I love to listen to this podcast before I go to sleep. It is a way ti relax, recall the time I spent in Israel during my youth and celebrate chaggim with music and banter. The podcast being about an hour or longer is perfect timing.

I have been listening for many years and have loved the music and the community. Josh. I really love that you are doing more narration and more education for each song. It really helps enjoy the music. I’m here in Tel Aviv for a week and closer to the Source. Thank you
