    Episode 4: Temporary Insanity on Fourth Down: Broncos Pain, Chiefs PTSD, and Eternal Purpose

    In this episode, Rabbi Wolfe and Rabbi Katz process one of the most painful Broncos losses in recent memory—and do it the only way they know how: through Torah. They unpack: The fourth-down decision that still hurts 🏈 Why kicking the field goal may have changed everything The idea of ruach shtus—temporary insanity—and how it explains bad decisions in football and life What Jewish wisdom teaches about foresight, humility, and leadership Why sports seasons end, but spiritual identity doesn’t How community helps us survive heartbreak (yes, even football heartbreak) Along the way, there’s Chiefs banter, Broncos grief, snow-game trauma, Patrick Mahomes PTSD, and a powerful reflection on why Judaism demands we “remember” the Exodus—not as history, but as purpose. Whether you’re a Broncos fan, a Chiefs fan, or someone just trying to make sense of disappointment, this episode reminds us: football may reset every season—but meaning doesn’t.
