The Canadian Jewish Shmooze

Howard Shore is a three-time Oscar- and Golden Globe–winning composer whose credits include The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Saturday Night Live, most films by David Cronenberg and several by Martin Scorsese, plus Seven, Ed Wood, That Thing You Do! and The Silence of the Lambs. Michael speaks the legendary Canadian Jewish composer about his modest upbringing in and around Toronto, while Alex breaks down his own recent trip to Israel, where he met with residents across the political divide as part of a trip called Kaleidoscope. Plus: do Jews need to worry about fake cable guys? The Canadian Jewish Shmooze is hosted by Michael Fraiman and Alex Rose, and edited by Michael Fraiman. Our intro music is by Vanya Zhuk, and our outro music is by Latché Swing. Like The CJN Podcast Network on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.
