Ninety-Eight: The Golem - Mudman, There's No Need To Feel Down!


Listen Later

This week we dive back into one of Sam's favorite subjects, Jewish mysticism, by way of one of its most fascinating and unique phenomena, The Golem. The clay man, who serves as the supernatural protector of the downtrodden Jews throughout the Diaspora, has long captivated the imagination of the public.

By the time we're done, we cover everything from Quentin Tarantino to King David. We hope you'll enjoy!
