Rebels, Rule-Haters & Breakers

This episode is about the precariousness of life (a new baby!), and embracing anxiety along with the joy.

A story about being present for what is...and preparing for Yom Kippur.

This is a funny (also crazy) story about identity, the Social Security Administration, changing names. A problem more common than you'd think, in trying to prove who you are, but also a really serious delve into who we are on the inside. I think you'll enjoy it.

This episode I tell about my (amazing) trip to Los Angeles for a social justice trip with Tzedek America!

I'm sure you're wondering about the connection between justice and chocolate milkshakes. You'll have to listen to find out. I can tell you, however, that, despite the humorous title, this is not a humorous episode. But it is a heartwarming and hopeful one.

In this episode, I share some vulnerable moments when I "failed" to live up to my "rabbinic" self. (Just to be clear, I'm not the one who told someone to mind their own business*&%#$! business).There are three funny little stories here. Again, I hope you enjoy the episode!

Here I reflect on my first mind-blowing trip to the Deep South with an organization called Tzedek America, exposing teenagers to the difficult legacy of American slavery, the Civil Rights Movements, and the continuing challenges faced by Black communities with the School to Prison Pipeline, as it's called. Included is my crazy return home during the time when TSA workers were not being paid by the Trump administration. I think you'll enjoy my stories.

There's a new war. There are false gods. Oh, and Purim too. It's not a pretty story. What's the lesson we need to derive from it all? Is BEING Jewish more important than Jewish PRACTICE?

About a funeral and breaking all the rules, which I love. But the rules are for something, too. How do we know when they should be preserved?

A continuation of my thoughts on my trip to Israel...and what I was seeking
