  • Insightful podcast asking relevant questions throughout the Jewish world

    Rabbi Daniel provides a much needed insight into the modern Jewish world asking leaders the necessary questions to help Jews understand the landscape beyond the headlines, history between the lines, and providing a great introduction to varying viewpoints throughout the Jewish community. Keep up the great work and I look forward to future episodes with new guests and following up with past guests!
