Who Is History's Toughest Jew?

I'm not sure how this question came up, but it did, and I just recorded a 2-hour podcast running down a "Who’s Jew" in the historically badass Hebrew department. 

Who do you think should be on the list...

Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax for refusing to pitch on Yom Kippur?

Nope. 

Try Hank Greenberg instead… He refused to play on the highest of Holy Days 30 years before Koufax, and he fought in World War II even though he had several ways to get out of it.

Maybe Macho Man Randy Savage (half-Jewish)?

Actually, "OHHHH NOOOO!"… When Randy Poffo changed his name to Randy Savage, he erased all traces of his partial Jewish heritage. 

So try Bill Goldberg, son of a Jewish violinist mom and equally Jewish OB-GYN dad, who dropped the “Bill” from his name to make himself sound even more Jewish with just "Goldberg."

Maybe Max Baer, who beat the shit out of Hitler’s favorite boxer (Max Schmelling) while wearing a Star of David on his trunks in front of a sold-out crowd at Yankee Stadium in 1933?

Wrong yet again!… You’re fucking terrible at this. 

Try boxer Harry Haft who had to fight for his life in the boxing ring over 70 times while a prisoner at Auschwitz.

Switching gears… How about Joanna Angel?

Well, you might be right there… Joanna is known as being the first mainstream pornstar to come from an Orthodox Jewish home, and went on to star in Jews Love Black Cock in  2017.

But also consider Abella Danger, a Ukrainian Jew who remains one of the most popular adult actresses in the world and is still actively accommodating dicks of all shapes, colors, and sizes.

I can go on and on, and I do go on and on about the toughest Jews you may or may not have heard of on this latest episode of Twisted History… Please give it a listen and take a report.
