NEW (Dateline Nov. 8th) After yet another prolonged absence due to Covid brain (trust us, you don’t wanna know), Yoni is back with a vengeance. This week’s show is all Yoni. After lying in bed for almost a month and a half, Yoni, who spent a good deal of his time watching the news, and listening to politically-oriented shows (like Stephanie Miller’s), has a lot to say about what’s happening in this country. While Yoni spends a lot of time talking politics, he also discusses the social ramifications of the current political climate in this country. Yoni’s passion and spirit makes this a particularly fascinating and gripping show. Word of warning to the easily offended — this week’s show brings out the New Yorker in Yoni, so be prepared for our host at his saltiest.

The Grand Experiment — WATY’s First Livestream
Yoni goes live for the 1st time, sharing his thoughts on the January 6th insurrection, the way the Covid pandemic has been mishandled, the Democrats inability to do whatever it takes to beat the RethugliQanon threat to this country, because they so desperately want something they can’t have, and won’t get — bipartisanship, and the so-called “opioid” crisis. He also responds to audience questions and comments at the end of the show.
