I found this wonderful website through my Rabbi who suggested this as a resource for my conversion to Judaism. I look forward to every new episode as well as past ones. There is such a variety of topics that spark my interest in so many areas. I am very grateful for this opportunity to learn and understand Jewish Religious culture and values. I also am grateful for the JewCurious staff for doing their part to expose antisemitism through their signs and resources on their website.
