We hope you're as excited as we are for this conversation with Joey Ramona, iconic Toronto based punk rock tattooer, visual artist, and a self-described “weird Jewish punk guy.”

We talk with Joey about being an anti-zionist Jewish tattooer, about how tattoos can help people deepen their connection to Judaism, about the concept of doikayt and researching ashkenazi tradition, about mutual aid and community organizing, and so much more! If you want to book an appointment with Joey, reach out to them at [email protected]⁠

We feel so lucky that we get to have incredible conversations with people we admire so much <3
