Jewish educator and meme queen Shoshana Gottlieb aka @jewishmemesonly joins Tami in the studio to answer questions from a non-Jewish person. Except that non-Jewish person didn’t show up (dw, not in an anti-semitic way, she just had a last minute crisis). So Tami and Shoshana made lemons into lemonade, turning the episode into a crash course of Jewish texts with lots of Jewcy tangents. You’ll love this one.

Are you interested in issues affecting Jews in Australia, the Middle East and the world at large but a little bit ashamed that you don’t know much about it all … because you’re like … not Jewish ? Well you’ve come to the right place!

For the next few episodes, we’ll be inviting someone who isn’t Jewish, to raise all the awkward questions you might be too ashamed to ask.

First up in this week’s spin-off, Tami and co-host Elise Esther Hearst (filling in for Dash) are joined by writer & dramaturg Van Badham who asks them some questions about their experience as Jewish people and creatives. Expect to hear about Jewish mythology, arts community politics + Tami & Elise’s speciality: intergenerational trauma!
