What if making people laugh is every bit as sacred as leading a congregation?In this episode, I’m joined by Rabbi Bob Alper, stand-up comic, bestselling author, and the only rabbi whose comedy bits air on SiriusXM between Bob Newhart and Jerry Seinfeld. He served congregations for 14 years, holds a doctorate from Princeton Theological Seminary, and has spent 35 years proving that clean, intelligent humor can heal.In this conversation we talk about: How a logical career choice became a life of serving people. First, as a rabbi, then as a comedian. Why he calls making people laugh his true rabbinate. The power of storytelling in sermons, funerals, and everyday life. How laughter can be holy, even in grief, through illness, and the hardest seasons of our lives. This is a warm, funny, deeply human conversation about dignity, forgiveness, and the gift of helping someone forget they are sick for an hour and a half.Tune in now and get a good laugh!S‍how Notes:https://bobalper.com/https://www.youtube.com/@bobalper1https://www.instagram.com/bobalper/https://www.tiktok.com/@comedian1818Check out Bob’s Books
