Today’s Talmud page, Nedarim 28, brings up an interesting question: What to do with vows taken under duress? Shakespeare scholar Dr. Shaina Trapedo joins us to explain how this very point lies at the heart of The Merchant of Venice, and how it makes the Bard's play deeper. Why did a recent theater production include the text to the seminal Yom Kippur prayer, Kol Nidrei? Listen and find out. Take One is a Tablet Studios production. The show is hosted by Liel Leibovitz, and is produced and edited by Darone Ruskay and Quinn Waller. Our team also includes Stephanie Butnick, Josh Kross, Mark Oppenheimer, Sara Fredman Aeder, Robert Scaramuccia, and Tanya Singer.  Check out all of Tablet’s podcasts at tabletmag.com/podcasts.
