Mor Ezri, a Talmud nerd and bog witch joins Bashert as our first guest co-host. We chat about Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, the relationship between the two equinoxes share our favourite graveyards, and ask whether Succos or Purim is the real Jewish Halloween. Along the way we sip a cup of (lukewarm) hyssop tea, learn about the foundation stone of the Temple and trace the origins of the term scapegoat. Bashert is a monthly Jewish calendar podcast and radio show from Leeds, a UK space for anti-Zionist Jews and allies to find community. Two places to direct your tzedakah: Pafras - to find out about refugee/asylum seeker support in your area, email bshrtpod@gmail.com Good Shepherd Collective Shana Tova and a happy, sweet new year to you all.
