Toga or Torah - with Rachel Goldberg-Polin

We are less than a week away from the beginning of Hanukkah. Keeping with recent Call me Back tradition, Dan is joined by Rachel Goldberg-Polin to discuss the timeless meaning of the Hanukkah story. What does it say about the conflict Jews face today? Can the few really defeat the many? And why are Jews so obsessed with counting?
