Fantastic
I’m updating my review to say this is not just a podcast but a tremendous contribution to Jewish life. Dovid brings together voices from across the Jewish world (admittedly with an emphasis on Orthodoxy) and has created an incredible platform for in depth conversations about the future of Judaism. So enriching.

A window out- the challenges and the profound strength
This podcast is my Jewish home. I’m constantly throwing around references to it, both to the hosts and guests wisdom and perspectives. I finish each episode feeling inspired, curious, and hopeful, something I don’t take for granted, with new insight into our Jewish community- maybe a given considering the wide range of topics and guest- but also into myself. One criticism is a wish for more representation and acknowledgement of the perspectives and experiences of the other 50 percent.

This interview showed me why I love this podcast so much - it is because I think Rabbi Bashevkin is a deep thinker, discerning, intellectually honest. Rabbi Zakutinsky could learn from him.

5 star substance. Interviewer needs work
These are some of the most important conversations in the Jewish world, and I highly recommend anyone to listen to these. The interviewer, however, does not seem to trust his audience or the people he interviews. When he asks a question, he doesn’t just ask it. He asked it and then proceeds to ask the same question in 16 different ways. If he would only just trust the people he brings on the show that they understand and they can give adequate responses an already amazing podcast would be event better.

Amazing interview with Joshua and Shaindy. Really made me think long and hard about who we want to be.

Really enjoyed the latest interview with Benny Morris
Wow. I am an avid listener and learner of 1840 podcast and I really enjoyed this latest episode, and the new format of 18 questions with 40 different individuals. This allows the listener to gain key insights and perspective from different views and I cannot wait for more. I found the interviewer kept a very experienced and flow-like balance with the questions asked and also knowing when to ask Mr. Morris to elaborate, or to just let him talk on his own. Looking forward to more!

Brings Jews together across our divides
The new ideas, diverse perspectives and truly extraordinary humility and compassion of the host have turned this podcast into one of my must-listens this year. The series on denominations and the one on Zionism taught me so much and are also models of how I hope to be and teach my own students in the world. They are so rich and dense I find myself reviewing the transcripts afterward!

Wonderful show
Thank you for all your thoughtful insights for all of Am Yisrael!

Bringing together Jews from all backgrounds
I started listening to the podcast several years ago but I stopped because I found David the host to be a bit too shmaltzy and ruchani shmuchani! Post October 7 I found myself coming back to the podcast and very much connecting with David and his guests for much needed chizzuk and achdut. I have cried several times overcome by emotion from the stories told by David’s guests. The spiritual content that used to strike me as mawkish, now very much resonate with me, as our world has changed in the last year.

Healthy Fresh Prospective
18Fourty is the most real podcast out there. Dovis is personable, real, sensitive and balanced! However he is not afraid to ask the hard questions. Obviously in a respectful way! My only regret is I wish I had know about this podcast for longer!!!

My go-to podcast to be enlightened
1840 is an excellent podcast- Dbash chooses interesting subjects to interview and he doesn’t fit one mold within Judaism. His intelligence coupled with humor is refreshing.

Outstanding and sensitive,.. going into the Jewish GRAY!
A show that had the guts with sensitivity to go where few Orthodox Jews will go ( today),… to help spread light to those area/topics that need healing today!!

I listen to podcasts all the time, and a friend of mine just sent me one on family estrangement and it was fabulous. Thorough with lots of information but be forewarned, you may cry at the end like I did. Thank you for the advice and thorough information on this topic! -Estee Stein

So glad I was introduced to 1840
I came to the podcast through Aliza Bulow who sent me her interviews with you. I am grateful to be able to listen to such intelligent thoughtful provocative discussions that are open minded , ask hard questions and offer thoughtful responses that widen my knowledge and world. Thank you so much. Looking forward to continued enlightened listening with you, Rabbi Bashevkin

The best Jewish host. Period
Balance the books
So Good It’s Past Words
Every episode gives me a way to reconsider relationships in my life, with others and self and G-d. Unbelievable guests, raw honesty, and faces what others shy away from discussing. So glad this exists.

Bashevkin’s excellent interviews with probing questions and interesting guests makes for an informative and entertaining listening experience. Not your Bubby’s podcast. So good I frequently listen than once.

So Glad I Found This
What a unique and awesome podcast! Rabbi Dovid is an amazing host, asking some really insightful questions and bringing up conversation that is fascinating and informative at the same time. His enthusiasm for his guests and their discussions is infectious. The show also dives in to really unique and wonderful topics. I was recommended the podcast by two different people in the same day which is what prompted me to listen to it and now I’m hooked as well.

Was not familiar with this podcast until tonight. April 2022 podcast was recommended. Blew me away. Rabbi Larry Rothwachs and Tzipora have an amazing story to tell. But I was very impressed with the interviewer, himself, who did an amazing job. I subscribed.

Innovative Intersectionality
It takes true creative boldness and courage to create a podcast that meets at the intersection of Judaism and the modern world/academia/any topic ever. The nuance in this podcast is on a top tier level like I’ve never seen before. As a common consumer of Jewish podcasts, this one satisfies my intellectual and emotional desires that I constantly look for in my podcast consumption, which I often find to be lacking in modern discourse. And, of course, it always gives me something to tweet about. THANK YOU!

D bash does it again! Dovid has a way of bridging worlds and using different platforms to bring out the wide gamut of Torah ideas and Jewish living. I am excited for other projects he has in store for the frum community. Chazak vematz!

Best podcast out there
I cannot recommend this podcast enough!! R. Bashevkin provides an amazing resource for Jewish thought, philosophy and dialogue that is incredibly thought provoking. I really enjoyed the episodes with R Judah Mischel, Leah Forster and Zohar Atkins. This podcast has genuinely provided so much more depth to my spiritual and philosophical Judaism and has truly enhanced my daily commutes :). Each episode gets straight to the point and wastes no time providing knowledge to the listener. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great podcast!
I love this podcast. I am constantly impressed by Bashevkin’s knowledge, intelligence and big-hearted respect for his interlocutors. I learn something whoever I listen and would even go as far as to say I come away a better person.

How can you give legitimacy to people who are off the derech and support and hope for people to do the same. I used to respect David Bashevkin and his work but after hearing some of these podcasts it’s disturbing how he could go ahead and preach about his religion and then show his support who forfeit it.
