IsraelCast


Jun 27, 2018

This week on IsraelCast, comedian and lifelong Jewish educator Benji Lovitt joins us on the line to discuss the nuances of American Jewish humor, how creativity thrives in times of crisis, and the importance of knowing your audience. As a recent oleh (Israeli citizen), Benji utilizes his unique perspective to analyze the complexities of Israeli “sabra” humor and its reflection on Israeli society, understanding it all within the larger context of the phrase “throughout our history, we Jews have laughed to keep from crying.”
