0:00.0	Hi, this is Yonit. This episode was recorded before the terror attack in Tel Aviv on Thursday night.
0:06.1	Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the dead and the wounded, and we are hoping for quiet days and better news.
0:26.7	Hello, I'm Yonit Levy of Channel 12 in Tel Aviv.
0:29.9	And I'm Jonathan Friedland of The Guardian in London.
0:33.9	And we are unholy two Jews on the News from Keshe podcast. Hi, Jonathan.
0:37.8	Hello, Yonit. I'm all sort of hesitating a little bit to ask how you are,
0:39.4	because I've been following the news,
0:43.5	and I have a feeling that this is not wholly welcome development.
0:46.9	Look, I think we can talk about the fate of the country and the political quagmire and all that,

1:18.5	It would have to, it would have to be a street that sort of, maybe, you know, like a circular
1:22.4	street. Can it be the unique levee highway?
1:25.2	Highway, but it should be one of those circular routes where you just keep coming back again and again and again, because it is a kind of groundhog day thing for you and these elections.
1:33.8	And we are going to find ourselves, again, I fear, talking about, you know, what your little tricks are to get through a 15-hour broadcast, little nuts and snacks.
1:44.2	We're going to be having that. I mean, we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves. It's and snacks. We're going to be having that.
1:45.1	I mean, we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves.
