Between this episode and the last, your favorite secular/orthodox duo spent a whole Shabbat together, filled with food, gossip, and minimal phone time. Not trying to make anyone get all religious here, but it was very nice.

In the aftermath of that holy weekend, I (Yael) traveled to Wyoming to ski and look at cowboys, while Chaya Leah took part in a human experiment in which she gets stuff injected into her body (you’re going to have to listen to the episode for more on that)

We also talk about sports (watch out

Ethan Strauss
), diet pills (watch out
Bari Weiss
) , and Bikinis in the Kotel (watch out, everyone with eyes). The photo below is part of a protest that took place last week at the Western Wall in Jerusalem. What do you think? Based or cringe? Discuss below. Say whatever you want, it’s good for our Substack engagement rates.

We spend some time this episode arguing about Orthodox Jews in Israel, but eventually unite around our belief that Joe Rogan is indeed not an antisemite. Sure, he said that Jews like money, but who doesn’t? Chaya Leah even read a book that says everyone likes money, so there. Either way Joe, we are happy to come on your show as the token Jews any time. Here’s a clip about it that we didn’t watch because it’s long.

If you have pressing questions about Judaism, Kosher loopholes, sex through sheets, or Israel, you can send them to askajewpod@gmail.com. Seriously, no question or comment is dumb or offensive. We even read an email from a guy who thought “You People” was funny.

We need some more conversation going in the comments. On that note, nothing of substance to say, just that you two are great and make me laugh!

I love the way you guys talked about diets and body stuff! I'm only figuring out how to eat well (I'm 46) and it's hard work.

I'm so inviting myself to Shabbat someday!
