Bubble Trouble

This week on Unorthodox, we’re celebrating our proximity Tony Award.

Our Jew of the week is the comedian Alex Edelman. He returns to Unorthodox to celebrate his solo show, Just for Us, heading to Broadway for the summer. He also shares why it’s important to him to be pushing the conversation on Jewish art forward, beyond the low-hanging fruit of “bubbes, brisket, and bagels.”

Our gentile of the week is author and sportswriter Will Leitch. He joins us to talk about his new novel, The Time Has Come, and share his insights about the challenges and joys of fatherhood, baseball, and Little League.

We love to hear from you! Send us emails at [email protected], or leave a voicemail at our listener line: (914) 570-4869.
