Behind the scenes of ‘Chutzpod!’

Chutzpod! is a weekly podcast that brings a Jewish lens to life’s toughest questions.

Hear how Joshua Malina, co-star of The West Wing, and Rabbi Shira Stutman are teaming up to relate the weekly Torah portion to modern life, in audio, with Jodi Rudoren.

The pair have had radically different career trajectories and live on opposite ends of America, but do what Jews do best… teach and learn; crack jokes; and argue with one another about everything under the sun.
