Ask a Jew

Yael and Chaya Leah kick around the idea of mezuzah merch, talk about the kosher haven that is Cancun, and try to bring back smoking, as G_d intended.We also debut a new interview feature, People You Thought Were Jewish! Starting with our good friend, journalist and media mogul Nancy Rommelmann, who despite being a funny writer from New York, is actually not a Jew. Have any ideas for people we could interview who just *feel* Jewish to you, but are not?

Chaya Leah and Yael make it 90 seconds before talking about the Holocaust, but don’t worry, it’s funny (though if you’re not Jewish please don’t laugh). Yael learns about sexy Hasidic men with back tattoos, and is also relieved to find out she can indeed be buried in a Jewish cemetery, despite her 90210 tramp stamp. The girls also grapple with a Talmudic question concerning an ugly bride, determine it’s ok to pray for the Yankees to lose, and Chaya Leah tells of her special not-at-all creepy Sam Harrisspreadsheet.Joing the AAJ conversation on Susbtack! askajew.substack.comEmail us your questions askajewpod@gmail.com ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Want to help us grow?
