What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This podcast is a good time. Dr. Shapiro shares his wide breadth of knowledge spanning halakha, Jewish thought, history, rabbinic literature in a fun and exciting way. Every podcast starts off with what is colloquially known in the yeshivas as “pre-shiur hock”—talking about random topics he was emailed about or follow up from previous lectures. Then Dr. Shapiro hits you with a torpedo of history, stories, personal anecdotes, and Torah. At once fun and engaging, and also substantive and enlightening.

Rabbi Noah Marlowe · Nov 2022

This podcast presents real history about the circumstances, personalities and outcomes within the Ashkenazic rabbinic leadership in recent centuries. Unlike some sources that present a sanitized and whitewashed view, or other sources largely focused on negatives, Professor Shapiro provides an unfiltered view of sectarian leaders managing through the political, social, and religious challenges that impacted a sizeable and influential segment of the global Jewish community
