Customer Reviews
One of my favorite podcasts
Adam Zagoria-Moffet takes a deep dive into all kinds of aspects of Judaism and Jewish history, from the standpoint of a Masorti (Conservative) rabbi rather than the usual viewpoint of Chassidus. His talks are fascinating, well-paced, scholarly and accessible. He answers all kinds of questions I’ve had for years. I find his discussions enthralling, and far more interesting than any other podcast I’ve heard on Judaism.
