Episode 1 saw Safran travelling to Israel where his Palestinian boom mic operator made a donation to a sperm bank, then to the West Bank where a donation to a clinic was made by John, in an attempt to make half Jewish half Palestinian children - a "Jalestinian". Noting that he has dated three Eurasian women, Safran conducts an experiment by stealing and smelling the underwear of five Jewish and five Eurasian women (including Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls and actress Dichen Lachman) to see which he "prefers".

In this eight part adventure, John throws himself into the real world to ask, when it comes to love: Should you stick with your tribe or escape your tribe? John races from Togo to Palestine, from UK to Thailand. He gets his hands dirty and body bloodied. But he comes home with the answers you need. Whether you have jungle fever, yellow fever or pasty Jew fever, this is your guide to love in the age of Obama.
