What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Glatstein’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Okay, good morning everyone. We're continuing in we're learning the said that if you poured water on one hand and then you rub that hand on the other hand then doesn't work. Even if afterward you pour on both hands because the water that went on hand one became tame and then when you rub hand two the other hand became tame and is not only water that became tame from that hand not what became tame from a different hand. Therefore says the if you pour water from a cle on one hand and you rub it what do you have to do? You have to dry it and wash again. Therefore the says this is what we did last week. When you wash ideally someone else should pour the water on your hands. If you don't have that other guy, hold the cle at the tip of your fingers and pour on both hands together. Again, that's also uh quite a art. That's also not so pushet. Um or another option which is might be more practical, pour on each hand and then rub them together. When you pour at one time, you don't need they made pouring at one time like a mikvah that you don't need to rinse it two times. That you don't need to rinse it two times. Okay, this is where we're up to. That was just by way of background. If let's say someone else touched your hands, someone who didn't wash yet while your hands are still wet from the water. So your hands are wet and another guy Larry comes along and he touches your hands. Now you have to dry your hands and wash again. Why? This guy was your hands through the
