As we remember October 7 and the lives forever changed by the massacre in Israel, we’re revisiting this important conversation with radio host, writer, policy and communications expert Seth Leibsohn.

In this episode, Loren, Greg, and Ian sit down with Seth to examine cognitive dissonance and the difficult questions surrounding America and Israel’s fight for survival. The conversation asks us to confront what happens when deeply held beliefs collide with facts that are difficult or painful to accept.

What happens when the basic facts themselves become contested? How do our communities, media, ideologies, and personal biases shape the way we understand events? And how do we reconcile our convictions when people or movements we support commit acts that challenge those convictions?

The discussion explores the aftermath of October 7 and the war in Gaza, the future of Israel and Gaza, America’s role, the media’s portrayal of the conflict, and the influence of competing ideologies. At its heart is a larger question: What does it mean to pursue truth when truth is uncomfortable?

On this October 7 commemoration, we return to this conversation not simply to revisit the events of the past, but to consider how we understand them—and what our response to them reveals about our commitment to truth, morality, and one another.

We remember those who were murdered, those who were taken hostage, those who continue to carry the wounds of that day, and the families whose lives were changed forever.

Bonded Voices seeks to foster meaningful conversations, particularly among men, about truth, responsibility, faith, family, society, and the difficult questions of our time.
