"You Are So Not Invited to My Podcast" with Sammi Cohen [Rerelease]
We are re-releasing this iconic episode because Raye has some family shit to take care of and couldn't get a new episode done in time. Love you yentas be back next week <3
When I found out the director of YOU ARE SO NOT INVITED TO MY BAT MITZVAH is a queer, nonbinary JEW I knew I HAD to have them on Yenta. Sammi Cohen is the wildly of accomplished director of that giant Jewy Netflix movie with Adam Sandler and his whole family and the adorable high school queer rom-com Crush on Hulu. They’re also standup comedian, and truly just an all around wonderful person!
We yenta about:
- How Adam Sandler feels about they/them pronouns
- Sammi coming out as nonbinary
- Sarah Sherman and Queer Rabbis
- Is it harder to be Queer or Jewish?
- How Sammi told their mom they’re getting top surgery
- The crossover of Rabbi and Comedian
- Rosh Hashanah and Intentions for next year
