 There’s no storyteller like Rabbi Bob Alper, the world’s only full-time stand-up comic and practicing rabbi. His stories are heard daily on the Sirius/XM clean comedy channel. His new book features 32 true stories from settings as far flung as The Tonight Show studio, the hills of Vermont, and a tiny Polish village. Readers meet a stained-glass artist whose granddaughter is Drew Barrymore, a woman who attends services with her dog, and a 5-year-old grief counselor. These stories are spiritual gems.

 [“Sure. But this might take a while,” is how Bob Alper responds when the passenger flying next to him asks what he does. He’s a rabbi who earned a doctorate at a Presbyterian seminary, has performed stand-up comedy hundreds of times with Arab comedians, and is heard daily on the Sirius/XM clean comedy channel. Bob is also an author who adores living in rural Vermont with his wife Sherri, a psychotherapist, a pair of affectionate but annoying geriatric cats, and Barney, a loveable rescue dog from Puerto Rico who ignores commands in both English and Spanish. Bob’s unique experiences, from leading large congregations to performing stand-up at Toronto’s “Muslimfest,” make for a wealth of gentle stories that touch people of all backgrounds with warmth, humor, and wisdom.
