Breaking News: The Daily Brine

Breaking News: The Daily Brine will be a biweekly series of 1-to-2-minute comedic videos about Jewish and Israeli culture and current events in the form of a satirical newscast. We plan to build solidarity within the Jewish community and expose hypocrisy from outside of it using the Jewish superpower – humor.
