Table Talk  is an homage to the rebbe’s tisch (Yiddish for table). There the Hasidic Rebbe would share novel Torah interpretations, and his Hasidim would dance and sing into the night. Many books of Hasidic thought are in fact transcriptions of the sermons and stories delivered around these tables. It was at the tisch that one learned not just how to think or how to study, but how to live Hasidically.

Yet those long tables traditionally had one man seated at the head, spatially signifying a rigid social hierarchy. Our proposed tisch is circular. Table Talk will feature many voices, all sharing a way to live neo-Hasidically — but never the way.
