Description

In the mid 19th century, “Nasology'' emerged, a pseudoscientific belief that claimed that you could tell a person's personality type by the shape of their nose. Dr. Eddy Portnoy and Dr. Tony Michels get into the nitty gritty of the satirical origins of Nasology, its impact on the Jewish community, and what exactly the deal is with the stereotypical “Jewish shnozz.” Plus Jewish beauty queens, miraculous beauty products, and Tony Michels’ 7th grade yearbook superlative. The Jewish Bizarre is produced by Reboot, an arts and culture non-profit that reimagines and reinforces Jewish thought and traditions. As a premier research and development platform for the Jewish world, Reboot catalyzes its network of preeminent creators, artists, entrepreneurs and activists to produce experiences and products that evolve the Jewish conversation and transform society. This podcast is supported by a generous grant from the Covenant Foundation. Learn more about Reboot and get involved:▼Website: https://rebooting.com/ ▼Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rebootjewish/▼Twitter: https://twitter.com/reboot▼Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Rebooters/▼TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rebooters ▼Newsletter: https://rebooting.com/get-involved/▼YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@rebootjewish
