On episode 13 of the Rational Policy Podcast, join your hosts
and for a deep dive on two important subjects in today’s politics. First, we discuss the US-brokered hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas, delving into the specifics, the reactions, and more. We talk about how this deal came to be, whether it could have happened under the Biden administration, who deserves credit, and what may come next for Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, and the region more broadly. The second topic revolves around the rising trend on both left and right to avoid criticism of excesses, abuses, or issues on their own side of the aisle. This ‘No Enemies to the Left/Right’ ideology has taken root across the political spectrum, coarsening our politics and allowing radicalism to not only be excused, but embraced. Rest assured, dear listener, your humble hosts will never hesitate to criticize anyone and everyone!Check it out, follow us on Twitter/X (Mike / Art), and share the podcast with anyone you think might appreciate it. And let us know what you think of the new music! Thanks, as always, for listening.
