Call Me Back - with Dan Senor · Tisha b'Av: The Bottom of the Calendar - with Rachel Goldberg-Polin · 20 Jul 2026 podcast

And he said, we're only going to be able to find redemption if we figure out how to have baseless love.

You know, that kind of sounds like it would take a miracle, right?

and that it's not something that's really real or possible.

But I remember what David Ben-Gurion, our first prime minister of Israel, said.

He said famously, in Israel, to be a realist, you have to believe in miracles.

And so I think about the great Al Michaels asking the question, do you believe in miracles?

I'm trying to say that if the first prime minister of Israel, if David Ben-Gurion said that in Israel, to be a realist, you have to believe in miracles, then it follows from that, that of course, Al Michaels asks, do you believe in miracles?

And I am telling you, Dan, yes, I do.

Yes, I do.

And may this be a Tisha B'Av that is flooded with meaning and with miracles.

And may we all find comfort among the mourners of Jerusalem.

May we start to have the ability to have some sort of baseless love, even if it's just baseless like.

Let's just start with baseless like, one foot in front of the other, and let's hope to get there.

There has to be a way that we keep walking.

And I think it's easier for some than for others.

I think that some are bearing horrific challenges.

And so there really is no judgment there.

But I do think that the idea of how can we work on this repair?

you know, when a tsunami happens, we've talked about this, like on the one hand, oh my gosh, this is like complete and utter emptiness now.

And on the other hand, now you have this blank canvas and we have so much opportunity.
