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?

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?
