What does it mean to remember tragedy—and to build something meaningful in its aftermath?

In this episode of Common Faith, Rabbi Elliott Cosgrove and Jon Frankel explore Pittsburgh’s Jewish community and the legacy of the 2018 Tree of Life synagogue attack. Historian Dr. Barbara Burstin reflects on the vibrant Jewish life that has long defined Pittsburgh and the shock the community felt on that tragic day. Then Carole Zawatsky, CEO of Tree of Life, shares the vision for a new memorial and education center that will honor the victims while confronting antisemitism and teaching future generations.

The conversation explores memory, resilience, and how communities can turn moments of darkness into a commitment to learning, unity, and hope.

Passover, Responsibility, and Repair: World Jewish Relief in Action

A rabbi and a journalist walk into… not a bar, not a synagogue, but a SiriusXM podcast studio. Each week, Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove, Senior Rabbi of Park Avenue Synagogue, and Jon Frankel, formerly of Real Sports, will banter, question, and explore the big issues of our day through the lens of Jewish tradition and lived experience. The program is designed to be fun, thoughtful, and engaging—where faith matters, and conversation runs deep.
