It's Ok We're Jewish!Aug 21, 2023
No Saturday Morning Cartoons
Eliezer and Solly go on a journey to their childhoods being raised with a silver spoon in their mouths and having learned everything about the facts of life from TV (except TGIF and Saturday morning cartoons). It is no small wonder they turned out as well as they did! What you talkin' about Willis? If you are feeling lucky Punky, then listen now!
Jews & Sports
Eliezer and Solly finally talk about something they really know about; SPORTS!!!!! From Soccer to Ping Pong, they get into it like an attacking midfielder and a right winger on the pitch. Enjoy!
Chol HaMoed Episode
Eliezer and Solly had so much fun during Chol HaMoed that it took a while to produce this episode, but they promise the wait is worth it! From trips, to Dr. Browns, hard-boiled eggs and everything in between! We hope you all had a wonderful Pesach!
Bubbles not Bubbies
Eliezer and Solly produced this once-in-a-lifetime, at risk of life and limb, hard-hitting expose of the effervescence that powers so much of our Jewish life; SODA! If you think they can't talk about Soda and Judaism for an entire episode, you would be wrong! From a heated Coke vs. Pepsi debate, what Sodas make your mother proud, the bubbles that defined them growing up, and so much more! Enjoy!
Meal Train Episode
Eliezer and Solly take a deep dive into a beautiful Mitzvah that many Jewish communities do for each other; The Meal Train! It represents the best of a community where we come together to help someone in need with what we do best.....FOOD! So get on board and enjoy this episode.
The Kiddush Episode
Eliezer and Solly take us down the long line to the Shul Kiddush! This episode is filled with delicious treats, pet peeves, the calling out of the herring industry and much more! So sit back, put some kugel in your cholent and enjoy!
Synagogue Citizens
Eliezer and Solly return to one of their favorite places; The Synagogue! This time they take a deep dive into the people who make the Synagogues what they are, from the Candy Man to the Sneezer!

The Jews Are Back!
Eliezer and Solly took a very extended Yeshivah break, but they are back to continue season two! There are dad jokes, Jewish talk and of course singing. Lots and lots of singing. In this episode, they talk about what they have been up to and all the great things coming up! Enjoy!
