What’s said in this shiur

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

Throughout Klal Yisroel’s history, there have been moments when great individuals have started and launched memorable programs that have saved Klal Yisroel. Not just a program, but something transformative. R’ Yehuda HaNasi documented, he gathered all of Mishnayos, and he made תורה שבעל פה something that is written and accessible. It saved Klal Yisroel. A millennia later, the Ba’al Shem Tov started Chasidus. He felt the time was ripe. Klal Yisroel needed a spark, and it helped save Klal Yisroel. 100 years ago, a courageous Chasidishe Talmid Chacham started a Daf Yomi program. And Daf Yomi is something that has helped transform Klal Yisroel. It would take a shtempl, a stamp of approval from the Zaken and Gadol HaDor, the Chafetz Chaim, but you look around the world today and it's incredible. The Nazis tried to destroy Klal Yisroel, and R’ Aharon Kotler, the Ponevezher Rav and others launched the Yeshiva movement unlike any other in history. It transformed Klal Yisroel. השכלה tried to ensnare and take away our daughters, the Bnos Yisroel, and Sarah Schenirer began the Bais Yaakov movement. It transformed Klal Yisroel. And now we come to a moment in time,
