It's Super Bowl Sunday in the USA...but what does that have to do with Israeli music? Not much. But it gives us the chance to use the word *Super* more often than we should in hyping up this week's podcast...so join us for a SUPER collection of SUPER Israeli music! BTW...it'll be super.

Every so often, a collection of songs becomes greater than the sum of its parts. This week's playlist, in our humble opinion, is one of those great collections of music where is each song is better than the last. Listen and let us know if you agree!
