Recorded on Monday 15th December - 1st day of Chanukah


Rabbi Dovid Lewis and Imam Nasser Kurdy respond to the anti-semitic terrorist attack on Bondi Beach in Australia on Sunday 14th December, which claimed the life of Dovid’s second cousin, Rabbi Eli Schlanger, and fourteen others attending the menorah-lighting celebration on the first night of Chanukah, including another rabbi and a Holocaust survivor.


Dovid and Nasser talk about: how their Sundays unfolded; the ‘stranger’ who reached out to console Dovid; Nasser’s reflections on the extraordinary bravery of Ahmed Al Ahmed, the Muslim man who ran towards the gunman in Bondi and saved many lives; and, together, they try to find hope and inspiration in the story and message of Chanukah – known as the 'Festival of Lights'.

This is a Mark Schweiger and Larchmont Productions co-production.
