JEWISH. INDEPENDENT. NONPROFIT.
Larry King has got moves. The octagenerian newsman showed off his breakdance skills (using the term loosely here) during an interview with “Black-ish” star Miles “Baby Boogaloo” Brown. Highlight: “This is new for a Jew!” Hats off to Heeb for this little gem of a find.
Turns out, James Deen has hobbies. And those hobbies include food. The Jewish porn star is now the face of a culinary web series, aptly named “James Deen Loves Food.” Produced by Woodrocket.com (a porn/comedy site that is definitey NSFW), past episodes have shown Deen coming up with the world’ most expensive burrito, ordering the…
As of today, it’s T-minus three days until we finally reunite with Mandy Patinkin’s beard — let’s face it, it’s almost its own character at this point — as “Homeland” premieres its third season on September 29. Just to get you in the mood (as if you weren’t already), comedian Eliot Glazer has put together…
I blame Heeb. Launched in 2001, “The New Jew Review” iterated a sharp, satirical take on Jewish culture.

At the top: Preternaturally youthful Facebook…

In a statement on its website titled “So Much for Controlling the Media,” Heeb’s publisher and editor-in-chief, Joshua Neuman, wrote: I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that Heebmagazine.com…
In New York tonight the battle is joined between East and West, downtown Heeb on the East and uptown Columbia University on the West. Will New York’s dwindling Jewish population plump for a night out with Shana Liebman leading a panel of contributors in discussing the new Heeb book “Sex, Drugs and Gefilte Fish” at…
Roseanne Barr as Hitler, Quentin Tarantino trailing a (satirical) Nazi recruitment film and now Rush Limbaugh says that President Obama’s logo is Nazi-like and that the Democratic party has some similarity of issues. Hello? People? Didn’t you read The Polymath talking about “how easy it is to use the Holocaust as the ultimate cheap shot:…
