I just had the most delightful conversation with Judith Weiss of Kesher Talk, straight from Savadotty’s Soup Salon in Tel Aviv.

Today’s soup was gazpacho.

As it turns out, Savadotty’s oldest cousin’s granddaughter works at Blog Talk Radio, and her niece has a new Blog Talk Radio show starting next Tuesday, Call Your Nana, at 4PM EDT. We’ll have to listen!

Savadotty herself and their newcomer friend Noam joined Judith and I. We talked about politics, current events and life in Israel. One of the most interesting points we discussed is how Israel’s security situation puts a different perspective on innovation, entrepeneurship, and risk-taking.

Savadotty, blogger a former Princeton resident, is a most warm lady and when I get to Israel I’ll have to drop by for some soup.

Listen to the archived podcast; I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did making it.

While you’re at it, don’t miss yesterday’s podcast on Tony Blair.
