Podcaster Jonah Platt On Sharing A Personal Trainer With Justin Baldoni, His Dad Producing The Movie ‘Wicked,’ And His ‘Being Jewish’ Pod. Wednesday, February 5th, 2025 | Sarah Fraser

In this episode, I had an engaging conversation with Jonah Platt, who comes from a prominent Hollywood family and has made his own mark in the entertainment industry. We talked about his experiences on Broadway, including his role in "Wicked," and his family's involvement in the production. Jonah also shared his journey into podcasting with his show "Being Jewish," which he launched to address Jewish identity and issues, especially in light of recent events in Israel. We touched on the challenges of anti-Semitism, the importance of advocacy, and the impact of political changes. On a personal note, Jonah opened up about his wife's MS diagnosis, their IVF journey, and their decision to use a surrogate for their third child. The episode was a mix of Hollywood insights, personal stories, and meaningful discussions about activism and identity.
