Reviews
- Amazing lens through which to dissect the Ivy League
I learned so much by listening to Gatecrashers and was also entertained. The podcast feels especially insightful and poignant given current world events. The only thing I disagreed with as a fellow Yalie was Mark’s statement that Harvard is the most prestigious US university. 🙄

Thank you Mark and Tablet for creating a compassionate and compelling narrative around this topic! Very timely and the commercials are not too annoying. I binged all the episodes on a Saturday and was sad it was over!
Apple Podcasts5StarMD04United States3 months ago - An essential listen!
“Gatecrashers” is one of the best podcasts I’ve ever experienced. Absolutely fascinating. I attended an Ivy League university (Cornell), so it’s especially interesting to me. But you absolutely do NOT need to be a graduate of an Ivy to appreciate the shocking stories of how the highest rated schools in our nation actively and intentionally worked to keep Jewish students (“…they just don’t have the same social skills…”) out of the hallowed halls and off the lush quads.

These insights into the Jewish experience of the Ivies are insights into U.S. history and the non-Jewish social/political elite of the 20th century. I hope there is a second season.

I love all of the Tablet podcasts and highly recommend them. Gatecrashers is especially good. Well-produced, interesting on a number of fronts, and really plays to all of Mark Oppenheimer’s strengths. Each episode is excellent on its own.
