In this special holiday episode, IADC Speaks Host Rebecca Weinstein Bacon (Bartlit Beck) sits down with Dan Reisler (Aviva Trial Lawyers), Sheila Schiffman (Continental Automotive), and Scott Wilkov (Tucker Ellis) for a lively, heartfelt look at the magic of Chanukah. They share what the holiday means to their families – from the story behind the celebration to the foods sizzling in oil (latkes, sufganiyot, and brisket) to the customs passed through generations.
Together, they break down traditions old and new: lighting the menorah, giving gifts across eight nights, spinning dreidels, and more.
When Rebecca asks what Chanukah means to them, they all return to one word: light — light that honors history, brings people together, celebrates miracles, and carries a little bit of magic into the winter season.
