When was the last time you went barefoot? When the skin of your body touched the ground. At the beach, in the forest, in the park. Rebecca Harrell Tickle and Josh Tickle are a duo of documentary film directors in the USA. In 2012, they made a film called "The Big Fix" about the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Their film was very successful, though, during filming, she was exposed to pollution for an extended period. The exposure to the pollution caused her to develop severe skin disease.

Is it in the whole neighborhood? Does anyone else have no electricity? Has anyone got the power back yet? These were messages I received in the neighborhood WhatsApp group. At the beginning of June, the electricity went out in many places in Israel for a few hours. We had a situation called a power outage. Like, we don't have electricity in our houses. And it happened in the middle of a heat wave of more than 40 degrees Celsius. People were left without electricity, air conditioning, a refrigerator, and with very, very heavy heat. Why did it happen, and why will it continue if we don't start saving electricity now? You can find this episode's transcript and vocabulary list in the⁠⁠ ⁠Piece of Hebrew Club.
