What’s said in this shiur

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

so uh there was once a priest and he comes knocking frantically at the door of the rabbi and the rabbi sees who it is he opens up he asks the priest what's what's going on he says rabbi i need your help we have a big problem in our community there have been a lot of break-ins um house has been broken into burglaries and um we noticed that your community the jews you don't have nearly as many break-ins as we do and there must be something you're doing differently than us can you help me out can you tell me what to do for my flock so the rabbi says to the priest he says well you know it's interesting you you say that they're standing at the door you know so the rabbit points to the mezuzah on the doorpost he says you see that that's that's the mezuzah and that protects the house and all who are in it and everything in it so that's that's the secret of uh our home security system spiritual home security system so the mesos the priest says okay rabbi that's it i'm ordering 500 messages okay no problem orders and messages goes and he puts them up and all the doors of his congregation two weeks later priest comes frantically knocking at the door of the rabbi he says rabbi you got to help me you got to help me rabbi says what's wrong didn't the mezuzah's work he says yes yes we put up the muslims they work
