Interview: How Do You Explain Antisemitism To Kids? Nov 21, 2025

Show notes

When antisemitism surged after the October 7th attacks — and even years before — two Jewish journalists Bianna Golodryga (CNN) and Yonit Levi (Israel’s Channel 12) found themselves searching for something that didn’t exist: a way to help their kids make sense of the hate suddenly appearing in their feeds, schools, and daily lives.

So they wrote the book themselves.In this episode, Mosh talks with Bianna and Yonit about their new novel, 'Don’t Feed the Lion,' which follows a 13-year-old boy confronting antisemitism in the age of social media — and why this age group desperately needs tools adults have long overlooked.

The conversation goes far beyond the book. As veteran anchors covering two continents, they unpack the global rise in antisemitic incidents, political fractures inside Israel, the shifting dynamics between the U.S., Israel, Netanyahu, and Trump, and how major news outlets — including their own — have struggled to cover antisemitism before and after October 7th.

Interview: Ken Burns On The Birth of American Democracy — and the Battles That Still Define It Nov 14, 2025

Show notes

Few filmmakers have shaped how we understand America quite like Ken Burns. In this episode, Ken joins Mosheh for an in-depth conversation about his newest project — The American Revolution, a sweeping six-part documentary premiering this month on PBS.

The series reexamines America’s founding as more than a story of brilliant thinkers in Philadelphia — revealing a violent, fragile, and deeply human struggle for independence that almost failed. Burns explains how remarkable the American Revolution’s promise of “inalienable rights” was, and how the US influenced 200+ years of revolutions around the world. Burns explains why he thinks 1776 was the most consequential event since the birth of Jesus Christ.

Burns also discusses the present: What the Founders’ era can teach us about disinformation, division, and democracy in 2025. Why complexity — not simplicity — is the key to understanding our past and navigating our future. And how Burns finds optimism and faith in a nation that’s always been a work in progress.

The American Revolution premieres Sunday, November 16, on PBS and streams at ⁠PBS.org⁠ and the PBS App.
