About this listen

The Shalom Friends Podcast is where Jewish texts, lore, and big ideas mix it up with pop culture, internet chaos, and current events. Hosted by Miriam Anzovin, creator of Daf Reactions and Jewish Lore Reactions, the pod brings ancient Jewish discourse into conversation with modern internet culture, delivering commentary that’s heartfelt, comedic, and occasionally unhinged — from a formerly Orthodox, now secular, millennial feminist and chronically online Jewish nerd with too many tabs open.

    Geo returns for another epic chevruta session!
