  • Producing Miracles: The Gershy Moskowits Story
    2025/07/17

    This week on None of Your Business, we sit down with Gershy Moskowits, a beloved Jewish music producer and event mastermind whose life took a miraculous turn.

    You may know Gershy for his work behind some of the biggest names in Hasidic music and his role in organizing massive events like the Siyum HaShas at MetLife Stadium. But what you don’t know is the incredible story of how his years of selfless acts — visiting hospitals, organizing chesed events, and bringing joy to others — came full circle when he needed help the most.

    🩺 Diagnosed with kidney failure and facing months of grueling dialysis, Gershy found himself in need of a transplant — and received the ultimate gift: a kidney from the brother of a young girl he had helped years earlier through his acts of kindness.

    🎶 This episode blends music, mitzvot, and miracles in one unforgettable story of faith, resilience, and the unseen power of kindness.

    If you’ve ever doubted that good deeds come back around, this conversation will restore your belief in divine timing.

    🔊 Tune in for:

    • What it really takes to produce major Jewish music events
    • The behind-the-scenes story of the 93,000-person Siyum HaShas
    • The emotional journey of illness, recovery, and unexpected redemption
    • Why acts of kindness are never wasted — even decades later

  • Is Kosher Certification Big Business—or a Community Trust?
    2025/06/22

    Rabbi Ari Senter joins the None of Your Business podcast to unpack one of the most misunderstood industries in the world—kosher certification. As Executive Director of the Kof-K, one of the most prominent kosher agencies in the world, Rabbi Senter walks us through how this highly structured system actually operates, what companies like Unilever and Pepsi are really looking for, and why kosher symbols carry both economic weight and religious significance.

    In this episode, Rabbi Senter explains the origins of his family-run organization, his personal hesitations about taking on the rabbinate, and the emotional toll of leading a community while managing a complex global operation. He doesn’t shy away from controversial topics—addressing the accusation that kashrus is a mafia, explaining the ethics behind pricing, and revealing how Kof-K handled the Ben & Jerry’s political firestorm over Israel.

    This conversation is thoughtful, surprising, and deeply human. Whether you keep kosher or not, it’s a rare chance to hear the real story from someone who lives at the intersection of faith, business, and leadership.
