I want to like these podcasts more but over produced for me. Too short and not enough depth.

Each episode is a delicious appetizer, a taste of an individual volume from Jewish Lives, the outstanding series of biographies of influential Jews.

Excellent podcast on Moses. Alessandra Wollner Made Moses’s legacy alive and relevant to all those who tune into this outstanding podcast on the life of the prophet.

The Jewish Lives podcast fills a void for readers of Jewish biography to access fascinating content. The hostess has a lovely voice, allows the guests to complete their responses and listens to their reply rather than asking the next question on her prepared list. A delightful discovery.

It’s not my desire to be negative or mean, but in the interest of constructive criticism I honestly have to say that, despite being very interested in the topics, I find these podcasts just don’t hold my interest, and are very difficult for me even to sit through. I would strongly recommend that...Read full review »

Everything is so fascinating and enjoyable here - from the music to the host to the guests - and of course the topics are brilliant, and you will want to read all of the books! If you have any inclination to try this pod out then you must - you will be hooked!

I love the way you open the podcast and linked Emma Goldman to the female led activism in the present. But apart from learning a bit about her upbringing and free love/pro birth control/anti-feminist position, I learned almost nothing about Emma Goldman’s life, political activism,...Read full review »

I appreciated listening to the Moses podcast. It was informative and I enjoyed hearing from Aviva Gottlieb Zornberg. Looking forward to learning more from the book.

Marx is an historical figure everyone thinks they know. The podcast brought out aspects of Marx the person and political thinker that were interesting and informative. Alessandra Wollner engaged the biographer with interesting questions that allowed the biography to come to life in a brief podcast.

I had high hopes for this podcast but fully the first third was a shout out promoting the book series. I hung on for an additional few minutes and found the interviewer’s questions of a brilliant scholar to be very dull. A shame, I’d been looking forward with great anticipation to hearing this,...Read full review »

The host is amazing and well-prepared, and the interviews are leaving me hungry to read the full book length versions! Great listen.
