Alex Clare – Double-Platinum Frum Performer | Ami's House Episode 13
In 2011, Alex wrote a #1 song that changed his life and changed the world of Jewish music along with it when he became an publicly observant Jew. That song went double-platinum and today Alex nearly 300-million streams on Spotify and 100k subs on YouTube.
He also did a Tiny Desk Concert... so, he's the real deal.
We dug deep into the myth of "Alex Clare," how his music has evolved since "Too Close," how it feels to get uber famous, working with Rick Rubin, and the evolving state of Jewish music .
Check out Alex on Spotify

Ben Younger – Writer/Director of the Iconic Movie "Boiler Room" | Ami's House Episode 12
Ben is the writer/director of the films Boiler Room (2000), Prime (2006), and Bleed For This (2016) starring Miles Teller. Most recently he was the Exec Producer for the ABC show The Company You Keep and has written/directed several episodes for Snowfall on FX, among many other projects.
Boiler Room was iconic for many reasons, the biggest one being that 20+ years later it holds up as well as it did when it premiered at Sundance and helped launch Vin Diesel’s career and cement Ben Affleck as a serious actor. Ben has been a huge inspiration for us for us as Jewish creators, and to Mike specifically for portraying Jews on film. It was a thrill to sit down and discuss creativity, Hollywood, and his recent missions to Israel post-October 7th.
