  • Thank you for this

    This podcast is hugely informative. I live in an area of the country with a relatively small Jewish community so this podcast is a great way for me to feel connected and to learn. Highly recommend

  • One of my favorite podcasts

    Adam Zagoria-Moffet takes a deep dive into all kinds of aspects of Judaism and Jewish history, from the standpoint of a Masorti (Conservative) rabbi rather than the usual viewpoint of Chassidus. His talks are fascinating, well-paced, scholarly and accessible. He answers all kinds of questions I’ve had for years. I find his discussions enthralling, and far more interesting than any other podcast I’ve heard on Judaism.
