Matt and Daniel are joined by political activist Rafael Shimunov to examine the social construct of whiteness as it relates to pod favorite Shai Davidai, to witness a Shai on Shaiel war of words, and to open their collective third eye to irrational hatred of the other while getting a good stretch.

Raf asks New York City voters to rank Zohran Mamdani first, and fill in the rest of their ballot as they please - omitting Cuomo - in the June 24 Democratic mayoral primary.

Woa i was just thinking wouldn’t it be nice to have a bad hasbara episode while I’m walking to work this exact second lol

Ian Weniger

11pm Pacific 2am Eastern drop time????

I used to love walking to work listening to BH. But I worked a day job...

Jonathan Kadmon

Just do what I do. Wait to listen til I'm on my way to work at 4am central time 🙂

The yoga nazi segment reminded me of a few years ago when i was doing a deep dove into the psychology of cults and brainwashing and listening to a podcast called "conspirituality" dedicated particularly to the guru and wellness cults so prevalent on the west coast. Creepy yoga gurus advocating appalling things are pretty much a dime a dozen in Matt Leib's neck of the woods 😂

Eric

I was waiting for the NOFX reference. Glad you guys went through with it

Ray

that offspring album is the only one i would admit (in public) to liking

Molly Long

Appreciate it! Don't want to seem like a nag, but I did link a trans woman's piece that goes into detail about how and why. Love you guys, thanks for listening!

Bad Hasbara

No worries at all. Just started reading it and the author seems pretty on the money. Even predicted my argument that Dr Lecter says he’s not trans. Nailed me there, I’m afraid. I think my main issue was Brianna Wu thinking the analogy was a transphobic attack on her, which seems hilarious convoluted.

Molly Long

Brianna Wu is so full of shit don't worry haha. I appreciate you taking the time to read and listen :)

Not being hyperbolic.. I actually don’t know what I would have done this year and a half without bad hasbara. Straight up…. nervous system regulation ❤️

Israel never changes, it distills.

Mark Cullen

My name is Mark, and I’m from Denmark. I just starte to follow the YouTube channel Bad Hasbara as a fan because it delivers critical, clear-eyed perspectives on Israel’s policies and the ideology of Zionism. While some try to frame the situation in Israel and Gaza as “complex,” I see it as brutally straightforward: a powerful, militarized state enforcing domination over a displaced and occupied people. What drew me to the channel was its unflinching honesty—paired with sharp, intelligent humor that challenges hypocrisy without ever mocking the human suffering at the core of the issue.

Josie

Every episode is more horrifying (albeit with laughs!) than the next. As Shabnam said, couldn't make it without y'all (see what I did there?!?) I would try to get you to come to South FloriDUH, but you would NOT believe what a hasbara shitshow it is down here 🙄😖😭

Riaz Abdulla

Yoga Nazi is like if a horrible Marvel Universe Janice Soprano was bitten by a radioactive Ze’ev Jabotinsky

Sat Pavan Kaur Khalsa

Westerners have co-opted yoga to have goat yoga, booty yoga, beer yoga, etc. why not genocide yoga. Being a good person with empathy does not need yoga or religion.

sentient

Lol Sat Pavan. That must be the missing ninth limb of yoga!

Scott Grabel

Like the Chris Rock joke, “Shalom! You Ashkenazi cracker!!!!”

Chad Walter

At about the 35min mark Daniel lists off different social constructs, cops, prison guard, etc. But then he lists "rapist" as a social construct and they just keep going. I wish he talked more about that because I'm kinda confused 😕

Mojtaba HUSAYNI Khamenei

he's being facetious about that, he's making the point that you're hated for what you do in the position you've chosen (as white-passing zionist Jews do whilst denying their position as white people and often denying that Zionism is a choice)
