Something Stinks at Columbia University but Thailand rules! (Feat. Davidson Boswell)
On this episode, Gabe and Sameer have comedian Davidson Boswell on the podcast. He joins us after recently returning from performing comedy for a couple months in Thailand. We learn more about performing comedy abroad and his travels in Asia.
We also talk about the protests at Columbia University, the "skunk water" attacks from IDF soldiers who happen to also go to school there and the non-existent response from the administration.
NOTE: Sameer's mic crapped out toward the end of the episode and we had to make the tough call of still publishing it after it wasn't salvagable. Don't worry, we figured out the problem and it won't be an issue next episode.

War Crimes Lawyers, Unerotic Dutch People, Jews for Peace w/ Jess Salomon
She’s been a Stand Up NBC finalist, done lots of cool festivals including Just for Laughs. Her debut album, “All the Best Choices” came out in 2019 with label, 800 Pound Gorilla which will soon release her debut comedy special and second album, "Sad Witch".
You can also watch her comedy special, “Marriage of Convenience” on the Just for Laugh’s YouTube channel, recorded with her wife as part of their duo act @theelsalomons.
Fun fact: before comedy Jess used to be a U.N. war crimes lawyer. The jury is still out on whether this was a good move.

Welcome To Soldiers of Light Radio feat. Luisa Diez
The response from Israel post October 7th has been devastating on civilians, especially children in Palestine. Gabe and Sameer have Luisa (their favorite guest) from Why You Mad podcast to talk about the current climate in the United States and abroad.
They discuss the immediate McCarthyist attempts at silencing people who question the indiscriminate killing of civilians by Israel as "self defense" in the entertainment industry (among many others)
They discuss various attempts at pink-washing and delegitimizing protest to attempt to force Americans to acquiesce and allow a genocide. We urge you to do regarding this subject matter, the kind one used to do at a library, not the kind people do on Instagram via memes.
Sameer talks about how Joe Biden spit in the face of Muslims and Arabs across the US and how as a community he has seen them vow not to vote Democrat ever again.
They also discuss the article from the New Yorker about Hasan Minhaj and how it was a hit piece along with his response video with receipts.
Some immediate moves you can make to help:
Demand an immediate ceasefire by calling an writing to your reps. www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/resource/call-congress-support-ceasefire/
Educate your family and friends about the evils of the occupation.
March at protests, speak up online.
Donate to families in Palestine irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/

The Open Air Prison Jail Break Episode
Sameer and Gabe talk about the October 7th attack from Hamas on Israel. Sameer talks about growing up in a mixed community and learning about the conditions in the West Bank at a young age. They fellas discuss the occupation and the consequences of the attack. Mostly, the fellas had no idea what was about to transpire in the days following. Stay tuned to future episodes for more updates as things unfold.
In advance of being trolled for our dialogue about this subject, we want to make sure that everyone knows that our point of view is that every human being should have freedom and be free of occupation. We value all human life, even those that we might politically disagree with.
Our episodes are free but we have a Patreon for fans to support the podcast. In lieu of joining the Patreon today we kindly ask that you donate money to Palestine Children's Relief Fund at the link below.
pcrf1.app.neoncrm.com/forms/gaza-relief
If you are unable to donate money, please make it a point to speak up and educate people on historic misconceptions caused by propaganda, harmful racial stereotypes that dehumanize people and the occupation in general.
And as always, be kind to each other and build bridges.
