Back this week, Marla shares updates on the guy she’s been seeing and her upcoming birthright staffing trip. Libby talks about she helped partake in a surprise proposal and her fun travels witha Camp Nai Nai Nai cruise, and how she feels that recently with multiple friends, there’s been something in the dating air.
Their guest this week is Margarita Lyadova of ‘People Jew Wanna Know’ (so be sure to head over to her podcast after to listen to our episode). She starts off with her dating update of the week, and quickly gets into the details of growing up in Ukraine before it was fully developed. She talks about the things that really shocked her when her family immigrated to America, like free water everywhere and being able to drink tap water in many places. They then talk about her child stardom in Ukraine and what it was like growing up Jewish there. Margarita then shares the importance of how to treat immigrants and help them retain their dignity. Marla then inquires from Margarita to go deeper into what it really means to seek asylum in the U.S. and what the process looks like. They also talk about how Jewish organizations work to help Jews in need within their community even when they’re total strangers. Margarita then gets into the creation of ‘People Jew Wanna Know’ and some of her favorite guests. The trio then gets into the most fun topic of the episode – dating! They then end witha game of ‘Cute or Cringe.’
