Havdalah Happy Hour (May 30, 2026)

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2282686/fan_mail/new] This week’s season‑finale episode is a full blast of fun as Ben Kreshtool, Jill Suffel, and Cantor Emily Ellentuck go all‑in on the 90s with a hilarious round of 90s trivia pictionary. Did you guess any of the answers correctly? We also recapped an incredible Jewish Heritage Night at the Orioles game — seeing tons of familiar faces, enjoying amazing kosher food with so many options, taking in the fireworks, and of course admiring another win! And because we love a good challenge, we’re leaving you with one more: Comment below if you know who WROTE the song “Manic Monday,” sung by The Bangles. As always, we wrapped with our signature blessing of the week and shonda of the week, closing out the season with warmth, laughter, and gratitude. Thank you to all our listeners for an amazing season of Havdalah Happy Hour on the Beth El Podcast Network. Have a wonderful summer — we’ll see you after the holidays!
