Summary
For the first episode of The Thin Veil , Ezra welcomes filmmaker Skyler Carrico —whose chance online critique became a turning point in Ezra’s journey toward a deeper understanding of Palestine and the systems shaping our world. Together, they trace their parallel paths of political awakening, including a shared reckoning with the influence of figures like Sam Harris, and what it feels like to confront the possibility that you’ve been deeply misinformed. Skyler shares his experience traveling to the West Bank in 2024, where he encountered both the realities of life under occupation and the resilience, warmth, and humanity of the people he met. The conversation moves through media, ideology, and empire—while asking harder questions about responsibility, perception, and what it means to keep showing up once the narrative begins to unravel. For this episode we'd like to highlight and encourage your support towards The Sameer Project , a donations based initiative, led by Palestinians in the diaspora, working to supply aid to displaced families in Gaza.
