In this episode of Ask A Jew, we answer your questions like why can religious Jews go into a mosque but not a church? Does an alarm clock need to be kosher? And should you say a prayer every time you use the bathroom?

Before we get to that though, we cover our thoughts on if it's ok to go back to posting day to day things on Instagram, our strange social media algorithms, the NYC Meetup wrap-up, the ugliest of all the Hadid’s, war isn’t a Loony Tunes cartoon, what we’re angry about today, AND - is TJ Maxx the secret to healing the world?

This week we welcome returning guest and the youngest person we know, Blake Flayton, to talk about his new book: 10 Things Every Jew Should Know Before They Go to College. We talk to Blake about how to win over Gen Z (with social justice!), whether or not we should we be gatekeeping the the antisemitism discourse, and why we don’t want to see anymore Holocaust movies….for now. You can follow Blake on Substack, X and Instagram , check him out calling out campus antisemitism in The NY Times before it was cool , and of course buy the book - everyone should read it, not just the kids!

Also: * AI Therapy * Finally the world is waking up! oh wait nvm * What Birthrigtht gets wrong * You say Dual Loyalty like it’s a bad thing * Fighting Antisemitism from the left - Blake’s latest essay on Substack: * Keep your friends? * Enough with the Holocaust movies * I’d rather be 9 people’s favorite thing than 100 people’s 9th favorite thing * Are we all just talking to ourselves on Instagram?

G’day from the Land Down Under! Promise this is our first and last Australia joke in these show notes. Today we welcome the Jewish Hugh Jackman (ok, I lied), Josh Szeps to Ask A Jew! Josh is the host of U ncomfortable Conversations with Josh Szeps , and host of Szeps Live on Substack every Tuesday at 9pm (that’s normal time, not whatever they use in Australia). We loved having Josh on, even though he’s a lefty and that makes us feel unsafe. But it’s hard not to love him, and you will too. Also it doesn’t hurt that he’s kind of a hottie. Aside from a 40 minute standard chit-chat about aviation, we cover: * Do they even have months in Australia?? * We forgive you, Mel Gibson * Shabbas Gay * Why don’t people fall in Australia? * The moon looks different in Australia * How much money does Elon Musk have in Australia * Ok Josh, spill it - what happeend to the Malaysian Airline?? * Aviation Today - with Josh Szeps * Can you introduce us to the cast of Love on The Spectrum? * The Princess Bride 2 * Australia replaced its Prime Minister with a paper straw * 39 minutes in and we’re still talking about planes * Josh’s grandmoother’s amazing holocaust story (sorry we mocked her for it) * Antisemitism in Australia * WHERE’S THE JEWS?? * Oh look a bunch of Jews disagreeing about Israel * Josh is wrong about Israel and french fries This is a public episode.

Econ for Dummies 1:21:03

You demanded, we supplied! This week we are honored to have Prof. Russ Roberts join us on Ask A Jew. Russ is the host of the wildly successful podcast EconTalk (where he talks about everything from tariffs to the Opera), president of Shalem College in Jerusalem, and a fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford. He’s also the author of many books, including How Adam Smith Can Change Your Life: An Unexpected Guide to Human Nature and Happiness , and the economics-based novel, The Price of Everything. It is only natural that this internationally renowned economist and influential podcaster sit down with us to explain, like, what is economics anyway. We discuss tariffs, AI, Jerusalem, incentives, empathy, and prayer, among other things. We also dive into whether or not being a Jew and a Zionist makes sense from an economics stand point, and which careers we should all invest in when the robots come for our jobs. Make sure to check out “EconTalk: Conversations for the curious” wherever you get your podcasts, follow Russ right here on Substack Russ Roberts , and take a sneak peak at his new book currently titled The Agnostics Guide to Jewish Prayer.

Happy Valentines Day! That’s a Jewish holiday right? Well, we’re celebrating Rebbe Saint Valentine anyway.

We dive into Aleeza's advice to "date ‘em til you hate ‘em", untangle love and values, and hear why Chaya Leah’s grandfather (who was himself a matchmkaer) would force men to stare into the mirror as they described their ideal girl. The interview with Aleeza starts around 41 minutes in, but first, you have to sit through our thoughts on Trump’s plan for Gaza, travel tips for Somaliland, and a pitch for a new reality show to find the next palestinian leader. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Want to help us grow?

Just kidding, we loved talking to Richard about everything from the online right-wing “trollosphere”, antisemitism (which he gets his fair share of), Twitter politics, elite human capital, disappearing pronoun bios, and in general why everything is just more stupid now.

When you have to shoot, shoot, don't podcast 1:13:46

That feeling you have in the pit of your stomach? We’re all there. A mix of hope, fear, anger and grief. An American friend asked me if I’m happy about the hostage deal, and it was hard to use that word in this context. Though I support the deal ( like most Israelis ) and believe it is the moral choice, it makes me sick to my stomach that we even had to negotiate with these b******s, not to mention give them anything that doesn’t drop from the wing of an F-15. More about that, and our listener Zoom in a minute. In the meantime, we present you this rare, early-release, joy-to-the-ears kvetch fest with two of our favorite ladies and co-hosts of Normally , Mary Katharine Ham and Karol Markowicz . You may know these ladies from either of their frequent apperances on Fox News, CNN, the NY Post, and any other place where people pay them to say what they think about things. They each also have two great podcasts of their own, The Karol Markowicz show (that’s, uh, Karol’s) and Getting Hammered. Thanks for reading Good for the Jews! This post is public so feel free to share it. The next few weeks will be rough As of today, 33 hostages are set to be released in the phase of the deal, with each day bringing new challenges and mind-f***s from the enemy. There are total of 98 hostages in Gaza, aged 2 to 86, and there is no guarantee that we will ever move into the 2nd or 3rd phases of the deal that are meant to bring them all home. To clarify how evil Hamas is (in case you don’t get it in our podcast, we can be a little subtle sometimes), they are set to release the first group of hostages in about 12 hours, and they still haven’t told us who they are. Nor have they told us who is alive. For example, you all may have heard about little Kfir Bibas, who just celebrated his 2nd birthday as a hostage. He was kidnapped at the age of 6 months, and he and his brother Ariel (5) and mother are expected to return in this phase of the deal. We don’t know if these babies will return home in their mother’s arms or in body bags. As many have said before me including head of the Shin Bet, the deal isn’t good - but it’s the right deal. I don’t think we could live with ourselves if we didn’t push for it, not just for our 98 brothers and sisters, but for our sense of solidarity and responsibility to one another. Every Israeli feels like they have been missing a limb for the last 15 months, and we need to be able to be whole again to move on. This may sound sentimental, and not like the tough, calculated soldiers that people expect us to be. But in a sense, the reason people put on a uniform to begin with and run into the line of fire is to save strangers and protect families, and who would we be if we didn’t do that now? Good for the Jews is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. Listener Zoom Another weepy Zoom coming your way! Please join us Monday at 9pm EST for a much-needed group therapy session. Will you learn anything? Maybe, I don’t know. If you want to learn ask Dan Senor for a Zoom.

Dr. Jonathan Schanzer is the Executive Director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies , host of the FDD Morning Brief , and formerly a terror finance analyst for the US Treasury. There’s a lot to talk about this week, especially the hostages, an upcoming ceasefire deal that brings up all kinds of feelings, and of course - Houthi dance moves. Follow Jonathan on X and don’t forget to check out the Morning Brief wherever you get your podcasts. Good for the Jews is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. If you’re feeling anxious about a potential hostage deal, that’s probably the right reaction. As I write this, it seems like a hostage deal will be signed in the coming hours, with the first phase being the gradual release of 33 hostages - whose condition is unclear. We the public (and probably others close to the negotiation table too) have no idea who is dead and who is alive, how long this will take (looks like weeks at the least), whether or not it will even happen, and of course what the outcome will be. It’s like diffusing a bomb over the course of several weeks, every wrong move can create an explosion. There are more unkowns than knowns, and i’ve even gone back to edit this last paragraph in the last few minutes based on new information. We will cry tears of happiness for every life that can be pulled out of that hellhole, and tears of heartbreak for every one left behind. Anyway, to quote my friend Lishay Lavi, whose husband and father of her 2 young daughters is a hostage and is not on the first phase list: “There is no euphoria or celebration here. We fight till the very last hostage is home.” I may write a longer post about this later. Thanks for reading Good for the Jews! This post is public so feel free to share it. This is a public episode.

Brendan O’Neill is the chief political writer for Spiked and host of The Brendan O’Neill Show podcast. He writes for numerous publications, including the Daily Mail, the Spectator, the New York Post and The Australian. His latest book is After the Pogrom: 7 October, Israel and the Crisis of Civilisation (Spiked, 2024) which you should all buy immediately. Brendan attempts to explain to us what the HELL is wrong with Ireland, why he as a non-Jew had such a strong reaction to October 7 (he’s against it, just to be clear) and why the right wing variety of antisemitism is giving the left a run for it’s money. Good for the Jews is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. Merry Christmas to all our non-Jewish listeners! You’re our favorites. We hope you enjoy the day in your matching pajamas eating chestnuts and riding reindeer or whatever it is you do. We respect your tradition, though we don’t quite understand it. I think it has something to do with a Palestinian refugee fleeing Israeli tanks 2,000+ years ago and giving birth to Jesus at a checkpoint. Here’s an AI generated image of Jews celebrating Christmas. 8/10. It’s also the time of year when we love to resurface one of our favorite episodes: “ All I want for Christmas is Jews ”. In this episode Rabbi David Komerofsky “Jewsplains” how the best Christmas songs were written by Jews, and tells a beautiful story of immigration, fantasy, and the American Dream. We also have playlist of the best songs written by Jews, so enjoy! This is a public episode.
