Customer Reviews
Podcast
Wonderful podcast very entertaining. I love your stand-up, your bright and witty. You also seem to be a Mench. One suggestion is to get rid of the woman on the podcast as she is terrible and distracting. Her screaming, lack of intelligence, poor grammar and her “OMG” comment after everything is irritating and sophomoric , all take away from the quality of your podcast. Not sure what value your husband provides on a podcast minus whatever administrative stuff he may do behind the scenes but having him on the microphone serves no purpose. My wife and I look forward to seeing you live soon. Am Yisrael Chai
I really want to like it
I’m not familiar with Modi but some of the episodes’ subjects interested me. However, the episodes I’ve listened to are nearly unlistenable because all the speakers talking over each other makes many things undecipherable. The guests have to work extra hard to get a word in which seems like the opposite of hospitality and welcoming. Why even record these conversations? So people can become aware of your rudeness and lack of manners? Go off I guess
Kaporos originally forbidden
I’m a historian who specialized in Early Modern European Jewish Thought. When kaporos began, which was in Europe, the local rabbis knew it was being adapted from non-Jewish magical folk traditions. So they opposed it as superstition. They actually banned it. But especially in times of great stress, people will do what they want, if they believe it will help them. Kaporos is *not* in the Torah!
I’m not a vegetarian but I love animals and live where I can get meat that was raised on small, local farms. I hate kaporos — it is NOT KOSHER. Thank you for standing against it.
