Rabbi David Rotenberg got his first break performing jokes when he was 15 years old, in 1998. He had to rush out of his yeshiva's Talmud class to get to a 7-Eleven store payphone and book the gig at the Yuk Yuk's comedy club in his hometown of Ottawa. Over the past nearly 30 years, the Orthodox rabbi and Jewish educator chose to put his stand-up comedy career on the back burner for extended periods while he focused on his rabbinical duties and family. But he kept exercising his comedy muscles when possible, honing his material for mainly Jewish audiences, including at synagogue fundraisers. Since Oct. 7, however, the pull of the punchline proved too strong for Rabbi Rotenberg to ignore. He decided it was time to return to the comedy circuit, doing a mix of unpaid gigs and some paid slots. Rotenberg, who wears a kippah and tzitzit, describes himself as “edgy for a rabbi, but clean for a comedian,” with material that advocates for Israel, mocks antisemitism and gets his audience laughing, even with some Holocaust humour, depending on the crowd. Rabbi David Rotenberg joins host Ellin Bessner on today's episode of The CJN's North Star podcast to talk about how comedy can help us process these last two turbulent years.

Daniel Pollack-Pelzner, cultural omnivore and author of Lin-Manuel Miranda: The Education of an Artist, is back for round two and the deep dive continues! This week, Daniel tells us all about the time Stephen Sondheim visited Lin's high school dished the dirt about West Side Story with a room full of teenage theatre kids. That's where Lin learned that not even Sondheim nails it on the first try, and the messy process can lead to something even better than the original. That could be its own episode but hell no there's so much more going on this week! Among other things Daniel talks about what *he* learned while writing the book, the power of a great cliffhanger (seriously, you'll get chills!), and the importance of finding your field of other people in bee costumes. Ahem... I trust you'll understand the reference to the 90's lore without my having to name that tune. Plus, Daniel fills is in about his work on Mary Kathryn Nagle's upcoming (and currently untitled) documentary film on tribal consulting tribal sovereignty in law and theater, and the often-overlooked epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW).

Description:This episode of On Stage takes us deeper into the SBJ archives than ever before, revisiting a keynote interview from the 2016 Intercollegiate Athletics Forum with Paul Tagliabue, the longtime former commissioner of the National Football League. Tagliabue, who led the NFL from 1989 to 2006, oversaw one of the league's most transformative eras: four expansion franchises, high-profile franchise relocations, and landmark decisions that reflected the NFL's influence on culture and society—from postponing games after 9/11 to moving a Super Bowl over Arizona's refusal to recognize Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2020, his impact continues to shape the sports landscape today. In conversation with SBJ's Publisher and Executive Editor Abe Madkour, Tagliabue reflects on leadership, governance, social responsibility, and the business of sports during his time at the helm. Listening now, nearly a decade later, provides unique perspective: a reminder of how far the industry has come and how timeless lessons in integrity, vision, and adaptability remain. This is the beauty of On Stage: giving important conversations from SBJ's archives new life, showing how they continue to inform the issues and debates of today.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Description:In this episode of On Stage, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred joins SBJ Senior Writer Joe Lemire for a candid conversation on the business, challenges, and opportunities shaping professional baseball. Recorded on April 22, 2025, at the CAA World Congress of Sports presented by Sports Business Journal, this keynote captures Manfred's perspective just months before major headlines about MLB's labor landscape and new national media rights negotiations. While the news cycle has since moved quickly—with fresh updates on his talks with players over the next labor agreement and signs of progress on a new media deal—this conversation offers an evergreen look at the commissioner's leadership priorities and long-term vision for the league. Topics include: Labor Relations: How MLB approaches dialogue with the players' union and lessons from past negotiations. Media and Distribution Strategy: MLB's vision for its next rights deal and the role of direct-to-consumer streaming. The Business of the Game: Expanding MLB's global reach and deepening engagement with younger fans. Competition and On-Field Innovation: Balancing tradition with changes that improve pace of play and overall fan experience. Leadership at the Helm: What it takes to guide a century-old league in a rapidly evolving sports landscape. It's a valuable snapshot of the commissioner's thinking—one that's as relevant today as when he stepped on stage. 

Deine Interviewfragen verraten mehr über dich, als dir vielleicht lieb ist. In dieser Solo-Folge schaue ich mir 7 typische Fragen an, die in Podcast-Interviews ständig gestellt werden – und die nicht nur langweilig wirken, sondern auch deine Haltung als Host entlarven. Was sagt es über dich, wenn du deinen Gast bittest, sich „einfach mal vorzustellen“? Oder wenn du das Gespräch am Ende mit „Möchtest du noch etwas sagen?“ abgibst? Ich zeige dir, wie du solche Stolperfallen erkennst, warum sie dir als Interviewer:in schaden – und wie du sofort souveräner, präziser und spannender fragst. So führst du Gespräche, die wirklich Eindruck machen. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Their performances are not just sets of songs but shared experiences—moments where the band's passion for music translates into an energy that pulls the audience in.
