This episode of Season 2 of 'A Dram and a Drash' departs from the normal format as we take some time with members of my family (my brother-in-law and sister-in-law) who both do remarkable work in Israel. In this episode we start with the 'drash' and reflect on the experience inside Israel since October 7, 2023. This episode was recorded on Friday, December 22, shortly before Shabbat in Israel. And so we ended with the 'dram' - a L'Chaim with a hope and a prayer for better times ahead.
