Our government up to its old tricks and there's no one to stop them.

Through rain and sleet and hail and dead of night....Israelisms will podcast.

We can even tie in the Republican Primary to Israeli politics. How's that?!

Tying in Republican primaries to Israeli politics. Only we can do it.

Noam Shalit is running for a spot in Labor. Good move? Bad move? Hear the argument!

It's raining!!

It's 2012 and you know what that mean....more Israelisms! And you don't even have to be religious.

Or Christmas, or Solstice, or whatever. We cover it all and then some. 

It's a special edition with more nonsense about Israel than should be allowed.

Carol wants you to write to us so you'd better write to us. The email address is israelisms@gmail.com

And she's not kiddin'.

Happy Thanksgiving, and Black Friday and assorted revolutions.

So much for cease fire, huh? Plus...Sam isn't with us this week. But there's good news, too!

Samantha takes over as host of today's show and she does a heckuva job!

Let's face it....that's all everyone is talking about

The Jerusalem Light Rail System starts and can't get it together. But that's okay...neither can the rest of the country.

Back from Chicago and you can hear all about it. Oh yeah...and Israel stuff, too.

LAST ONE FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. WE'RE GOING TO THE STATES FOR VACATION AND WE'LL CATCH UP WHEN WE GET BACK!

The Israeli government isn't giving us much to talk about but that's never stopped us before.

And other confusing stuff

Greece is the word and they stop the flotillas

Elvis gets a bath

Charley is bad with ages

 Going to see Comedy For Koby and urge everyone to donate to the Koby Foundation

Carol provides the information...Charley throws in some misinformation. A normal show, all in all.

Carol flirts with fame and circumcision. And that's the normal part of the show.

We talk about Scotland, of all places. And all other things concerning our little corner of the world.

We pretty much only talk about Bibi's speech to the United States Congress. And ain't that enough?

Let the fires begin!! And of course we talk about the Rapture, and Nakba, and the Obama speech and all sorts of other things that we can do nothing about. Join in!

Weird weather in Israel. Plus Memorial Day, Independence Day, and not watching American Idol! GO BULLS!!

We talk about so many things it's hard to describe so you'll just have to listen. And HAPPY ISRAEL INDEPENDENCE DAY

The Royal Wedding was captivating...even here

Should we talk to Fatah/Hamas Govt.? Well, Carol and Charley can yell at each other about it!

And all sorts of other stuff

National comedy tour and crises that aren't ours. 

And as Andy Kim would say, "Oh, baby Na Na Na Na Na Na Na"

Small little war going on in the South and Charley can't bring himself to buy a belt. Trials and Tribulations.

Sam joins us in the studio to talk about things that are happening in Israel and stuff.

Carol has a sneezing attack until a mysterious roll of toilet paper appears. HAPPY PURIM EVERYBODY!!

Not a lot of good news out there...but that never stopped us from doing a podcast.

Still not much happening, but we make a go of it

finally

Just when you thought she had gone away forever...we talk about her

Today we talked about Egypt. And then we talked about Egypt. Guess what we talked about after that.

No...seriously...we were robbed. It was not a great week around here and it had nothing to do with politics!

Buy Charley's soon to be best-selling novel "5ive Speed" at Amazon and you'll be happy you did.

Ehud Barak quits Labor and seals his fate as being just plain dumb.

Carol got her TwittaBling and she's very excited about it.

And other stuff

First we have problems with the audio, and this week it is the video. It's just so hard to keep up these days. We still plowed through it, though. Enjoy.

Nothing but problems these last couple weeks. It took us two tries to get this one up. I guess that's what happens when you live in a third world country. I'm blaming Eli Yishai and Shas....or Bibi...or Lieberman...or Barak.

Enjoy.

Deep Purple is coming! And so is Bon Jovi! Yeah for the classic rockers!!
