Some news: Bonjour Chai is launching a Slack channel. We’re inviting anyone who wants to engage in a true dialogue about important issues that matter to Canadian Jews to join this national community. Email [email protected] to get a free, exclusive invite. You can also follow and talk to us on Twitter @bonjourchai.
To help us navigate this world, we asked Jesse Brown, host of the popular Canadaland podcast, to join the show. He shares his thoughts on how social media plays a role in building Jewish communities, the role of institutional gatekeeping online and how podcasting is very much like Judaism.
Plus, we discuss the third book in our month-long book club, Gary Barwin’s Nothing the Same, Everything Haunted: The Ballad of Motl the Cowboy.
