Won't You Be My Rabbi?

by The CJN Podcast Network

What's the difference between Reform and Conservative Judaism? Why are there so many different variations within modern Orthodoxy? And what are the Reconstructionists reconstructing, anyway? Comedian Laura Leibow doesn't have these answers—but she wants to find out. In this new miniseries by The CJN Podcast Network, she speaks with rabbis across the country (and across denominations) to try and make sense of the Jewish religious landscape... and where she fits into it all.
