Revisiting The Heart Of Jewish Comedy with Raanan Hershberg
28/10/2026 | 46 minWhat’s so funny about growing up as a Conservative Jew in Kentucky? Plenty, according to comedian Raanan Hershberg. We’re off this week, so we’re revisiting one of our favorite conversations, where Noam and Raanan tackle Jewish upbringing, antisemitism, and how the Bible drives Jewish humor.
check out Raanan's latest special, Morbidly Jewish, here: https://youtu.be/2Kc6151SE1U?si=KCetUPtHiGtJUWsg

Unpacking Israeli HistoryIs Antisemitism On Campus As Bad As It Seems?
21/10/2026 | 42 minIn the aftermath of October 7th, our feeds were filled with reports of antisemitism at Columbia and UCLA, among other colleges. But are these schools part of a broader trend, or merely outliers that received outsize attention? In this episode, Noam sits down with Ethan Goetz, a leader of Jewish student life at the University of Miami. The discussion isn't about what other colleges are doing wrong. Instead, Ethan lays out what Miami is doing right, and shares a moving story about his own Jewish journey. There's also plenty of sports talk, cholent recipes, and a spontaneous recital of the Barchu.
Wondering Jews thanks Hillel International for introducing us to inspiring student leaders across the nation, including Ethan. To learn more about Hillel, visit hillel.org

Unpacking Israeli HistoryOn East Of Eden, Dinner With God, And Ambition
14/10/2026 | 47 minIs ambition a virtue that allows us to reach our full potential? Or is it a trap that leaves us dissatisfied and burnt out? With Florence Pugh starring in a new Netflix adaptation of Noam's favorite book (East Of Eden), it seems like a great time to wonder about the ambitions of Steinbeck's most notorious character, and why that matters for the rest of us. Along the way, Mijal has her own thoughts on a viral "would you rather" question, Jewish leadership, and Simchat Torah.

Unpacking Israeli HistoryAre We As Divided As We Think? Reflections On October 7th
07/10/2026 | 37 minIn the immediate aftermath of October 7th, 2023, there were incredible signs of unity within and alongside the Jewish people. But there were also moments of profound division. Three years later, how has this infamous date--and the subsequent war in Gaza--brought people closer together, or further apart? Mijal and Noam's discussion is one of hope: perhaps tragedy has united us more than television or social media would have us believe. Emotions run high as Mijal and Noam reflect, reminisce, and discuss the future of Israel and the Jewish people in this new reality.
This episode is generously sponsored by Nadina and Fernando Szew, in honor of their deep care for Jewish education and their enduring love of our peoplehood and Israel.

Unpacking Israeli HistoryHow Mikey Greenblatt Turns Hate Into "Jewish Fan Mail"
30/09/2026 | 42 minAntisemitism on social media seems worse than ever. Scrolling through Instagram, X, or TikTok is enough to make any Jewish person hyperventilate. But are things as bad in real life as they are on the internet? And if not, how can we learn to take the trolling with a grain of (kosher) salt? There's no better guide than Mikey Greenblatt, who turns nasty comments on his posts into "Jewish Fan Mail." In a heart-to-heart with Noam, Mikey explains how his connection to audience members means so much more to him than vitriol from anonymous bots and trolls.
