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.

uh last week we were speaking about Jewish resilience and keeping a positive attitude and uh staying emotionally stable when the world is crazy remember that okay for those of you who weren't here those watching online who don't want to go back and watch part one at least not right away um I mentioned last week that there's a famous work by the medieval spanish author Miguel de santes who was the great they call him the the Spanish Shakespeare he was the Shakespeare of the Spanish language and uh his great work as magnum opus was donot Don kot is the protagonist of the book uh don kot is a knight or in his own mind he's a knight um he thinks he's fighting fighting dragons really he is fighting windmills he thinks he's rescuing a princess uh all types of he's he's got this Fantasy Life and um at any rate so the whole question is if donot is mad if he's absolutely crazy or maybe he's uh somebody we should look up to he's an idealist and we should be like Don kote and remember last week I said the the Broadway musical man of lamancha which was based on donot that the big song the hit song There was The Impossible Dream to dream The Impossible Dream and that's really the whole theme of Don kot is that he he dared to dream The Impossible Dream and not just to dream it but he actually believed in it and then the whole question is is he the crazy one or or are the naysayers The Crazy Ones so I mentioned last week that it is theorized by cantes Scholars that Cervantes very well may have been a crypto Jew uh we know statistically
