The Vintage Boys—Ken Abramowitz, Shel Freilich, Joshua London, and Zalmi Unsdorfer—join Edwin for Passover 2025/5785. There will be the usual reasoned deliberations on the best whiskies and wines for the observation of Passover plus cogent considerations of current events and history. Plus, we will have special reports from Richard Heideman on October 7 litigation and Clare Lopez on the Iran nuclear standoff. Next year in Jerusalem!

What's next for the 47th president? Alex Traiman with a hostage report, Clare Lopez with a security update, and Miranda Devine on the strange imprisonment of Gal Luft.

Edwin plus Sharon Polsky, Clare Lopez, and Richard Heideman give updates on, respectively, global perils, antisemitism in Canada, the China threat, and the latest in legal action.

The usual suspects—Shel Freilich, Joshua London, Jeff Morgan, Ken Abramowitz, and Zalmi Unsdorfer—are back to help Edwin look back at 5784 and forward to 5785 and the fraught US elections. Join us as we welcome the new year!

In addition, Marc Zell updates us on the Americans in Israel voting effort and Clare Lopez cuts through the fog of war in the Middle East.

Edwin and the Ballot Boys—Josh Block and Juda Engelmayer—continue their incisive analysis of what’s ahead and what’s at stake in this contentious and consequential US election season. People on both sides view the other as existential threats. Where do we go from here?

In addition, Sharon Polsky reports on Canada, Marc Zell reports on voting from Israel, and Clare Lopez updates us on China.
