Video: The Yuppets Expose a Cult

In an effort to satirize the recent controversies regarding The Call of the Shofar, Yossi Berktin, a Chabad filmmaker and comedian, produced the following video featuring an interview with the leader of The Tent of Avraham, a (fictional) Jewish ‘health and happiness therapy spa.’

    I love it. Great talent. But the puppets shake way too much. Causes major headache. It’s just as cute without the bobbing.

  • funny yet sad, but too true

    the worst part is that some of the “sheeple” are still arguing that there is benefit to this disaster.
    If I mistakenly ate tarfus ch’v, and the taste was definitely pleasing, would that mean that I should not regret having eaten the tarfus? Of course I would have regret and be more careful in the future.
    The fact that some are still staunchly supporting COTS indicates they are victims of this cult. I hope for their sake (and their families) they can be rid of it’s negative effects.

      I think the creator of the video is just demonstrating tha cult leaders like to take people’s money and then spend ot on vacations in nice locations such as Santa Cruz.

    No insult intended. It just sermed like the perfect place becas that’s where a lot of people go to get away from religion and the translation if S Cruz also provided a xtian reference.

    I don;t understand why Jewish shows use Italian classical music for their introductions. Years ago I remember Vivaldi’s “Four Seasons” was all the rage in ads for orthodox demographics. Well I happen to like Tony Vivaldi’s compositions. He had a good ear for rmusic. But did you think that I didn’t know he was an ordained priest? Really!?
