EP 12 "L’Shana Tova, From Mt Doom" - a podcast by David Goldsmith

This week we start inexplicably from the fiery pits of Mordor for a discussion of who and what is Bad for the Jews, leading to a tribute to the late great Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (good). Some (cribbed) words of wisdom from Jon Lovett on what might be done in the aftermath of her passing. A This Week In Gaggery that takes us from the bowels (sorry) of Big Brother to the horrors of ICE detention centers shipping immigrant women to receive unnecessary hysterectomies, to heroic Republicans (seriously) telling the truth of their time in the current administration. “I’m giving you pop culture, but I’m giving you life!” exclaims Bry, sure to be a slogan for future episodes of the pod. After a Call Out/Call In discussion of the Black Excellence spectrum swings between Watchmen and Lovecraft Country, a plug for the brilliant new all-female recording of Jesus Christ Superstar, “She Is Risen,” (featuring Bry! and available on iTunes), before bringing everything back home to the Shire (you won’t want to miss the audio effects, honey). Taste the Swirl, Hobbits!
