In this week’s podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward editor at large J.J. Goldberg to discuss why the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations is sending out emails critical of the deal to free Gilad Shalit. Then, David A.M. Wilensky of the Jewish student magazine New Voices lays out why some Jewish college students remain deeply skeptical of the Occupy Wall St. movement. Finally, Forward fellow Naomi Zeveloff drops by to discuss a new petition that calls for the Attorney General to investigate claims of judicial misconduct in the trial of former Agriprocessors executive Sholom Rubashkin.
