World News of the Week (WNW) with Maya and Dad
Ten year old Maya and her dad, Jeremy, discuss major news events each week, hoping to inspire other families to discuss the big issues at their dinner tables, on their way to school or, frankly, whenever it works in their busy family lives.
We examine a major event, ask questions of each other and hope to find some answers... and raise more questions!

Answering Listener Questions About Events in Israel
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
During a heartbreaking time in Israel, we did our best to answer questions sent in by listeners and friends. How did this conflict start? What is Hamas? Will Israel's response bring other countries in? Are there Jews in Gaza? How big is Israel? We even talked about how do we talk about these issues in our home...Inevitably, on a show that runs about 15 minutes long, we had to speak briefly about some issues that are very, very complex and couldn't give full history. That said, the purpose of this show is to start the conversation and we hope you will keep this one, in particular, going in your home.
