  • Learn more about my experience in the Hasidic community in my pilot podcast episode. Also a full podcast episode on TLST podcast where I talk about growing up Hasidic: The Longest Shortest Time.
  • Must read mentioned in this episode: The Prognosis by David Cayley in Literary Review Canada.
  • I also talk about David Cayley's writing on his blog on Ivan Illich & quote from him on religion and the lockdown.
  • For the philosopher Giorgio Agamben's translated work and commentary see everything by Simon Elmer like this and this.

    • PS: upon request, I am working on removing the musical background from the podcast for easier listening. Please stick around for future podcasts.
