In our last episode for this High Holy Day series (and our last of both 5784 and 2024), we explore Yom Kippur. 


Days of Awe III - Yom Kippur

A look at the symbols, customs, laws, and practices of Rosh haShanah - from why its in Tishrei to why the Rabbis hate Tashlich. 


Days of Awe II - Rosh haShanah

The first of our three part series on the Yamim Nora'im. We look at the concept of Teshuvah, how to do it, and how it connects to the main prayers, symbols, and ideas of Rosh haShanah and Yom Kippur


Days of Awe I – Respond, Return, Regret

A very brief and very rapid look at 2000+ years of antisemitism, anti-Judaism and antizionism


Antisemitism 101

A whirlwind look at some of the ethical and halakhic issues surrounding sex and gender – from egalitarianism, to LGBT+ identities, Gittin, Shutafut, Niddah and Milah. 


Ethics I - Sex and Gender

Join us on a sloppy and slightly sarcastic 'Tour de Siddur' - all about prayer. Does prayer exist? Do we do it in Judaism? Is it obligatory? Why is the siddur so chonky?!


Tour de Siddur
