    Super Helpful!
    Hi! I’m a conversation student and am dyslexic (which I will say is a challenge! So many books!) and I was lucky enough to come across this podcast pretty early in my journey (about a year and a half ago) and I’m now listening again and am getting a whole new layer of knowledge out of it now that I have more of a foundation.. thank you so much for making this information and your own experience so accessible!
  • Turtle Calliope
    Easy to follow and engaging
    Learning about another religion doesn’t have to be boring and this podcast proves it! This podcast isn’t about trying to convert people, it’s about education, and that’s amazing in itself.
  • Wealth2022
    LOVE THIS PODCAST!!
    By far my favorite podcast. I am not Jewish and looking to convert. This has been one of the best resources to learn and get to understand the Jewish culture. If I lived in LA I would definitely visit you in person John. Although I live in New York, I am grateful for social media for allowing me to learn with John. I am not quite comfortable going in to the Synagogue’s in my area. However, this outlet gives me the opportunity to be involved and learn virtually. My only wish is for John to get back to creating content. However, the content that is on this podcast is amazing. John is witty, fun, and makes Jewish learning easy to retain and enjoy.

    Love this podcast!
    Rabbi Carrier is a great resource and I love listening to his insight on all things Jewish. This podcast is a wealth of knowledge and yet super accessible for those who are just starting out or just starting to be curious. He’s definitely one of my favorite resources and has been an indispensable resource in my conversion process.

    I like it!
    I came across Jewcurious on YouTube. As someone who is beginning my learning journey the few episodes I’ve listened have been a great resource for me. It’s especially helpful to be able to listen in my car on my way to work. Thank you!

    Awesome podcasts
    I’m 58 years old and in the conversion process in the Conservative tradition. I’ve found these podcasts very helpful. Filled with good humor and insight I enjoy every one. Indispensable for anyone on the path.

    Powerful insight
    I’m not Jewish, but I appreciate the thoughts, knowledge and incredible interviews found in this show. Rabbi Carrier does a fantastic show.
  • HRUSTICK
    Grounded
    I love Rabbi Carrier's conversations as he sifts through big questions to easy conversations. This is such a laid-back show for the curious about Judaism. A very "No Pressure" discussion that also discusses intricacies in a subtle fashion that makes it simple to understand.
  • Kary Oberbrunner
