Jew TV: Ready or not, here it comes! And not just TV made or acted by Jews, but TV that broadcasts Judaism... I don't know if it runs in DC, but Rabbi Irwin Kula's program on PBS, titled "Simple Wisdom," is bringing Jewish values to a mass audience -- and more than just in the generic judeochristian sense.

Kula: “The whole goal is to bring Jewish wisdom to the public square without it being about Jewish identity and building Jewish identity... I had to grapple with how does this wisdom help us be human, as opposed to Jewish.”
