She came to dance at sunrise. She left carrying a story most can’t bear to hear. Nova survivor Yonit Keidar shares what it takes to survive a massacre—and rebuild after. But this isn’t just her story. It’s the Jewish story: the warnings we ignore, the resilience we celebrate, and The Jew Function’s hard question—what are we willing to do before the sword comes down?

We love simple villains. In the 1940s it was Charles Lindbergh; in 2026, it’s Israel and ‘the Jews.’ In this episode of TheJewFunction, Dr. Jonathan Reich—cardiologist, aerospace engineer, and author of A Convenient Villain—shows how America turned Lindbergh into the antisemitic bad guy and quietly let the system that blocked Jewish refugees off the hook.

Michael Isaac Shokrian grew up an Iranian-Jewish kid in 1970s Los Angeles, learning America while searching for a place to belong. In this episode, we explore identity, immigration, and the outsider’s perspective through his novel American Playground, and why he went on to create The Thieving Magpie—a literary home for voices that rarely fit neatly anywhere.

Neuroscientist Zack Dulberg helps us explore a question that has haunted humanity for centuries: why does Jew hate keep returning across completely different cultures, religions, and political systems?c Drawing on neuroscience, moral psychology, and social cognition, Zack examines why societies create scapegoats, how moral narratives form, and why Jews continue to occupy a unique place in humanity’s imagination. Is antisemitism simply prejudice—or does it reveal something deeper about human nature itself? Dr. Zack Dulberg, live on thejewfunction

Melissa Steinberg Brodsky pushes on the uncomfortable truth at the heart of Jewish belonging: the culture says “everyone is included,” until Jews show up as Jews. We talk about Jew hatred, identity, and the people who—if they didn't have moral double standards they would have no morals at all. Why do we keep asking for a seat at the table when the table keeps shifting away? 👉 Set a reminder, join us live, and come ready with questions.

Lead Holocaust educator and author Jessica Silverman joins us to ask a haunting question: what haven’t we learned from the Holocaust, even now?

Drawing on her family’s survivor story and her work with Teach the Shoah, Jessica challenges the way we remember, the dangers of forgetting, and the subtle ways indifference and dehumanization creep back into our world.

If we mean “never again,” why do the same patterns keep returning—and what would it take to finally break them?

Few personal journeys are as unexpected — or as powerful. Once immersed in radical left-wing activism and the world of ANTIFA, Ateret wrestled deeply with identity, ideology, and what it meant to be a Jew in spaces that often demanded rejecting Jewish peoplehood and Zionism. But something changed her mind without affecting her liberal heart. Join us to find out what it was and how it has completely transformed her life. Ateret is founder and director of Indigenous Bridges, a nonprofit focused on connecting Indigenous communities globally.
