Ambulance Chasers: The Marketing of United Hatzalah, Chapter One

Unmasking the Myths: Did United Hatzalah and Eli Beer Build a Legacy on Stories That Don’t Add Up?

90 Seconds, written by Nachman Seltzer, tells the story of Eli Beer and United Hatzalah, but this podcast is a fact-checking mission that puts its sweeping claims under scrutiny. Instead of accepting the book’s narratives of Holocaust remembrance, trauma, and lifesaving heroics at face value, we investigate whether the stories, numbers, and dramatic anecdotes hold up against documented facts and independent records. This series asks tough questions about how Jewish history and memory are invoked, how organizations like United Hatzalah present themselves, and what happens when mythmaking replaces truth.
