OM DENNE EPISODE
In this wide-ranging and deeply thought-provoking conversation, Rabbi Daniel Feldman joins Rabbi Yitzchok Adlerstein and Rabbi Simi Lerner to explore hypocrisy, virtue signaling, moral outrage, parenting, political discourse, antisemitism, and the danger of reducing morality to public posturing.
Along the way, the conversation moves from Chazal and the Baal Shem Tov to Jonathan Haidt, Thomas Jefferson, Rav Norman Lamm, social psychology, academic research, and the challenge of integrating Torah wisdom with contemporary intellectual culture. Rabbi Feldman also reflects on how Torah thinkers can engage modern scholarship responsibly while remaining grounded in enduring Torah values.
This episode is both intellectually rich and remarkably timely: a conversation about moral blindness, human inconsistency, and what it means to pursue truth in an age dominated by outrage and performance.
