Today's podcast is not only an important Purim-week lesson, but it's the key to winning the war and a practical message about Jewish unity. "The Toothpick Test" is something that anyone can do, especially at the family Purim table. We cordially invite Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu and opposition… [Read more...]

Menachem Herman and I got together for an evening of song and inspiration in Netanya last night.
