Episode 12 - Rosh Hashanah

Rosh Hashanah! A new start with a new year. Right on time. Just what we needed. In an age when humans need to pray most, our congregations are either socially distanced, closed, outdoors, or on-line. But it is an interesting thing about talking to the Almighty. Everybody does it differently. In their own time. In their own way. Some even podcast.

Dave Gunders, our Troubadour, has written a beautiful song called Good to Believe. The story behind the song is sensational and should make you fall further for our musical pal and dedicated dad.

Scott Levin was a hugely successful Colorado lawyer who gave it up a decade ago to become Regional Director of the Mountain States Anti-Defamation League.  The ADL is on top of major threats to our civilization and the Jewish people. For example, Michelle Malkin.

Further on top of those threats is famed American University history professor Allan Lichtman. This Washington D.C. resident is good friends with Bob Woodward and listen to his description of how Bob’s encounters with the Donald have made Bob feel, frightened for our country. Professor Lichtman perceives and explains the many threats Trump poses to our democratic republic. And wait till you hear Lichtman’s takedown of AG Bill Barr.

There is more reason to celebrate than just Rosh Hashanah 5781. Our Denver Nuggets are in the Western Conference Finals in this oddest NBA season ever. I’m loving the action and excitement and we talk about what it all means with the Altitude Sports’ voice of the Nuggets, Olympic Gold Volleyball champ, Chris Marlowe. Bring it on LeBron.

5780 was a tumultuous mess. Let us hope and pray 5781 will be better. So much of that will depend on November 3 and what we do to work toward the right result. May 5781 be a sweet year for you and your loved ones and America. And for the Nuggets.
