In this episode we discuss: Why do so many of us choose the countercultural life of Orthodox Judaism? What leads someone to leave a religious community—or seek out a more insular one? How do we create a Jewish world that is sticky, rich, and spiritually nourishing? Tune in to hear a conversation about why we leave Jewish communities and, maybe more importantly, why we stay. Interview begins at 9:29.Moshe Krakowski is a professor at the Azrieli Graduate School for Jewish Education and Administration at Yeshiva University, where he also directs Azrieli's doctoral program. He studies American Haredi education and culture, focusing on the relationship between communal worldview, identity, and education. He also works on curriculum, cognition, and inquiry learning in Jewish educational settings.References:18Forty's OTD Archive“Passing Through” by David BashevkinAttrition and Connection in American Orthodox Judaism by Dr. Moshe Krakowski, Dr. Rachel Ginsberg, Aliza Goldstein, Abby Nadritch, Joshua Schoenberg, and Akiva Schuck“Yiddishe Taavos” by Motty IlowitzFor more 18Forty:NEWSLETTER: 18forty.org/joinCALL: (212) 582-1840EMAIL: info@18forty.orgWEBSITE: 18forty.orgIG: @18fortyX: @18_fortyWhatsApp: join hereBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/18forty-podcast--4344730/support.

This episode of the Tradition Podcast is being released on Rosh Hodesh Iyar, the tenth yahrzeit of Rav Aharon Lichtenstein zt”l. In eulogizing his father-in-law, Rabbi Soloveitchik, R. Lichtenstein observed that the Rav was a “sui generis sage—he bestrode American Orthodoxy like a colossus, transcending many of its internal fissures.” Such could be said about R. Lichtenstein himself, expanding the width of the colossus' stance to include religious life in Israel as well, where he made his home as Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Har Etzion for over 40 years. TRADITION's recently released Spring 2025 contains a section of essays exploring R. Lichtenstein's teachings and thought – and is a complement to our special enlarged winter 2014 issue dedicated to R. Lichtenstein as well (a volume planned as a tribute but whose timing very shortly before his passing meant it was received by our readers as a memorial volume). That issue, guest edited by Yitzchak Blau, Alan Jotkowitz, and Reuven Ziegler, is available in our open-access archives. Now, a decade later, we bring you a never-before published essay by R. Lichtenstein, “Relevance and Reverence” (open access), exploring some of the challenges in Jewish education at the time he first delivered the ideas as a talk in 1984 – and analyzed by Michael S. Berger, Dean of Yeshiva University's Azrieli Graduate School of Education, who writes on the ongoing relevance of “Relevance and Reverence.” In this episode, we talk with Berger about the topics raised in the two essays. Later in the episode we hear from Shlomo Zuckier about his contribution to the volume, revisiting R. Lichtenstein's classic essay, “Does Jewish Tradition Recognize an Ethic Independent of Halakha?” Zuckier, a research associate at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton and consulting editor at TRADITION, penned an impressive and sweeping survey of the impact and reception of “Ethic Independent,” which originally appeared 50 years ago. Watch a video version of the recording. Subscribers can access all the content in this new issue at TraditionOnline.org or enjoy the print copy which should be arriving in post boxes in the coming days. In our open-access archives you can find all of R. Lichtenstein's many contributions to TRADITION over the years.The post Rav Lichtenstein's Legacy first appeared on Tradition Online.

But, when we look to our friends in Israel, we find that our approach is by no means the only one. In this episode we discuss:How does Israel's Hardal community differ from America's Centrist Orthodox community? What do olim parents think of the way religion and politics are intertwined in Israel? How has “flip-out” culture in gap-year programs evolved in recent decades?Tune in to hear a conversation about understanding religious growth in ways that transcend “right” and “left.” Interview begins at 11:41.Rav Yehuda Turetsky is a rosh mesivta of Yeshiva Sha'alavim. After attending Shaalvim, he returned to Yeshiva University, where he received a B.A. in Psychology, M.S. in Jewish Education, and Semicha as a member of the Wexner Semicha Honors Program.

When Alexandra Fleksher heard about her former high school teacher's transformation from high school Judaic studies teacher to modeling executive Ms. Julia Haart, she was curious about the turn of events in her former teacher's life. But when she saw that Ms. Haart produced and starred in a Netflix reality TV show titled “My Unorthodox Life,” Alexandra was deeply concerned about the ramifications her story and messaging would have on the global Orthodox community. As she learned more about the show and the pernicious stereotypes it peddled about Orthodox women being a monolithic group of uneducated, oppressed baby-making machines, and her portrayal of Orthodox society as a lifestyle stuck in the 1800s, Alexandra decided it was time to stand up and defend the truths of Orthodox Judaism and the truths of Orthodox women everywhere. Alexandra created a social media campaign with the hashtags #myorthodoxlife and #thisisorthodox to give Orthodox women the space to not only tell their stories, but to stand up for misrepresentation. She wanted to showcase proud religious women who lead satisfying, healthy and fulfilling Orthodox lives and to give followers insight into actual people who are Orthodox, their personalities, their backgrounds, their beliefs, and their accomplishments. She had no idea it would blow up overnight, or that it would serve as a source of strength and inspiration for so many Orthodox men and women. Thousands of women took to Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and even LinkedIn to share their stories, outraged and the claims made against them as Torah-observant women in the Netflix series. They recognized that the show wasn't about one person's story, which many felt misrepresented both the Monsey community and less-sheltered religious lifestyle that Julia in fact led. Instead, “My Unorthodox Life” was a smear campaign spouting tropes and dangerous stereotypes, and there was an army of religious women waiting who wouldn't stand for it.
