The Big Schmear is back and I'm happy to have you all here!
I've had some time to think about the relevance of The Big Schmear while on a break and it's pretty clear to me that Jewish food continues to be a great connector for us all. And I plan to continue conversations about Jewish food, but, at the same time I couldn't help but wonder, why limit how we define Jewish culture? Why not expand our experience and explore additional topics like Jewish music, Jewish literature, Jewish dance, and everything in between?
So with that in mind, I invite you to list to our first Big Schmear 2.0 episode. I'm in conversation with good friend and colleague Cindy Stern, the Executive Director of the Chicago Israeli Film Festival. I will be talking with her about her festival, specifically touching on Israeli film & TV. Cindy will give us a taste of what goes into festival planning and how she finds those amazing films! Who's ready for some popcorn?
