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

[Music] all righty so the ciata de shmaya we're going to begin this week's inner dimension cheer i want to welcome each and every one of you and thank each and every one of you for joining and for taking time off from a very very busy schedule i'm sure on a wednesday uh some of us are driving some of us are who knows what we're doing so it's very very special that you'll join me from wherever you are and it's just so amazing to see all of these khawrim makshivin from all around the world joining together as one to see to learn the words of the sadiq and there's nothing more beautiful and like i say often i think one of the most powerful defense claims and advocacies on behalf of our generation is this that we say on monday and thursday um that after everything that we've been through as a jewish nation and each of us individually in our own lives we haven't forgotten you and we're continuing to try valiantly and to strive each of us in our own life no matter what happened yesterday and no matter what our week has looked like until this point and no matter how we'll look like going forward because there's some we should have an elevated end of the week but this aza stikadusa this holy stubbornness to be able to say that as it is and as i am i am going to go ahead and take an hour off to be able to learn this maya
