Reel Politik Podcast

Reel Politik podcast co-host and British-American-Israeli citizen Yair Rice ceremonially burns his Israeli passport in protest at the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. Can't really add anything more to this that Yair doesn't cover in the vid, but the RP team salute his courageous gesture. FREE PALESTINE.

To kick off RP for 2024, we return by popular demand to the English-language, western-targeted comedy sketches of Eretz Nehederet, the "Israeli Saturday Night Live", as well as the YouTube content of their celebrity guest Michael Rapaport.

Jack and Geraint convene to talk about the Rory Stewart scandal, wherein the centrist ex-Tory and podcaster was the subject of antisemitism allegations after he issued the mildest possible defence of Jeremy Corbyn on constitutional grounds, and what this tells us about how consensus is constructed in British politics.
