      When Matisyahu, the 32-year-old Chasidic reggae superstar, appeared onstage for the first time since shaving his trademark beard, no one in the audience at the Boulder Theater seemed surprised. Ray and Adam discuss the question of how and why do people turn their back on HaShem.

      Ray and Adam also welcome Rabbi David Katz to the show who gives Noahide Nations listeners a teaching on Where does Shem really come from? Shem was the son of Noah: A righteous Man the son of a righteous Man...But what does the name Noah really mean? And what is the connection with both of the given Blessings within their names? How does Noah and Shem fit into the tapestry of today's world and did they have insight? Find out these answers and more, as Shem introduces us to the origins of Hebrew and Torah.
