S4E4: As Long as the Sun is Shining on Friday (Shabbat 1:7-8)

Beit Shammai and Beit Hillel continue their fundamental disagreement about what you can do Friday afternoon by discussing when you have to stop engaging in business with non-Jews on Shabbat. Beit Shammai say you have to finish with them early enough that they can complete the melacha before Shabbat. Beit Hillel says you just have to finish with them before Shabbat. You can find these mishnas here. Aside from the teaser, this is our shortest episode yet!  Today's the day!
