Nov 9, 2020

The Jewish world lost an irreplacable icon of wisdom, intellect, and inspiration with the passing of Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, zt"l, the former Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth. In January 2018, Rabbi Goldberg interviewed Rabbi Sacks in Boca Raton; now, for the first time, the interview is being made available publicly. In this episode, Rabbi Sacks goes Behind the Bima to discuss how he found meaning in prayer even when it was not easy, how he learned to recover from his early failures, and how he managed to keep his faith in G-d throughout his life. A special, meaningful conversation with someone whose absence will be felt deeply by many around the world.

Special Guest - Myron Sugerman

Feb 3, 2022

1:28:16

Myron Sugerman was born in Newark, New Jersey, in 1938, and at the age of twenty-one he followed his father's footsteps into the family business--Coin-operated amusements. Like his father, Barney "Sugie" Sugerman, Myron sold and operated slot machines, jukeboxes, cigarette machines, and anything else that accepted coins and entertained people in bars, nightclubs, and other hangouts around the world. The vocation took him all over the world's six habitable continents--to everywhere but Antarctica.For well over half a century, Myron did business with some of the most dangerous characters known to the public, including top-ranking members of the Genovese and Gambino crime families, La Corporacion, the Yakuza, and the Cali Cartel, among others. Today he lives in Montclair, New Jersey, with his wife Clara. He is semi-retired, but sought after for his counsel by the up-and-coming generation of the gambling machine business, to whom he is known as the "chief rabbi." He has three sons-- one of whom is a real rabbi and a well known rabbinical scholar--and eight grandchildren. Myron Sugerman's memoir, The Last Jewish Gangster: From Meyer to Myron, is more than just a riveting account of the author's nearly sixty-year career as an international outlaw in the field of slot machines and casinos. Its Also a fascinating meditation on a variety of themes: aging, respect, adventure, greed, and man's tendency to be his own worst enemy.

Rabbi Mansour is currently the Rabbi of The Edmond J Safra Synagogue in Brooklyn, New York. He started his Yeshiva education at Magen David Yeshiva, which was founded by the Rabbi’s great uncle, the esteemed Mr. Isaac Shalom A"H. There he studied Torah and absorbed the richness of our heritage from noted Rabbis such as Rabbi David Bitton A"H, and Rabbi Moshe Greenes A”H. However, the figure who had the most significant impact on the Rabbi’s development was Rabbi Baruch ben Haim A"H. Rabbi Mansour continued his education as one of the founding students of Yeshivat Shaare Torah High School, where he was guided by his Rosh Yeshivah, Rabbi Hillel Haber. After graduating from Shaare Torah, he studied at Jeursalem’s Mercaz Hatorah, and then in the Bet Medrash Gavoha in Lakewood, New Jersey. His rigorous schedule includes an early-morning Daf Yomi class, a daily Halachic discourse, an Ein Yaakov class to businessmen, and regular lectures at Ilan High School, in the synagogue and in the homes of community members. But for his many students and followers, the highlight of the week is Rabbi Mansour’s Shabbat afternoon derasha, which consistently draws more people than seats available. 00:00 - Intro 17:09 - Interview 56:40 - Outro Connect with Rabbi Efrem Goldberg: Website: https://rabbiefremgoldberg.org/ Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/efrem.goldberg Twitter: http://twitter.com/rabbigoldberg Rabbi Efrem Goldberg: Rabbi, Boca Raton Synagogue (BRS).

Special Guest - Coach Bruce Pearl

Apr 7, 2022

1:00:31

Bruce Alan Pearl (born March 18, 1960) is an American college basketball coach, and the head coach of the Auburn Tigers men's basketball program. A video of Pearl (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6 nRO8KEEFo) went viral in which he said at a press conference: "My Hebrew name is Mordecai, and I think my family gave me that name for this reason. Mordecai talked to Esther the queen and said, 'Look, Esther, you might survive this for a little while, but you won't survive this. He's really going to kill all the Jewish people and your family.' And he gave Esther the courage to try to see if she could turn the King's heart, and she did. And saved the nation. So some of you may be uncomfortable — you guys asked the question, right? You asked the question about Ukraine. We say never again. I was born in 1960, 15 years after they opened up the gates, and they saw 6 million Jews were murdered and 3 million more people. So if Tara VanDerveer wants money for 3-pointers, I'll up whatever they're offering. I'm in. I'm all in. Help the Ukrainian people survive that." 00:00 - Intro 18:44 - Interview 52:21 - Outro Connect with Rabbi Efrem Goldberg: Website: https://rabbiefremgoldberg.org/ Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/efrem.goldberg Twitter: http://twitter.com/rabbigoldberg Rabbi Efrem Goldberg: Rabbi, Boca Raton Synagogue (BRS).
