Havdalah Happy Hour on the Beth El Podcast Network
Send us Fan Mail We’re back with another episode of Havdalah Happy Hour on the Beth El Podcast Network! With Ben Kreshtool away on vacation (we miss you, Ben!), Jill Suffel and Cantor Emily are joined by long-time listener, first-time caller—Rabbi Lowenberg! In this episode, the crew uncovers the Rabbi's hidden talent (spoiler: it involves perfectly folding a fitted sheet 🛏️), takes a walk down memory lane with Mad Magazine, DVDs, VHS tapes, and CDs, and talks all things Baltimore sports and current life happenings. As always, we wrap things up with our signature blessing and the Shonda of the Week. Watch the full video on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts—and let us know in the comments: do you still own a working VCR or DVD player?

Plus, the crew settles the ultimate hot dog topping debate, gets hit with a heavy dose of retro nostalgia (remember landlines and old-school board games?), and wraps up with our signature blessing and Shonda of the Week. Watch on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts—and don’t forget to like, subscribe, and drop your favorite hot dog topping in the comments! 🎧✨
