Song: Akiva Nichamtanu Sung by Baruch Levine Inspiration by Baruch Levine   As we stand here right after Tisha B'av, we can't help but wonder if this will actually be the last Tisha B'av. Every year we yearn and try to better ourselves with the hope that Hashem will bring us out of this galus, but then Tisha B'av comes again and we're left asking ourselves "What now?!"  But just as quickly as the fast ends, a new hope arises with the famous words "Nachamu Nachamu Ami". What is this nechama, this consolation?  Baruch Levine takes us into the well known gemara with Rabbi Akiva and the famous words "Akiva Nichamtanu! Akiva Nichamtanu!" through his beautiful song. May this year actually be the last Tisha B'av we ever have to mourn, and may the redemption turn this day of sorrow into a day of great celebration.   No Internet? No smartphone? No problem!

Song: Yidden Sung by Chaim Ghoori & Mendy Worch Inspiration by Chaim Ghoori   Over the last year we have seen an incredible amount of ahavas yisroel. When we are able to put our differences aside and look deeper into another Yid, we will find someone who is so precious and so pure. Rarely a song comes out and shines this light on every Yid the way the song "Yidden" does. Produced by Thank You Hashem, it is a song that has helped Yidden around the world see the greatness of their fellow Jews, as well as the greatness within themselves.   No Internet? No smartphone?

Song: Chanukah is Here  Composed by: Elimelech Blumstein Sung by: Zusha     We're living in dark times. With what's going on in Eretz Yisroel and the spread of anti semitism around the world, the Yom Tov of Chanukah brings a much needed light to the Jewish world.     Baruch Hashem, over the last few months we have witnessed communities and individuals from across Klal Yisroel who have spread their light to others. Chanukah is a time to bring that light to new levels.     May you all have a lichtege Chanukah, and may all of Klal Yisroel see the ultimate light very soon in our days.     Thank You Hashem!   No Internet?

Recording this episode just one week after the tragic events in Eretz Yisroel on Simchas Torah, I tried to find the right song that could express the feelings of all Klal Yisroel at this moment. Yaakov Shwekey's "Cry No More" fit the feeling, expressing our sole desire to reunite with Hakadosh Baruch Hu in a world with no more pain and no more tears.   It is my fervent wish that all the Torah learned, tefillos davened, chessed done, and achdus that has been expressed this past week, be the tipping point for Hakadosh Baruch Hu to finally tell us...CRY NO MORE!   This episode is in honor of all Klal Yisroel, of which I'm proud to be a part of. B'zechus a refuah sheleimah to all those injured and b'zechus that all our brothers and sisters in captivity return home.      No Internet? No smartphone? No problem!
