Show Notes
Today’s Talmud pages, Bava Kama 36 and 37, tells the story of Hanan, a wicked man who is punished for slapping someone. When no one will make change when he comes to pay restitution, he goes ahead and hits the person again so that no change would be necessary. Tevi Troy returns to the program to share the stories of some of American politics most “Hanan-like” characters. Is there a time to be like Hanan and times not to? Listen and find out.
