And as my joke goes, in my documentary I said, “After getting bar mitzvahed, I hardly ever went to temple–unless I wanted some free coffee and Danish.” I discovered that food tastes so much better when nobody’s paying for it.

Meanwhile, the New York Times is reporting that Thomas Jefferson might have been the first Jewish president.
