Christmastime for Jews.
Having been raised as a Presbyterian it’s occasionally surreal when I realize I’m the only Gentile in my immediate household. But, not nearly as surreal as this Robert Smigel claymational nod to the season.
Merry Christmas!

Our blog was messed up when I originally posted this cartoon, so it’s out of sync for January, but it might be the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while. At least if you know any Jews; my mixed marriage family found it hilarious.
Created by Robert Smigel for Saturday Night Live, the creative team also includes director David Brooks, writer Julie Klausner (creator of the very funny Cat News), and my high school bandmate, saxophonist Bruce Kapler.
I promise, we’ll re-post it at the appropriate time next year.

I tried to post this cartoon during the holiday because it might be the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while, but the link had disappeared. So it’s a little late, but it’s just as funny (at least if you know any Jews; my mixed marriage family found it hilarious).
