Episode Details

We conclude our Hanukkah podcast series, Lies & Lessons, with Rabbi Shira Stutman from Sixth & I in Washington D.C.  In this conversation, Rabbi Lizzi and Rabbi Shira discuss why many Jews have a love-hate relationship to the widely celebrated, and marketed, holiday of Hanukkah. Tune in for a conversation that addresses the complicated historical roots of the holiday, while offering a reminder to grab ahold of joy and the hopeful spirit of the season.
