• American TV and film star Joshua Malina shares how Israeli doctors and scientists are on the front lines of the battle against COVID-19
 
• Chefs from around the world debate whether falafel is the quintessential Israeli food, and Adeena Sussman, author of the bestselling cookbook Sababa, teaches us how to make it
 
• Isaac Herzog, the son of former Israeli President Chaim Herzogz”l, tells a story about Israel’s War of Independence, then pays tribute to former Prime Minister David Ben-Gurionz”l
 
• Exclusive footage of Israel’s official Independence Day ceremony on Mt. Herzl
