Daily Mishna by Jack Doueck

This podcast, entitled, “Daily Mishna” is a spin-off of a WhatsApp Chat where I teach one Mishna a day in a voice note that the participants listen to on their way to work or wherever and whenever they prefer. It isn't every single day of the week, and it covers only Mishnayot that I personally find to be especially stimulating. You do not need to know Hebrew to listen and you do not need to have learned Mishna before. The Mishna is the basis of the entire oral tradition of Judaism. Each Mishna lesson usually takes between 3 minutes and 9 minutes with exceptions.Enjoy!
