Rabbis Jeffrey and Josh explore the current state of Conservative Judaism. Rabbi Matt is out this week but will be back for the next episode. Jeffrey and Josh are both Reform Jewish rabbis who took the leap into Conservative Jewish congregations. The two of them discuss the simiilarities and differences between Reform and Conservative Judaism and reflect on the current state of the Conservative Jewish movement. Along the way they reflect on the meaning of Jewish law and ritual and its significance in contemporary Jewish life and where things might be headed

*Note: The audio of Rabbi Josh's voice is terrible in the first part of the conversation. Our apologies!

Her Memory for Blessing? Peace Upon Him? Blessed is the True Judge? We explore what these distinctly Jewish phrases mean and whether we should use them at all. A delightful conversation about death in this joint episode of Weird Being Jewish and Unveiling Death.

The three Jewish amigos sit down and try to make sense of what Judaism and Jewish values have to say about Trump's Gaza "plan." We discuss the political angle but as usual also turn to Jewish teachings and Jewish tradition to see if we can get insight into what's on the mind of so many Jewish Americans right now.

Rabbis Reimer, Weill and Rose take on the Trumpian turn in the country and whether Jewish people have a paritcular obligation to speak out as Jews about what's happening. They also touch on collective responsibility and - hey, who gets to say who's right and wrong anyway? Raising more questions than answers these three rabbi-friends ponder what's most heavily on all of our minds, and find meaning in the conversation. Join us!

Rabbi Matt Reimer, along with Rabbis Jeffrey Weil and Josh Rose, discusses the intersections of the Torah portion Parshat Noach and the contemporary world, touching upon the election and its implications [note: this was recorded last week, BEFORE the election]. They inquire about post-flood life, paralleling it with the uncertainties and potential of the present day. The conversation explores themes of hope, responsibility, and the challenges of maintaining civility and moral judgment in a complex, divided world. Take a listen!

Rabbis Reimer, Rose and Weill join in a conversation about Israel on the one year anniversary of the October 7th attacks.
