What’s said in this shiur

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

um a few people forward me from different chats the different things that i was quoted to have saying which i did not so please listen carefully again just to make sure that you heard correctly um we're going to speak today about uh we're going to begin with microwaves now microwaves is a big controversy well whether one can uh contour a microwave for pesach especially in light of the fact that yesterday we mentioned that we are mahmoud like motion not to capture plastic there are uh artistrol deco playskim who say you could but we're going to go like gravemicia that we don't capture plastic so that's an issue for a microwave most microwaves the interior is plastic but nevertheless even though we may basically maintain that not to cast your plastic but a microwave we could be lenient and the reason is because the food is not really being heated up by the interior of the microwave in fact the interior of a microwave may not even get hot at all unless food splatters on it but that's not the method of of it cooking it's basically cooked with electro waves obviously a microwave you can use on shabbos or yumpta anyway but we're dealing with hula might now so a microwave we will allow capturing a microwave for pesach and it will be cautious similar to many of the things that we're going to mention and that is it's going to be cleaned out very well you're going to wait 24 hours you're going to take a cup of water or a bowl of water you're going to fill it up to the top and you're going to let it boil for an extended time
