The Omer, baby. Not a holiday, you say? Correct. But an unmissable aspect of the Jewish calendar, and maybe, as we discuss, the key to bringing out the "fuck you" that lies at the heart of having our own Jewish map of time. This is the in-between time, the time of growth, waiting, anticipating, grieving, counting.

Our questions:

1. Are we going away from, or are we going towards?

2. Why is this counting personal?

3. Is Zionism a spiritual problem or a political one?

4. Is the Omer boring?
