I’m a CJ Convert

While I’ve got a Jewish wife, Jewish kids and an ever-widening circle of Jewish friends and colleagues, I stubbornly remain non-chosen. But I’m sick of being merely Jew-adjacent. So a few weeks ago, I became an official Cultural Jew, in front of a live audience at the opening of the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco. There was a quiz, humiliation and the downing of gefilte fish juice. My friends at Reboot have just posted audio, in streaming and podcast formats, of the whole mishigas.
