Hello - SURVEY. Fill out the SURVEY. Last one to fill out the SURVEY is an antisemite. Plus you have a chance to win Chaya Leah’s baked goods, made especially for you! If you already filled it out, you are our favorite! If you are the listeners from Japan, Barbados, Scotland or Pakistan - email us! We want to get to know you (you can all email us actually. It is called Ask A Jew you know….).

Also, this just in - Mark your calendars for Monday, June 1st at 6pm!! Come have a drink with some other AJJers (Jew-pies?) and meet your two favorite Jewish podcasters (not Ezra Klein and Dan Senor) at:
Spring Lounge
48 Spring St, New York, NY 10012
Comment if you plan to attend! Special guests may make an appearance…
Did you know you can now watch this episode (and others) on YouTube? Uploading shortly, here’s Gad Saad in the meantime:
Now that logistics are out of the way - we gathered around the microphone last night to discuss Chaya Leah’s favorite holiday, ShavuoT, and her two least favorite things in the world: antizionist Jews and Eurovision. We also have some TV and book recommendations for you, discuss Mayor Mamdani’s stupid party, and send some special love to Albania.
Turns out I was partially right about our Albanian brethren, I said they didn’t lose a single Jew during the holocaust, turns out they actually GAINED Jews. You should use this super fun fact to impress your Albanian doormen in New York, they are very proud of it (rightfully so), as well as their impeccable Eurovision voting history (doormen may not care about that). Shout out to my dad Ronnie for this information! And thank you Grok for agreeing to generate this beautiful images that the other AI’s found too offensive:
Some links:
J-Street mamdani Substack, what do you think?
Great book recommendation following our shipping recommendation - thank you to whoever suggested it!
ICYMI - my Eurovision recap (you don’t need to enjoy or like or even know what Eurovision is to read)
Some listeners suggested a book club, but we all know books are for nerds. How about we all pick a season of 90 Day Fiance and watch together?? Meisha and Nicola — a gorgeous American and painfully average Israeli united by their love of Jesus — agree! (Season 6)
See you in NYC June 1st!!
(Did we mention there is a survey?)
