| I thought I was having a heart attack | Two Cents | 15 Jan 2026 | 00:35:01 | |
In this episode of Two Cents, Rabbi Ari Bensoussan and Yossi Bensoussan sit down for a wide-ranging, honest conversation that starts with Shabbos experiences and ends somewhere much deeper. They reflect on powerful Shabbatonim, the unity created through shared Torah, and what it feels like to be in a room where nothing is being sold — just learned, lived, and felt. Then the conversation shifts. R’ Ari shares something he didn’t plan to share publicly: his personal experience with panic attacks and anxiety, the fear of not understanding what was happening to his body, and the moment he chose to speak openly about it during a live Q&A. What followed revealed how many people are quietly struggling — and how heavy the stigma still is. Together, Ari and Yossi discuss:
This is not a clinical discussion. It’s a real conversation — thoughtful, unfiltered, and grounded in lived reality.

| It's a Jungle Out There | Two Cents Podcast | 04 Jun 2026 | 00:47:20 | |
It's a jungle out there. But are we raising our kids to be afraid of the world... or to illuminate it? On this episode of Two Cents Live, R' Ari and Yossi Bensoussan react to the viral new Thank You Hashem Boys song, It's a Jungle Out There, and uncover the powerful message behind it. The conversation quickly turns into something much deeper: • Are we teaching our children what to avoid, or what they have to offer? Along the way, the brothers discuss parenting, technology, Jewish identity, the future of AI, learning new languages, and why today's generation may need a different approach than previous generations. A funny, thought-provoking, and unexpectedly deep conversation about raising children, embracing our mission, and finding our place in a very noisy world. | |||
