  • Earth #157: Turkey Isn't Kosher
    Nov 19 2024

    Around 500 years ago Jews were introduced to turkeys and, after a lot of debate among Rabbis, the vast majority of the Jewish world eventually agreed we can eat them.

    That’s where Earth #157 diverged from our world.

    In this episode, Dovid Taub interviews an alternate version of his sister, writer Rachel Klein, who shares what it’s like to live in a world where turkey isn’t kosher.

    For more information on the kosher status of turkeys in our world, check out this article:
