Political turmoil has been rocking the nation of Israel in recent times, with the suggested judicial reforms put forth by the Netanyahu government at the center of the storm.

The reforms have been met with fierce opposition for many quarters, and the country remains divided on the matter. The situation has been complicated by the fact that hundreds

of economists have written a letter warning that the reforms could have a negative impact on

Israel's economy. The government is comprised of ultra-orthodox parties whose demographics threatened to collapse

the country's economy in the coming decades.

This, combined with the proposed reforms, has created a perfect storm of economic uncertainty

in Israel.

Joining us today on the podcast is Data Journalist Idan Eritz, an economist, writer, and political

activists. Erich holds a bachelor's degree in economics and history from Tel Aviv University.

He's currently working at Globes, one of Israel's most important economic news outlets.

Eretz is a libertarian, sort of, who supports a free market, reducing regulations and lowering

taxes.

He is also a member of the political lobby, Our Interest, translated to English, and one of the

founders of the association, Freedom for All.

On today's show, we'll be discussing the current state of the Israeli economy and the

potential impact of the proposed reforms. And what's amazing about this intro,

it was all written by Chad GPD. And it could have been read by Chad GPD. Yeah, it could
