[AUDIO EARLY ACCESS] Bad Hasbara 73: Terms of Encampment, with Debra Winger
Added 2025-01-03 21:52:05 +0000 UTC
FIXED THAT LOUD STATIC BULLSHIT AT 1:26:40. My bad!
Matt and Daniel are joined by three-time Academy Award nominee, actor Debra Winger to discuss Israel in the 1970s, the only time she ever felt anti-semitism in Hollywood, and an unforgivable latke topping.

British Jew take- apple sauce and sour cream aren’t traditional in the UK. My great-grandma used cinnamon and sugar. I live in the US now and it’s still superior. My partner (non-Jew) tried it skeptically and agreed. Ketchup can fuck off though.

Wonderful, wonderful episode. I didn’t know about Ms. Winger’s activism until last year unfortunately but she is wonderful. Is there a female equivalent of mensch because I think she’s it.

The Melanie Phillips thing was brilliantly some. Ghastly woman. She goes (maybe still does) to my parents former shul, from when I used to live in London. I went with them occasionally and saw her. She was always very contained, stiff, very cold.

Amazing episode, she definitely out did you guys at your own game. I also really felt the Hanukah part... my most resented Jewish holiday.

Wilful might be correct here … wile, wilful: wile meaning “devious or cunning stratagems employed in manipulating or persuading someone to do what one wants.”

Around 1:43 Daniel says Bibi looks like Nosferatu - I was reading a book about Vlad Dracula when Oct 7 happened and I couldn’t stop thinking about how Bibi seemed like a perfect candidate for that dude

I can’t believe I’m here to correct Daniel’s spelling - Tyranny… runs away

Guys, don’t give Hindutvas ideas. They’ve already been cheering Modhi on to smite Muslims, Christians, and Sikhs. Do you really want them running it up the chain to Lord Krishna? 😂

God, I absolutely hated that part. (I didn’t read the guy as Jewish, but I’m not Jewish.) I thought it was so disgusting that he killed the poor cabbie kid just for giving them a ride, then spared the billionaire who put the whole thing in motion.

I think Matt is right. I have this feeling even in my worst days that Palestine will be free. That Palestinians will be free. They can't kill all of us

I think the big Hasbara budget increase is going to go toward increased surveillance, suppression of dissent, ruining careers, and covert psy ops. Get ready for a rough year. We need each other.

When Daniel was quoting Melanie Phillips about "a certain people to blame for all of it," I was thinking, "What's she going to say? The negroes?".

Deborah Winger’s husband was AMAZING in “The Killer” as the adorable client who uses his Jewish charm to talk Fassbender out of murdering him.

Did you know that Mélanie Phillips had been awarded the Orwell Prize For Journalism ?

Great episode. I always loved her (I’m old) and had no idea she was Jewish (didn’t care). It was really great to find out that she’s so cool. Heading into 2025, this pod is the thing that consistently makes me feel better when I’m feeling really, really bad about the world

It's the name changing that bothers me in particular. Polish Jews went through some seriously bad shit for centuries, and still they kept their faith and traditions. Their survival in the face of terrible prejudice shows a strength and resilience that should be honoured and celebrated. And yet the Zionists trampled all over this legacy by changing their names and severing the link to their ancestors.

When America's military logistics train to Israel collapses.. then the demise of the so called Israel colonial state can truly start. I'm sure MBS would love a leg up in whatever weird ass Neom project they could start

This is maybe the best episode yet. Def the one I'm sending to my mom. Pending listening to the rest of it.
