What’s said in this shiur

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

Hi, this is the Rabbi Alon Avsky and welcome to the Rabbi Alon Avsky show. >> [applause] >> BETTER LATE THAN NEVER. AND WHETHER YOU'RE WATCHING WITH our friends and producers over at Torah Anytime, wherever you watch or listen to your podcast, as always, it's wonderful to have you along. And a special mention of our new merch store. >> [laughter] >> I have to say I think I'm the only Torah personality with his own bless you all. >> [laughter] >> Jeffrey, thank you so much. I I you know, somebody had written me once because it was the crocodile island thing that I had mentioned. They said, you know, my kids were in the car and I felt a little uncomfortable. Who is the podcast for? I said, "The podcast is mostly aimed towards uh from adult Jews." I know there are non-Jews who are listening, like Jeffrey. I didn't know that you listened to every question and answer in parsha in five in every episode. Uh because that's got to make an impact on you. >> [laughter] >> I know it makes an impact on me. And uh and I know there are non-frum Jews who listen. I know there are children who listen. So, I try to make it something that I think will be accessible to everybody. And Jeff, I hope you'll let me know whether or not you feel that it's more or less there. I try not to speak too much sprach. This is what Yeshivish Jews speak among themselves. It's a combination of Hebrew, Yiddish, and English spritzed together. So, um So, a guy in Yeshiva will say something like, "L'chaim, it's taka a problem." And thinks he's speaking English. >> [laughter] >> Epis. Norton. So, um anyway, thanks. Thank you so much,
