First Drafts: Ep. 395

This week on Unorthodox, we’re trading Shia LaBeouf for Alanis Morrisette. 

Our Jewish guest is comedian and podcaster Moshe Kasher, who tells us about his new book, Subculture Vulture: A Memoir in Six Scenes—especially the Jewish stuff. 

We’re also sharing another story from our December trip to Israel, about Blend.ar, a nonprofit Arabic and Hebrew-language program that connects Jewish and Arab Israelis. 

Listen to the Testimonies Archive for more eyewitness audio accounts from Israel, and read Tablet’s coverage here. 

Write to us at unorthodox@tabletmag.com, or leave a voicemail on our listener line: (914) 570-4869.
