S1:E6- Pod Merch

6 May 2025

With gloomy weather, a Celtics loss, and a Chai Heat loss weighing heavily on us, we needed a pod to lift the mood this week… and we did it. In this week’s episode we’ve got our Ordering Era in full bloom, bricks on the community pathway selling like hotcakes, a big Shabbat on tap both Friday night and Saturday, a big birthday celebration around the corner, and we’ve got pickleball in the Chickami Dome! Dan hands out some trivia about the number of verses, words, and letters in the Torah, John drops some knowledge about metal lathes and talks about getting a new dog, and we get ready to ready Holocaust survivor Kati Preston next Wednesday. Also: Logan preps for a visitor from France, Marissa gets ready for a week off, and a Brandeis graduation is around the corner for Dan.

Stick around for this week’s bonus track, which channels the spring rain here into a tune about a rainy day on Mount Gilboa- which Dan hiked on a muddy April morning a few years ago.
