76a. (Full) Phish and the Jews with Special Guest Jonny Miller

Talking Tachlis Podcast

On this phantastic episode, Uri and Rivky talk to Phish aficionado Jonny Miller about the unique phenomenon that is the band Phish, and their fans, affectionally called Phishheads. Why does Phish have such a large and passionate following - particularly among the Jewish community? [Don't worry - you don't need to be a Phishhead for this episode to be fun. Just ask Rivky, who is, as of yet, unconvinced.] PSA: Our conversation went a little longer than usual, so we decided to release the episode in 2 versions, a long one and a short one. Just be thankful we didn't make this a 5 part episode (we were tempted!). Check out the links below to dive deeper into the Phish pond, but most importantly, read the effing Book!
