A Rabbi and a Lawyer

Walk into a bar Podcast

Relatively well informed and irreverent musings on religion, news, and society. Grab a seat and join old friends, Rabbi Asher Lopatin and his former synagogue president, John Geiringer. Imagine sharing a drink with two news junkies who keep an open mind, challenge the status quo, and love discussing the comedy, tragedy, absurdity, and reality of the Jewish experience. Throughout their discussions, John will ask Asher provocative questions that congregants wish they could ask their rabbis.

Podcast Host(s)

We’re Back Baby!

We discuss the attacks on Iran and Asher monitors shabbat events in a halachically permissible manner.  John describes whether Congress should declare war formally (last time against Romania?) and Asher gives parallels to Purim.  We have AI on our minds as John hopes that it will not replace us.  Asher challenges us to consider if we are here “for such a time as this” and encourages us to be tough Jews, not that weakling in the anti-antisemitism commercial.
