    I can’t hear the question

    Amazing Podcast
    R’ Breitowitz truly has a gift for being able to answer any and all questions that are given to him, and more often than not he is also able to give the source for his answers on the spot. His answers are very easy to understand even when the topic is not so easy. It would be nice if there was a log of questions already asked on a website since many times a question is repeated by the Talmudim, but this is okay since it’s always good to review Torah haha!

    I think Rav Breitowitz is one of the Gedolim of our generation. Such a tzadik and also open minded enough to appeal to those of us with intellectual leanings. G-d bless this podcast
