Come see our adaptation of the classic Talmudic story of Hillel and Shammai. What happens when two rabbinical houses clash on opinions? Radical Rabbis! They are radical due to their strong opinions as well as being rad. As retro is in right now, and nothing is more retro than the Talmud, the aesthetics of this app mirror a 80s videogame, complete with 8bit klezmer music.

Radical Rabbis was conceived and created by Josh Yanowitz and Jennifer Panush based on the Talmudic text Eiruvin 13b, and was a project of Studio G-dcast: CJM 2013. The creation of Radical Rabbis was made possible in part by funds granted by the Covenant Foundation. The statements made and the views expressed, however, are solely the responsibility of the app developers.
