    "What is this a crossover episode???" Yes, listeners, it is!

    This week, Esther and Erin are featuring an episode of the Heritage Words podcast, featuring friend of the pod Sarah Benor and Raphael Bob-Waksberg, creator of Bojack Horseman and Long Story Short.

    The bagels spoke to RBW earlier this year about creating the most Jewy show on TV.
