1:05:26
From Boca Raton, Florida, this is Behind the Bima. His face is blurred, and his name is redacted by the Israeli government, but his story of heroism and resilience must be told. In a powerful and deeply moving episode, we sit down with "Guy," an active-duty sergeant major in the IDF's legendary Unit 669—the elite airborne search and rescue commando force. Guy provides a rare look inside the grueling physical and psychological training designed to forge soldiers who can run toward danger and rescue anyone, from any situation, under overwhelming fire. He shares a gripping, firsthand account of October 7th, from the initial chaotic call-up to driving into a warzone, treating endless casualties amidst a stream of terrorists, liberating kibbutzim, and the surreal moments that followed. Guy also opens up about the invisible wounds of war, the dark humor soldiers use to survive, and how he and his fiancée, Noga—a commander in her own right—navigated their relationship through text messages, not knowing if the other was still alive. Learn how Guy's private journal, chronicling his service, unexpectedly became a best-selling book in Israel, giving a voice to an entire generation of soldiers. Find Guy's new book, "The Rescue: October 7th Through the Eyes of Israel's Top Rescue Commandos," on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

When Silence Was No Longer an Option: Congressman Randy Fine

In this episode of Behind the Bima, Rabbi Efrem Goldberg sits down with Congressman Randy Fine, one of the most outspoken defenders of the Jewish people and the State of Israel in American politics today. This episode is sponsored by Eli & Eva Genauer in observance of the Yahrzeit of his grandfather, Moshe Yehuda ben Binyomin HaLevi Genauer, on the 8th of Kislev. Congressman Fine shares the powerful story behind his decision to wear a kippah every day on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, becoming the first member of Congress in history to do so. What began as a conversation with his teenage son became a defining public statement of Jewish pride at a time when many feel pressure to hide. The conversation explores:Standing visibly Jewish in an era of rising antisemitismThe personal cost—and responsibility—of moral clarityGrowing up Jewish in Kentucky and confronting hate early in lifeFlorida’s role as one of the safest states in America for JewsSchool choice, Jewish day school security, and public policyIsrael after October 7 and the changing political landscapeLeadership, courage, and the price of speaking plainly This is a candid, unscripted discussion about identity, responsibility, and what it means to lead as a Jew in historic times... exactly the kind of conversation Behind the Bima was created to host.
