Street Farbrengen Episode 101 - Yud-Tes Kislev a moment or a checkbox? 31:17

1d ago31:17

31:17

In this episode, we take on a quiet but uncomfortable question: what does it mean when our relationship with G-d becomes transactional—show up, punch in, punch out, move on? Through a raw, sometimes tense conversation, we explore the Frierdiker Rebbe’s piercing claim that the root of all negative traits is not sin, but comfort with mediocrity. Not …

Street Farbrengen Episode 100 - Faith, Helplessness and the Quest for Control 50:40

7d ago50:40

50:40

This week on Street Farbrengen, we start with an uncomfortable moment in shul. Someone tells me straight out: “My problem with Chabad is you think you have the emes – the truth of truths.” And I answered him, “You’re right. We do.” But under that answer is something much deeper: Chabad doesn’t live with a transactional relationship with Hashem. Fro…

Street Farbrengen Episode 99- Fighting “isms” is obsolete - the real war is honesty 36:48

10d ago36:48

36:48

What do you do when the farbrengen glow wears off and it’s just you… and your phone? In this week’s Street Farbrengen, we start from a Yud Kislev fabrengen and ask a very uncomfortable question: Is there even such a thing as “inspiration” in our generation anymore — and if yes, where is it supposed to come from? We push back on the quiet assumption…

Ever walk out of a great shiur or powerful davening totally on fire… and by 11:30 AM you’re scrolling, annoyed at people, and can’t even remember what you decided that morning? That’s where this week’s Street Farbrengen starts. Reuven puts a raw question on the table with Zakaria: “How come I learn every morning that the mind is supposed to direct …

This week on Street Farbrengen, Zacharya pushes back on something Reuven brought to the farbrengen that many may feel but rarely say out loud: Is the Rebbe the mission? We go straight for the jugular: What happens when the Rebbe — or “being Lubavitch” — quietly becomes the goal instead of the path? When wearing the right slogan, screaming the right…

Street Farbrengen Episode 96 - J'accuse - Unspoken post-traumatic stress syndrome- Chabad Style 49:02

1M ago49:02

49:02

As we approach our 100th episode, Zacharia and Reuven turn the mic inward — to the Chabad community itself. We began nearly a year ago, with a simple question: Has Chabad’s leadership been living with unspoken post-traumatic stress since Gimmel Tammuz? Now, a powerful anonymous letter has surfaced - in response to the recent suicide of a young man …

Opening the Windows and Doors This Week’s Street Farbrengen When Chassidus stays in the head, it turns into philosophy. The mind is dazzled, but the heart and soul remain hungry. Prayer, seen through the lens of dirah betachtonim—making a dwelling place for G-d—means inviting Him into the tachtonim: the world of distraction, anxiety, and daily pres…

“Hey friends, welcome back to Street Farbrengen. We’re in that first quiet week after the many holidays of the Tishrei month, stepping into Mar-Cheshvan, where the calendar goes from fireworks to ordinary but Dynamic . And a real question hits: did anything actually change? Is my sigh of relief for the return to the same old rhythm an indication of…

Street Farbrengen Episode 93 - Journals, coffee counters, and a lifetime later 38:07

3M ago38:07

38:07

At Starbucks this week, Reuven’s daily journaling yanked him back 50 years—to a 3 AM café in Vancouver, same pen, same seeker. From Vancouver nights to the Rebbe’s court: am I the “same guy,” or did I just change what I’m looking at? What if that’s exactly what Selichos is—teshuvah not as self-replacement, but re-aiming the lens. Hear the convo on …

Street Farbrengen Episode 92 - Bittul Reframed: Jewish Independence 42:24

3M ago42:24

42:24

Americana glorifies the lone cowboy, the self-made man, the myth of total independence. But what happens when the Rebbe redefines independence — not as isolation, but as a deeper kind of freedom within Jewish life? In this farbrengen, we wrestle with the tension between American individualism and the hidden power of Chai Elul. Can you be truly inde…

In this week’s Street Farbrengen, Reuven shares a gripping “Hasidic geneiva” Yechidus story that an elder chossid confided to him—how, at his brother’s bar mitzvah, he slipped the Rebbe a three-page letter about a toxic mashpia, his confusion, and the urge to leave yeshiva. The Rebbe’s response was razor-clear: in Lubavitch there are always two mas…

Are We Living Our Spirituality Dynamically? In this week’s episode of Streetfarbrengen we dive into a thought-provoking question sparked by a morning shul conversation: Do we live our spirituality symbolically, practically, or dynamically?

Street Farbrengen Episode 85 - Forward Momentum 21:22

6M ago21:22

21:22

Chassidic circles stress the story of the spies' reluctance to enter Israel as the choice for spiritual isolation and comfort over the task of grappling with the physical realities of turning a land ( of Israel) into a heavenly oasis. How is it possible not to be eaten alive by the time consuming and emotional rollercoaster of making a living, rais…

Street Farbrengen Episode 84 - “Endlessness" 29:39

6M ago29:39

29:39

We often call success winning, like when you cross the goal line. We look to the end of the line, to know the end game, and to finding our cherished goal at the “end of the rainbow.” There is the “ end of days.” When Zechariah and Reuven last met they pledged to contemplate for 30 days the scene of Rabbi Akiva by the river seeing a constant drip of…

Street Farbrengen Episode 83 - “Are you Rocking it?" 29:01

7M ago29:01

29:01

A Street Farbengen is a focus on the road; on the path to take after all the talk and exchange between friends. Reuven and Zacharia continue the focus on Rabbi Akiva by the river. A constant drip on a rock burrows an indent. So too, thinks Rabbi Akiva, can the Torah drill a hole in my heart. Sometimes the rock is the dream unheeded and met. Sometim…

Rabbi Akiva saw drops of water falling on a stone making a deep hole. What power there is in a drop of water,” thought Rabbi Akiva. “Could my stony heart ever be softened up that way?” Lag B'omer is the Yom Halula of the Holy Rashbi. His teacher Rabbi Akiva gives us the picture of how to approach the 'stones and boulders' along the path's we walk. …

Street Farbrengen Episode 81 - Iyar's Chassidic Health Crisis 32:09

7M ago32:09

32:09

The letters of the month Iyar are an acronym for “I am G-d your healer.” What is your attitude towards health? Do you believe that good health is a gift from heaven, our days are numbered anyway and health is not your issue; or, is health a gift package from heaven which must be opened, user - manual read, then put in the batteries and press “On”? …

Street Farbrengen Episode 80 - “Choose Your Core" 32:38

8M ago32:38

32:38

What did the Rebbe mean when he said on Nissan 28th “I have done what I can do ... and now I give it over to you?” Was he intimating retirement, or even 3 Tammuz? Reuven suggests that we had it all wrong. The 28th of Nissan is not a lesser relationship between Chassid and Rebbe, but a stronger one more than ever. “ Most of us sat at farbrengens at …

Be it in business, sports, and even in health, there is an emphasis on “The Target”, where is the bullseye, what’s your target? Reuven asks what is the target of a Chassid? We read that a Tzaddik is not the goal, and halavay, it should be a Benoni for an hour! So then do we conclude we have no target?! What’s the target you have in mind for yoursel…

Street Farbrengen Episode 77 - “Through the looking glass of Leaving Egypt " 29:26

9M ago29:26

29:26

We enter the starting gate of the season of leaving Egypt. A Chassid asks him or herself “ what area of slavery do I live in?” Living in slavery is also formed in the mind, with a picture you have of yourself deep within. It creates an often unconscious identity, a glass ceiling, to contradict the very goal and desire you have in mind you to accomp…

This episode of Street Farbrengen takes a different look at the time of Hey Teves through Yud Shvat. The relationship between Chassid and Rebbe can be demanding and complex. At its core is "the Rebbe is my Rebbe but am I a Chassid?” Reuven thinks he’s a Trans Chassid! A fun look at being confused and sincere and striving to be a Chassid.…
