“I stumbled upon this podcast a couple years ago and was intrigued that Joshua Malina was on it. I am also a parasha geek and it was another way to keep up with the weekly Torah portion.
I wasn’t sure about this new format - answering listener questions. I have been won over. I love the Hanna...”Read full review »

“I know a lot of people probably started listening to the show because I’d Josh Molina and I loved that version too but I’m actually really enjoying the Q&A format and everything Hannah brings! And as always, Rabbi Shira brings so much wisdom, makes Judaism feel both accessible and also...”Read full review »

I agreed more with a critical letter sent by another listener and directed at the two hosts. Perhaps the hosts...”Read full review »

“Dear Rabbi
Can you convince Joshua to continue being part of your podcast. I teared up as you blessed him on the last episode. I think I was sad that he is leaving. I can’t imagine it without him. Nor can I say I’ll continue listening without Mr. Malina’s involvement.

“I’ve been loving this show, because of what I learn from it and because of the dynamic synergy between Josh and Rabbi. I really hope it returns but it will not be the same without Josh’s quick wit, broad Jewish knowledge and wacky energy. Rabbi Shira is wonderful too, but together, wow, they have...”Read full review »
