We are very excited to introduce our new podcast Disloyal. 

Disloyal is a podcast about art, culture, and history from the JMM, and uses our exhibits, programs and collections as launchpads for talking about the political, cultural, and spiritual trends that are shaping the world today through a distinctively Jewish lens.

The podcast title, Disloyal, is a response to the antisemitic trope that holds that Jews are disloyal, especially to the state, and a response to how social, religious, and political issues are often understood in terms of loyalty and disloyalty within Jewish communities. 

The podcast asks: What does it mean to be loyal or disloyal, to a people, to a state, to an idea, to an artistic practice, to a family, to a political commitment?

The podcast is hosted by Mark Gunnery, Director of Communications and Content for the JMM, with production assistance from Naomi Weintraub, JMM’s Community Artist-in-Residence.

Below is the trailer plus the first six episodes of Disloyal.
