The Times of YISRAEL #1: My best friend
Presenting the first in a new video series by everyone’s favorite Italian-Irish-Catholic-born Orthodox Jewish standup comic
Here’s episode #1 of The Times of YISRAEL, a new video series from the unique mind of comic Yisrael Campbell.
In this episode, Yisrael has made a momentous decision about his facial hair. It doesn’t stop him from eating as he rants to his buddy Gary about preserving the symbol of his dedication to Judaism — just in case his three circumcisions weren’t enough.
Yisrael was born Italian-Irish-Catholic in Philadelphia, but is now a practicing Orthodox Jew based in Jerusalem. He’s performed his critically acclaimed, hilarious, and touching autobiographical one-man show, “Circumcise Me,” off-broadway in New York City as well as all over the world.
