When antisemitism surged after the October 7th attacks — and even years before — two Jewish journalists Bianna Golodryga (CNN) and Yonit Levi (Israel’s Channel 12) found themselves searching for something that didn’t exist: a way to help their kids make sense of the hate suddenly appearing in their feeds, schools, and daily lives.

So they wrote the book themselves.In this episode, Mosh talks with Bianna and Yonit about their new novel, 'Don’t Feed the Lion,' which follows a 13-year-old boy confronting antisemitism in the age of social media — and why this age group desperately needs tools adults have long overlooked.

The conversation goes far beyond the book. As veteran anchors covering two continents, they unpack the global rise in antisemitic incidents, political fractures inside Israel, the shifting dynamics between the U.S., Israel, Netanyahu, and Trump, and how major news outlets — including their own — have struggled to cover antisemitism before and after October 7th.
