<p>After his viral interview with <strong>Tucker Carlson</strong>, Ambassador Mike Huckabee joins Rabbi Efrem Goldberg for a candid and wide-ranging conversation recorded in Israel.</p>
<p>This conversation discusses:</p>
<ul>
 <li>What really happened in the Tucker Carlson interview</li>
 <li>The danger of half-truths and clipped narratives</li>
 <li>Whether antisemitic rhetoric should be ignored or confronted</li>
 <li>Rising political fractures on both the right and the left</li>
 <li>The future of bipartisan support for Israel</li>
 <li>Why evangelical support for Israel is “non-negotiable”</li>
 <li>Accusations of dual loyalty — and how to answer them</li>
 <li>Israeli resilience in wartime</li>
 <li>Faith as an anchor in uncertain times</li>
</ul>
<p>At its core, this is a conversation about conviction — what it means to stand firm without losing composure, and why truth requires courage.<br>
