Best parsha podcast
I've listened to so many parsha podcasts, this is the one I listen to! I absolutely love Rabbi Wolbe's voice, and the way he breaks down the weekly parsha makes it enjoyable and easily digestible. The exquisite insights are by far my favorite part I could listen to just that! I really love how he makes complex ideas of the Torah accessible to even a Balt Teshuva such as myself. Thank you so much, you truly are a tzadik!
A joyous voice
Listening to Rabbi Wolbe’s joyful voice and his sense of humor while learning the intricacies, nuances and power of Torah is a fascinating experience for anybody looking to develop their own personal relationship with the Jewish nation. I look forward to each episode. B”H
