With downloads approaching the million mark-and an archival library numbering in the thousands, the Yeshiva of Newark Podcast has been striving to continuously upgrade our content, and professionalize our audio sound, along with altering approaches in light of much appreciated listener feedback.
A niche has been carved out that resonates with many on the wide spectrum of Observant Jews.
This explains why we continually rank high in independent on-line lists of top Yeshiva podcasts.
This proud edifice is in real danger of toppling and disappearing.
We need the help of our listeners to continue to record and edit, and to promote a product that has been a balm and instructive to so many.
Just 36 dollars, a minimum donation, from a thousand of you out there will keep us afloat as a New Ark of straight, intelligent, and humorous discussion, lectures, debate and inquiry - while the destructive waters of ignorance and politics crash around us.
