Episode 24: "Humans Drop the Ball (Bereishit 6-8)"

Saison 1 · Épisode 24

lundi 6 octobre 2025 • Durée 49:20

Humans get all of the chances in the world, and Joy and Sylia count the ways. But, alas, Hashem decides they all need to go and Noah is the blank slate. After a long hiatus, they're finally back to (almost) finish up the first book of the Torah!

"Episode 23: Cain on the Loose! (Bereshit 4-5)"

Saison 1 · Épisode 23

jeudi 14 novembre 2024 • Durée 48:55

Get a riveting play-by-play of the world's first murder! Sylia and Joy dissect Cain's anger problems and lack of perspective. Sylia controvercially presents Cain as a sympathetic figure and Joy is intrigued but not super convinced.

More dramatic than Abel's killing is the story of Cain's death...you don't want to miss this absurd account!

Episode 22: Guy Meets Girl. Girl Meets Snake (Bereshit 3)

Saison 1 · Épisode 22

mardi 29 octobre 2024 • Durée 54:37

They're BACK! Joy and Sylia return to tackle the ORIGINAL SIN (SIN...Sin...sin), though Joy does scandalously suggest that maybe Paradaise was meant to be lost all along! Punishments are given out. Humanity and snakes become mortal enemies. Adam might sheepishly have been standing by Chava's side as she tasted the forbidden fruit. It's just a good time all around. Join us for episode 22, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Thank you to the fans who urged us to continue on this journey!

Adam is Lonely No More (or Perpetually Lonely?) Bereshit 2

Saison 1 · Épisode 21

jeudi 23 mai 2024 • Durée 34:26

Shoutout to Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik for his ingenius interpretation of Bereshit 1 and 2! In this week's episode, Joy and Sylia continue with their philosophical ponderings about the implications of the two contradicting creation stories.

They also tackle the topic of shabbat and the forbidden trees, and to lead us up to the juiceier sides of Adam and Eve.

Episode 20: "In the Beginning... (Finally)" Bereshit 1

Saison 1 · Épisode 20

vendredi 12 avril 2024 • Durée 01:02:27

Joy and Sylia finally overcome their imposter syndrome and begin to tackle one of the toughest parts of the Torah: CREATION (cue echo.)

In this episode, the duo try on many hats: physicists, anthropologists, marine biologists, and most importantly, Torah commentators. Because it's their Torah, too!

Episode 19: "The End: Blessings, Curses, Destinies" (Bereshit 49-50)

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

lundi 11 mars 2024 • Durée 01:02:43

This episode is dedicated to the refuah shlema of Nava ben Irit, and to the Oketz Unit for their tireless and selfless service to Eretz Yisrael! In this episode, Joy and Sylia discuss what it is that Yaakov is passing onto the generations of Am Yisrael to come. He individualized and differentiates based on the child's weaknesses, strengths, and areas of improvement (so progressive!) They also reveal the REAL reason they didn't start with the first chapter of Bereshit!

"The Values of Yisrael" (Bereshit 47-48)

Saison 1 · Épisode 18

jeudi 15 février 2024 • Durée 54:36

Sylia and Joy get serious for once and really dig into the meat of what makes us the children of Yisrael.

Is it our thing for shepherds?

Is it our strange connection with the land of Canaan?

Is it our disregard for birth order?

Is it our ability to procreate and fill the land in whatever environment we find ourselves in? Decide with us!

PLUS, find out if you have joined the ranks of the 10/7 conservatievs!

"The Big Family Reunion" (Bereshit 44-46)

dimanche 11 février 2024 • Durée 38:33

In this episode, Joy and Sylia feel the feels as Yosef reveals himself to his brothers, and finally reunites with his father, Yaakob. They also discover that not all Pharaohs are created the same (this one happens to be really adorable), and Israelites begin to fulfill the prophecy from Brit ben HaBetarim.

PLUS, Joy's secret identity is revealed!

"The Day of Reckoning: Yosef Messes with his Brothers" (Bereshit 42-43)

Saison 1 · Épisode 16

vendredi 2 février 2024 • Durée 35:14

Yosef navigates a strange and unexpected reunion with his brothers, who are unaware that the vizier before them is the very brother they (maybe?) sold to strangers and left to die. He messes with their heads a little bit, though Joy and Sylia disagree to what extent these games are laced with revenge. Okay, fine, he does cry a lot. So maybe he's not so bad after all.

PLUS, Yaakov learns absolutely NOTHING at all about the consequences of favoring one son over all the others.

"Episode 15: From Rags to Riches (Bereshit 41)

Saison 1 · Épisode 17

mercredi 17 janvier 2024 • Durée 36:11

Pharaoh wakes up from his Inception-worthy dream and he needs an interpretation STAT. Yosef does some God-sanctioned fortunetelling and makes his way to a position as the right-hand man of the Pharaoh (but not before a good bath and shave session.)

Joy and Sylia discuss how Yosef's Jewish identity is essential to his success in Egypt, and how surprisingly receptive this Pharaoh is to God's unlikely prophet!
