Ep 36 | Jamie Geller | More Than a Mission

Jamie Geller is more than a public figure. She’s a mother, a wife, a woman of deep faith and purpose — and someone who has walked a powerful journey from a fast-paced media career in the U.S. to building an Orthodox Jewish life in Israel. In this intimate episode, Jamie opens up about who she is beneath the titles: the real person navigating motherhood, identity, ambition, and connection to God in the midst of it all. We talk about her personal transformation, what it really felt like to make Aliyah, and how she balances family with the responsibility of being a public voice for Am Yisrael — especially during wartime. Jamie shares the emotional impact of October 7, her hopes for the future, and her upcoming project: a powerful documentary aimed at telling our story to the world. Sweet, driven, and deeply relatable, Jamie brings honesty and heart to this conversation — and I know it will stay with you long after it ends.

Ep 35 | Shuva Achim - Trabelsi Brothers | Angels on the Frontline

Since the war broke out on October 7, the Trabelsi brothers — an incredible family from Moshav Shuva — have been showing up every single day for IDF soldiers stationed near the Gaza border. What began as a simple act of love quickly grew into an extraordinary volunteer operation at Shuva Junction: a rest station where thousands of soldiers have been welcomed with hot meals, supplies, laughter, and heartfelt support. On this episode, I sat down with Eliran and Dror Trabelsi — just two of the amazing brothers behind this nonstop effort — to hear their story. With no ego and no agenda, the brothers and their team continue to give everything they have for Am Yisrael and the brave soldiers defending our land. Their story is full of heart, humor, wild moments, and the kind of miracles that happen when people choose action over words. 💙 If you’d like to support the Shuva Brothers’ incredible work, or get involved, you can reach them here: Suppport Shuva Achim:   https://my.israelgives.org/en/fundme/ShuvaAchim Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/shuva_ahim Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/share/18sSTUqxY9/ Tiktok:  https://www.tiktok.com/@shuva_ahim

Ep 34 | Avi Liberman | Loud, Proud, Jewish

Avi Liberman is a sharp, fearless comedian who’s been delivering laughs for over two decades — whether on late-night American TV or onstage in a country he proudly defends: Israel. In this episode of The Dayna Show, Avi gets real about what it means to be a Jew in today’s world, the responsibility of speaking truth through comedy, and why standing with Israel — onstage and off — isn’t optional, it’s essential. We talk about resilience, Jewish pride, and using humor as a weapon against silence, fear, and hate. This is not just about comedy — it’s about standing up, speaking out, and staying rooted in who we are.

Ep 33 | Matan L. Samin | Israeli Uncensored

Matan Samin is sharp, fearless, and unapologetically himself — and this episode is just as unpredictable and honest as he is. We talk about Israel, identity, advocacy, the madness of social media, and what it really means to be Israeli right now. There’s humor, there’s depth, and there’s a whole lot in between. This conversation is fast, fiery, and completely unfiltered — we go from the serious to the absurd and back again, without skipping a beat. Fair warning: strong language is part of the ride — so if you’re sensitive to explicit expression, you’ve been warned. One of the most wide-ranging, real, and unapologetically honest episodes yet. Am Yisrael Chai!

Ep 31 | Anita Tucker | The Return: Gush Katif Lives on

Anita Tucker is the beating heart of Gush Katif — a pioneer who built Netzer Hazani from the sand dunes into thriving greenhouses that fed Israel and the world. For 30 years, she cultivated life, community, and faith, only to see it all torn away by the very government she served. The expulsion wasn’t just a political failure; it was a national tragedy that shattered thousands of lives. Anita’s resilience never broke — and today, she’s not just holding onto hope, she’s actively fighting to return, lobbying in the Knesset, and refusing to let Gush Katif remain a memory. My father, z”l, stood with her in that fight, and sitting with her now was deeply moving. In this powerful episode, Anita shares the pain, the purpose, and the living promise that one day, we will return. Am Yisrael Chai!   Support the Return to Gush Katif: https://lp.vp4.me/1gox Contact Anita: https://www.facebook.com/share/1CyZoxo9s3/

Ep 29 | Devorah Levine Katz | Warm Hug of the Gush

Devorah Levine Katz is someone I’ve known nearly my whole life—we grew up together in the same Jewish community in Toronto, shaped by shared values, deep Zionist roots, and families who believed fiercely in Israel. Today, she’s built a life in Gush Etzion as a mother of five, an educator, and among many other ventures, the beating heart behind Pat B’Melach and now Meshek 48, where people come to feel nourished—body and soul. This conversation was raw and real. We talked about the quiet heartbreak of being a parent in Israel right now, about how much we’ve changed since October 7, and what it means to carry all of that while still showing up for our families, our communities, and ourselves. Sitting with Devorah felt like something between a release and a return—full of honesty, tears, laughter, and moments that felt almost sacred. It’s one of the most emotionally charged interviews I’ve ever done, and I’m honored to share it with you. Am Yisrael Chai! Contact Devorah: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meshek48
