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

We had about 130 people the first one about 4 weeks ago and then 2 weeks ago we did another one. We've been averaging, you know, picking people based on ages and types of backgrounds. The team that you hear that you see here is stellar. Batsheva is fantastic. Sharon said is unbelievable. Esther Rand one of the best. Joseph Zima who owns the yellow door is behind the scenes doing what he took care of. The food, he took a lot of the stuff. He made sure that we have the location. Stephen wasn't There's a big wedding tonight in Deal. So we have four members of the team that couldn't make it. But I just want to tell you that there is a deficiency or hisaron of people meeting organically. As we're getting up there, you know, as age takes and as a result there's been a request from us to try to do something about it. Please understand they're all volunteers. The mission is very simple. To try to create as many Jewish homes as we can and to try to facilitate that. So I had a another one of my very important team members isn't here tonight because of a simcha. That's Adina. A very dear you know, colleague of mine. So we had a discussion which which should be our next event. This is talking about tonight. And she suggested let's do one specifically for the Sephardic community which is geared towards the religious crowd cuz we had one Sephardic about a month ago. It was called Sephardic and open to Sephardic but we didn't really cap it in
