How does the way we move shape the way we feel? Can movement heal the body and mind? In this episode, Josh and Aya explore movement in its many forms — from practices like yoga, pilates, dance, stretching, strength training, and sports to physical therapy and rehabilitation, navigating injury and the fear of re-injury (including Josh's back injury), meditative and expressive movement, free movement and contact improvisation, reconnecting with the physical world, the experience of immobility and the limits that come with aging or genetics, movement as language and self-expression, and how shifts in the way we move reshape how we see ourselves.

How do you cope with loss? Is it possible to "be ready" for a loved one’s passing? In this episode, Josh opens up about the recent death of his father, reflecting on the funeral, eulogy, and shiva, as he and Aya delve into the complexities of grief, how it changes a person, the contrasts between sudden death and prolonged illness, the pain of grieving a future that will never come, the expectations we carry for our parents to witness our lives, the bodily toll of mourning, coping mechanisms, the interplay between grief and personal growth, the reshaping of self that follows loss, and the question of whether things happen for a reason.

What sustains modern antisemitism? What challenges do Jews face today? In this episode, Aya and Josh continue their examination of antisemitism in a post-October 7th landscape—including the terror attack itself—exploring tokenism (Norman Finkelstein, Jewish Voice for Peace, J Street, Candace Owens), scapegoating, ‘westsplaining,’ propaganda, Holocaust inversion, visibility and safety concerns, relationship dynamics, mental health impacts, and the challenges of fostering genuine dialogue in an increasingly antisemitic world.
