Howie Danao grew up in an affluent Tel Aviv home as the adopted son of a secular Israeli family, alongside his Filipino mother who worked as a caretaker. A gifted singer fluent in Hebrew, he rose to the semi-finals of a major Israeli reality competition and later served in the IDF even before he gained citizenship. A transformative Jewish-identity program pushed him to confront his past and his purpose, sending him on a spiritual journey that led to conversion, religious life, and using his music to share his story of faith, belonging, and love for Israel.

Yehuda Sabiner grew up in Har Nof, in the heart of Jerusalem, within a Ger chasidish community where his childhood doctor made a powerful impact on him. That early influence set him on a remarkable path, and he went on to become the first fully chasidish, Israel born doctor. After October 7th, he joined the IDF’s search and rescue efforts, bringing his medical skills into some of the most difficult moments the country has faced. In this interview, he reflects on his journey and shares how he manages to balance the different worlds of family, chasidus, medicine, and national service.

I used to think astrology was nonsense - until I met Rabbi Yitzchok Aharon Pinkesz. Rabbi Pinkesz reveals how Judaism and the Torah have always contained a hidden wisdom about the stars - what he calls “Kosher Astrology.”
He explains how your birth chart reflects your divine mission, why timing in life is never random, and how God uses celestial cycles to guide human destiny.
This isn’t superstition - it’s a deep exploration of how the universe, faith, and free will are intertwined in ways most of us never imagined. We even discuss what Kosher Astrology says about Trump.

From Amish to Jewish??? Yes. You read that right. Briana Leapley, now Nechama Leapley, shares her inspiring journey from Amish life in rural Kentucky to becoming an Orthodox Jewish convert in Brooklyn. Leaving behind her family and traditions, she navigates intense culture shock, finds guidance from rabbis, and embraces a life of Torah and mitzvot. Her story is one of faith, courage, and transformation, moving from Amish simplicity to Jewish identity, and from Briana to Nechama, with her heart set on Israel.

► The Rumspringa Kallah: A Wild Twist in Jewish Fiction
A Chasidic scholar with a complicated halachic past sets off on a startling quest to find a convert bride among the Amish. It is a gripping, dramatic story that blends suspense, sharp dialogue, and deep Torah ideas. I actually mentioned this book to Nechama, the former Amish girl I interviewed, and a copy is already on its way to her.
The novel pulls you in with its mix of humor, intensity, and rich theological debate. It also includes powerful anti missionary arguments that unfold through bold conversations. In plain language: it is riveting, nail biting, and impossible to put down.

Born in post-communist Poland with no access to Jewish life, Yakov Wasilewicz’s journey from isolation to inspiration is nothing short of miraculous. From a secret childhood identity to a self-chosen bris at 12 and Torah study in America, his story celebrates courage, faith, and maternal sacrifice. His story is a moving testament to how one man’s determination and music keep the light of heritage burning.

Rabbi Daniel Walker, leader of the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Manchester, became a symbol of courage during the Yom Kippur 2025 terrorist attack on his shul. When the attacker tried to storm the building with a knife, Rabbi Walker bravely held the doors shut, protecting his congregants while two community members tragically lost their lives. He has since vowed that he will not let the darkness win and continues to lead his community and the Jewish people of the UK.

When Sunny Levi was a little girl, she prayed every day for her disabled brother to be healed - prayers that went "unanswered" and left her questioning God, faith, and the meaning of prayer itself. Years later, that same heartbreak became the catalyst for her spiritual awakening. Now a 7th-degree black belt, Emunah life coach, and founder of the Hitbodedut Spiritual Boot Camp, Sunny channels that early pain into purpose - teaching others how to find strength, peace, and clarity through personal prayer, faith, and self-discipline.

David Tenenbaum was a proud Jewish engineer working for the U.S. Army when his life suddenly turned upside down. Without warning, FBI agents stormed his home, accused him of being an Israeli spy, and tore through his belongings looking for “evidence” that didn’t exist. For years he lived under suspicion, labeled a traitor for nothing more than his faith. He lost his reputation, his security, and nearly his sanity—but never his belief in truth. When the Pentagon finally admitted he’d been targeted because he was Jewish, David’s story became a chilling reminder of what happens when fear replaces justice—and how faith can outlast even the darkest lies.

In this rare & anonymous audio-only episode, we sit down with an agunah who has been left in limbo—waiting for a get that almost never came.
Her story includes twists, betrayals, and moments of unexpected strength. But more than anything, it sheds light on what most people in the community don’t see: the day-to-day reality of being chained to someone who won’t let go. Her voice is disguised, but her truth is clear.
This is not just a story of pain—it’s one of resilience, courage, and hope.
