It’s Thursday, which means the new episode of Unorthodox is here. This week, Mark Oppenheimer, Liel Leibovitz, and I sound off about the latest headlines: the legal battle between Jewish dating apps JDate and JSwipe (JDate is suing JSwipe for trademark violation for using the ‘J’ in its name), plus a Nazi-themed romance novel, and an Israeli-based crowd-funding effort to reelect Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Ophira Eisenberg, stand-up comic and host of NPR’s quiz show ‘Ask Me Another,’ joins us to talk trivia, discuss the politics of strangers touching pregnant women’s bumps (she’s seven months pregnant), and school us on why women don’t like male strippers.
