Worship Leader Desi Whorton explains that the Bible tells the story of God's mission carried out through His people and highlights the Great Commission as our ongoing call to make disciples. He emphasizes faithful obedience as the reason we know Jesus today and invites us to continue the work.

Have you ever sent an outreach message and wondered why it didn't get a response? In this episode of the Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch breaks down exactly what makes outreach messages work and what causes them to fall flat. She shares practical strategies for crafting messages that truly engage readers, build connection, and inspire action, instead of getting ignored or deleted. Nikki starts by analyzing a real outreach message that, at first glance, seems polished and professional. But on closer inspection, it fails to spark engagement because it is written entirely from the sender's perspective. With more than 70 percent of its sentences beginning with “I” or “we,” the message focuses on the writer's wants, vision, and goals, rather than on the recipient. Nikki explains why this self centered approach is a common trap and why effective outreach messages must flip the focus back onto the reader. One of the most powerful ways to do this is through questions. Nikki draws on neuroscience and psychology to show that questions literally hijack the brain, triggering instinctive elaboration and forcing the reader to engage. She highlights how well placed questions tap into cognitive engagement, encourage reflection, and even create new neural pathways that make a message more memorable. Whether it is as simple as “Are you being called to uplevel?” or “Would you agree the world needs positive voices?,” the shift from statements to questions transforms outreach messages into genuine conversations. Clarity is another key ingredient. Nikki emphasizes that vague, generic phrases like “uplevel, expand, redirect” or “your voice has power” don't connect because they could apply to anyone. Instead, she encourages giving specific, sincere compliments that show real understanding of the recipient's work. She also stresses the importance of having a single, clear call to action. Multiple asks like “check out our website” and “schedule a call” only dilute the message and overwhelm the reader. Throughout the episode, Nikki shares practical tips like following the 80/20 rule (at least 80 percent of sentences should be about the reader, only 20 percent about the sender) and framing calendar links around the recipient's convenience rather than the writer's. She even offers a simple pattern interrupt question, “Did I catch you at a bad time?,” that can shift conversations instantly. By the end, you will not only understand the psychology behind effective outreach messages but also have clear, actionable ways to rewrite your own. Nikki's advice will help you stop wasting time on generic messages and start creating authentic connections that get real responses. Nikki invites you to join the Sales Maven Society.

Paul and Silas were unjustly beaten and imprisoned with their feet put in stocks. Instead of despairing, they prayed and sang hymns while the other prisoners listened. At midnight, God divinely intervened by way of a powerful earthquake, shaking and opening all the cell doors and setting all the prisoners free. As a result, salvation came to the jailer and all of his family. The Word of God cannot be bound and salvation is for anyone who will call upon the name of the Lord and ask, what must I do to be saved? By Dave Bartlett

Jeff Klein, Pastor of Outreach

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe reflects on the tragic fatal shooting of conservative activist, and civil right icon, Charlie Kirk, a 31-year-old husband and father, during a speaking event at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, describing it as a shocking manifestation of societal desensitization to violence and the silencing of opposing voices. Drawing from Genesis 4:2-10, he recounts Cain's murder of Abel due to jealousy over words, emphasizing that attempts to suppress differing opinions—whether through de-platforming or violence—fail, as God hears the "voice of blood from the ground." Rabbi Wolbe extends this to Genesis 37, where Joseph's brothers' hatred of his dreams leads to their plot against him, yet Judah advocates mercy over murder. He connects this to the current political climate, urging listeners to focus on commonalities rather than differences to foster love and unity, even amid disagreements. Acknowledging Kirk's non-Jewish but Shabbat-observing life and strong support for Israel, Rabbi Wolbe praises his inspiration for youth engagement and calls for public Jewish pride in Zionism and Shabbos observance. He warns against media desensitization to murder, stressing the need to protect one's neshama (soul) from such content, and concludes with a blessing for long lives of accomplishment, emphasizing the value of every moment, as no one is guaranteed eternity, and encourages maximizing good deeds without fame.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 12, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on September 14, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

In this Merkavah installment we explore Yesod and Yosef HaTzaddik as the foundation that brings spiritual intent into concrete reality. We trace how Yosef's journey, from betrayal to leadership, models disciplined attachment and holy channeling of passion, the vav that binds heaven and earth. Yesod becomes practical through action, bris milah as covenantal alignment, business and marriage as arenas to root values, and daily mitzvos as the pipeline that carries blessing into the world. Discover how Yosef's path through suffering to greatness reveals the essence of Yesod: turning trials into foundations, passion into purpose, and becoming the channel through which divine blessing flows into the world. Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Parshas Ki Savo, the seventh portion in the Book of Deuteronomy, focusing on Deuteronomy 26:11, which instructs the Jewish people to rejoice in all the goodness given by Hashem, including to their households, the Levites, and converts. Rabbi Wolbe, citing the Orachaim HaKadosh, emphasizes that this "goodness" refers to the Torah, described as sweeter than honey, capable of transforming negative traits like arrogance or anger into positive ones, as it extracts impurities, much like honey purifies non-kosher items over time. He shares personal anecdotes, such as his excitement at understanding Talmud for the first time at age 15, and stories of great sages like the Steipler, who survived freezing conditions through immersion in Torah study, and Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, whose Torah focus influenced even physical phenomena like a flickering light at his passing.Rabbi Wolbe underscores the Torah's transformative power, urging listeners to engage with its living, relevant teachings daily, as exemplified by his grandfather's advice to study a verse before leaving home to shield against temptation. He connects the parsha to current events, noting the Torah's status as a "tree of life" that energizes and elevates, encouraging listeners to embrace its sweetness with passion and commitment, especially during Elul, and concludes with a blessing for deeper Torah connection._____________This episode (Ep 7.46) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Ki Savo is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 9, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on September 11, 2025_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired! Share your questions at awolbe@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

This week, we're diving into a viral LinkedIn post that challenges everything you thought you knew about recruiting. We'll break down five key principles, starting with the art of the email. It's not about you — it's about the candidate. We'll show you why "selling the conversation, not the job" is a non-negotiable rule and how to craft a message that actually gets a response. We also tackle the sheer volume of outreach needed to succeed, and why getting your email deliverability right is more critical now than ever.We'll explain why candidates are most honest at the outset and how you can use that to your advantage. Most importantly, we'll talk about the power of listening. We make the case for why a recruiter should be listening for 27 minutes out of a 30-minute call, and how asking "Hot Ones"-quality questions can help you connect on a deeper level. Finally, we'll discuss why clear communication, not just speed, is the ultimate superpower in a competitive hiring market.Chapters:00:00 - Five recruiting strategies you can't ignore for 202502:50 - Why you should sell the conversation, not the job08:59 - Why volume is your friend and deliverability is your superpower10:53 - The initial screening call: what candidates are really telling you13:28 - The 27/3 rule: why great recruiters barely speak19:06 - How to create momentum without sacrificing the candidate experienceExplore all our episodes and catch the full video experience at loxo.co/podcastBecoming a Hiring Machine is brought to you by Loxo.

In this episode of the Prayer Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the mystical and powerful Ana Bekoach prayer, attributed to the Tanaic sage Rabbi Nechunya ben HaKanah, which is recited at the end of the morning offerings and before Shabbos to signify a spiritual transition from the physical world of Asiyah (doing) to the higher realm of Yetzirah (creation). Comprising seven lines with six words each, totaling 42 words, the prayer reflects the 42-letter name of Hashem used in creation, with each line corresponding to a divine attribute, a day of creation, and the menorah's branches, and its acronyms forming sacred names that are not pronounced to maintain their sanctity. Rabbi Wolbe explains its role as a plea for redemption, asking Hashem to release the Jewish people from limitations and protect them from adversities like anti-Semitism, as exemplified by recent tragedies in Jerusalem and Gaza. Drawing from the Arizal and Talmud (Kiddushin 71a), he highlights the prayer's deep mystical significance, its connection to the Shema, and its ability to open channels of divine blessing (shefa), emphasizing the need for humility and purity when engaging with it. Rabbi Wolbe encourages daily recitation to renew oneself, connect to Hashem's kingship, and emanate godliness, concluding with a blessing that all prayers be accepted._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #37) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

"The best way to get started is to quit and begin doing." - Walt DisneyIt has been a little while, but we are back with another Thirty Days of Thought with friends and what better friends could we ask to do this with than the two we have assembled for today?  Our guests today need no introduction but we're going to give them one anyway...the Head of Engagement and Outreach at American Business Media, Andrew Berman, and the Chief Marketing Officer of Paramount Residential Mortgage Group, Paul Lucido, are here to discuss the idea of quitting every day that you are an entrepreneur.  It is hard to dispute that going into business for yourself is one of the most difficult and stressful things one can do, but that just means the ones that succeed are the ones who really wanted it.  Quitting doesn't have to mean you're taking your ball and going home.  In today's episode, Andrew, Paul, and Jay are taking a crack at unpacking all there is to unpack those statements and we hope you enjoy this discussion on The Culture Matters Podcast.

In this episode, we tackle one of the most sensitive and often misunderstood topics in Jewish life: conversion. Together with Rabbi Pill, we explore what the Torah and Halacha actually say about becoming Jewish, what makes a conversion valid, the essential role of beis din, and how kabbalas mitzvos defines the process. We also address the emotional challenges and misconceptions that many face when questions of Jewish status arise. If you've ever wondered what Hashem truly requires in this journey, you'll discover a perspective that cuts through confusion and reveals the eternal clarity of Torah, something that may completely transform the way you see Jewish identity and belonging.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

The Torah has a surprising view on joy and how to attain it. The prevailing attitude in our society is that a person's state of joy is contingent upon circumstance: In good days, people tend to feel a bit more joyous. On bad days, it's more difficult to feel joy. Joy, according to society, is inextricably connected to circumstance. The Torah understands otherwise. The Torah teaches us that there is a dial of joy which can be easily manipulated. If you want more joy, all you need to do is rotate the dial in one direction. To reduce joy, spin it the other way. In this Parsha Podcast, we share the secret of the dial of joy. To boost your joy, listen carefully.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the origins and significance of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, noting it commemorates the sixth day of creation when Adam and Eve were formed, making it a two-day holiday worldwide. He describes it as a day of divine judgment for all humanity, drawing from the Mishnah in Tractate Rosh Hashanah, which outlines four annual judgment periods: Pesach for grains, Shavuot for fruits, Rosh Hashanah for human deeds (determining life or death), and Sukkot for water. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes its dual nature as both solemn judgment and joyful celebration, where God desires to bestow goodness, urging listeners to prepare by realigning with divine will and crowning God as king.Rabbi Wolbe delves into the phrase "Kivnei Maron" from Psalms, interpreting it through Talmudic lenses: judging speech for truthfulness, individual talents and potential (illustrated by the Netziv's story), and one's influence on others. He stresses personal accountability for fulfilling God-given abilities, avoiding self-limitation, and positively impacting the community to merit favorable judgment.

As we get closer to Rosh Hashana we need to define what life is, if that is what we are asking for on Rosh Hashana. We delve into what it may seem to be but is in truth a fallacy. After an incredible story and much dreaming we hopefully gain clarity on a life worth living. 

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the origins and significance of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, noting it commemorates the sixth day of creation when Adam and Eve were formed, making it a two-day holiday worldwide. He describes it as a day of divine judgment for all humanity, drawing from the Mishnah in Tractate Rosh Hashanah, which outlines four annual judgment periods: Pesach for grains, Shavuot for fruits, Rosh Hashanah for human deeds (determining life or death), and Sukkot for water. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes its dual nature as both solemn judgment and joyful celebration, where God desires to bestow goodness, urging listeners to prepare by realigning with divine will and crowning God as king.Rabbi Wolbe delves into the phrase "Kivnei Maron" from Psalms, interpreting it through Talmudic lenses: judging speech for truthfulness, individual talents and potential (illustrated by the Netziv's story), and one's influence on others. He stresses personal accountability for fulfilling God-given abilities, avoiding self-limitation, and positively impacting the community to merit favorable judgment. Practical advice includes believing in oneself and children, volunteering to become indispensable, and genuinely desiring spiritual growth, as all blessings for the year are decreed on Rosh Hashanah, linking to the subsequent days of repentance and Sukkot.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 7, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on August 9, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Ron Carpenter Television week of 09/07/2025.

The judgment on Rosh Hashanah is comprehensive: every single human has his or her moment of judgment before God. Even the dead are judged again each year. The judgment covers not only our behavior with respect to fulfilling our obligations to God, it also covers interpersonal matters. If we are meritorious, we will be forgiven for all our sins on Yom Kippur, but that atones only sins down between man and God. For interpersonal sins, we are not forgiven until we appease our friend and elicit their forgiveness. But these two domains are not entirely separate. In this short and sweet podcast sourced from the writings of my grandfather of blessed memory, we learn how important our interpersonal behavior is vis-a-vis our status before God. Now is the time to prepare.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Send us a textWhen they heard these words, some of the people said, “This really is the Prophet.” Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “Is the Christ to come from Galilee? Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the offspring of David, and comes from Bethlehem, the village where David was?” So there was a division among the people over Him. John 7:40-43In the Book of John, we see a growing division occurring surrounding Jesus as we come to chapter 7.  There are the Pharisees on one hand; bitterly opposed and against any claims that He is the Messiah.  There are the adherents to His ministry; His disciples and other followers.  But in the middle of both camps there is a third group:  those who are in the middle ground and undecided about Jesus.  They are compelled by His words.  They know there is something about Him.  But the naysayers are speaking loudly; trying to drown out Jesus' voice.  As we look at this passage today, we must admit not much has changed in our world.  There is still a middle ground group that is somewhere between belief and unbelief, faith and doubt.  It is this group we must pray for and minister to.  We are at the edge of great revival as many are turning to Jesus right now.  

Christian maturity is more than externals—it's a life that endures trials and actually changes you. John Stevenson lays out a practical roadmap for resilient discipleship and the one habit most people skip. Host Kevin Kapchinski talks with John Stevenson, Director of Campus Ministry at St. Mary's Catholic Center (College Station), about forming disciples who last beyond college. Drawing on Corps of Cadets grit and years with Saint Paul's Outreach, John explains why relational evangelization—not programs—shapes durable faith. He names the essentials: identity as a beloved son or daughter, endurance through trials, a daily prayer life, honest confession, and living in community and mission. They challenge consumer mindsets about the Mass (covenant over preferences) and press into dependence on the Holy Spirit for authentic witness. If you're a student, young professional, or parent, this gives you a clear path forward. Follow the show, rate & review in your podcast app, and share it.

As the Book of Deuteronomy draws to its conclusion, the narrative makes a transition: Moshe finishes conveying the mitzvos to the nation, and sets up his final parting message to the people. First, he commands the nation to perform several elaborate ceremonies on the very first day that they cross the Jordan River; then he conveys a scathing, terrifying list of curses that will befall the people in the event that we deviate from the Torah.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In the 13th episode of the Ask Away series on the Everyday Judaism Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe responds to a variety of student questions, exploring the meaning and origin of Amen as an affirmation of truth derived from El Melech Ne'eman, clarifying that the person reciting a blessing does not say Amen but others should to join in the blessing's merit. He addresses whether saying Amen at a communal Motzi is appropriate, discusses the importance of integrity in light of Bernie Madoff's actions, and explains how to overcome negative traits like cruelty or anger through small, consistent steps toward God-like qualities, as taught in Mussar. Rabbi Wolbe also emphasizes the priority of supporting Torah study through non-profits as a form of charity, the value of anonymous giving, and the spiritual significance of the Mishnah recitation after Torah study with a minyan, concluding with a call to verify rabbinic teachings with sources and a blessing for a meaningful week.In this episode of Ask Away we address these questions and topics:Here are the questions asked by the students in the provided transcript of the Ask Away series on the Everyday Judaism Podcast:Ed: What is the origin of Amen, and if it is said after a blessing, does the person who gives/recites the blessing say Amen?Jimmy: When we say the HaMotzi at our dinner table or any of our meals and we all say Amen, are we incorrect?Ed: You said that Jews are not cruel, and if they are cruel, you got to inspect their lineage. Did anybody ever inspect Bernie Madoff's lineage?Anna: If you find yourself with a trait of cruelty, is there no workaround? You just do teshuvah and change your ways, or is there another approach, like becoming a butcher or surgeon for someone who favors bloodletting?Anna: Are non-profits considered poor in the context of the obligation to help the poor?Anna: If someone doesn't ask for charity, but you give to them anyway (e.g., a smile, food, or beverage), is that the same mitzvah as charity, or is it a different mitzvah?Jimmy: What is the good side of the trait of anger?

This Day in Maine Friday, September 5, 2025

The death of one's spouse is always a tragedy, but there's something particularly sad about someone who dies without children. Leaving no living progeny behind leaves a person without continuity, without a legacy in this world. When a man dies childless, the Torah instructs his wife to seek to marry her deceased husband's brother in fulfillment of a law called Yibbum, known as levirate marriage. When this couple bears their firstborn child -- the Baby Yi-Boomer -- he will be named after the deceased husband/brother, and thereby provide a continuity to his soul. But if the brother refuses to marry his sister-in-law, if he eschews taking responsibility for his brother's soul, then a process called Chalitzah is done: the widow removes her brother-in-law's shoe, spits on the ground next to him, and derisively proclaims, "So shall be done to the man who refuses to build his brother's house." What could possibly be the meaning of these very strange laws? In this wonderful Parsha podcast, we discover the answers that illuminate this law, but also provide us with a newfound understanding of messiah and the imperative for selfless dedication on behalf of us.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode of the Prayer Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the Ketores (incense offering), the final and most powerful part of the morning offerings discussed in the context of Parshas Ki Seitzei, read during the month of Elul. He explains that the Ketores, detailed on pages 34–39 of the Wasserman Siddur, is spiritually significant, as the Zohar teaches it nullifies negative forces in the world through its aroma. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes its potency, noting that it surpasses even the Shema and Amida in some aspects, often recited with a minyan to maximize its impact. He delves into the symbolism of numbers, highlighting that 10 represents holiness (e.g., Ten Commandments, ten verses in Rosh Hashanah prayers), while 11 and 9 signify evil forces. The Ketores uses 11 spices to counter these forces, with specific weights (e.g., 70, 16, 12, 9 mane) to disrupt their sequence and overpower evil, as seen when Aaron used incense to stop Korach's rebellion. Rabbi Wolbe connects the 11 amot depth of Noah's Ark and the 11 verses in V'Yiten Lecha to this protective power. He discusses the inclusion of chelbenah (galbanum), a foul-smelling spice, to symbolize incorporating the less righteous, as their negative traits can be transformed in a positive environment, like a yeshiva, mirroring the Yom Kippur prayer's inclusion of all Jews (Kol Nidre). The Ketores must include all 11 spices, or it incurs severe consequences, underscoring the need for precision in recitation, as if offering it in the Temple.Rabbi Wolbe explains the use of salt as a preservative, dipped three times with challah to chase away evil, and notes the exclusion of honey, despite its transformative power, due to Torah prohibition and cost considerations. He highlights the spiritual ascent of the Ketores's aroma, transforming physical elements into a divine connection, and cites the Shulchan HaKadosh to emphasize feeling the teshuvah of the offerings over mere understanding. Reciting Ketores protects individuals, families, and the Jewish nation. Rabbi Wolbe concludes by connecting the shofar's sound in Elul to sending prayers to God, urging listeners to reflect on their past year and seek teshuvah to clear spiritual obstacles, wishing all a meaningful week._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #36) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!
