Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 7 minutesSynopsis: Last night (2/1/26), I was honored to give a shiur at Congregation Eitz Chayim of Dogwood Park (West Hempstead, NY) in memory of my dear student Adira a"h, on the occasion of her third yahrzeit. As I mention in the disclaimers toward the beginning, a friend of mine was worried that it might come across as "a wackadoodle shiur," on account of its eclectically ambitious scope and agenda. I didn't care. My goal was to give over the type of Torah that represented Adira, and that she would have enjoyed.The shiur might alternatively be titled “The Slytherin Path to Torah,” and is my attempt to demonstrate that such a path exists. If that doesn't mean anything to you - or if, as Adira's mom joked, you're prone to mistaking “Salazar Slytherin” for the name of a Chasidish rebbe you're not familiar with - don't worry. I provide the necessary background information at the beginning of the shiur.One more disclaimer I feel obligated to repeat. In the shiur, I draw upon my personal takeaways from Lawrence Kaplan's introduction to Maimonides: Between Philosophy and Halakhah, based on notes taken by Rabbi Gerald Homnick on the lectures given by the Rav (Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik zt”l) on the Guide for the Perplexed at Bernard Revel Graduate School (1950–1951). My takeaways should not be regarded as authoritative. In fact, my one regret is that I made a last-minute decision to omit an entire portion of the Rav's argument, which I subsequently realized was critical for the level of clarity I was aiming for. Oh well. If you're interested in a fuller understanding of the abstract ideas toward the end of the shiur, you should read at least Kaplan's introduction to this work.You can find my eulogy for Adira here.And my reflection on her shivah here.And my attempt to process my own grieving here.-----מקורות:פאה א:ארמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר זמנים, הלכות מגילה וחנוכה ד:ידאבות ב:טרס"ג - הקדמה לפירוש משליתמיד דף לב עמוד אמשלי א:יז-יט; גיג-טז; ח:יב-כא; י:ד; יא:יז; יד:לדמצודת דוד - משלי כה:כא-כברמב"ם - מורה הנבוכים ג:נג-נדירמיהו ט:כב-כגLawrence Kaplan, "Maimonides: Between Philosophy and Halacha" (pp.36,49-50,53)ירושלמי מכות ג:יגרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תלמוד תורה ה:יגBruce Lee's writings-----The Torah content for the month of February is sponsored by the Koffsky family in memory of Adira Rose Koffsky a”h, whose third yahrzeit is on the 11th of Shvat.

Send us a textIn this episode we discuss Harry's journey to Hogwarts in our version of the TV show. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:·      1:21 Quick Recap, and opening at Kings Cross. We could also open in the Leaky Cauldron, but it would be better for us to take that extra time exploring the wizarding world than the Muggle one. We see Harry meet the Weasleys, go through the barrier, get on the Hogwarts Express, and arrive at Hogsmeade Station.·      13:15 There's Hogwarts! The moment where the students round the bend and see Hogwarts is the biggest milestone so far. We see the symbol of magic in the wizarding world, and the place where the core parts of the story will take place. As viewers, we have seen this place more times than we can count, so it's almost as if we are showing it to Harry for the first time.·      20:53 The Sorting Ceremony. The doors to the Great Hall swing open, and we see the beginnings of the Hogwarts factions form. Draco and Harry are the most important sortings of the ceremony. The hat barely touches Draco's head, and he is sorting into Slytherin. Harry goes through a bit of a conversation with the Sorting Hat, and it is important to see Dumbledore reaction to all of this. We end with Harry standing in his dormitory with his trunk, Hedwig, and the window with the Hogwarts grounds.Having anything you want to hear or say?

In this episode, the Pottership trio dive into a pair recommended by listener Jeremy, self-styled as their 2nd favorite Slytherin, James Potter and Regulus Black.

In part two of our Severus Snape journey, we dive into the contradictions that define him. Is he truly a good member of the Order of the Phoenix, or simply too useful to ignore? Does being an effective double agent make him admirable—or just strategic? We also ask whether Snape embodies what it means to be a “good Slytherin,” and what that label even means when ambition and loyalty can serve both brilliance and cruelty. Finally, we take on the most complicated question of all: was Snape a “good half-blood”? In tracing how he names himself the Half-Blood Prince while rejecting the very lineage that shaped him, we uncover how blood status in the wizarding world is less about biology than about narrative, choice, and power. This episode explores Snape's usefulness, his loyalties, and his contradictions, all while leaving us with one lingering truth—identity is never neutral, and Snape's is anything but.

In this Prof Responds episode on Slytherin House, Professor Wamble takes on the accusations that he went too easy on the snakes. Drawing on listener comments, he dives deep into the complicated ways ambition, loyalty, and reputation shape our understanding of Slytherins. From reframing ambition as neutral rather than evil, to recognizing the pack-like protectiveness that makes Slytherins more Hufflepuff-adjacent than we admit, to wrestling with the Malfoys' murky line between altruism and self-interest, this episode pulls no punches. Along the way, we question whether it's the individuals or the corrupt systems they move through that make ambition look ruthless, and whether Hogwarts' own biases (and Harry's perspective) stack the deck against Slytherins from the start. Ultimately, Slytherin House may be written as the villains of the story, but Prof argues that they're not the only ones upholding supremacy—and our refusal to extend them nuance says as much about us as it does about them.

When in doubt, follow the spiders to this week's One Page at a Time! Alice and Martha's discussion this week includes analysis of Ron's phobia and awe at Harry's experience with the Forbidden Forest.
