Here Come the Hanukkah Videos: How to Eat Donuts

It may seem early, but we know that Chanukah is only two weeks away. So we're starting this year's crop of Hanukkah videos today, and from now through Chanukah we'll be posting what we consider to be the best videos of the season.

On Time Studios is a Brooklyn-based video production company that has released a collection of short skits and commercials that features Chassidic actors and comics and is designed to appeal to a frum audience. Here is one of their short films in the Hanukkah spirit that focuses on one of the favorite fried foods served on this holiday...Donuts!

Enjoy!

Black Hat Humor in Boro Park, Brooklyn: The Hatzolah Doctor Makes His Rounds

The Haredi (Ultra Orthodox) community of Brooklyn is well served by Hatzolah, a local volunteer Emergency Medical Service (EMS) organization.

Hatzolah/Hatzalah ("rescue" or "relief" in Hebrew: הצלה‎) serves mostly Jewish communities around the world. Most local branches operate independently of each other, but use the common name. The Hebrew spelling of the name is always the same, but there are many variations in transliteration, such as Hatzolah, Hatzoloh, Hatzalah, and Hatzola.

But even something as serious as medical assistance can have its funny moments, especially in the hands of a production company like On Time Studios, which uses humor to promote local Orthodox services and businesses.

In this clip (The Doctor) we follow a Hatzolah doctor as he puts some unconventional implements into his black doctor's bag and makes his rounds on a scooter that he uses to visit patients in his community.

Enjoy!
