Torah Smash! The Podcast for Nerdy Jews
Episode 79 - Let’s Get Together: Live In Austin!
Barak, Ethan, and RDY were finally in the same zip code together, for the first time ever! So they decided to record an episode with the locals! When these nerds get together they play board games, watch superhero movies, visit comic book shops, go to escape rooms, and tell wonderfully terrible jokes. So what happens when you put them together in a room full of Jews? It turns out, you end up with a definitely-not-fake laugh track! This episode comes to you live from Congregation Beth Israel in Austin, TX!
