Israel’s Most CANCELLED Comedian Turns Jew-Hate Into Comedy | Yohay Sponder
Stand-up comic and self-described "Self-Loving Jew" Yohay Sponder joins Jonah Platt on Being Jewish to talk about getting canceled in Amsterdam and Australia for being Israeli, why boycotters actually doubled his income, and how he turned those threats into sold-out shows and lawsuits.
