  • L'Chaim - To Life S16 E6 (24-06-2026) with Michael Gawenda, Dean Hurlston, Gareth Narunsky and Sharon Kuper
    Jun 24 2026
    The program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM Title: L’Chaim – To Life Mythbuster – Things You Didn't Know Were invented By Jews (*from 0:34 mins) Description: Inventions, innovations, and breakthroughs created by Jewish inventors, scientists, and entrepreneurs that are embedded so deeply into modern daily life that most people use them without any idea who made them. From the polio vaccine that saved millions of lives to the search engine you to the jeans you're probably wearing right now — Jewish innovators created or co-created products, technologies, medical breakthroughs, and systems that the modern world cannot function without. Who invented each one, when they created it, what their Jewish background was, why Jewish overrepresentation in innovation mirrors the same pattern seen in Nobel Prizes and academic achievement, how cultural emphasis on education, inquiry, and argumentation produced a population that innovates at a rate wildly disproportionate to its size, why most people don't know the inventors behind these creations were Jewish, and what the full list reveals about a community that represents 0.2% of the global population but created an outsized share of the tools, medicines, technologies, and systems the other 99.8% depends on daily. Title: Michael Gawenda – The cartoonists were the stars of the paper (*from 18:25 mins) Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Michael Gawenda, Walkley Award winner, and former editor and editor-in-chief of The Age, about the Cathy Wilcox cartoon, ‘Grass Roots’, that appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age earlier this year. Michael talks about the important role traditionally played by the political cartoonist in the popular press and the process he followed as editor in assessing whether a cartoon should be published. He also talks about the work of the Australian Press Council and his agreement with its important, forceful decision that Wilcox’s cartoon had encoded harmful antisemitic tropes that Jews secretly controlled or manipulated global events, governments and the media.

Title: KAN English News Flash – June 24, 2026 at 2PM IDT (*from 34:11 mins) The latest English language radio news bulletin from KAN, the Israeli Broadcasting Service. Title: Dean Hurlston – Our vision is really to see an Australia where antisemitism is just not possible (*from 41:47 mins) Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Dean Hurlston, State Director for Allies for a Strong Australia. Dean outlines how Never Again Is Now that was founded by Mark Leach, has now morphed into the grassroots movement Allies for a Strong Australia, having chapters in New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australian and Victoria, with strong interest now in South Australia and Tasmania, for the continued planed nationwide expansion in every electorate. With the Bondi slaughter the wake-up call for all Australians, together the Allies for a Strong Australia are taking a stand against antisemitism that is plaguing Australia and hate. Social cohesion is under severe strain with our democratic values being tested. Allies exists because Australia needs people who are prepared to stand up, speak clearly, build friendships, defend community cohesion, support the Jewish community and others subjected to hate, by strengthening the values that keep Australia, safe, free and united. The Allies chapters are local teams of committed Australians who meet regularly, welcome new supporters, run community events, support rallies, build bridges with churches and faith communities and help turn the shared conviction of social cohesion into practical values and action. The Allies will not surrender to the hatred and division that is now being propagated by radical Islam, hard core leftism, and dishonest media. For more information to join and support the Allies for a Strong Australia go to www.theallies.au or contact Dean at dean@theallies.au. Donations are tax deductible.

He also talks about the potentially serious consequences of cancelling an Israeli trauma surgeon from attending a conference just weeks before the terrorist attack on Bondi Beach. While some hospital administrators have been pro-active in dealing with antisemitism, others continue to ignore the problem. For doctors, allied health providers, medical students and patients who are seeking assistance on dealing with an antisemitic incident, please email info@azha.org.au with details.
