Hill Havurahdcast

Hill Havurah (www.hillhavurah.org) is an independent Jewish community in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, DC. After the Coronavirus pandemic turned the Havurah ("Fellowship") into a virtual community, Hill Havurah's Rabbi Hannah Spiro continued connecting the congregation with weekly Zoom chats with individual members of the Havurah, to talk about life, work, pandemic and spirituality. Those conversations turned into Havurahdcast episodes. They are edited and produced by Jessica Smith. Artwork by Sarah Burford, @sarahmburford on Instagram. Original music by Rabbi Hannah Spiro.

    In episode 38, Rabbi Hannah speaks with Havurah member Annie Karni, the current White House correspondent for the New York Times, about what it's like to cover the Biden White House after four years of Trump Administration drama and chaos.

    Havurahdcast #35 - Mark Sherman (Supreme Court reporter for the Associated Press)

    Before the horrific attack on the U.S. Capitol Building on January 6, Rabbi Hannah interviewed Havurah member Mark Sherman, a reporter who has been covering the Supreme Court for the last 14 years. He shares insights about his work, and a crazy story of work crashing into life: the moment he found out a Supreme Court justice passed, just minutes before his daughter was to become a bat mitzvah. This episode, while not directly connected to the events of the past week, highlights the critical work of journalists in our democracy. Rabbi Hannah ends the episode with reflections on the latest parshat. Our closing music is the amazing Aviva Chernick, performing Min Hameitzar. Enjoy!

    Havurahdcast #34 - Gregory Woodward (Home education)

    When the pandemic shut down school, Gregory Woodward took over the education of his two boys, ages 2 and 5. But even with his background as an teacher, he embraced the freedom of being at home to fashion his own curriculum. Which worked, and sometimes didn't, as he admits to Rabbi Hannah. He also started a blog, called www.droppingsomeknowledge.com. about education and parenting during the coronavirus.
