Rosh Hashanah 26: The Shofar as Defense Attorney

Talking Talmud - A podcast by Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

Plus, a lot of word play and puzzlement regarding unusual terms that are then defined by R. Yehudah HaNasi's maidservant. Also, the different types of shofar used at different times of year - from different animals. And chatzotzrot vs. shofarot.
