Did I say "Stay tuned" and "Hi" as a reference to NightVale? Ha! If you believe that, you probably believe in mountains too.

Marriage is...hard. At least, I've been told that, having never been married. Second in my series of stories about couples gone awry, we'll learn about what happens when husbands embarrass their partners and when couple have a bit of a language barrier.

This episode is the first of several that will have to do with marriage and the Rabbis. In this episode, a couple of stories relating to the practice of Sotah.

In this week's episode of Radio Rabbah, it's one of my absolute favorite pieces of Midrash/Aggadah about converts.

In this episode of Radio Rabbah, I share two stories, both having to do with the strangeness of forgetting, learning and, yes, slapping babies.

In this episode, we explore the strange and wonderful life of Honi the Circle-Drawer as he brings the rain and sleeps for 70 years.

Obviously this, and the following few episodes, are going to be mediocre at best. But you, dear listener, as the kind of person who bothers to read show notes, must either already know that or like me well enough that you're willing to put up with my learning curve. Thank you for that. There's a reason I'm saving my absolute favorite stories for when I know what I'm doing. It's worth sticking around (I hope).
