Episode 25 of The Erin Molan Show features one of the most powerful and heartbreaking interviews yet. Erin speaks with Eli Sharabi, who was kidnapped by Hamas on October 7 and held hostage in Gaza for 491 days. During his captivity, he was deceived into believing his wife and two daughters were still alive — only to learn after his release that they had been murdered moments after his abduction. His story — now told in his new book “Hostage” — is one of unimaginable loss, strength, and survival. But before this emotional conversation, Erin dives into the week’s headlines with her trademark sharp wit and moral clarity:
