The Tucker Carlson situation has everyone asking the same question: when a friend goes off the deep end morally, do you stay loyal or cut them loose? We dig into this through a Jewish lens, from Talmudic principles to modern media ethics, and get surprisingly personal about struggles with Chabad identity and navigating between Orthodox and liberal Jewish worlds. Also in this episode:
Why there are 20 Christian Bible study groups on one college campusThe Gene Wilder/Mel Brooks origin storyJoe Rogan's hilariously wrong guess about Jewish demographicsA brutally honest discussion about how we justify breaking our own values (yes, including the hypothetical In-N-Out burger scenario).
