  • Shabbat and the Radical Idea of Rest (#1 Staff Pick)

    Shabbat and the Radical Idea of Rest (#1 Staff Pick)
    Jan 21 2026
    This week, we wrap up our Staff Pick countdown with our #1 episode of the year. What Is Shabbat—Really? goes beyond the long list of “don’ts” to uncover the deeper joy and purpose of the Jewish Sabbath. Grounded in Genesis, Exodus, and the writings of Abraham Joshua Heschel and Joseph B. Soloveitchik, Mijal and Noam explore Shabbat as a 25-hour “palace in time”—a weekly digital detox, spiritual reset, and celebration of meaning. We’re proud to be collaborating with Sefaria and The Simchat Torah Challenge, on this episode along with all the other episodes of our “In the Beginning” mini-series.

    You Think You Know Chabad? Think Again — With Rabbi YY Jacobson (#2 Staff Pick)

    What does Chabad have to offer a fractured world in 2025?

Chosen by our staff as the #2 top episode of the year and part of our countdown to the #1 Staff Pick, this conversation leans into Chabad’s worldview, its nuanced relationship with Zionism, and its bold response to antisemitism.

  • What it Means to be Jewish: A Conversation with Jonah Platt (#3 Staff Pick)

    What it Means to be Jewish: A Conversation with Jonah Platt (#3 Staff Pick)
    Jan 7 2026
    Noam revisits his conversation with actor, Jewish advocate and fellow podcast host, Jonah Platt. In the episode, voted the #3 staff pick, Noam and Jonah sit down in LA to talk about identity, Israel, Hollywood, and why October 7 turned him into what he calls an “October 8th activist.” Jonah reflects on his Jewish upbringing, the rising fear around Jewish identity, and why he now proudly wears a Magen David. They dig into what Hollywood gets right (and wrong) about Jewish stories, why so few celebrities speak up for Israel, and how to navigate tough conversations using Jonah’s “Five C’s.” Jonah Platt is the host of Being Jewish with Jonah Platt.
