Columbia Professor Shai Davidai, the Israeli academic made famous for confronting anti-Israel and anti-semitic protestors on campus in the wake of October 7, has launched a podcast on the subject of rising antisemitism, with its first guest being actress Debra Messing.

Davidai first rose to fame and national media attention after directly confronting anti-Israel and antisemitic protests on the campus of Columbia University, which exploded after October 7 and the subsequent war. Oftentimes, Davidai could be seen standing virtually alone in protest against the protestors' often aggressive behavior.

His first episode is with actress Debra Messing, and the podcast can be found on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts.
