The Angriest Jew in Showbusiness

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Allow me to introduce you all to Rabbi Mordechai Friedman. He’s the host of a little show on Queens Public Television called Judaism: The Series. I discovered Rabbi Friedman a few days ago while I was flipping through the channels. His intensity can be quite intriguing and I found myself instantly becoming a fan follower. Unfortunately, I have a feeling that I may be Rabbi Mordechai’s only viewer, which is totally unacceptable. This is a man who must be heard.

So, I decided to upload some of his teachings onto youtube for everyone to enjoy. (That’s the Jewish way.) Please enjoy:

I love when he gets mad at the phone number for being antisemitic.

By the way, I season-passed Judaism: The Series on my DVR, so expect a lot more crazy Mordechai clips to come your way in the short future. I really, really hope he becomes an internet sensation and, subsequently, sues me for defamation. (That’s also the Jewish way.)

Dear cassie,

If you pick up the newest issue of Heeb Magazine, you will see my name included in “The Heeb 100,” their annual list of 100 Jews to watch. (That’s in the entire diaspora, son.)

Hey, world! Get ready to watch this Jew!!!

Being on the Heeb 100 is an honor. In fact, it’s pretty much the second best list a Jew could ever hope to be on. (The first best.)

Heeb100.com has the entire list, including little Jewy bios of everyone. Be sure to see my friends Jenny, Josh, Brett, and Seth as well. Oh, and DJ AM, obvz.
