About

After his viral interview with Tucker Carlson, Ambassador Mike Huckabee joins Rabbi Efrem Goldberg for a candid and wide-ranging conversation recorded in Israel.


This conversation discusses:



    What really happened in the Tucker Carlson interview
    The danger of half-truths and clipped narratives
    Whether antisemitic rhetoric should be ignored or confronted
    Rising political fractures on both the right and the left
    The future of bipartisan support for Israel
    Why evangelical support for Israel is “non-negotiable”
    Accusations of dual loyalty — and how to answer them
    Israeli resilience in wartime
    Faith as an anchor in uncertain times

At its core, this is a conversation about conviction — what it means to stand firm without losing composure, and why truth requires courage.
