Über diesen Titel

In this episode, I sit down with Menachem Silverstein — an Orthodox Jewish writer, comedian, and ordained Rabbi whose unique blend of wit, depth, and lived Jewish experience has made him a rising voice in the comedy world. Together, we explore the behind-the-scenes culture of stand-up comedy clubs, where vulnerability, honesty, and sharp observation collide under the spotlight.

Menachem shares his perspective on performing as an Orthodox Jew in mainstream spaces, the subtle (and not-so-subtle) forms of antisemitism comedians encounter, and the power of humor as both resistance and healing. We also dive into how comedy allows us to hold complexity, challenge narratives, and build unexpected bridges — even in a time of heightened tension and polarization.

This conversation is thoughtful, funny, and profoundly relevant. Whether you’re interested in Jewish life, comedy culture, or the ways jokes can reveal deeper truths, this episode offers an honest and insightful window into the world of a comedian who carries both a mic and a mission.
