True Jew

by Julia and Samuel Eisen-Meyers

True Jew is a podcast about what it means to be Jewish in real life: messy, loud, loving, and complicated. Hosted by us—siblings Julia and Samuel Eisen-Meyers—this show captures conversations the way they actually happen: at family dinners, late at night, in moments of tension, tenderness, and truth. We talk about identity, grief, joy, faith, anger, history, belonging, and what it means to stand for other people’s humanity. This is a home for Jews who are questioning inherited narratives, reconnecting with tradition on their own terms, and imagining something different. It’s also for anyone who believes that love, dignity, and collective liberation are not abstract ideals, but daily practices. Each episode features original music and sound design by Samuel, layered with Julia’s commentary, candid dialogue, and voices from our wider community. You’ll hear disagreement without dismissal, conviction without cruelty, and intimacy without performance. Sometimes it’s funny. Sometimes it’s heavy. Always, it’s real. We’re family. We’re friends. We argue, we listen, and we keep the door open. Get in touch: jewforpalestine@proton.me
