Longtime friend of the podcast and Man with Good Hair Ben Lerner joins me on the Trauma Dump couch. Ben is an in demand Orthodox Jewish event performer, as well as a singer/songwriter putting out soulful white boy records and playing gigs around hipster brooklyn. Needless to say, he is a man after my own heart, and our conversation here runs the gamut from the perils of charisma, the struggles of being a "frum" creative, and a bonus history lesson on our boy Stalin.

What a beautiful conversation man. Too many golden nuggets of ideas in here to count. Yoni is an old friend on a long, strange, wonderful journey towards healing himself and others. That journey has led him from years in yeshiva aiming to become a Rabbi, all the way to kundalini yoga, mens wellness retreats, dramatic therapy, meditation, and a truly Jesus-like beard. I hope this episode gives you as much food for thought as it gave me.

In a very special episode of Trauma Dump, I sit down with Mendy Gerlitzky, who can neither confirm nor deny his involvement in the now infamous synagogue renovation below 770 Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn New York. This episode is my attempt to uncover the truth behind one of the craziest, most viral stories to ever come from the Orthodox Jewish world. I wanted to hear the facts from someone on the (below) ground floor, not from a PR person. You've heard about it. You've seen the memes. You've read the conspiracy theories online. Hopefully, this podcast will shed some light on how and why all the craziness went down. Dig in.
