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.

As I mentioned at the beginning of the previous live stream that this year that we're going through Chelek Aleph Likutei Sichos is a non-leap year. It's a regular year. So, we have double parshas. Um the way that Likutei Sichos is made up is according to a leap year where the those parshas are separate. Also, that leads to some um differences in when the Yomim Tovim fall. So, for instance, we learn the Purim sichos after Purim is all already Purim sichos after Purim is all already over. Um and I hope you're not going to be dissuaded by this. I hope you're not going to run away from me. But the Metzora sicha What are you doing? Oh, okay. You're But the Metzora sicha is actually Shabbos Hagadol. See, it says Parshas Metzora, Shabbos Hagadol. Now, you're going to say to me not only did we already have Shabbos Hagadol? We already had the whole Pesach We already had the whole Pesach including acharon shel Pesach and Mashiach's soda. Why should we learn about Shabbos Hagadol? Well, you know what? Torah is eternal, timeless. Okay, so that's first of all. Uh secondly, maybe you're getting ready for next Shabbos Hagadol. Thirdly, I told you when we started this back in Tishrei that we're going through Likutei Sichos Chelek Aleph the way that it is. And by the way, you're going to be really tickled when uh we do the Pesach really tickled when uh we do the Pesach sichos. There's a whole Pesach section. Oh, the Pesach's Oh, be around Pesach Sheini. We could like Yeah, you could Yeah, but Okay. And by the way, Yisrael, our siyum of our entire Chelek Aleph is Behar Bechukosai, which is the Sunday before Lag Ba'omer. Okay? So, we have a siyum coming up. Lag Ba'omer this year, I think is a Wednesday.
