    “Religion is a kink” with Rabbi Iggy

    Rabbi Iggy is tattooed, gay, obsessed with Talmud, and the rabbinic voice behind Sinners Shabbat in NYC and Beit T'shuvah in LA (an addiction treatment center and spiritual community). He's a rabbi to a million celebrities, and most importantly, he was Raye's wedding rabbi! So he's a real Yenta VIP. This is an amazing Jewish conversaion about tension, pleasure, discipline, and belonging. I know, gross. We Yenta about: - Religion as kink - Coldplay on Yom Kippur - Spiritual discipline - Cringe as a spiritual warning sign - Gay life in yeshiva ---------------------------------- Sponsored by the Mandel Cultural Leadership Program: https://mandelinstitute.org/programs/cultural-leadership/cultural-leadership-application-faq/ Announcement!
