Could Joe Lieberman Exist Today? | Rebecca Lieberman | Behind the Bima #201

Description

Joe Lieberman was almost the first Orthodox Jewish Vice President of the United States. But she knew him as “Dad.” In this episode of Behind the Bima, the Rabbis are joined by Rebecca Lieberman to reflect on her father’s legacy, rising antisemitism, bipartisan politics, and whether someone like Joe Lieberman could still exist in America today. While many remember the Senator as a well-known figure in American Jewish life, Rebecca remembers him less as a politician and more as a father who protected Shabbos, listened deeply, and believed that public service should never come at the expense of character. 🔔 Subscribe to @rabbiefremgoldberg you never miss an episode of Behind the Bima This season of Behind the Bima is sponsored by Julie Charlestein & Darryl Benjamin in honor of their grandparents, Morton & Malvina Charlestein, and their children, Ruby and Maccabi Benjamin. === 🆕 New episodes release Tuesdays at 6:00 AM EST === CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Intro 0:30 - Banter 11:29 - Rebecca Lieberman Interview === Also available on Apple and Spotify: 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/behind-the-bima/id1513477929 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0hhhCkfDDy9ppIOnASBvjQ
