Welcome.
Hi! I’m Clarissa and I’m fascinated by Jewish identity.
Jewish identity is complicated and diverse. Through this podcast, we’ll explore it all.
I’m so glad to have you.
Sometimes we go broad, sometimes we go deep, exploring the history, politics, culture, and nuance that impacts our individual and collective Jewish identities.
We’ll hear from experts, academics, scientists, artists, creatives and thought leaders - sometimes it’s heavy.... sometimes it’s light.
In every episode, my goal is to explore one aspect of the multi-faceted 3000 years of global Jewish history and how that shows up for us today.
Whether you were born Jewish and have been sorting through your heritage from day one, or you’ve joined us through family or conversion, and are making your way through, you are welcome here.
*On Wandering is the evolution of my original podcast titled, Rootless Cosmos. The new name reflects my commitment to the journey we’ll take together and the exploration of what we find.
