Rabbis Michael Knopf and Jesse Olitzky are lifelong friends, pop culture fanboys, and lovers of all things Jewish. Join them every other week for a conversation about what’s going on in pop culture from a Jewish perspective and about Judaism through the lens of pop culture.
The new Hulu series Taste the Nation, starring Top Chef’s Padma Lakshmi, is as much a series about the immigrant experience in America (and an ode to all immigrants have contributed to our culture) as it as a series about American food. Join Rabbis Knopf and Olitzky as they discuss immigration, assimilation, the American dream, the role of food in Jewish tradition, and whether there is such a thing as “Jewish food.”
