The Jack Berkovits Show
The Jack Berkovits Show is a daily townhall on everything from Politics, Religion, Cultural Norms, Relationships and everything in between.
Jack is literally a “Jack of all trades” – an orthodox Jew, an ordained Rabbi, a chartered accountant, a social activist and a very successful businessman… But mostly, he is fair and reasonable. He has and will debate issues such as immigration, circumcision, religion… When you lived the life Jack has, he has interviewed the biggest names in the world, including prime ministers and celebrities.
But it’s the daily listener who has Jack’s attention every day. He wants to hear from you, what is keeping you up at night ? Let’s explore the issues to better understand the issues.
Join Jack – Wednesday- Friday 1-3p.
About The Jack Berkovits
The Jack Berkovits SHOW
Jack Berkovits is living the dream. Born in Israel to Holocaust survivors, he arrived in Canada at age 7.
A Chartered Accountant by profession, he elected to go into academia, becoming the youngest ever lecturer at Concordia University in Montreal, at 22 years of age.
The entrepreneurial bug hit and at 25, he acquired a tiny jewellery manufacturing company and in a very short time, turned it into, arguably the largest jewellery company in the world, taking it public on the NASDAQ.
After a very short-lived retirement, Jack founded a small retail jewellery store in 2001. Within four years, Omni Jewelcrafters had grown to become a major Ontario jewellery retail chain, redefining the meaning of value shopping.
Today, Jack spends much of his time guiding the fortunes of his beloved Omni Jewelcrafters, and finds the time to be a regular broadcaster on Sauga 960, hosting the thrice weekly (soon to be daily) Jack Berkovits Show.
After lengthy stints at Toronto’s other talk radio stations, Jack is thrilled to be, as he says it, “at home, where opinions expressed are real, sincere and free to express”.
When not at Omni Jewelcrafters or Sauga 960, Jack is a social activist and philanthropist, but never misses an opportunity to be with his synagogue community and beloved family of eight children and numerous grandchildren (“not sure how many”).
