Ms. Que Banh<p>Having my tea while my breakfast congee is cooking &amp; watching one of my fave YouTube channels, the <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FridayNightSemites" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FridayNightSemites</span></a> podcast.<br>Hosted by <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Palestinian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Palestinian</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/comedian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>comedian</span></a> Sammy Obeid &amp; <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Jewish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jewish</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/filmmaker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>filmmaker</span></a> Josh Healey.</p><p>Currently watching this episode:</p><p>Noam Shuster-Eliassi: The Israeli Comic Laughing in the Face of Apartheid</p><p>Noam Shuster-Eliassi is a self-described “traitor comedian” – an Israeli artist, activist, and all-around cultural troublemaker who isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of what’s possible. Growing up in Israel’s only intentional Jewish/Palestinian community called Neve Shalom / Wahat as-Salam (‘Oasis of Peace’), Noam refused to join the Israeli army and instead became an organizer against the occupation. Now, she’s turning her unique perspective into comedy that takes on everything from Israeli censorship to the contradictions of what she calls the “peace industry.” Think of her humor as the antidote to Israel’s polished PR—challenging, honest, and unapologetically bold.</p><p>In this episode, Noam breaks down her one-woman show, Coexistence My Ass (yes, that’s really the name), the reactions to her pro-Palestine material, and the toll of being a loud voice for human rights and equality from Gaza to the West Bank and inside present-day Israel itself. She also dishes out some wild stories from her time at East Jerusalem’s “Corona Hotel” quarantine, shares what it’s like to speak at international peace summits without pulling punches, and dives into her own, not-so-sanitized take on Israel’s official narratives. This conversation gets real about the risks (and occasional rewards) of using comedy to cut through apartheid, dehumanization, and the unspoken hierarchies baked into Israeli society.</p><p><a href="https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=64atewhC8vE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">m.youtube.com/watch?v=64atewhC</span><span class="invisible">8vE</span></a></p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcast</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/NoamShuster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoamShuster</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Humour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Humour</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/JewishComedian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JewishComedian</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Palestine</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaza</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/comedy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>comedy</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/StandUpComedy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StandUpComedy</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/IsraeliComic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IsraeliComic</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ComicActivism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ComicActivism</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/LaughterIsMedicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaughterIsMedicine</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FreePalestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreePalestine</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Humanitarians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Humanitarians</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AntiZionistJews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiZionistJews</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ZionismIsACult" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZionismIsACult</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/conversations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>conversations</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/JewsAgainstOccupation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JewsAgainstOccupation</span></a></p>
Francisca Sinn<p>Look, I don’t want to over promise, because it might not be the same for you, but it’s a pretty stressful time right now and not many things are making me laugh, but I laughed out loud watching this. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SethMeyers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SethMeyers</span></a> for the win. </p><p>So if you have the choice between listening to another 15 min of the orange blathering cesspool of hate, or even another 15 min of the amazing Kamala Harris, maybe give yourself a break and watch this:</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/XznQin7BfBE?si=af2RCCrRiSJhLXkR" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">youtu.be/XznQin7BfBE?si=af2RCC</span><span class="invisible">rRiSJhLXkR</span></a> </p><p>Thanks, Seth. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/LaughterIsMedicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaughterIsMedicine</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Vote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vote</span></a></p>
