The Best Episode in ‘The History of the World: Part II’

It finally happened! The sequel to Mel Brooks’ 1981 classic ‘History of the World: Part I’ that nearly every Jew of a certain age has been waiting for is here at last. Was it worth the wait? Is it the greatest sequel in ‘The History of the World: Part II’? Or is it more of an auto de fe (something Brooks oughtn’t have done, but he did anyway)? Rabbis Knopf and Olitzky have thoughts! Join us as we dig deep into ‘The History of the World: Part II’, the legacy of Mel Brooks, and the Torah of Jewish humor, aging gracefully, evolving over time, and passing on traditions from generation to generation.

Rabbis Michael Knopf and Jesse Olitzky are lifelong friends, pop culture fanboys, and lovers of all things Jewish. Join them every other week for a conversation about what’s going on in pop culture from a Jewish perspective and about Judaism through the lens of pop culture.

Amen Corner Season 7, Episode 25: The Disagreement Episode, or Maybe It’s NOT

This week, Brad and Steve talk about some of the things that they actually don’t agree on. There’s not a lot but they did manage to come up with something: Diversity Equity and Inclusion, also known as DEI, and college admissions. The guys talk about their experiences with their respective children’s admissions processes and find that while there are some things they do agree on, in the end, they have different attitudes and approaches to this issue. Happy Passover, Happy Easter, Ramadan Kareem, and Happy listening!
