Sitting down with Adam Scott Bellos felt long overdue.
As a fellow podcaster, he understands the weight of having a platform — the work, the responsibility, and the intention behind every word. Adam is direct, authentic, witty, clever, and incredibly articulate — not someone who softens his message to make people comfortable.
A Tel Aviv–based entrepreneur, IDF veteran, journalist, and founder of The Israel Innovation Fund, Adam also launched initiatives like Wine on the Vine — connecting supporters around the world to Israeli wineries and strengthening Jewish resilience through tangible action.
He’s become one of the more outspoken voices challenging ego-driven advocacy and what he calls performative activism.
In this episode, we talk about rising antisemitism, institutional failure, influencer culture, and his belief that Jewish survival requires strength, strategy, and sovereignty — not just better messaging.
No fluff. No filter. Just like him.

Kim Bash | Your Address: Israel | Episode 65

🧦 Sponsor: Groovim Socks Get 45₪ off when you order 3+ pairs using the link below or code DAYNA at checkout. 👉 https://groovim.co.il/DAYNA
Kim Bash was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and made Aliyah in 2004, building her life in Jerusalem where she now works as a real estate agent helping Anglo families buy homes across Israel. A Baalat Teshuva who lives in the Old City, her faith and her Zionism are deeply woven into the work she does.
Kim and I met years ago during a very different chapter of my life. I was rebuilding, in a place that felt uncertain. Our paths crossed quietly back then. Sitting across from her now — both of us still here, both still choosing Israel — felt deeply full circle. In this episode, we go beyond property.
We talk about what it means to be Jewish right now. The rise in antisemitism. The instability so many Jews are feeling around the world. Kim speaks passionately about why she believes Jews shouldn’t wait until they are forced into difficult decisions. If you can come to Israel — or at least anchor yourself here — do it from strength, not from fear.
We talk about her journey becoming religious, her life inside the walls of the Old City, and why helping Jews build homes in Israel feels to her like part of something much bigger than business.
This episode is about roots, responsibility, and choosing to build your future in the Jewish homeland.

Michael HarPaz | Roots & Rhythm | Episode 64

🧦 Sponsor: Groovim Socks Get 45₪ off when you order 3+ pairs using the link below or code DAYNA at checkout. 👉 https://groovim.co.il/DAYNA
Michael Harpaz is an entertainer, singer, and creator who was born in the United States to Israeli parents, with Israel always part of who he is. Hebrew was spoken at home and Israel was never an idea — it was family. In this episode we go beyond the stage to meet the person behind the music — his journey, his roots, and what brought him to build his life here.
We talk about growing up in a musical home, his experience in Hi-Five, and what it’s like to live a creative life in Israel — the energy of performing, the joy of connecting with audiences, and the gratitude he feels doing what he loves.
Michael also shares about his advocacy for Israel and how, for him, music and values are deeply connected. We touch briefly on Kochav HaBa, but the focus is the human story — creativity, identity, and staying true to yourself.

In this episode, I sat down with Akiva Nachman Hart, whose story — shared publicly with his wife Chava and their family through House of Lev — has touched people around the world who are searching for meaning and truth.
This conversation moves through spirituality, the soul, and the kind of transformation that doesn’t happen overnight… but changes everything. Not just what you believe — but who you become. Akiva shares what it feels like to search for answers, to find truth in Judaism, and to step into a new identity with your whole heart.
We explore belonging, acceptance in the Jewish community, the pull toward building a life in Israel, and what it means to finally feel aligned — spiritually, emotionally, and deeply inside yourself.
And woven through the episode is his art — because when a person feels more complete, creativity doesn’t disappear. It becomes clearer. More honest. More alive.

🧦 Sponsor: Groovim Socks Get 45₪ off when you order 3+ pairs using the link below or code DAYNA at checkout. 👉 https://groovim.co.il/DAYNA
Vlad Patrati has been part of the Israeli CrossFit community since its early, grassroots days — growing alongside a scene that evolved from small, local boxes into a strong, connected community with a respected name in the international CrossFit world.
Over the years, Vlad has lived the sport from every angle — as an athlete, a seasoned competitor who has stepped onto the competition floor multiple times, and today as a CrossFit Level 3 coach. Known for his positivity, constant smile, and calm professionalism, he brings experience without ego. Through online coaching, community-building competitions, and his STOIX Podcast, Vlad continues to help strengthen and connect the Israeli CrossFit community.
Because CrossFit once played a meaningful role in my own life, this conversation felt personal. Together, we reflect on growth — of the sport, the community, and ourselves — and on how our relationship with strength evolves over time.

Rawan Osman | Braveheart | Episode 61

🧦 Sponsor: Groovim Socks Get 45₪ off when you order 3+ pairs using the link below or code DAYNA at checkout. 👉 https://groovim.co.il/DAYNA
Rawan Osman is a Syrian-born activist who brings lived experience and clarity to difficult conversations about antisemitism, Israel, and Jewish identity.
In this episode, we talk about her secular upbringing, the anti-Jewish ideas she was exposed to from a young age, and what led her to question and reject those narratives. The conversation expands into the bigger issues of antisemitism, why Jews are targeted, how hostility toward Israel is shaped, and the role ideology plays in all of it.
Rawan shares how her view of Israel changed, why unity within Israeli society matters, and speaks openly about identity, standing publicly for what you believe in, and her ongoing journey toward Judaism and conversion. She does so with conviction, courage, and an unapologetic honesty — qualities that, to me, embody a true Eshet Chayil, (Woman of Valor).

🧦 Sponsor: Groovim Socks Get 45₪ off when you order 3+ pairs using the link below or code DAYNA at checkout.  👉 https://groovim.co.il/DAYNA
Rina Kreiner is a psychotherapist specializing in expressive arts therapy, parenting guidance, and couples counseling, with decades of experience working with families and adults in Israel. We’ve known each other for many years, and in this episode we sit down for an open, thoughtful conversation about parenting cross different stages of life, relationships, divorce, and the emotional patterns that shape who we become. We talk about raising children, learning to let go, staying connected without losing yourself, and the long-term impact of family dynamics.
We also touch briefly on Rina’s current focus today — working primarily with adult women navigating emotionally draining or confusing relationships, and supporting them in rebuilding trust in themselves.

Josh A | The Presence of History | Episode 59

The Dayna Show returns with an episode that brings Jewish history out of books and into the real world.
My guest is Josh A, an Israeli antique collector with a strong presence on social media, where he shares rare artifacts from across Jewish history — coins, maps, inscriptions, and objects from different time periods. Through what he collects and presents, Josh offers tangible proof of Jewish life and continuity in the Land of Israel, paired with deep historical knowledge and historical context. With Hanukkah having just passed, this conversation touches on the Hashmonaim (Hasmonean) period, ancient life in this region, and why Jewish history still matters today — especially at a time when facts are questioned and antisemitism is rising.
Thoughtful, fascinating, and grounding, this is a conversation I truly loved.

Beatie Deutsch | Faith, Family & Finish Lines | Episode 58

Beatie Deutsch is an ultra-Orthodox marathon runner and elite athlete representing Israel — someone who has crossed finish lines most of us can’t imagine, and pushed herself far beyond what’s expected or conventional.
In this episode of The Dayna Show, I sit down with Beatie Deutsch for a conversation that goes far beyond athletic performance. Yes, we talk about elite sport, discipline, and what it takes to compete — and win — at the highest levels. But this episode is really about values, identity, and purpose.
We speak openly about Beatie’s faith in God, how her relationship with faith has evolved throughout her athletic journey, and the role belief plays when the physical and mental demands become overwhelming. She shares what it truly means to represent Israel on the global stage — not just as an athlete, but as someone carrying responsibility, pride, and meaning.
We also talk about how sport unexpectedly turned her into an advocate for Israel — how running, competition, and visibility gave her a voice, and how she chooses to use it with integrity and courage.
This conversation is about more than running.
It’s about values and priorities.
Faith and resilience.
And choosing excellence without compromising who you are or what you stand for.

Amir Hetsroni | Beyond Hate | Episode 57

Amir Hetsroni is an Israeli media scholar and former professor of communications, as well as a novelist, stand-up comedian, and provocative social-media commentator.
He is one of the most controversial public figures in Israel today — outspoken, unfiltered, and constantly pushing boundaries. People know the clips, the statements, the outrage — but almost no one knows the person behind all of it.
In this episode, I wanted to understand not what he says, but why he says it. Where did this persona come from? What shaped the anger, the humor, the need to provoke?
This is not about justifying him or defending his opinions. It’s about curiosity. It’s about understanding the psychology, the story, and the human motivations behind someone who has become a national lightning rod.
You may feel the same way about him when you finish watching — and that’s completely fine. But for the next hour, we’re going deeper than headlines.
Curiosity isn’t agreement. It’s simply the courage to ask, why is this person the way they are?
