Advertise on podcast: Blake and Dylan

After a month-long hiatus, Blake and Dylan are back for 2026. This episode is a deep dive into spiritual homecomings, the art of "stooping" the streets of Tel Aviv, the "aperture" of timing, and why everyone seems to be in their "Chinese time" of life.

In this chaotic and "jocular" end-of-year special, Blake and Dylan are joined by special guest Lani to wrap up 2025. While Dylan adjusts to the working life at the Kempinski hotel (and struggles with elevator etiquette), Blake returns from a spiritual journey in Jerusalem involving stone readings and sleeping with stacks of paper under his pillow. From Ethiopian food adventures in Jaffa to terrifying late-night encounters with loose sewer tiles, the trio navigates the highs and lows of Tel Aviv life. They also dive deep into Jewish philosophy, debating the concepts of Bashert (destiny) versus Bechira (free will), and discuss why "reflection is redirection". Presented by OLIM IN TLV.

Blake and Dylan kick off the pod in matching "Hello Titty" shirts, diving straight into the chaos of their "bashert" friendship, the trauma of Diabetes Camp, and the art of "Mossing". From the launch of Blake’s social app Frith to the trials of joining a Gay Sports League, nothing is off-limits. Plus, they get spiritual for the month of Kislev, breaking down Parsha Miketz—and why you should never eat cheese before bed. Presented by OLIM IN TLV.
