Jori and Abby kick this episode off talking current events because everything’s a total hot mess, and we gotta chime in. Jori celebrates the “end” of COVID in New York, but laments the scary upsurge of antisemitism across the US. Abby provides some insight into her first experience with rockets in Israel, including taking shelter in the building’s stairwell at ungodly hours, jolting up from every sound that sounds vaguely like a rocket siren, and hitting up a Tel Aviv dance bar that doubles as a basement bomb shelter.

Afterwards, you’ll hear from guest Elan Karoll, this week’s Chicago-based Kosh Boy, about his experiences navigating the Chicago dating scene and advocating for Israel. He talks about his first jarring experience with rockets in the summer of 2014, which was the profound moment in which he knew he was always going to stand with Israel. He provides tips for Israel supporters looking to connect with Israel through their personal passions and interests - apparently, the possibilities are endless. He strongly encourages Jews to share their truths and broadcast their Jewish pride to the world.

We also get into Elan’s dating life, and how he’s spending Vaxxed and Waxed Summer 2021. He’s been working out throughout the Rona, and he’s looking good, ladies! Finally, he shares his recommendations for hangouts in Chicago’s Jewish scene, so you know exactly where to go next time you’re in the Windy City. Make sure to give him a call while you’re there :)
