Dirty Dancing w/Emily Alhadeff

In this week's episode, Daniel and Harry are joined by Seattle based writer and podcaster Emily Alhadeff to discuss the 1987 classic “Dirty Dancing,” starring Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze. Listen along as they uncover the film's concealed - but undeniable - Jewishness, consider the history of Jewish independence and assimilation in the United States, and are convinced once and for all why no one puts baby in a corner. As always, they end the episode by ranking the film’s Jewishness.
