84. Yeshiva Education Failure (with Manny Vogel) - a podcast by Jewfolk, Inc.

This week: A New York Times investigation has all the Jews talking about education in hasidic yeshiva schools — specifically, about the poor secular education in subjects like English and Math. So I speak with Manny Vogel, who grew up attending a hasidic yeshiva in New York City, about his experience and thoughts on the issue.
