Scenarios: Finding Your Voice with Sara LeMesh

Welcome to the Scenarios podcast, where we explore different topics through conversations that I find interesting. I hope you do, too! In today’s Scenario, I spoke with Sara LeMesh, who is an opera singer. I found out I had a lot in common with Sara, although I watch opera from the audience, and she performs it on stage. Listen to our conversation about how she got into opera, the many different musical influences she has studied and performed, and how her heritage and family background influences her life on- and off-stage. During our conversation, you’ll hear Sara and me reference another podcast interview that she did last year. That conversation, from the wonderful “People Jew Wanna Know” podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/people-jew-wanna-know/id1518376121], can be found here [https://open.spotify.com/episode/72GLH7wjsODdF3kvkmjAyy], and I strongly recommend you give it a listen, too.

Scenarios: Learning, Laughing, and Humanizing Jewish Comedy with Mikey Greenblatt

Welcome to the Scenarios podcast, where we explore different topics through conversations that I find interesting. I hope you do, too! In today’s Scenario, I spoke with stand-up comedian Mikey Greenblatt, a fellow New Yorker who I met for coffee at a local cafe for an in-person, in-depth conversation. As you’ll hear in this episode, topics included how Mikey uses learning and laughter as a way of humanizing a modern-day, Modern Orthodox lifestyle of kosher foods and kosher comedy.
