Episode #24 ALICE ZASLAVSKY Will Not "yuck Your Yum" Ashamed To Admit podcast

51:55

As Sydney celebrates its annual Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras festival, Dash and Tami speak with groundbreaking Jewish community activist and elder Dawn Cohen, co-founder of Dayenu Jewish LGBTQ+. Born and raised in apartheid South Africa, Dawn spent decades campaigning – ultimately successfully – for the acceptance of LGBTQ+ Jews in Sydney's Jewish community, standing firm against threats and intimidation from homophobic opponents. Now, in the months since October 7th, she finds herself confronting a different form of prejudice as antisemitism and anti-Israel sentiment surge within her LGBTQ+ community.

With women's reproductive rights in the United States looking more precarious in the wake of the Trump re-election, Tami and Dash explore Orthodoxy's stance on abortion, family planning, and IVF. Who better to turn to than Melbourne lawyer, Orthodox feminist, an ordained rabbi and mother of four (and soon to be five) Nomi Kaltmann. In this episode, Nomi introduces us to two seminal rabbinic figures Rav Moshe Feinstein and Rabbi Eliezer Waldenberg, and she takes us on a journey through the intersection of Jewish law, modern technology, and women’s autonomy. In doing so, Nomi challenges cultural taboos and reveals the surprisingly nuanced and pragmatic approaches that Orthodoxy and the law in Israel has taken to reproduction.

Episode #25 Celebrating Mizrahi music, food, and heritage with Shai Shriki 49:22

For too long, the stories and culture of Mizrahi Jews – Jews from the Middle East, North Africa and Asia – have been unrecognised and unrepresented in Australia's Jewish community. Yet Mizrahi music, food, and culture have enriched Jewish traditions and cultural life for generations, weaving vibrant threads into the tapestry of Jewish identity – in Israel, Australia and Jewish communities worldwide. In a Mizrahi Heritage Month special , Tami and Dash meet Shai Shriki, a Jewish-Moroccan musician born in Israel who lives in the Northern Rivers of NSW, playing music and crafting the traditional instruments of his Mizrahi ancestors.
