You're listening to talk Line with Zev Brenner, America's premier
5:14
Jewish broadcast on the air since nineteen eighty one.
5:17
And now here's your host.
5:22
How we're back. We now present Rabbei li krimsky E,
5:24
spiritual leader of the Little Bee Synagogue, with this week's
5:27
Parsha in verse.
5:28
Parsius Rey Mosha Abeno continues his goodbye monolog, not sure
5:33
if it was in rhyme as I've been doing in this very synagogue. Mosha Abeno, who in by Midbar used
5:39
the imagery of a sick am Israel and he was
5:41
their nurse WARN's been a sorell of the consequences of
5:44
their actions, which will lead to either blessing or curse.
5:48
Mosha then segues into laws pertaining to the land of Israel,
5:51
the country that would elude him. Eretisreel is particularly allergic
5:55
to any form of idolatry, and the land is to
5:58
be sanctified with certain kuki minish.
5:59
But in the.
6:01
Cutchem, the offerings brought on an altar due to gratitude, guilt,
6:04
or sin may only be brought in specific places via
6:08
specific processes facilitated by kohanim arown and his kin. The
6:13
turre describes how non sacrificial meat can be consumed, whether
6:17
a full fledged barbecue buffet like the wandering que or
6:20
just abissle. Thank goodness for this salaha that brings Parnassa
6:25
to glotmart Mikes, bistro and holy Schnitzel. The Torah very
6:29
strongly condemns the consumption of blood. The Toreh commands that
6:33
we are to spill it onto the ground, which means
6:35
we rinse the flesh salted or broil it over fire,
6:38
whether foul or an animal that showed its cut. When
6:42
Amrauel entered the promised land there to stay away from
6:44
the practices of the natives who worship the skies and
6:47
the tree and the rock. Succumbing to such peer pressure
6:50
would be an abomination.
6:51
In a shem, it would mock.
6:54
The Tore presents three individuals who must be avoided, the
6:57
false prophet, the seducer towards idolatry, and the city in
7:00
Israel where a majority of its inhabitants worship idols, the
7:04
Irani Dahas. These prohibitions are very severe on the individual, or,
7:09
if worse, if committed on mass. The Kosher laws are
7:13
now repeated. The laws permitting the consumption of insects, fish, fowl,
7:17
and flesh are now heard. Chewing cuds, split hoofs and
7:20
for the meat, scales and fins for the fish, and
7:23
a strong masoa pertaining to the bird. The Tore mandates
7:27
that we are generous and charitable with our wealth. We
7:30
have several categories of charity. Aiding others in need is
7:33
a most fundamental principle and will certainly be good for
7:36
our physical and spiritual health. Myersheni are. Money is brought
7:40
to Rushalayim and spent there, so our ruhnius can thrive.
7:44
These tithes are given in years one, two, four, and five.
7:48
In years three and six, the miser tithe is given
7:51
to those who are poor. We are always to be
7:54
sensitive to the indigen especially if they come knocking on
7:57
our door. The Tora requires us to forgive loans we
8:01
made to poor people. Come the seventh year today, when
8:04
the laws of Schmita are rabbinic in nature, Hillel directs
8:07
us to sign a prisible which make sure we will
8:10
not hesitate to give interest free loans to each poverty
8:13
stricken peer. Although Lincoln freed the slaves, and the institution
8:17
no longer exists when it did. When the slaves finish
8:20
their indentured time, they would depart with material need and
8:23
lavish gifts. Mosha then describes the special sanctity of the
8:28
first born among the animals and the beast. They are special,
8:31
can't be worked too hard, and it must be brought
8:34
to the altar by a cohen a priest. The Tore
8:37
that famously describes the rituals associated with the three pilgrimage festivals.
8:42
The showers regull him. The Tore describes pay second Chivuis
8:46
and reminds us again to assure that we take care
8:48
of the Jewish poor.
8:49
The aneem.
8:51
Finally, the torreh reminds us about Tsukis, the festival of
8:54
booths under the stars. We are to be joyous and
8:57
to make sure that Jews who may not be as happy,
8:59
cele rate as well, looking for inner and spiritual pleasure,
9:03
not material delight such as gifts or fancy cars. The
9:07
Aftara for has y Shaia talking about Messianic times. Wealth
9:11
will be spiritual and bliss will be approaching God as
9:14
each Jew ascends towards God, step by step as he climbs.
9:18
And we're back. I heard his name for so many years.
9:21
Peter Himmelman. He's such a creative genius. Never had the
9:24
opportunity the privilege of interviewing until this broadcast. Now so
9:28
very pleased that Peter Himmelman joins us. He's a Grammy,
9:31
Emmy Award nominated rock and roll performers, songwrise of film composer,
9:35
Visual Artists Award winning author. He has been profiled in
9:38
the Rolling Stone Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine. He's an
9:41
Orthodox Jew, He's so proud of that. And he also
9:45
has worked with many different universities and foundation including including
9:48
Foundation for Justice, University of Pennsylvania, etc. Peter, welcome to
9:51
the program. Thank you for joining us.
9:53
Thank you, Zella bit a fan as I said off
9:56
camera for many years, it's great.
9:58
To be here.
9:59
Thank you. What's your Hebrew name? By the way, Mordecai?
10:03
How come you don't go on the road pass of Mordechai?
10:06
You know, I'm telling you.
10:07
I never gave it serious thought until recently.
10:11
It's a beautiful name, Passi mortale it is.
10:14
I love the name.
10:15
And when people call me Pisu Mordecai, there's a select.
10:17
Few that do.
10:21
It touches me in a in a deeper place than
10:25
Peter Himmel, you know, my normal name.
10:28
It's like a very intimate kind of call out to me.
10:32
Now you're in your book is called Suspended by No Strings,
10:35
a songwriter's reflection on faith, aliveness and wonder. You know
10:39
you're right about it in your book? Why isn't God
10:41
on the cover?
10:44
Uh?
10:44
Because there were many renderings of God, but they didn't
10:49
look right for me.
10:51
Some of them had him hanging on a wooden thing.
10:54
At some point I didn't think it was right for me.
10:57
It didn't cross your mind, didn't cross it but you
11:00
felt that God would be controversial in today's day and
11:02
age se him on the cover.
11:04
You're talking about the word God the work.
11:06
In other words, your book is God spirituality, about faith.
11:10
But yeah, I didn't think it would be controversial. The
11:15
book isn't designed to do anything. I had written a
11:20
book about creativity in twenty seventeen, which.
11:24
Had a purpose.
11:25
It was about how to take an idea, Nason idea
11:27
and make it manifest.
11:29
This book does not have a purpose.
11:32
You'd ask, well, what's the purpose of one of your songs?
11:36
It's hard to say. It hopefully abuse a certain feeling.
11:40
But I wanted to make sure that the word God.
11:44
And this is I've heard from my friend sim and Jacobson,
11:47
whom I know. He says, Look, in one of my classes,
11:53
somebody finally asked me after a year, are you talking
11:56
about God here?
11:58
He used all sorts of youths.
12:00
I forget what they were, because yes I am, but
12:03
don't tell the others. In other words, there's a caveat
12:06
at the beginning of the book, very at the very beginning.
12:10
Why in a book.
12:11
About faith and that I had to discern whether to
12:16
use the word God, because for so many people. It's
12:19
kind of a loaded term. It's not a holy word,
12:22
it's an English word. So I do wind up, of
12:27
course in the end, using God.
12:28
All through the book. But I had to have a
12:30
setup for people.
12:33
In my mill u.
12:34
For example, I grew up conservative in Minnesota, which meant
12:38
we had my mom would occasionally light shabas candles.
12:42
We were very Jewishly identified.
12:46
But if I had started talking.
12:48
About God at any point as a young man or
12:52
a child, I'm I'm pretty sure my mom, in trying
12:58
to be helpful, would have taken me to a psychologist.
13:02
It just wasn't part of what we knew. What we
13:06
had implicitly imbibed, was that the world was based on
13:12
random forces, the Big Bank.
13:16
God. It wasn't for us.
13:19
So even though the lishapascandals, I assume you went synagogue
13:23
Russia Shana yam kipper, I.
13:25
Went to Hebrew school. I learned how to speak Hebrew.
13:28
I went to Israel when I was eight years old.
13:31
That was literally one year after the Six Day War.
13:36
I write about that a little bit in the book.
13:39
I guess my return to observant Judaism wasn't about something novel.
13:46
It was about returning to something that I.
13:49
Always understood or intuited, that there's a creative force, however
13:53
you wanted to find it with a capital F. That is, literally,
13:57
the essence of creativity is creating everything, according to Hasidis,
14:01
at every moment, recreating everything.
14:04
So let me get personal. Your rock and roll and
14:07
rock and performer, writer, songwriter not really known for being
14:11
a place for religion. So how did you connect to Judaism?
14:16
I have to take some issue with what you're saying before.
14:19
Yeah, I mean, I'm.
14:21
Always let me put that orthodox Judaism.
14:24
Well, I mean, I understand the tropes about rock and
14:27
roll and the hedonism and all this stuff, but that
14:31
probably goes on it just as much.
14:34
With real estate brokers. You know, at these conventions.
14:38
What I have found about musicians of all sorts, rock musicians,
14:43
jazz musicians, and I play with musicians from all over
14:46
the country, all over the world, different faith, different hues,
14:51
different points of view. The idea of there being a
14:55
creative force again, if you want to use another buphemism
14:59
for God, odd is second nature to most most musicians.
15:04
They understand from whence their abilities arrive. The best musicians
15:11
are very soulful, spiritual people. I see a guy that
15:16
sits down on a drum set, for example, the way
15:19
that he touches his sticks, I already know how he's
15:23
going to play, how well he's going to play or
15:28
not well.
15:29
But the ones that are really expert have this.
15:33
Duality about them, which is one this kind of hubristic
15:38
elitist like.
15:39
Man, you know, I understands, you know.
15:42
And the other side is a humility of understanding that
15:48
their ability to move people to work with this non
15:53
temporal force which is music, it's it's essentially spiritual. They
15:58
understand that it derives from a higher source than they
16:02
themselves can conjured.
16:04
So let me pace up, Mornechai, So let me ask you this what made you this side? You were a conservative, Yeah,
16:10
your parents didn't really even though you went to Israel.
16:13
You had a strong Jewish identity, but you weren't observing
16:16
what happened thirty some years ago that you said, I
16:20
want to be orthodox. I'm going to keep kosher, even
16:23
though it's not easy being on the road traveling finding
16:25
kosher food in the community.
16:28
It's pretty I mean, it's a simple.
16:30
Answer, so it's not going to be too abstract and
16:32
sim and Jacobson. What I've mentioned already three times had
16:36
so much to do with it. The first stage was
16:40
when I was to day after I turned twenty four,
16:43
my dad, who was.
16:45
A heroic figure to me, died of lymphoma. He was
16:49
fifty four. I was twenty four the next day.
16:53
So I was always already in a very propitious place
16:57
to think about things.
16:59
Where does the spear it go?
17:00
And I was always that kind of thinker, even amongst
17:04
my hedonistic activities. So a year after he died, I
17:09
moved with my rock band out to New York. I
17:12
got a record deal on Island Records. All of a sudden,
17:14
I had all this money. I was in the Rolling Stone.
17:17
I was everything that I ever dreamed of. But I
17:21
couldn't stop thinking about my dad and things of higher
17:25
values and purposes.
17:27
So I don't know if you've ever heard of Kenny Vance.
17:30
Sure, so he is.
17:32
He is?
17:33
He blacks No Kenny Vance with MTV. I'm trying to remember.
17:40
I remember, No, you've heard his name before because he
17:44
was an original singer in Jay and the Americans, and
17:48
he was the one who was producing some demos with me.
17:53
He was old at the time.
17:55
Was he actually produced the show. Is he Lifshitz if
17:57
you yeah, yeah, he did. He was Friday Night Live
18:01
or Saturday Night something like.
18:03
Well, he was the music director for Saturday Night Live,
18:08
one of the original music you know, producers for that show.
18:12
He was in Woody Allen Movies. He used to date
18:15
Diane Keaton, which he told me about. He says, like this,
18:19
he was he was sent to the Ritz where we
18:22
were playing. An attorney sent him down there to give
18:26
us feedback on our show. And he came back into
18:29
the dressing room and he's like he's tall and sort
18:33
of you know, ectomorphic like I am, and kind of gangly.
18:37
He's handsome. And he came and he's this old guy.
18:40
He was forty years old, you know, we were twenty five.
18:44
And he goes, I don't really.
18:47
Know what to tell you about what I just saw.
18:50
I'm like, here's what you have to say.
18:53
But I instantly liked him and we became friendly and
18:57
he said, look, he mentioned Diane Keaton. He goes, but tonight,
19:01
I'm going to take you to my main connection, a
19:05
religious Jew in Brooklyn. Thinking that I would be averse
19:09
to doing something like that, but I was like Jewish,
19:13
my dad had just died.
19:14
I'm totally in So we crossed the Brooklyn Bridge.
19:18
He drives me in his car and we get to
19:21
Simmons Helves and this was this was thirty eight years
19:25
ago or something. Simmons beard was black and I greet
19:30
him at the door, and I already like Simmon, just
19:32
like I already like you. You know, it's sort of like you had this instant either attraction or you're repelled.
19:39
I was attracted to Simon. He hopped, he got it,
19:43
and I love that. Also, what was stunning to me
19:47
was his wife, Shandy was and still is so beautiful,
19:53
and like, what's the deal with this heresuit guy? Not
19:57
exactly spending time at the gym? Did he land this
20:01
type of woman? This is where my mind was at,
20:04
And little did I know that scholarship had a lot
20:08
to do with it, you know, the eugenics program of
20:11
the jew which they can accuse us of. But we
20:15
got to talking, and Simon likes to talk. We both
20:19
are very languorous, and it got too late for Penny.
20:23
He was tired, he was old. He went back to far rockaway. So Simon and I are talking and this
20:27
is the seminal moment where I'd like, I'm in okay,
20:31
this is coming. He starts talking to me about I
20:35
don't know. I asked him, what are these pictures at the Rebbie on the wall. They looked a little cultish
20:40
to me, I said, and Simon was He just was
20:45
going with it. He wasn't defensive in the least. He goes,
20:47
look to me, he's like inspiring grandfather. Yeah, I get inspiration.
20:53
I'm like, makes sense. So then we get deep into it.
20:56
It's like now one and two in the morning. One
21:00
of those conversations. I remember my dad had just died,
21:04
so I was in a mood. My life was in flux.
21:08
I got this giant record deal. He goes, look atsodig
21:13
couldn't do anything. It's sodig. Now I didn't quite understand
21:18
exactly the hasidic nature of what a axodig was. But
21:22
I'm thinking he's not talking about you know, you know
21:25
Bert Boumel, who can get you a deal on a car?
21:29
What a sodig?
21:30
He was talking about something higher. I understood that much.
21:34
The rube that I am.
21:36
He goes, look, asodig can do anything, And I'm looking
21:40
at the Rebbie and I put probably thinks the Rebbi
21:42
is exodig, But I said to him, oh yeah, anything
21:46
can they fly?
21:47
And without him like he.
21:50
Just says to me because he was in a serious mode,
21:52
and this is the sentence that put me over the
21:54
edge and probably won't do anything for anyone else.
21:57
It was only for me.
22:00
Look with Sadig, what's the difference of the flying thirty
22:05
forty fifty feet above the surface of the ground or
22:07
walking on the surface. What's the difference? And that to
22:12
me harken back to everything I felt about life and reality.
22:20
What is the difference?
22:21
How can you say that talking to Zev Brenner right
22:24
now is a mundane experience, or drinking tea or anything.
22:31
I said?
22:31
Is that what Judaism is about finding the miraculous nature
22:37
of existence and being astute and aware of it.
22:41
Basically, that's it. I went out and got a talless cotton.
22:44
The next day, I had a beautiful girlfriend who was
22:49
not Jewish, who was a dancer and a model, and
22:52
somebody that was really close to and that was the
22:57
end of all my romantic relationships.
23:00
There right after that night you just said, I.
23:02
Mean seriously, that was like it gave me permission because
23:08
it connected not with something that was.
23:11
External to me, but was internal to me. It was
23:16
something that spoke to something essential about me and all
23:20
the concubines everything. I sort of said to myself, to
23:24
no one else. The next woman I'm with, I'm I'm
23:28
going to be married to. That's a huge step.
23:33
And did that happen?
23:35
Yeah?
23:36
Our guest is actually his real name is Paso Mordeca,
23:39

You're listening to Talkline with Zev Brenner, America's premier Jewish
27:26
broadcast on the air since nineteen eighty.
27:28
One, and now here's your host.
27:33
Our guest is actually his real name is Paser Morca,
27:36
even though he uses his named Peter Himmelman. He's a legend.
27:40
He's a Grammy and Emmy Award nominated rock and roll performers, songwriter,
27:44
film composer, visual artist, award winning author. He's been profiled
27:47
at major publications. He's the son in law of the
27:50
famous Bob Dylan, but he's a man in his own right,
27:53
and his fascinating new book is called Suspended by No String,
27:57
a songwriter's reflections on faithful, liveness and wonder Bob Dylan.
28:02
People always one wonder is he religious? Not religious? Right?
28:06
Doesn't that the kwandary? Don't you get that question all
28:08
the time?
28:09
Well, you know that I've gotten this question for years, decades,
28:12
So you're you're gonna see the skillful art of evasion
28:16
right now. I'm very transparent that I'm going to do it.
28:19
I do get asked all sorts of questions, and I've
28:23
been evading the question for years, mostly because the commandment
28:28
to honor your parents holockically also goes to your share
28:33
you know, father, and I know that he's very you know,
28:37
he's private, so like you could ask me how his
28:41
music influenced me and things like that, I'd.
28:44
Be happy to talk about it.
28:45
Do you ever perform together?
28:47
Only once?
28:48
On a Kabbad telethon years and years ago?
28:51
Are the one in California?
28:52
Mm hmm.
28:54
By the way, do you ever get together thing shaba is mirrors together?
28:58
It hasn't happened yet.
29:00
Well, I pray that it does. That'd be a very
29:02
interesting experience. So, you know, because he's a legendary, but
29:07
you're legendary too in your own right.
29:10
So did his legendary in your own mind?
29:14
No?
29:14
No, no, listen, you're you're out there, you're and you
29:17
make a Kiddish er cheman sactification in Guard's name. I
29:19
are so profiles of you when you're on the road
29:21
and you insist on keeping kosher is not always easy
29:24
finding kosher. For today, it's better than it was thirty
29:27
years ago, for sure. Yeah, what's beening? Ther biggest challenge
29:29
being Orthodox and being in the rock and roll world.
29:32
The fact that I have to really think about it
29:34
is a good sign. Somebody asked me recently, you know, so,
29:39
how did that affect your career not playing.
29:42
There was certain tours.
29:43
That we had to turn You turned down the Tonight Show three times, right, Yeah, that's right, because it was
29:47
on Friday night, and you said, I don't do TV on Friday night.
29:50
One was on circus, I don't do that, but one,
29:53
you know, we eventually played the Tonight Show on another
29:56
night and eventually played Letterman and other things. The thing
30:00
made rock career difficult, and this is tangential of course
30:05
to Judaism was when my first child, who is now
30:09
thirty four or thirty five years old, Isaac Brilliant son
30:13
of mine, was born. I was on the road for
30:17
two hundred and thirty nights and that was not sustainable.
30:22
And a record company just wants you to you know,
30:24
I'm a good live performer. That was the best marketing
30:27
that they could have. But it's like I used to
30:30
send my manager into the label to find out how
30:33
little I could play before they shut off the tap.
30:36
Most of the managers are going in wanting tour support
30:39
and everything else. It just wasn't a sustainable life for me.
30:42
And the downside of it is the crowds that I
30:46
draw are much less now because I'm not doing the tour,
30:52
and with every everything that we do, because we find
30:56
it right and just and moral, there often is a
31:01
price for it.
31:02
It's not it doesn't.
31:03
Some of these things don't come cheaply.
31:05
So I go into a venue and there's two hundred
31:08
and fifty people instead of twenty five hundred.
31:10
It doesn't go on my joyous side.
31:13
On the other hand, I would never do anything differently.
31:17
I have no regrets whatsoever.
31:19
Do you ever consider going the Habbat circuit or the
31:21
Orthodox circuit and performing including some maybe Hebrew songs or
31:26
combination Hebrew in English and came well? I don't how
31:28
new generation.
31:30
Once in a while somebody will have me come to
31:33
do something, but I don't. I don't sing any Hebrew songs.
31:36
I don't know any although I love hene Montovoman Naim,
31:42
I don't know anyse mirrors. I didn't grow up with it,
31:44
and I mostly just play my songs. But here's my
31:48
ability in a Jewish context forget about in the general
31:52
public what I and I think the book does a
31:55
good job of this too.
31:56
I recognize that I have a very unique place.
32:01
I understand the so called secular world very well. I'm
32:05
in place there. I understand all of it, and I
32:09
also understand very well the so called firm world and
32:15
in terms of people that can bridge those two things.
32:18
This isn't like complimenting myself, but just you know, this
32:21
is providential that had happened this way. I have a
32:25
very unique role to play in connecting people both ways,
32:31
this way and that way.
32:33
Which is important. Then that's why you don't do You
32:35
don't have any heberes. Maybe we can do some blends.
32:38
But I want to go back thirty eight years ago. You meet Rabbi Simon Jacobs and you get turned on
32:42
to Judaism. So what happens? How do you become observant?
32:46
Did you go through a special training yeshivas? Who godded you?
32:50
Help you? I never went through special training for anything.
32:56
I never went to music school.
32:59
I am what they call and sometimes people use this
33:02
derisively and autodidact.
33:04
That's just me. You know.
33:07
I have a lot of mentors and I still do
33:10
and musically and otherwise.
33:12
Simon was certainly one of them. There's a number of
33:15
people that I go to for a lot opinions. I'm
33:20
constantly studying toro with different people. I mean, the mechanics
33:27
of how that worked. So how do you go from one day the.
33:30
One day you're leaving a hitter in your lifestyle. You have a gorgeous girlfriend, as you say, now you become
33:34
observant jew overnight.
33:37
Yes, I mean what happens is, you know, it's very talkless,
33:41
it's very practical.
33:43
So I was apropos of Kenny Vance. I was producing
33:47
a record for him at the time in this little
33:50
studio in New Jersey, the one that I recorded at
33:54
a record which got.
33:55
Me my deal on Island. So Kenny thought we should
33:58
go there.
33:58
There was a Chinese restaurant next to the studio, and
34:03
I thought, well, yeah, I'm gonna just eat vegetarian there.
34:08
I'm going to order a vegetable thing on let's say,
34:10
on Tuesday. On Wednesday, I thought, well, maybe I'll just
34:15
have like rice with soy sauce.
34:18
On Thursday. I didn't eat at.
34:20
The restaurant at all because it wasn't kosher.
34:23
Just like a very quick dive in.
34:27
You.
34:27
Yeah, it wasn't even gradual. It was like a three
34:30
or four day you know.
34:31
I read a little bit about cashued, and it's easy
34:35
to find out even back thirty some years.
34:37
Ago, could you meet Kalba.
34:40
I did, well, that was it. I met the Rebbe.
34:43
I met with him first of all, after like Chavus,
34:47
you go and Koch Shobraja. And he gave me a
34:50
bottle and I didn't know what the bottles is a
34:52
bottle of vodka and all these you know, you know,
34:55
cause cinema coming up. Who's this like us Flamil is
34:59
getting a you know, like, what's his deal? And somebody
35:03
told me that it's it's it's given out to people
35:06
who are public people like yourself.
35:09
You would have gotten.
35:10
About public personalities, yeah, and that you would.
35:13
Go and you would make a little high with people
35:15
that you met on the road and elevate the conversation.
35:21
And you had to get rid of the bottle before pays off, because you can't sell it.
35:26
To somebody, you know, you're going to sell it to a non Jew.
35:29
But I got two or three bottles on two, you know,
35:32
And then I had a after Marie and I were married,
35:35
we had a sort of hate us with the Rebbee
35:38
after he'd stopped doing one on one. This was in
35:43
as he was in Schloshim for his wife who had
35:46
passed away in his house. He met with like three
35:49
different married couples, and I can't really disclose what I
35:55
learned from him from the Rebbe at the time, I
35:59
can only say this about meeting the Rebbie my cousin
36:03
who is a genius musician.
36:06
His name is Jeff Victor. He's one of my best friends.
36:09
He was living with me when we moved to New
36:12
York as a band, and I would constantly say at
36:17
the time, this is like nineteen eighty four or five,
36:21
I said, Jeff, I want you to come with me
36:23
to Crown Heights.
36:25
He was in Ridgewood, New Jersey, and just see what's
36:28
going on there.
36:29
It's just from the sociological point of view, No, no,
36:33
I don't want to go.
36:34
It's he's watching a TV show or something.
36:37
Now, these many years later, he's become from as many
36:42
of my friends have without me, like, so.
36:44
You influenced a lot of your friends behind I didn't
36:47
influence them.
36:48
I didn't, you know, try to demonstratively influenced. But yeah,
36:53
it was, it was. I'm sure there was influence, he
36:55
says to me today or a year ago, I should.
37:00
Have gone, what was it like to meet the Rebbie?
37:04
And if you and I were in private, I would
37:07
use different words to describe the story, but I said
37:09
to him, look, imagine you've just done the most horrible,
37:14
shameful thing and you're feeling like a total worm. Jeff
37:20
and I are like really close. There's nothing we don't share.
37:23
He goes, yeah, I I okay. I said, just get
37:27
into that feeling. The walls of hope are closing in
37:32
on you. He goes, yeah, I get it. You just
37:35
feel terrible about yourself.
37:38
Are you in that mode? He goes yeah.
37:40
Meeting with the Rebbie was the polar opposite of that
37:44
feeling you felt.
37:46
It wasn't so much mystical that you could just put
37:51
it into some kind of weird bucket like it was mystical.
37:54
Here you have a guy who studied at the.
37:57
Sorebone, who spoke within and I'd read some of you know,
38:02
some of his sikhras and things, and you just haven't.
38:05
Also a person who's very old, who's just very clear.
38:09
What did he tell you? Did he tell you something specifically to you that helped guide you?
38:13
Yeah? He did.
38:14
Are you able to share that?
38:16
Well? One of the things he said was are you
38:18
dobbining Minre? I said no. He goes.
38:22
You should start dobvining Minre. I mean, those are things
38:24
that were very concrete.
38:27
When I said my dad was a heroic figure, my
38:30
dad was a rare person. And I'm mentioning my dad
38:34
in the context of the Rebbie. My dad was a
38:38
rare person. And I'm sure you know these kinds of people.
38:41
They're very very rare. Most people are par They.
38:45
Just you know, how's the weather, there's no effect whatsoever.
38:49
On the other hand, there's people who are just so
38:52
malignant that you feel violated in their presence, you feel
38:57
worse for contact. And then on the other hand, there's
39:00
people who just by their presence make you feel better
39:06
that whatever your aspirations for the good are, they become
39:11
approachable for you.
39:13
Your fears and self doubts kind of melt away.
39:17
My dad was like that for me and so many people,
39:21
and the Rebbe had that to, you know, an exponentially
39:25
larger of the fact.
39:27
It's the nature of the essence of that person to
39:30
be able to do that.
39:32
Our guess is pace of Mordecai Ak, Peter Himmelman mor
39:37
Use them are often in fact, I'm going to tell the publisher when they print the book put pace of
39:41
Mordechai in the middle, but he's an award winning nominated
39:46
rock and roll performer, songwriter, film composer, or visual arts legend.
39:50
His new book is Goal Suspended by No String. His
39:52
father in law is Bob Dylan, and he's worked with
39:55
many different foundations, including the Clooney Foundation.

You're listening to talk Line with Zev Brenner, America's premier
45:58
Jewish broadcast on the air since nineteen eighty one.
46:01
And now here's your host.
46:05
Our guest this pace of Mordecai Ak Peter Himmelman. But
46:09
he's an award winning IT nominated rock and roll performer, songwriter,
46:13
film composer, visual arts legend. His new book is called
46:16
Suspended by No String. His father in law is Bob Dylan,
46:19
and he's worked with many different foundations, including the Clooney
46:22
Foundation for Justice. I want to focus on that because
46:25
Amo Clooney is a known anti semi. She worked with
46:29
the National Court of Justice to bring want to bring
46:32
genocide and arrest warrants for Prime Minister be Nentanillo and
46:36
others in Israel. So you've worked with them. So have
46:41
you reached out to mel Clooney and said how disappointed
46:44
you are in her.
46:45
I had no relationship with them whatsoever.
46:48
But at one point you had with the foundation?
46:50
Correct, Well, I worked with them.
46:53
I had a different series of people that I'd worked
46:57
with to go into the book.
46:59
And my uncle, who has been a mentor to me, said.
47:02
You've worked with the United States Army War College, you
47:06
work with three m you work with Adobe, Coca Cola.
47:11
I don't think that those names fit with the tone
47:16
of your book. You've also worked with a Clooney Foundation
47:19
for Justice. I'm like, yeah, okay, so I'll talk about Wharton,
47:24
I'll talk about you know, Northwestern University, and that's what
47:28
I'll put in. After the book went to press and
47:31
there was no rescinding that, what can I tell you
47:34
the new print won't have it?
47:36
Well, then you bring Rod's book Pace of Mordecai in
47:38
the byeline, it's gonna have definitely, definitely will advocate, we'll
47:42
sell some more copies. By the way, I know if
47:45
you're aware, but the books by Jewish authors today are
47:47
being banned in the door is well aware. Has that
47:51
affected your book at all?
47:52
It hasn't affected it so far. Look, I grew up
47:55
in Minneapolis and Saint Louis Park. If you've ever watched
47:58
the Coen Brothers movie, you ever watched.
48:00
Their movies, I wanted to have some Jewish things.
48:03
I mean, one of the movies was a serious Man
48:07
and it's literally written about my town.
48:09
The Coen Brothers were born in my town.
48:13
In my town, there wasn't a week that went by
48:17
in junior high and into high school where somebody didn't go, hey,
48:21
you f and jew. And I had to fight and
48:24
get my nose, punch and punch noses from these people.
48:28
So all I have to say is there's some tough
48:32
Jews out there, and I want to be counted as
48:35
one of them.
48:36
I will never not wear a yarmica in a place.
48:40
It's not going to happen.
48:41
Well, you at an incident in your book before your bar mits You're in a rowboat, and I think some
48:46
man comes out and wants to sink your boat, and
48:48
your father challenges him, and then he actually goes to
48:50
the group of those anti semites insists with them.
48:53
Right, they weren't anti Semites, they were Native Americans, and
48:57
they were scary as hell because my couple my friends
49:00
had gotten beaten up by these people. So my dad
49:03
was an eagle scout and before my bar mitzvoh, he
49:06
took me on a canoe.
49:07
It's this lake called Lake Calhoun.
49:10
And we're canoeing and you could hear in the distance
49:14
there was some sort of bacchanal going on with these
49:17
Native Americans, and I was like, yeah, my dad's never
49:21
going to like go there, that would be scary. But
49:24
he starts rowing canoeing the boat.
49:27
That's if the man's trying to sink your boat, right, Yeah.
49:30
But what happened was this, This is the ethence of
49:34
my dad right here.
49:35
So a guy dove in the water and started swimming
49:39
out to the boat, and I'm sure that my dad
49:41
is going to turn the canoe around, but he doesn't.
49:44
He stirs right into the guy and the guy starts
49:47
hanging on to the gunwale of the boat like the
49:50
edges of the canoe, trying to tip us.
49:53
I'm terrified.
49:55
I turn around and I see my dad laughing.
49:58
He takes the paddle, and not in a frightened.
50:01
Way, but kind of in a way to make fun of this guy, and he smacks him right between the
50:07
shoulders pretty hard, but not hard enough to like.
50:10
And the guy lets go of the boat.
50:13
And all the Native Americans start laughing at this guy
50:16
who'd come to.
50:17
Tip the boat. That these two Jews and one of
50:19
their native water craft were, you know, made a fool
50:23
of their guy. So now we're definitely going to turn around.
50:26
This is too scary.
50:28
My dad steers the boat into the shore with no
50:33
fear whatsoever. They they cordially take the canoe on the shore.
50:40
My Dad's sitting between them all. They pass them a
50:43
you know, a bottle of wine, which he refuses. He's
50:47
talking to them. They respect him, he respects them in
50:52
their way, and they launch us back out into the water.
50:57
And this is this heroic nature of my dad, which
51:01
I'll never forget.
51:03
He had a love for people, and he was an
51:05
ex marine, so he could handle himself in almost any
51:09
situation as well.
51:11
A couple moments left October seventh, How has that changed you?
51:14
Night and day.
51:15
My whole life is literally measured pre and post, and
51:22
it has filled me with the most tremendous anger.
51:27
I've ever felt in my life. But I will say
51:31
that anger is subsumed in the other thing that it's
51:35
done for me.
51:37
It has given me a degree of a havatis ale
51:40
which I've always had, that completely overwhelms the anger. I
51:47
have never felt more octued, more kinship, more love in
51:53
general for people than I have ever felt at any
51:56
point in my life.
51:57
