What a season it’s been on the Bruchim Podcast! Eli and Max debrief the conversations we’ve had with an incredible variety of guests. We cover: hatafat dam brit, including its ethics, lived experience (for good and bad) and future possibilities; the significance of circumcision as a ritual act vs. a bodily state; the medicalization of circumcision and its social and religious impact; what the future looks like for brit milah and other forms of ritual genital cutting; and some of the ethical concepts we’ve tackled this season, including the caution needed for rituals involving children.
