How can learkgn Torah have a negative effect on someone? "How do you gain self-confidence? How could I not let other people effect me? For example you once spoke how you let people make the same joke about the matzah tie every year and you didn't care? Thank you for making the podcast and especially the question answer segment- I really enjoy it!" "You've mentioned in the past how Adam and Chavah symbolize the ideal marriage - one man, one woman. If so, why are men halachically allowed to have multiple wives? And once you've answered that, by the same logic why can't a woman have several husbands? "I have a question about evolution - of the Rabbi Orlofsky bookshelf. Is it a real bookshelf in Rabbi Orlofsky's house? When did the shelf become a green screen? Does Rabbi Orlofsky travel with a backdrop of the bookshelf? If Rabbi Orlofsky got a new bookshelf, would the green screen change as well? ~~~ Chapters [00:00] Intro [00:32] Not a fun day [2:35] Constant Kindness: USA trip [32:14] Q&A: Torah as a poison?

Sponsored by Annoymous. I'm finally sponsoring an episode! I decided that it's about time to show at least an itsy-bitsy physical amount of hakaras hatov to Rabbi Orlofsky and his show. I'm not exaggerating or being dramatic (though I've been known for such things) when I say that it has saved my life. It reminds me of the little and big joys in life and in Judaism, and I am so grateful. The Rabbi Orlofsky show makes me feel good and reminds me why I want to continue on my life's journey. I love your laugh and the sense of community it gives me.

Sponsored by Canada Rosens (again) Thank you for your fresh and very practical perspective on Torah and Yiddishkeit. In particular, your re-framing of the Aguna "Crisis" into a choice between marriage v.s. pilegesh was excellent. It's a great example of how the world uses inflammatory positioning to get us to lose sight of the ikkur issue. Keep up the great work.

I think most of us would be horrified at the idea of going into an Amaleki village and actually killing everyone - parents holding their children, pregnant women, going into the nursery and killing all the babies, nurses and staff, grandparents, schoolteachers, artists, musicians, doctors, special needs kids, etc. it's absolutely horrifying and sounds exactly like the Nazis, Chas veShalom!

Sponsored by Canada Rosens Thank you for your fresh and very practical perspective on Torah and Yiddishkeit. In particular, your re-framing of the Aguna "Crisis" into a choice between marriage v.s. pilegesh was excellent. It's a great example of how the world uses inflammatory positioning to get us to lose sight of the ikkur issue. Keep up the great work.
