Episode description

As of a few days ago, Israel has a new Prime Minister, Yair Lapid. Due to a first-ever complex rotation agreement that was activated because a number of former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's party members helped bring down the government, Yair Lapid has become Prime Minister of Israel.

Lapid is an ex-Israeli TV media star who entered politics and is trying to represent the center-left of the Israeli public.

To understand more about who Yair Lapid is as a politician in Israel, watch this discussion I had with Caroline Glick back in 2017.
