From Bokuritone, Florida, this is Behind the Bima.

In this episode, Rabbi Goldberg and co-hosts Rabbi Josh Brody and Rabbi Philip Maskowitz

are joined by Sini and Sarah Zimbabst, parents of El-Emo, who was killed in Gaza a few weeks ago.

The Zimbablist discussed Elie Mo's tremendous love for his fellow Jews on Hashem,

share stories of his dedication and sense of duty, and explain what lessons we can

learn from the short yet impact for life. Plus, can we share space with people we disagree with? All this and more,

Behind the Bima. Welcome back to Behind the Bima. Rabbi Ephraim Gull, we're joined by my dear friends and

colleagues, Rabbi Philip Moskowitz, and Rabbi Josh Brody.

And we are back with a very powerful conversation, a very tragic and sad episode, continuing to focus, of course, on Israel.

And Simi and Sarah Zimbalist, whose son Elimoshu was tragically killed, fighting, defending the Jewish people, and the very powerful conversation we had with them. But first, first, I want to catch up with you, Rabbis. I was in Israel. I recorded that there in the Dabru Studios in Modian. My sister happens to have a podcast studio, which is only growing in its popularity being used. People on the right and the left, really, really amazing conversations coming out of it and they're kind

enough now a second or third time lent it to me for a couple of conversations and it was really

really amazing but that that's the positive that it's growing i'll tell you something very sad about

it with my sister's position permission she had a very sad story that she you know she has the

equivalent of like a we work there it's called front desk where people rent office space.

And then there was a vacancy.

And she was talking to somebody who was looking into renting it.

It seemed very happy about it.

And they got a text a day later by the person who looked like they were going to rent it and said, you know, thanks, but no, thanks.

I'm not going to do it.

So she called and said, you know, what's the issue? I'm happy to talk to you about price. What went wrong? What's going on about it? So the person said the issue is that you have a podcast studio in that space, and some of the guests that the podcasters have on are very right wing. And they might be offensive to clients I have or people I work with. And I can't afford to lose business if someone's coming to meet with me in my office

and they see in that hall they walk past or in your podcast studio there's somebody who they disagree

with who's on the right who they don't want to be in the same space as so I can't rent for you.
