Rocking and Rolling

This week on Unorthodox, we’re getting jiggy with it. Our Jewish guest is Lenny Solomon, frontman of the Jewish rock band Shlock Rock.

Our Gentile of the Week is professor and writer Devoney Looser, who teaches us about Jane Austen and roller derby, and the surprising ways in which these two subjects intersect.

Shondas and Stereotypes: Jewish Sports Team Owners

This series has so far focused on the bright spots, the moments that Jewish athletes and storylines have made us proud. But not all stories about Jews in sports are the ones we want splashed in the headlines. On this episode, we confront an uncomfortable subject: Jewish team owners behaving badly. We explore the concept of shondas, and how we feel as Jews when high profile Members of the Tribe embarrass us or bring us shame. . Episode 5 features interviews with Dave McKenna, the former Washington City Paper journalist who went up against Dan Snyder, ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, who has reported extensively about Don Sterling’s missteps, sports biographer Jane Leavy, reporter Dave Zirin, and baseball writer Jake Mintz. Previous episodes: The Halftime Show Ep. 4: Jewish Sports Nerds and Their Path to the Promised Land Ep. 3: Forty Years in the Desert: Jews and the New York Mets Ep. 2: Reevaluating ‘Jewish Jordan’ Tamir Goodman Ep. 1: Genesis: Sandy Koufax as Model Minority Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

A whirlwind week in Israel

A bold rescue operation Nuseirat; Benny Gantz quits the war time coalition; a UN Security Council resolution for a ceasefire and a hostage deal; steep escalation between Hezbollah and Israel in the north, and – if all this is not enough – a looming crisis for the coalition over drafting of ultra-orthodox men to the IDF. Gadi and Mike untangle these strands and conclude that for now Netanyahu's coalition is not on the verge of collapse, despite the Biden administration's best efforts.

The Postgame Show

Over the course of this series, host Meredith Shiner has explored how Jewish culture, American culture, and sports culture intersect.

Netanyahu vs. the Brass

Prime Minister Netanyahu issued a confrontational statement accusing his intelligence services of deliberately withholding information from him. It seems clear by now that the "leak scandal" is turning into a real internal crisis. Since Mike was visiting Tel Aviv, we recorded this one on the fly, in Gadi's home.
