What’s said in this shiur

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

This stuff you want me to show me in my circle of time. It's in the middle of a long story about here Rabbi Hanina and Sefora Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai and Durema. Let's start from the um the second line on your side of the mar'eh al af. Uh and that in the Vilna is the last line in uh uh on Yud Dalet Amud Bet. So when Rabbi Hanina had made the fast in Sefora he uh it didn't he didn't participate and he didn't bring rain. He said, "You know, you guys have to fix yourselves. There's lots of corrupt people here. Um it's not going to happen without some heavy work. Um and um Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai on the other hand in Durema, so the um he he did participate in Taanis and the uh uh the rain came down. And now the Sefora were upset that this distinction. And [snorts] that's um where we're going to pick up here. Uh So um the uh I have a Sefora on me. So I said Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai makes me chill in the rain. Uh Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai brings rain for the people in the south. Rabbi Hanina let's say Miami in Sefora. Rabbi Hanina arrests the water from the from the people in Sefora. Um so as the Korban says that uh I have I have means to bring Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai to Durema. He protects the people in the south. One of them Shimon bar Yochai brings rain. Aheram Lami category of Sefora. He's got a he's saying all sorts of bad things about it.
