This Week We’re Bringing You Everything (Bagels)

[additional-authors]
July 24, 2020
The Bagel Report

No, they’re not actually bringing bagels to you, but the Bagels are giving it their all this week. Rolling out some regular segments, Esther and Erin still manage to make their regular mentions of shows they love while taking a delightful diversion into the weird world of “Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga.” Plus, the Bagels take time to appreciate Josh Gad, tackle Twitter’s #JewishPrivilege conversation, celebrate Erin finally having challah for Shabbat and debate whether “Dirty Dancing” is the most Jewish movie of all time. Esther also connects Jewish fast day Tisha b’Av to popular culture and her summer camp experience.
