Allison Kaplan Sommer, Don Futterman and Noah Efron discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.

—A Woman’s Place—
It’s the patriarchy, Stupid!
—Curses & Blessings—
Reflections on the year that was.
All this and songs to take us from the end of the month of Elul through the Days of Awe!
