Excellent series of interviews

36 is an excellent series of interviews with a very diverse set of Israelis of different ages, ethnicities, backgrounds, histories and stories. How Justin, the interviewer, finds and persuades these people to talk must be a story in and of itself. The people and their lives are so varied that not surprisingly some interviews are more interesting to me than others, but Justin is a good interviewer - caring, friendly, and disingenuous- such that every interview is at least of some interest and helps convey and reinforce the wonderful diversity and inspirational stories and people of this extraordinary country. Some interviews I found personally inspiring: those with Amos Yadlin, Doron Almog, and Rabbi Shalom Sharon.
