Some disclaimers about this episode:
Yes we know it’s out on technically the last day of Chanukah but, you know, indulge us.
It is possibly our most x-rated recording to date, with both language and content that makes @abigailradnor wonder what Grandma Clair would make of it but then she is the grandma who discovered porn on Arron’s computer whe...
Today we are airing our interview with Dr Dave Rich, leading antisemitism expert and CST’s director of policy.
We originally recorded this episode back in September, before the horrific attack on Heaton Park in Manchester on Yom Kippur, which led to the tragic deaths of Adrian Daulby and Melvin Kravitz.
It was due to go out the following week and we decided it wasn’t the right time to air that episode, and so recorded something on ou...

Glossary:
Tishrei - the first month of the Jewish new year.
Challah - the nice plaited Jewish bread we’re kinda famous for
Round challah - over Jewish new year we switch up the shape of the challah - we like to spice things up like that - and have round ones, symbolising the cycle a...
In much of this episode we have explained a lot of the terms and traditions in the show itself ( it’s almost like we’ve got better at this!) But here a few bits that may need a little explanation:
Kuchen - German and Yiddish for cake. Grandma Shirely baked a cinnamon version and a one with raisins that had to be served with a shmear of butter, both were equally legendary.
Alte kaker - an elderly person, they wouldn't take...

Rishonim - a two week long Jewish summer camp organised by the Jewish, zionist, socialist youth movement Habonim Dror, the summer after you finish Year 9. So many memories. Too many hormones.
Israel tour - the month long trip to Israel taken by post 16 year olds from all over the Jewish disapora, organised b...
King Antiochus - the baddy in the Channukah story. The Syrian-Greek king who took a real dislike to Jews around 168 BCE. Definitely mean.
King Pharoah - the baddy in the Passover story. King of Ancient Egypt who made Jews his slaves. Also pretty mean.
Shabbat Ima - ‘Shabbat mother’ meaning you get to play the ‘mum’ role in this very Jewish game of mums and dads.
Shabbat Abba - ‘Shabbat father’ meaning you get to play the ‘dad’ role in...
