Hi! I'm Stephanie Butnick, a writer, podcaster, and Jewish culture obsessive. I recently launched GOLDA, a Jewish lifestyle newsletter featuring curated gift guides, holiday hotlines, Jewish FAQs, and more. It's everything you need to live Jewishly today. ​​

​​​

I founded and hosted the hit Tablet podcast Unorthodox, which ran from 2015-2024. My co-hosts and I also  published The Newish Jewish Encyclopedia: From Abraham to Zabar’s and Everything in Between.​

 

I've moderated events for The Jewish Museum, the Museum of Jewish Heritage, the Temple Emanu-El Streicker Center, the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History, and elsewhere. I also travel to communities around the country to share my unique insights into contemporary Jewish life. (I'd love to come to yours—see below for booking info.) ​​​​
