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 David Olawsky wishing everybody a freilichen Purim or a freilichen Shushan Purim. Uh for all my usual lion friends. And uh I hope you enjoy the day. Remember uh drink responsibly uh if at all. Remember the Rama says you just have to drink a revi'is of wine, which is 3.3 oz since it's a mitzvah ad d'rabbonan according to Reb Moshe Feinstein. And uh then take a nap for a half an hour. So um uh you you don't have to drink ad d'lo yada. You're sleeping, so you don't know. Yeah. The Be'er Heitev says you have to drink enough so that you can't work out that Baruch Mordechai and Arur Haman is the same in gematria. So for most people that's just a sip cuz they can't work out the math anyway. >> [snorts] >> So let's remember what the mitzvahs uh hayom are. At night there's a mitzvah to hear the Megillah. And there is the Mishnah Berurah says mitzvah of seudas Purim. Some sort of seudah. Parenthetically, if you keep regular Purim, there's a mitzvah also of seudas Purim on Shushan Purim. If you keep Shushan Purim, it's a mitzvah of seudas uh seudah on regular Purim. Um and then during the day you have to hear the Megillah. And from a kosher clock. Yeah. Not to be confused with a kosher
