My wife and I are home today with the kids, juggling various different responsibilities, including caring for all three children (L.A. public schools are still closed this week for winter break) while we are both working.
We no longer have a nanny to help with our 6-month-old, so that is a challenge, especially for my wife. On top of that, my wife -- who is a labor economist -- is juggling responses to the latest unemployment figures, and trying to participate in the most important economic conference of the year, and making dinner for Shabbat besides. (She's incredible.)
I guess this sort of thing became routine during the worst days of the pandemic, and we are almost back there again. I love being with my family, yet the task of managing it all is quite a challenge.
The country needs to get back to school, back to the office, back to normal.
Today's episode is devoted to the second anniversary of the October 7 terror attacks. It was produced before the announcement of a ceasefire deal, yet remains current & relevant.
Please listen, and #bringthemhome.

This week's portion is a beautiful poem, containing the Covenant between God and the people of Israel. But given the breaking news that Hamas may actually have agreed to release all of the Israeli hostages, I will devote my remarks to that.
One hopes it is true; if so, it makes this week's additional reading, from II Samuel 22, even more relevant: David's song of praise to the Lord for delivering him from the hand of his enemies.
"18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support."
So much to focus on this week -- and much breaking news. A peace deal in the Middle East, perhaps? Eric Adams dropping out of the mayor's race? And a looming shutdown as Democrats push their demands beyond absurdity.
Special guests:
- Bradley Jaye - Breitbart News congressional correspondent, on the shutdown
- John Carney - Breitbart News financial editor, on the upcoming jobs report
- Jerome Hudson - Breitbart News entertainment editor, on the Kimmel fallout
- Frances Martel - Breitbart News foreign editor, on the UN and Gaza talks
- Matisyahu - award-winning reggae artist, on his new album, "Ancient Child"
