Uri Schneider, a speech-language pathologist in New York and Israel, and Ari Gershonovitch, a person who stutters in Israel, join Peter Reitzes to discuss stuttering issues in Israel. This is StutterTalk's first episode in a new, occasional series we are calling Stuttering Across the Globe.

Ari has been listening to StutterTalk for years and regularly posts at the StutterTalk Facebook page.

During today's episode we discuss many topics including stuttering in Israel, facing stuttering related fears, speaking patterns in Yeshivas and in the religious community, stuttering and military service,  an article by Ruth Ezrati-Vinacour and Nitza Weinstein titled "A dialouge among various cultures and its manifestation in stuttering therapy" currently in-press at the Journal of Fluency Disorders and a chapter in Advice to Those Who Stutter by Margaret Rainey which discusses stuttering in Israel and much more.
