Title: Rev Mark Leach – Never Again Is Now: Standing up against hatred (*from 1:18 mins) (Original broadcast date: May 01, 2024) Segment Podcast Link: https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/rev-mark-leach-never-again-is-now-standing-against Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Rev Mark Leach, co-founder of ‘Never Again Is Now’, a grassroots Christian movement educating and mobilising Christians to actively stand against the oldest of the world's hatreds: Jew-hatred-antisemitism. ‘Never Again Is Now’ stands on the Australian values of respect, compassion, freedom, truth and love; firmly believing that there is never an excuse for antisemitism. Whatever the views might be on the war in Gaza, ‘Never Again Is Now’ believes that Australians must stand together in solidarity with their Jewish friends and neighbours. After a massively successful ‘Never Again Is Now’ rally in Sydney in mid-February followed by another heart-warming rally in Adelaide, the next ‘Never Again Is Now’ rally is in Melbourne on Sunday, May 19. It promises to be another massive supportive rally. Please spread the word and encourage everyone to come along and show their support for the Jewish community and Israel.

Title: KAN English News Flash – January 08, 2025 at 2PM (IST) (*from mins) Come back after 11:30PM AEDT Title: Dr Michelle Ananda-Rajah MP – I cannot fathom how any human can do this to anyone else (*from 18:10 mins) (Original broadcast date: March 13, 2024) Segment Podcast Link: https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/dr-michelle-ananda-rajah-mp-i-cannot-fathom-how-an Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Dr Michelle Ananda-Rajah MP, Federal Member for the Melbourne seat of Higgins in the House of Representatives, about her support for the Australian Jewish community. She describes in detail her recent visit to Israel as a member of a cross-party delegation of Australian politicians to the sites of the Hamas terrorist attacks in the South; the need to dismantle Hamas; and the recent UN report that found the conflict-related sexual violence occurred on October 7th, was perpetrated on hostages and may still be going on for those in captivity. Title: Senator Dave Sharma – There is a false equivalence between antisemitism and Islamophobia (*from 34:58 mins) (Original broadcast date: March 06, 2024) Segment Podcast Link: https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/senator-dave-sharma-there-is-a-false-equivalence-b Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Senator Dave Sharma, Liberal senator for New South Wales. As Australia's Ambassador to Israel (2013-2017) with many more years’ experience in foreign affairs, Senator Sharma presents a clear historical understanding of the foundation, and development of the State of Israel into the modern state and OECD economy that it is. Through the resilience and creativity of the people of Israel, there simply isn’t anything like it anywhere in the world. Senator Sharma is unequivocal, stating that Israel has the absolute right to defend itself against Hamas/Iran's proxy, which is committed to the destruction of Israel, and has no interest in the wellbeing of the Palestinians. Jews are the indigenous people of the land of Israel in the Middle East, Israel is not a coloniser, Israel is not an apartheid state and no, Israel is not committing genocide! That’s the Hamas sole ideological purpose. He goes onto say: “UNRWA is part of the problem, not part of the solution”. Australia should not be funding UNRWA anymore; UNRWA is a recipe for the conflict's prolongation. Australia has handled the rise of anti-Israel antisemitism which has crossed the line of Australia's civic values from the outset, having created a climate of tolerance. Australia needs to see strong leadership from law enforcement and political leaders across the political spectrum. There is no visible manifestation or evidence of growing Islamophobia in Australia.

The Y-Studs are back with our grooviest release yet, A Jackson 5 Chanukah! This year, we’re fusing the soulful sounds of Motown with the timeless story of Chanukah. Just like the Maccabees brought light to the darkness, the Jackson 5 brought joy and energy to music - and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate the Festival of Lights. Chanukah is all about perseverance, miracles, and spreading light, and we hope this fun, soulful twist on some classics brings that spirit to life for you. Who says you can’t dance while lighting the Menorah?

  • L'Chaim - To Life SU2024 E1 (25-12-2024) with Six13, Racheli Kofsky, Freya Leach, Ramona Chrapot and Mia Schem
    Dec 25 2024
    The program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM This week’s Summer Series episode is focusing on: The Gen Z Advocates. Title: Six13 – A Wicked Chanukah (*from 0:23 mins) Description: The song, by veteran Jewish a cappella group Six13, is a voice-only medley of music from the box office smash prequel to the classic movie “The Wizard of Oz”. The parallels between their story, the ancient one we celebrate, and the ongoing struggle we endure today -- fighting against the odds, overcoming oppression and vilification -- are not lost on us. We hope you'll find this just as meaningful. Chag Sameach! Title: Racheli Kofsky – Dear Mr Dutton ….. (*from 5:48 mins) (Original broadcast date: December 11, 2024) Segment Podcast Link: https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/racheli-kofsky-dear-mr-dutton Description: An Open Letter to the Opposition Leader, The Hon Peter Dutton MP, from Adass Israel congregant Racheli Kofsky, Jewish Australian. Title: KAN English News Flash – December 25, 2024 at 2PM (IST) (*from 10:26 mins) Description: The latest bulletin from the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation. Title: Freya Leach – Student activist Marching for the Living and Israel, to say Never Again Is Now (from 17:51 mins) (Original broadcast date: June 12, 2024) Segment Podcast Link: https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/freya-leach-student-activist-marching-for-the-livi Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Freya Leach, Christian activist and Director of the Centre for Youth Policy, studying for a Bachelor of Commerce and a Bachelor of Law at Sydney University, with a very active social media following and frequently appearing as a special guest at events focusing on young people and politics. As part of the Australian delegation, Freya recently participated on the 31st March Of The Living (MOTL) at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration and extermination camp. She tells us how privileged and life changing the MOTL experience first in Poland with Holocaust survivors and then in Israel was, and how it was the ultimate triumph of life and goodness over death and evil. Freya tells us that the importance of remembering and education is critical. Upon arriving in Israel for the second week of MOTL, the delegation was taken straight to the South to witness the October 7 devastation, which Freya finds difficult to describe, an "apocalyptic scene". Freya featured recently on the Josh Frydenberg documentary “Never Again - The Fight Against Antisemitism”, and tells us about the very hostile state of affairs at our universities, with the pro-Palestinian students wanting to create fear and intimidate the silent majority of supportive students for Israel and Jewish community into silence, so that any support for Israel is crushed with Zionists and Jews not welcome on university campuses. Freya also spoke at the Never Again Is Now rally in Brisbane over the weekend, which had another wonderful attendance and support for the Jewish community and Israel. Our L'Chaim listeners can follow Freya Leach and Never Again Is Now on social media: Instagram and FaceBook at freya.leach.

Leading the mission, we hear from Ramona about the mission's visit to the October 7 devastated communities in Israel's south and to the Nova Festival massacre site, needless to say totally impactful along with the mission's visit to new Hostages Square in Tel Aviv, meeting and speaking with family members of the 134 hostages still in Gaza captivity. The mission met with leaders, communities and Israelis from all walks of life, who have united and come together to support each other and Israel through yet another threatening existential war that Israel must defend and prosecute for its continued survival and that of the Jewish people. The very important experience and messages that Ramona and the youth leaders returned to Australia with are that we as Jews in Australia who are also now in a war, a war of anti-Semitism, are to be standing tall and proud as Jews and Zionists in support and advocating for Israel. Omein to that, achdut. Bring Them Home Now. Follow Ramona Chrapot's ZFA's social media advocacy @_didjewknow.
