Ed the Sock (and Friends)

Over the holidays we're encouraged to be grateful for what we have, and sometimes, that's not a request, it's a demand. While feeling sincerely grateful is good for mental health, no one ever feels gratitude by force. Liana goes through where the lines are, and why gratitude can become resentment when it's not freely given.

If you're looking for another raucous, belligerent argument about the Israel/Hamas War - look elsewhere. Steven Kerzner and Stephen Lautens look at the current conflict from an unpopular position - a rational one. Frank truths are spoken about why the savage Hamas attack on October 7 has shattered Jewish people's sense of safety, why unsupported charges of war crimes against Israel matter, 'Holocaust fatigue', internal conflict among world Jewry, the real motivations of those calling for a ceasefire and ultimately, why Hamas is winning this war.

What is the 'rescuer trap' and why do so many men fall prey to it? Pretty sure you know the answer to the first part, find out about the second part to escape the cycle!

Why are people who are the most passionate about issues usually the people least informed about those issues?

The Israel/Hamas war - Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner support Israel's right to self-defence but find many faults in the way it's carrying it out.

Looking for talk about the Israel/Hamas war that isn't the usual talking points? We got it for right here!

Probably more than you think - and what you can do about it!

This episode - NOTHING about the Middle East! 

It's what everyone is talking about and in this episode, so are Ed the Sock and Liana Kerzner. The Israel/Hamas War. Expect it to get emotional at times. How can it not?

Stephen Lautens and Steven Kerzner discuss the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, Israel's response, possible reasons why this happened and possible outcomes for the region.
