Havdalah Happy Hour (January 10, 2026)

Send us Fan MailThis week’s Havdalah Happy Hour brings together Ben Kreshtool, Jill Suffel, and Cantor Emily Ellentuck for a delightfully nostalgic, winter‑cozy conversation you won’t want to miss.They dive straight into the golden age of 90s mall culture, complete with pay phones, food courts, and the joys of growing up before smartphones ruled the world. There’s a little collective sigh over Ravens football heartbreak, balanced by a whole lot of excitement for Orioles baseball to return and brighten the season.Between sips of Havdalah warmth, the crew chats about quiet winter‑break mornings, the crisp chill in the air, and small joys—like Jill finally getting her journal. Cantor Ellentuck shares the sweetness of welcoming a new puppy, while Ben offers a surprisingly thorough (and very entertaining) breakdown of how to drive.As always, the episode wraps with a heartfelt blessing of the week and a perfectly on‑brand shonda of the week.✨ Tune in, unwind, and enjoy the conversation.
