The conversation between host Shai and guest Montana Tucker covers a wide range of topics centered around Montana's identity, advocacy, and experiences. Montana Tucker, a singer, dancer, model, actress, and social media activist, discusses her strong Jewish identity and advocacy for Israel and Jewish people. She shares her background, mentioning her grandparents who were Holocaust survivors, which deeply influences her activism. Montana talks about her decision to openly express her Jewish identity, despite stereotypes and societal pressures. She recounts her experience at the Grammys, where she wore a dress with a yellow ribbon to raise awareness for hostages held in Gaza, despite facing resistance from the Recording Academy. The discussion also touches on the challenges of advocating for Israel and Jewish causes in the entertainment industry, where there is often fear of backlash. Montana emphasizes the importance of using her platform to educate and inspire others, particularly through her docuseries "How to Never Forget," which aims to educate younger generations about the Holocaust. Montana shares her personal journey, from starting in the entertainment industry at a young age to becoming an advocate. She highlights the impact of her advocacy work, including a powerful dance project at the Nova Festival site, which aimed to honor victims and survivors of a tragic event there.
