Welcome to my new podcast. On a recent visit to one of America’s largest cities, I walked into a JCC where the Israeli flag flies proudly at the entrance. In the locker room, a local woman leaned toward me and whispered: “I’m a Zionist.” She didn’t feel it was something she could say out loud - even though Israel’s Independence Day is celebrated every year on the lawn just outside. That quiet whisper captures the profound crisis world Jewry is facing today. Some are indifferent to Israel. Ot ...

Each episode will focus on a different aspect or example of the general theme. Our kick-off frame is the awkward position that progressives find themselves in.

Our lives are frequently and significantly affected by food. Because we must eat to survive, many human cultures have developed with food at their very core. Through prosperous times and depression what we eat has influenced art, music, science, relationships, and more. In this fast-paced world, we often don't take the time to consider how food gets to our plates, the importance of what and how that food is produced and the aesthetics of food requirements and food enjoyment.
