Up until about 7 or 8 years ago, I felt like all you would hear during December was “Merry Christmas.” That was the norm. It was in tv and movies, in schools, and in stores. Everything was focused around Christmas. I knew December meant Christmas and that’s all I was focused on. Somewhat recently, those “Merry Christmas” greetings you’d see everywhere changed to “Happy Holidays” and other religions and traditions were beginning to be recognized and included in the celebrations happening around me and that’s when I started to realize that Christmas wasn’t the only thing happening during that time. That’s where my curiosity began. I wanted to learn about the other celebrations happening that were being overlooked from my point of view. - This week, I sit down with Rabbi Jeremy Markiz to talk all about Judaism. In this episode, Jeremy and I have an amazing conversation all about Jewish Tradition. At first, I wanted this conversation to be focused on Hanukkah. I just assumed Hanukkah held the same importance that Christmas did with me. Then I realized that Hanukkah was only a small part of the story of Judaism so Jeremy and I went deep into the world of Judaism and Jewish Tradition. We talked about more than I can type in these couple of paragraph’s and it was fascinating. This whole episode is a look into a world that you might not know anything about. It’s interesting, informative, and an all around great conversation. I hope you listen and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
