"Judah's storytelling is unique and uniquely superb. His stories always come from the heart and he has an uncanny ability to bring great humor and delightful insight into places of vulnerability, places where many others dare not tread." --Deborah Rose, Acupuncturist, Somerville, MA

"Mr. Leblang's performance-stories are authentic, relevant and engaging, no matter who you are or what perspective you're listening from. For example, What a Fellowship, a tale of a young, gay, white man and his black Godmother, knows few boundaries." --Damon Feldman, Software Developer, Waltham, MA
