Customer Reviews
Season one is a SUPER accessible intro to the Mishnah
I am so thankful I found this podcast. I am considering converting to Judaism and didn’t understand the Mishnah at all before listening. I am particularly grateful that this is led by women, because it makes me feel very welcome. I hope y’all do future seasons on Talmud and the Tanakh, or any other topics. Thank you!!!
