Torah Smash! The Podcast for Nerdy Jews

Episode 115 - Spiderman: Brand Jew Day


Barak seems to have a lot of issues with the newest Spider-Man movie. Maybe he shouldn’t have spent so much time thinking about it by himself. We’re social creatures and shouldn’t be isolated. It’s not good to be alone and who we are is shaped by the people around us. Ohh… I see, just like Spider-Man, right? He was alone, too. Jews don’t think people should be isolated and alone. Will Spider-Man learn his lesson? Or was this movie just a stepping stone for a different franchise?
