The Koren Podcast
Inviting you into the conversation with leading educators, scholars, leaders, and us to discuss the issues facing Judaism today. This is not a podcast about books, but what's happening off the page. We are asking our guests just one question: Can you teach us the Torah standing on one leg - al regel ahat? Listen to hear what it is that has guided some of the leading figures of the Jewish world to where they are today and what they are thinking about as we look toward the future.
