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.
Ever since the superhero team-up film Justice League, released under a cloud of tragedy and studio intrigue, bombed with critics and at the box office, director Zack Snyder’s (sometimes abusive) fans have been clamoring for Warner Bros. to release the “Snyder Cut,” the filmmaker’s fabled unadulterated vision for the movie. Four years and a reported $70 million later, the Snyder Cut has dropped, and the rabbis have…a lot of thoughts. Join them, along with very special guest Henry Bernstein (Jewish educator, Superman’s biggest fan, and co-host of the “Funny, They Don’t Look Jewish” podcast), as they talk all about this artistic and commercial curiosity, considering what — if anything — is Jewish about all of this.
