Holy....! Each week we’ll discuss an episode of ”The Good Place” along with a Jewish text or idea or two that relates to the theme of the episode. Hosted by Jon Spira-Savett, rabbi and lover of great TV comedy and ethical philosophy, along with different co-hosts who teach Judaism and Torah and are smart and funny. We may not be as funny as ”The Good Place” itself, but we channel our own inner Chidis and Janets, as well as our Eleanors and Michaels and Tahanis and Jasons.

For this week of Yom Kippur, the Jewish “day of atonement”, we bring you again our earlier episode that addresses the themes of the holy day and suggests a Good Place-style addendum to the traditions of the day! Look for a brand new episode from us soon, and then a special with our first show insider, editor Eric Kissack!
On The Good Place the group spends a last night listening to music and dancing and reflecting individually and in pairs, before leaving the neighborhood and resolving to make their way to the actual Good Place. On the podcast, Rebecca Rosenthal and Jon Spira-Savett talk about teshuvah as looking back; consider Hillel’s teaching about self, others, and the importance of now; and wonder if Yom Kippur wouldn’t be better if it were less solemn and more of a dance party.
