Join Jewish Comedians Rachel Creeger & Philip Simon for their comedy podcast, a chat show about all things Jewish, produced by Russell Balkind. This week we're putting out a sort of holding episode reflecting on life as a British Jew since the terrorist attacks of 7th October in which over 1200 Israelis were killed and more than 200 hostages taken by Hamas. It's the day that marked the start of a conflict that has claimed thousands of innocent lives, and affected Jewish people around the world.

We aren't political, that's never what the show was meant to be, but we are a podcast that explores Judaism and our relationship with everything associated with that. This episode marks where we are 100 days on from that atrocious day in which, for so many people, everything changed.

In January 2019, Russ joined forces with Howard Jameson on Women’s Radio Station and to create Men’s Radio Station.  These revolutionary global internet radio stations aim to provide a non-judgmental space  in which men and women can ‘Really Talk’.

His first novel,  ‘The Gate Keeper’ - a dark tale of good vs evil, redemption, sacrifice and Jack Daniels, was published in Spring 2019, to rave reviews.  The second novel is currently under-way.
