Non-Jewish listener from London here.

Congratulations!!!!

Because I love Megan Daum I have listened from more or less the start so very happy you are still here 100 episodes later. I love listening to two talk about nothing and everything.

But the real reason I was compelled to write was the post office, and how ridiculous they

are everywhere... in my local post office there is a sign that reads "Post Office staff do

not have pens, do not cause embarrassment by asking"

Happy 100th! I've listened to every single one. You have no idea what kind of mundane chores you get me through every week and how much I appreciate you both. Best Jews EVER. <3

Regarding the white pro-Palestinian hipster chicks. I was on Broadway in the 80s, and saw this very hipster girl with a keffiyeh. And when I went to the event with Nancy Rommelman at the Brotherhood synagogue, there was a dude in a keffiyeh getting off the cross town bus one stop before us.

Which clearly dispels all the suffering in Gaza.

Regarding the post office, the one on 83td off Columbus is actually the Circle of Hell. It is the worst post office I have ever been to. And I have been to many. It is. The. WORST. The one on 94th and Columbus is quite nice, friendly. Helpful. BUT, you gotta be careful because the line builds up like that. Also, I really like my postal lady. She is lovely. I don't want her to have less work

And Chaya Leah, I LOVE your podcast with your dad. I went to McGill. Oh, that reminds me about criminal justice reform there is a logic to my thought process. Because grad school, I attended a NYC school that is known for criminal justice, and my program was very progressive and VERY pro-reform. However, a few of my classes were from other programs, and the students there dealt with, well, criminals all the time. And, sadly, one of the problems with the US is that we don't do anything half-assed, and so when we were light on crime, it was REALLU light, and when that led to a lot of crime, or at least, that was the perception, we ended up with 3 strikes laws, which sent young men to life in prison for virutally nothing. And now we're swinging back the other way. It's sad.

I know for a fact that my dad didn’t write the Kate Middleton review because he doesn’t know what podcasts are, but wow, that sounds so much like something he would write.
