A father and son sit down for an unusually honest conversation about Jewish identity, continuity, and choice. Allen Horowitz was raised with a strong cultural Jewish pride but little religious observance; his son Meir grew up the same way, until a series of experiences slowly pulled him in a radically different direction. What begins as a familiar American Jewish story turns into something far more complex, touching on interfaith dating, generational expectations, and the quiet questions people are often afraid to ask out loud. As Meir's curiosity deepens, through travel, community, and personal struggle, father and son find themselves navigating a widening gap in worldview while trying to preserve trust, respect, and love. This episode isn't about convincing or converting; it's about watching a relationship adapt in real time as one person changes and the other learns how to respond. A raw, thoughtful look at faith, fear, autonomy, and what it really means to support someone you love, even when their path isn't the one you imagined.

The Rebbe responds to the committee's report on the gemach, emphasizing that loving one's fellow and acts of kindness are central to serving G-d, especially in the era before redemption. He connects their work to Yud–Yud Tes Kislev and to hastening the Geulah. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/003/5931

The Nine Days before Tisha B'Av are a time when we remember what we've lost—the Beis Hamikdash, of course, and so much more.In this very special episode, I sit down with four amazing siblings from Ramot, Yerushalayim—Moshe (15), Nachi (13), Aaron (12), and Leah (9)—who share their story about their little brother Shmuly a”h, who passed away when he was only two years old.They talk about how they remember him, how their family keeps his memory alive, and how his short life still makes a big difference in their home. From a special memory box with Shmuly's toys, to birthday cards they write him every year, these kids show us what real love, pain, and nechama look like.We also speak about how missing Shmuly helped them understand what it means to miss the Beis Hamikdash—and how their pain helped them feel more for other people in Klal Yisrael who are also going through hard times.When Nachi says, “When Mashiach comes, Shmuly will come too,” it's a reminder that our personal tefillos and dreams are all part of the bigger picture of geulah.This episode is emotional, inspiring, and so real. It will help you think about the Nine Days in a whole new way—with heart, with hope, and with love for all of Am Yisrael.
