It feels both sad and true that it took this October's tragedies to rouse a oneness among Jews that would be a dream at times of peace. All too often, it's an outside threat that lumps us together as “the Jews.” In this episode, we talk about that lump. We talk about beards. Episode 40 was recorded in the good ol' days of a few weeks ago, before we were swallowed up. When we could whimsically dissect our differences with that constant belief: they don’t ultimately matter. We’ll be recording something soon that doesn't pretend the outside world doesn't exist — but in the meantime, here's a couple voices from a lighter time. Credits: Neighs, neighs (Ancient Lithuanian War Song), Umbrella by The Laurie Berkner Band, Our Way and Something To Live For by Nosson Zand, Uniform Convergence by Stephanie Chou and Mr. Kim Gotlieb teaches Tefillin.
