Between the Lines
Between the Lines is a student-led podcast at Reichman University exploring the people, ideas, and experiences behind some of the most complex political and social questions in Israel and beyond. Through conversations with academics, researchers, students, immigrants, and members of different communities, the podcast brings together perspectives that are often separated by political, religious, cultural, or social boundaries. Our goal is not to tell listeners what to think, but to create meaningful conversations that allow them to understand the people and ideas behind the issues.
