Holy Humor – Muslim & Jewish Comics

Posted on: May 17th, 2013

Comedian and Reform Rabbi Bob Alper and Lawyer and Community Activist Azhar Usman are a comedy duo known as ‘Comedy’s Odd Couple’ performing together in an act titled: “One Muslim, One Jew, One Stage.” I’ll bet a show with a Muslim and an Orthodox Jewish comic would be even funnier—especially since the Jewish comic would [...]

Megillat Ruth on Shavuot

Posted on: May 13th, 2013

Straight forward halacha from the Web Yeshiva – because I was curious. If I didn’t know better, I’d wonder if Rabbi Chaim Brovender, dean of WebYeshiva, wasn’t filmed at 5 in the morning, Shavuot day, after staying up learning all night… But the clip was probably just shot a the end of a very long [...]

Six13: Good Shabbos

Posted on: May 10th, 2013

“Six13 is celebrating Shabbat with the debut of our fun, energetic new music video, Good Shabbos, and we would be honored if you’d post it. We figured the world had enough Purim, Passover and Chanukah tunes and videos – so why not one for the most important day of all?” Excellent point.

Harlem Shake at Golden West

Posted on: May 9th, 2013

I can’t have enough of these. The Internet can’t have enough of the Harlem Shakes. In this case, the residents of the Golden West Senior Living in Boulder, CO, the oldest of whom are 100 years old, participate in the HS.

Bill Shatner Tells a Joke

Posted on: May 7th, 2013

Yes, he tells it like you’d imagine Bill Shatner would tell a joke. In fact, this one is all about the delivery, not the punchline. And so you’ll get the punchline if you’re under 70 and don’t live in Florida: the Hialeah Park Race Track is one of the oldest existing tracks in southern Florida, [...]

Obama at a Sheva Brochos

Posted on: May 6th, 2013

I realize the whole thing is mildly racist, but the cartoonish qualities of the event are worth the itzy bitzy sense of discomfort. The official title of this clip is “President Obama Performs at a Sheva Brochos in Borough Park @ Shlomo Bochne’s simcha.” Mr Chaim Ziegler is the host. It was published on March 20, [...]

Hamas & PA Music Video (By Way of Latma TV): ‘Anyone You Can Fool I Can Fool Better’

Posted on: April 15th, 2012

Following the reunification of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority, the folks at Latma TV decided to pit two Hamas and PA spokesmen over who is better at fooling the world. Some of the asides are in Hebrew, but you can get the meaning from body language (a whole lot of body language). Come to think of it, renowned gun slinger Annie Oakley would have blended in just fine in either camp.
