Yoni Flies Solo
November 16, 2023 13:59 - 43 minutes - 81.1 MBYoni flies solo (meaning no guest) for this very personal show. The past month has been one that’s frightening and scary throughout the world. Between the events in Israel and Gaza, to the insanity going on in the United States and around the world, Yoni has a lot to get off his chest, which he does with brutal honesty. This is an almost completely political episode you won't want to miss.
The World According To Yoni with Returning Guest, Dwayne Epstein
October 18, 2023 17:59 - 50 minutes - 39.2 MBAfter a somewhat lengthy absence (don’t ask why — you really don’t want to know), The World According to Yoni is back with friend of the show, Dwayne Epstein, author of the new Amazon Best-Seller, Killing Generals: The Making of The Dirty Dozen, a wonderful follow-up to his last book (and NY Times Best Seller), Lee Marvin: Point Blank. And during his absence from the airwaves, Yoni has not mellowed, as you'll note from his politically charged mini-rant at the end of the show.

And, naturally, Yoni has a few things to say regarding the current state of American politics. This episode runs a tad longer than most, so you’ll need to leave yourself a little time more time to listen than usual.
