Rabbis Michael Knopf and Jesse Olitzky are lifelong friends, pop culture fanboys, and lovers of all things Jewish. Join them every other week for a conversation about what’s going on in pop culture from a Jewish perspective and about Judaism through the lens of pop culture.
The new HBOMax series ‘Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty,’ from filmmaker Adam McKay (‘Don’t Look Up,’) follows Dr. Jerry Buss (played by John C.
