    S1E14: Parashat Bully

    Anything can be a milkshake, or a thinly-veiled song trashing your student, or a problematic set of new All-American Men-Only Mahjong rules, or a name for The Lord, or a weird translation of Josh. Just breathe. This is a good episode with a lot of spoken and unspoken MEANING and POWER and THE OPPOSITE OF HATE.

    S1E13: Parashat Valentine's Day

    ONE NIGHT ONLY. One. Except sometimes two. Count 'em! This week we discuss carving out time.

    S1E12: Parashat The Landlord

    Loneliness for Remy, HR violations for Schmidt, and JUSTICE FOR JULIA. Elul the month, Shofar the ram horn, and self-reflective mindfulness. Quick question—are people inherently good or bad? No pressure, but the Yetzer HaRa and Yetzer HaTov really want to know, and one of them can do a handstand. He's got a point.

    S1E11: Parashat Jess & Julia

    What's makes a girly girl? Whose damp towel is this? And why might one hum wordlessly while handwashing? Ah HECKscher, let's LABEL some answers.

    S1E10: Parashat Story of the 50

    Still on the Make Hanukkah Golden soapbox, but that's besides the points—this week we have a sacrificial cult waving dinosaur red flags, eating Peeps from Beets and Jelly Fruit Slices, doing the Vulcan salute, smelling goats, and rethinking reinventing oneself.

    S1E9: Parashat The 23rd

    Now wait, don't melt down that menorah—or hanukkiah—too fast with your golden olive oil (definitely in a glass bottle). This week the Maccabees are bringing down the hammer on the Seleucid Empire and John Hanukkah. Step on your soapbox as we talk about holiday branding, diversity, assimilation, light vs darkness, and gold... GOLD.

    S1E8: Parashat Bad in Bed

    "Who is Susan Sarandon?" he said in his best Jimmy Stewart voice. Justin long, still here and going strong. A haircut that's a real ear-cutter. The Kuleshov Effect. Baby showers vs The Evil Eye. And performing feminininityity.

    S1E7: Parashat Bells

    A montage derash about the house of gooseBUMPS, meats, high standards, Sergei Eisenstein, The Talmud, Beit Shammai vs Beit Hillel, and Elu V'Elu—but also SIKE, kinda.
