In the October 2023 discussion on Shadal and Ohev Ger, Klein and the host discuss why the facsimile edition of Ohev Ger excluded the introduction. I would suggest (coming out of my doctoral research) that its disappearance reflects Shadal’s change of opinion on the accuracy of his introduction. Through the influence of Shir et al., Shadal later changed his opinion on the origins of Targum Onqelos to a less conservative viewpoint.

Promotional chatter
Way, way, too much promotional chatter.

Excellent
Nachi is a great host and asks the questions the audience would. A great mix of experts and books from the wide world of Jewish scholarship from the yeshivah to the university.

Eclectic Discussions in Traditional and Academic Jewish Scholarship
Nachie’s individual interests lead him to interview a broad range of scholars across the yeshiva and academic world and to discuss topics spanning the millennia. While some controversial topics are clearly avoided, there’s ample material here for the interested layperson of any religious stripe. The interviews and audio quality may not be as polished as that of professional podcasts, but that adds to the charm of the conversations much more than it detracts. An essential listen for anyone interested in contemporary Jewish scholarship as curated by a traditional Orthodox scholar.

Incredible gift for anyone interested in Jewish thought and history
U just discovered this podcast, which features a supremely well-read host interviewing leading scholars on their recent works on Jewish commentary, thought, and history. If any of these topics holds an interest for you, you would do well to check this out. If these topics are of great interest to you, you may find yourself utterly absorbed in it. Great work!

Best For Jewish Bibliography & History
This is the best podcast out there for anyone interested in true Jewish bibliography. Great mix of guests spans the gamut from Orthodox Hareidi to non-Jewish. Nachi makes sure to find the biggest experts in their respective fields and brings their scholarship to the general Orthodox audience.

Sensational
Although this podcast is ostensibly free of charge- be prepared to spend a great deal on many seforim and books that are discussed here. After listening to each excellent episode, it’s hard to resist the urge to go see the literatures with your own eyes…

Superb interviews with outstanding balance of macro and micro Jewish history of communities, movements, Rabbis, halakhah, Kabbalah and core personalities. Fascinating.

Priceless!
Growing up frum and spending 6 years in yeshiva I thought I knew the Jewish world.
Seforimchatter has introduced me to a whole new hemisphere. Jewish Academia is not as secular as it sounds and there are a lot of people out there putting in years of effort discovering things which can really enrich your appreciation of yidishkeit; its history and bringing the rishonim and achorinim you’re familiar with to life.
Outside of history there is also a lot of interesting sforim to hear about that can also enrich your yidishkeit.
Thank you very much Nachi for the amazing work that you do!

Essential Listening!
Excellent interviews on all topics related to Jewish books and history!
Seforim Chatter excels at getting world class scholars to open up and talk freely about their works and area of expertise.
Can not recommend enough!

Love the content - help with sound
I love the content. Invariably an excellent guest and great questions from the host.
The sound is not great - perhaps invest in a better microphone or headset? I’m not an expert, but I listen to a lot of podcasts, and the sound on this one can be better.
Otherwise, it’s an A+. Thank you!

An Eye Opener to this Semi-Secret World of Seforim Phobes
Nachi's questions are really good. He asks the questions that are on everyone's mind and pushes the guest to share their passion, knowledge, and love of seforim. A rare glimpse and what is usually a closed-off world.

Brilliant Series Involving Jewish Texts
The interviews in this series offer entry into the world of Jewish scholarship as Nachi Weinstein plumbs the experience, work and knowledge of leading figures in the realm of Jewish belles lettres. I highly recommend these podcasts.
