In this episode, Tami sits down with illustrator, author and all-round creative powerhouse Beck Feiner for a conversation that’s equal parts Jewy, chewy and a little bit shamey. Tami and Beck cover the full spectrum: from having proud Jewish mums and to online dating, Jewish weddings (and divorces) to why Jewish South African immigrants often find themselves the butt of jokes. They also tackle a thornier question: in the current climate, are Jewish-themed picture books still commercially possible? As always, expect a mix of light, shade and the kind of honesty that makes us just a little bit ashamed to admit…Book tickets to Jewish & https://thejewishindependent.com.au/events/jewish-2Beck’s website: www.beckfeinercreations.comArticles adjacent to this episode: https://thejewishindependent.com.au/should-i-say-im-jewish-on-my-dating-profilehttps://thejewishindependent.com.au/my-renewed-hope-for-a-changing-south-africahttps://thejewishindependent.com.au/orthodox-women-begin-sex-strike-against-divorce-refusalTami and Dash on Instagram: tami_sussman_bits and dashiel_and_pascoeYou won’t regret subscribing to The Jewish Independent's bi-weekly newsletter: jewishindependent.com.auX: TJI_auYouTube: thejewishindependentAUFacebook: TheJewishIndependentAUInstagram: thejewishindependentLinkedIn: the-jewish-independent
