting President Biden over Afghanistan. Former President Bill Clinton is hospitalized in California with non-COVID symptoms, and Queen Elizabeth has been advised to drop her daily cocktail. NBC News lies about Texas teachers having to offer pro-Holocaust material, and nurses sue a hospital for “blanket denial” of religious vaccine exemptions. A member of the UK Parliament is stabbed and killed while meeting with constituents, and an FBI negotiator has tips for talking to your unvaccinated family members. Ryan Fujitani from Rotten Tomatoes has the latest in spooky cinema, and an especially sweet Friday Five -- Best Sweet Songs.

When you can't align with the people who equate mask mandates to Nazi Germany — or with people who get triggered by the Federalist Society — where does the Rational Center belong? BIll Kristol joins Charlie Sykes on today's podcast. Special Guest: Bill Kristol.

To make engaging with the stories of Holocaust survivors more "interactive," a new project uses machine learning analysis to process an audience's questions to synthesize answers out of a survivor's pre-recorded testimony. But this "solution," in blurring the lines between simulation and reality, disrupts our understanding of the past and undermines how we perceive the survivors themselves.  Read more essays on living with technology at https://reallifemag.com and follow us on Twitter @_reallifemag.

The Hasidic community in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn is famously one of the most separatist, intensely religious, and politically savvy groups of people in the entire United States. Less known is how the community survived in one of the toughest parts of New York City during an era of steep decline, only to later resist and also participate in the unprecedented gentrification of the neighborhood. In A Fortress in Brooklyn: Race, Real Estate, and the Making of Hasidic Williamsburg (Yale University Press, 2021), Nathaniel Deutsch and Michael Casper unravel the fascinating history of how a group of determined Holocaust survivors encountered, shaped, and sometimes fiercely opposed the urban processes that transformed their gritty neighborhood, from white flight and the construction of public housing to rising crime, divestment of city services, and, ultimately, extreme gentrification. Interviewee: Nathaniel Deutsch is professor of history at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Schneur Zalman Newfield is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Borough of Manhattan Community College, City University of New York, and the author of Degrees of Separation: Identity Formation While Leaving Ultra-Orthodox Judaism (Temple University Press, 2020).

Holocaust education has proliferated in the United States, along with a nationwide emphasis on anti-bias education. But recent years have also seen an undeniable rise in antisemitism. How did we get here? To find out, host Dara Horn rewinds back to the stunning success of Gentlemen's Agreement, a 1947 Oscar-winning Hollywood blockbuster in which Gregory Peck plays a journalist who poses as a Jew in order to expose American antisemitism. The movie's premise is hilariously blunt: People shouldn't hate Jews, because Jews are Just Like Us! Of course, this premise contains an unspoken compromise: If Jews aren't Just Like Us, hating them might actually be fine after all. To investigate this requirement that Jews erase their differences in order to deserve respect, we go back to a bizarre moment in 1806, when Napoleon convened an ancient rabbinic court to ensure that the Jews were sufficiently Just Like Us. In this bizarre Napoleonic game show and the spectacular gory failures that unspooled from it, we can begin to see the unarticulated limits of what we now think of as diversity—and to consider, in profound ways, how we might do better. Rachel Gordan's most recent work on Gentleman's Agreement, Laura Z. Hobson, and twentieth century American Jewish culture can be found here, here, and here. Jonathan Helfand's work on Jewish identity in France can be found here and here. For further background, see also Napoleon, the Jews, and the Sanhedrin and The Affair: The Case of Alfred Dreyfus. Dara Horn's new book, People Love Dead Jews, is published by WW Norton and is available wherever books are sold. It's also available as an audio book from Recorded Books. We hope you'll check it out. Adventures with Dead Jews is brought to you by Tablet Studios and Soul Shop. It's created and written by Dara Horn, and produced and edited by Josh Kross and Robert Scaramuccia. The managing producer is Sara Fredman Aeder, and the executive producers are Liel Leibovitz, Stephanie Butnick, Gabi Weinberg and Dan Luxenberg. We hope you'll rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts, so that more people can join us on our adventures.

In May of this year, Joseph wrote a Wall Street Journal op-ed entitled “When the Mob Came for the Jews of Baghdad.” He will be speaking at an American Sephardi Federation event with other Holocaust survivors next week

A top administrator with the Carroll Independent School District advised teachers last week that if they have a book about the Holocaust in their classroom, they should also offer students access to a book from an “opposing” perspective.   Clay Robison, a spokesman for the Texas State Teachers Association, said there's nothing in the new Texas law explicitly dealing with classroom libraries. Robison said the book guidelines at Carroll, a suburban school district near Fort Worth, are an “overreaction” and a “misinterpretation” of the law. Three other Texas education policy experts agreed.  “We find it reprehensible for an educator to require a Holocaust denier to get equal treatment with the facts of history,” Robison said. “That's absurd. It's worse than absurd. And this law does not require it.” Six Carroll teachers worried that they would be punished for discussing their concerns publicly. They said district leaders have sent mixed messages about which books are appropriate in classrooms and what actions they should be taking. “Teachers are literally afraid that we're going to be punished for having books in our classes,” an elementary school teacher said. “There are no children's books that show the ‘opposing perspective' of the Holocaust or the ‘opposing perspective' of slavery. Are we supposed to get rid of all of the books on those subjects? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

FDA panel recommends Moderna booster for some Americans, thousands of John Deere workers go on strike, and Southlake teachers told to balance Holocaust books with “opposing” view.
