We dig into this through a Jewish lens, from Talmudic principles to modern media ethics, and get surprisingly personal about struggles with Chabad identity and navigating between Orthodox and liberal Jewish worlds. Also in this episode: Why there are 20 Christian Bible study groups on one college campus The Gene Wilder/Mel Brooks origin story Joe Rogan's hilariously wrong guess about Jewish demographics A brutally honest discussion about how we justify breaking our own values (yes, including the hypothetical In-N-Out burger scenario).
