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

Why is Why is he not open with me? I'm the best father in the world. I'm Rabbi Y.Y. Jacobson. Everybody comes to talk to me. Why can't my kids come to talk to me? Such pain to keep women or men in shackles for so many years. It's not enough the abuse they went through their whole marriage. Now they can't even get out of the marriage. So important, every woman needs a support system. She can't do it on her own. As a community, we are not allowed to tolerate people who are abusing innocent people. Mikvah is it's very important. But what do you think about sending children? Okay, we have over here today an esteemed guest, special guest that came in today, an individual who needs no introduction, Rabbi Y.Y. Jacobson. Um you have a way with um raw messages and emess that you give. People are You're known for giving special raw messages. You have dedicated your life to help people, to help people out of their struggles, to help people out to navigate life. You know what it says? The term of the voided says that our job is to emulate the bon olam. The bon olam it says elokim bakashas hanirdof. And what I noticed is that you dedicated your life to stand up for the nirdofim. Your style when you stand up and you speak about certain topics with such a passion, with such a fire. I remember a few years ago I was by Shiners and it was on a Tisha B'Av. Uh you gave a shiur 3:00 in the afternoon. 2 hours, 2 and 1/2 hours.
