Bad Hasbara 99: Nepo Daddy, with Dr. Gab...

Matt Lieb
About this episode

Matt and Daniel are joined by Daniel's father, author and activist Dr. Gabor Maté to reach a deeper pun-derstanding of Daniel's sense of humor, to ponder the pleas for empathy from Gaza's aggressors in Israel, and to ask whether Miss Rachel should be jailed at Guantánamo Bay, or possibly offered the leniency of our famously chill domestic SuperMax prison system.
