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

Okay. Um This sheer responsibility must be small small and repent for some reason or another. Okay. I the the announced topic was Chavis in America. It's going to take us a little bit of background to get there. Let's start like this. The the I think after after the video of the coming to the city of it's probably not another like such iconic video like the video of the Monkatsh Rebbe in 1933 looking directly at the camera and looking directly at the camera and exhorting all of you then in America to keep Chavis. Today it's already scored in several songs and it's I think outside of that outside of that video of the time it's probably not such a like a poignant video that could capture one in one instance someone's personality A and such a you know pressing cause. So the the the Monkatsh Rebbe just understand that video. He he was the the Rebbe of Monkatsh, prolific Rebbe, tremendous Rebbe.

He marries a second wife and middle of World War I he travels to doctors and he has one child, one daughter. This one daughter on this one daughter is riding all the all the future of Monkatsh all the future of everything he's investing in. When she was 9 years old he started traveling around looking for a Rebbe for her already and in 1927 when she was 11 I think she was engaged
