Join our hosts for Monday’s show where we will be discussing: 'Britain’s Broken classrooms' and 'Does Islam have an antisemitism problem? '

Britain’s Broken classrooms

Across the UK, thousands of students are learning in environments that are quite literally falling apart. Join us as we explore how years of financial strain have impacted schools and what it means for students and teachers.

Does Islam have an antisemitism problem?

Is Islam really at odds with Judaism or is that just the story we’ve been told? Join us as we cut through the noise and dig into the real relationship between two of the world’s oldest faiths. From shared prophets and common roots to centuries of living side by side, there’s a lot more overlap than you might think. So where does the idea of conflict come from?
