Sounds Jewish: June 2008

Welcome to the June edition of Sounds Jewish.

Joining me in the studio this month are journalist Tanya Gold and the former Apprentice semi-finalist and LBC presenter James Max.

I don't know about you but I've been totally hooked on the Apprentice this summer. And the kosher chicken episode with self-proclaimed "good Jewish boy" Michael Sophocles must surely rate as one of the best pieces of television all year. Sir Alan Sugar is probably the most public Jewish figure in Britain at the moment. We ask if he's a good role model for Jews – and even an unwitting sex symbol…..

Plus, DIY Judaism: building an alternative Jewish way of life, not at synagogue but at home. We speak to the young founders of The Moishe House London.

And don't you love having a good old kvetch or whinge? Following on from the global phenomenon of Complaints Choirs and the success of the Birmingham Complaints Choir the JCC is setting up the first ever Kvetch Choir with the help of composer Jonny Berliner. If you've got something you want to get off your chest, then e-mail the JCC and we'll help put your complaints to song. Places in the choir are limited to 20 so booking is essential.

Sounds Jewish is produced in association with the Jewish Community Centre for London.
