In episode 7 We start off with deep conversation regarding food, flavor building and the epitome of the greatest sandwich ever! We then veer off into the topic of free choice and the discussion of fear vs. awe or Godliness. Is politics and news noise? What kind of changes are we are making to filter out some of that noise. We end with moment that make us absolutely rageful, and moments that bring us to vulnurability, where time stops as we realize what really is the most important. Lot's of laughter was had during the recording of this episode!

In episode 6 we begin with sharing about our oldest son's Bar Mitzva and a short clip from Melech's moving speech. In this episode we changed things up a bit and focused on one general theme: The intricacies of family, raising teens and soon to be teens and our commitment to trying our best to do it right. We hope you enjoy this deeply personal episode!

We are Back! In episode 5 we recap the last few months where we didn't produce any podcasts. A lot has happened! We researched and built our own pizza oven, we welcomed refugees from war torn Ukraine, and got back to basics about the fundamentals needed for raising kids with super brain abilities. Of course we ended with a discussion about Marriage where we brought the point back to " If you want it, just do it!". We hope you enjoy!! xxx Melech and Chaya
