    Welcome to episode 450. My thanks to so many of you for subscribing and supporting the podcast. In celebration of this milestone, I present a champion athlete who never shies away from challenge. Meet Todd Vogt, champion rower, who has dedicated himself to the sport of rowing for decades. Six years ago, when Todd turned 44, he was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson’s Disease. As devastating as the news was, it didn’t take Todd long to get back on the water and focus on winning. He recently participated in the 2024 Para Olympics in Paris and continues to train and mentor young rowers. Todd is a reminder to us all that in life, the most important way to row is forward!

    Today, a discussion about the ever evolving Middle East crises. Noted historian Daniel Pipes, the author of “Israel Victory: How Zionists Win Acceptance and Palestinians Get Liberated,” joins us to offer a new approach to the problems. Dr. Pipes believes it is time for a radical change in the way both Israel and the Palestinians approach their security and self-determination. The Palestinians must finally stop their rejectionism of Israel while the Jewish state can no longer afford to offer conciliations that consistently backfire. We explore the definition of victory, both on and off the battlefield, that could lead to peace.
