  • This is important

    In the episode with Agnes Borinsky. You were trying to think of a queer pun on “Maimonides.” And I do not understand why you didn’t say Bi-monides. This is bi erasure at its most insidious!!! Five stars this is a great podcast!!!!!!!!!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

"The video of your sins after you die" with Raye Schiller and Antonia Lassar

They share several playful, candid picks and banter about dream crushes, with both acknowledging the fantasy nature of the question and riffing on celebrities who would be entertaining partners for a joke bit, revealing their chemistry and humor style.
"The most Jewish romcom ever made" with Jonah Feingold
Q: What advice do you have for aspiring filmmakers?
Act like your movie is already made during the writing process, as this can inspire new ideas and clarity about your film's direction.
"The most Jewish romcom ever made" with Jonah Feingold

"The most Jewish romcom ever made" with Jonah Feingold
Q: What are your thoughts on modern romance and how it reflects in films?
Rom-coms have been diluted over time, losing their substance and authenticity. They should reflect real emotion and relationships rather than adhere to clichés and formulas.
"The most Jewish romcom ever made" with Jonah Feingold
Q: Can you tell us about the chemistry in casting actors for your film?
Chemistry in casting is crucial, and I consider it a chemical reaction that cannot be faked. Familiar pairings like Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone often work because they share a certain energetic similarity.
