It’s time for our annual August Chagigot – four straight weeks of shows where we take one topic and dig up every great Israeli song we can find about it! This week we’re kicking things off with ‘Chagigat Shirei Chibukim V’neshikot’ – a celebration of songs about hugs and kisses – in honor of Tu B’Av, the Jewish holiday of love, which just took place last week. For the next hour, we’re playing nothing but songs that talk about hugging and kissing…because is there any topic more fitting for a holiday all about love? Get ready for an hour that’s equal parts sweet, romantic, and maybe a little bit cheesy – just the way we like it! (Original Air Date: August 2, 2026)(Original Air Date: August 2, 2026)
