Episode notes

I'm giving this episode over to two brilliant 19-year-olds who energize the worlds around them.

Zoom Rockman’s a magazine & newspaper satirist, a cartoonist and commissioned artist who at such a tender age has already left the Beano for Private Eye and from the Savoy to the Churchill hotels, where his distinctive sketches of Sir Winston Churchill now grace the walls.

Harry Markham’s a self-declared "unapologetic” Zionist, who confronts Jew-hate on university campuses. While that role is important to him, he stresses an even greater emphasis in wanting to shake both Jews and Israelis into a greater appreciation of Zionism.

I repeat, they’re both just 19.

LISTEN to this episode to hear how this time and place is producing such inspiring young Anglo-Jews.
