📣 NEW SUBSTACK ALERT 🚨

🎉 Introducing The Wondering Jew

What does it mean to be Jewish in America today?

This is the question of the hour, for so many of us.

And that's what this newsletter is all about.

Anthony Mason would have given Wemby fits.

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@MichaelSalfino I enjoy your work and hope my random Knicks queries are not burdensome. That said... as a Knicks fan, what's my greatest source of optimism for this series? What should be my greatest area of concern?

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@rockmarooned Eugene Levy the protagonist, surveying his son's broken generation and wondering how it all went wrong. AMERICAN PIE: THE LAST SLICE.

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@MichaelSalfino They're saying it's possible he'll play Game 3. Gotta sit him at least a few days, right?

[The Modest Teacher @ModestTeacher]

You can teach nearly every high school subject effectively with a textbook and a chalkboard, and the only reason we don’t is because education companies figured out they could milk districts out of millions of dollars by convincing them otherwise.

@kl3dger @Ksidiii I do think the S&P will play a large role in whether we invade Cuba.

Dems gonna Dem

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@kl3dger @INArteCarloDoss When you accept a Cabinet-level positions you have to divest but you can do so tax free, so a guy like Bessent gets paid tens of millions of dollars to do this.

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@kl3dger Also Big Short sequel, but it's all about TACO traders.

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@MichaelSalfino I'm a longtime Knicks fan, can you help me understand the defensive success they've had over the last ~20 games? Not sure how to account for it, but it seems like it's a big enough sample that it's real.

[Matt Wallace @MattWallace888]

James Van Der Beek’s final message to the world is one of the most powerful things I have ever heard. Stop whatever you are doing and listen to this! 🥺

[Rod (Izzy) 🇺🇸🦅 @1zzyzyx1]

Reporter Jana Shortal from @kare11 in Minneapolis recounts how agents mistreated her after the Alex Pretti murder. She was intentionally sprayed with chemicals while wearing her press badge and standing in a designated safe zone, revealing a serious lapse in training and judgment among the officers involved. #DemsUnited

[Mike Bloom @AMikeBloomType]

Before his debut novel "Escape!" arrives on bookshelves tomorrow, I spoke with @stephenfishbach about how #Survivor severe gastrointestinal distress kicked off his 10-year journey of writing a reality TV story. And how many people (including myself!) inspired the tale: https://t.co/HELRpwiGWr

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

@rockmarooned Thank you for being on this hill. She deserves way more respect and recognition than she gets.

[Jesse Hassenger @rockmarooned]

I hunger and thirst for more Amanda Seyfried recognition https://t.co/wfMD1WWsda

@kl3dger @TrungTPhan !!! One gambling consultant tells The Economist that “By the time a customer places his first bet, [sportsbooks] are 80-90% certain they know the lifetime value of the account.”

Happy birthday to Hans Bethe (born 1906), a German‑born Jewish physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1967 for his work on stellar nuclear processes, expanding our understanding of the inner workings of stars.

If you're interested in writing about Jewish life, culture, texts, ritual, tradition, humor, and food, give The Wondering Jew a look.

Here's my Month One FAQ:

#judaism

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

One month ago, when I launched my Substack, The Wondering Jew, I had a hypothesis.

A thread. #judaism

[Joshua Max Feldman @jmaxfeldman]

The Wondering Jew is one of the fastest growing Substacks in the category.

More importantly, I've met and had conversations with so many people who want to talk about Judaism, engage with Judaism, participate more fully in #Judaism.
