Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. We are here. We are here. I can't believe we're here. I cannot believe we're here to see Ari in the What a Day headquarters in Brooklyn, New York. Oh, to get a little bit more What a day in the frame instead of my beat pollen over there. I barely get to see you in the in the water a day headquarters and especially now to see you there. mind mindboggling. This is so I can say what I could say what I what I want to say and I'll explain. Um yesterday we didn't do it because I was in heavy transit. I was going through a lot of interesting stuff. I could say it took me 36 hours doortodoor longer than Australia times three than regular way. Um I could say it was surprising to me. This thing was booked like from one second to the next. Somebody pushed me very much to do it. I was advised by two very um um experienced people not to say out in public exactly the route for the right reasons. And even though there's so many things going on on status WhatsApp, it doesn't mean anything until it hits officially LinkedIn and officially YouTube and especially when we have an audience. I'm not risking anything. I'm not talking about it. You guys can guess in the comments. Please tell me welcome home in the comments. I'll take it gladly. So yesterday I could not make it. There was no way. I'm doing a live wherever I was and it just wouldn't work. And I'm saying thank you for your patience. Thank you for your loyalty. And only in these circumstances I would cancel a live otherwise bad mood, bad weather won't stop us. Um so I'm very very very very excited and delighted to be here. It's surreal. It's surreal. I did vlog about it. I do have a whole um documentary of the way which I will release as soon as things come down and and stuff even though it would be 10 times more popular right now if I would have given it out right now and I know it but I'm not going to do something that's not right because I just want to live my life. It's uh harsh enough for me to sit here while knowing that in Israel sirens and running to shelter which that topic I can talk about forever. I can talk about the surprising shabas and I can talk about the sirens if you want. You can ask me questions about that. Right. So let's let's just recap. So first of all, whoever's on live, please be so kind, right? Welcome back. Right. Good to see you, Ari. show some love. Um, we're very excited to have Ira back here. That's number one. Number two, sure a lot of you have seen that we didn't have the show yesterday. So, that's what I was explaining why we did not have the show because everybody knows that I was in Israel, but why we didn't have the show. People don't know. So, he was in transit yesterday and we're not going to reveal right now. One day we will hopefully the right time. Very soon very soon. Yes. So, tune in. Make sure you're following Ari status. Make sure you're following this live show not to miss out any exciting updates on that. Well, what we're going to dive into now is how was Ahri's trip? How was Arri's trip to because obviously there's some something going on there and we'll hear firsthand and if you didn't see it yet, I did I I did see some things that you posted, but let's hear firsthand. Tell us a little bit how the trip was. How was the recordings of the what a day is that we saw a little bit live and then what happened when you were supposed to leave? So, by the way, I was supposed to I was scheduled for Thursday. I was supposed to leave on Thursday. Everything would have been fine. But on Tuesday or Wednesday, I can remember somebody booked another episode of What a Day and convinced me to stay till Friday morning, which I didn't know was an option. And I booked my Friday morning flight. United Airlines. I was so excited that there's a flight. When when they would have when my father would have made Kdish and I left that morning, I would have still been on the flight. Like it was a weird thing that I never done before. I would have landed four hours before this man. I think I told you that already on the live. Yeah. Yeah. And on Thursday. Yep. And then everything should have been fine. I was dabbing that the flight should go relaxed in a good way and we should come on time and I should come on time for Chabis. You're gonna shower, walk into Sheila, and that's it. And a Thursday night, we finish filming about 1:00 am in Tel Aviv, which is supposed to be an hour away from Shalim. We drive back in the dark. There's this huge um um what do you say? Traffic. Real traffic. They're working on the road. I'm not sure. We're sitting parking lot out of Tel Aviv on the way to sitting on the highway for a long time. We finally make it home about 3 a.m. something like that. I get organized to go to sleep and I realize that I'm running to the airport in four hours. I still want to make a shower maybe nets. I don't have really time to sleep. I said, "Okay, I'll sleep on the flight already. In the meantime, I'll say good night to my wife in America." So, I call her up and I say, "Listen, we have a few hours. I'm going to run to the flight. I don't know if I'll catch you. I just want to say everything was fine. I arrived." As I'm telling her these things, there's a siren. That siren changed the life for thousands of mil for millions of people. For millions of people changed their lives that time, changed their plans for the next who knows how long. And for hundreds of thousands of people in any other country and in Israel changed, cancelled all the flights. Poof. Just like that. My friend that traveled with me, came for the episode, was on the way to the airport. He calls me. I just arrived at the airport. There's no lights, no electricity, you know, nothing. Everything is shut. They took away the airplanes. They shut the airport totally. They shut the lights. And this guy arrived at the airport like Mish a few minutes after this this whole lockdown. He didn't know. Someone traveled with you. Someone traveled with me. Um not no we travel for the same purpose meaning one of the episodes one of the water days I had four in total both of them one of them somebody came from here he he has organization that covers Israel and America and we were supposed we were filming stuff in Israel and he came for that that was that full night mil and stuff so I was I was on my schedule he was on his schedule but he was supposed to leave four hours before for me. He left us at 6:00 a.m. supposed to leave and he arrived and and the airport is out. And I'm like, "Okay, you know, we're we're both we we want we would like to solve this together, but I obviously we can't. We're two different flights." I'm telling my wife as we speak. Okay, there's a siren. I hope they don't cancel my flight. Five minutes later, literally, the news is full. Everybody should stay home. There's no flights for the next who knows how long. I'm like telling my wife, "Okay, I don't think I'm being home for Shabas. Let's plan this out. It's Friday morning, Thursday night in America." And my kids were already excited. Okay, that top that I I don't really like talking about it. Definitely not. But it was a challenge. Okay. My kids were like, "That is coming on Chavez." And that that was the first hit. Then I realized I don't have a I don't have a kitchen. I don't have Zen in Bells. We needed glasses off for this chas because it was chasing. My parents live in Bel. So if I would walk out of the house, I need glasses off and I need chav shoes which I didn't have. Wow. I did not know. No, honestly that's one that's one game that you have. I mean that that we have. It happened. It has happened in the past year. People got stuck for Shabas or whatever. They come back. But the difference is over here you can wear whatever you want. So you give a dashik and the guy a pair of sneakers and perfect. So I was like when I was thinking about that I'm like oh now he's gonna wear I'm like and I can't be telling me like there's a open and I'm like oh yeah you bet. No no no I was in Bel. So if I would have been in any other place in the country which is not meaning it's not it could be but not I could have gone. I could have gone anywhere. the one I use for for the cedar but I know if I want to walk out of the house to minion anywhere even not in a bell of shield it's in bells I need to put on it's like being walking out just going to say that I was just going to say that it happened so much times also that I'm like last second the didn't fit me or the whatever and I'll need to borrow from someone and I'm like there's no way I'm going without right so the lack Actually, you saw that gave me this jub beautiful, beautiful piece, which I'm considering like I'm writing it down. It was just so beautiful. Wow. It was actually a but it was more beautiful than the reg than the regular that I wanted to buy. That's my opinion, my humble opinion. And it was lightweight. It was jubile. So, at first I felt weird going into like that, but I didn't have much of a choice. But people were complimenting me about it which was funny. Here's a borrow. He just borrowed it to me. Hear that? I got stuck in this. Then I put on a bag for my brother. It was fine. The gle was it was falling down the whole shop. I didn't know how to handle that. And then the bus is open. My father gave me and and he had some old pair of shoes. It worked out. I felt funny but it worked out. I went to shield. So I had I had a very nice chabas. I was exhausted from the whole week. I was planning to sleep on the flight which I didn't get. So I went to sleep on the throughout the shabasing again shabas off there was a kid dish and there was this and that. We started to see the shabas morning like 3:30 p.m. So I I got like pockets of sleep here and there here and there. And then Shabas was over and I'm like running to the news like okay maybe they'll open up you know ll has the to have flights in in in harsh times you know and it says nothing before Tuesday or Thursday bookings. So my travel agent, Wolf, my cousin, he already put me on every single available flight, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. He knew that they're not they're probably going to keep cancing and he's going to at least have some kind of help. Then I I arranged already a computer with Stfansky's episode which I listen to this podcast, listen to this live and help me finish in time. In two days from now they're starting. It usually takes me two to three weeks to edit an episode. Sorry. I'm still organized. I'm still considering it. You should I'm considering it. Take upon yourself only the first four daff do something. Don't I had a question. I know we're going a little off topic, but when doing the da like when you're saying doing the da and you're talking with belly, is that mean like listening to his she or it just means even learning for my to myself the d? You can learn to yourself as much as you want. I myself personally I'm not single to learn myself. It's very hard for me to open the gim itself. I spoken about it publicly first time now on this episode just because I I Oh, we spoke about on the library already. Yep. Oh, we spoke about it. Okay. So, I myself would never do it by myself. Also, if you're doing it by yourself, why not doing a belly? You can do it on on speed, too. But seeing those charts, when I say charts, it doesn't mean the boxy thing that you remember starts out and I buy on the other side. No, his charts are alive. It has characters. If he's speaking about there's like a whole AI personality like that and and they all interact with each other. It's not charts. It's AI movies that he does for the D. You're going to love it. And you can do it on any speed and you can pause any time. You can continue whenever you want. And the email I I just love it. I I really really love it. Maybe I should put in the comments the link to the to sign up with him. But it's it's absolutely amazing and uh and is a good opportunity because it starts very easy. So I really know that giving out this episode in this time would be mish a bigger gain for me for the Hebrew Shia. Um so I really want I'm trying but it's it's a lot of work. So I'm still teeth in the middle. Um, so I was set up. I was sitting with my computer there. I was editing away. And this guy that I have spoken to that I that came with me, he didn't have any place to be for Chavez. He was stuck in the airport with zero plans. He ended up going to one of his donors in which is not a city at all that he has. He landed by his house for no plans and he was there. Now multis he started doing anything to find a way out because he doesn't have family. He doesn't he's sitting and eating maha. It's it's not it's not the ultimate. I was by my parents. I said okay whenever it opens it opens. In the meantime maybe I'll do I even have three new leads for no more episodes. I even had a podcast lined up to do in Israel. I was like okay I'm getting into the mode. You know I'll be here two weeks probably. So I I'll I'll do my thing. I forgot about that that you have your parents there. And I was like, I saw for sure you booked a hotel. I'm like, oh gosh, where's I was sitting by my parents. I had a blast. I was set up. I had my computer. I had my hard drive. Everything was set up and he started calling me that he found episode and he heard it works and he and he has to have him with me because I'm his buddy. He was calling me every five minutes. First I I told him, "Yeah, I'll see. I thought it last month he's going to fall off." He didn't stop. So I called my travel agent but my travel agent was still it was still America. He was still sleeping. So kind of Sunday afternoon is only when I got my first answer from the travel agent. He told me buddy before two weeks you're not getting out of there and I'll already cancelled everything for two weeks. So before two weeks you're not getting out of there. when somebody tells me before two weeks and he's the travel agent that always finds bookings, he's probably three weeks, maybe four weeks. And then I had a thought. I said, "Okay, if I'm going to be stuck here for two weeks at least, maybe three, and know that I had this opportunity with this guy to book it, I'm going to regret it so badly." So then I really considered it. And within three hours, I was just in a car. I I I I left. So, I just threw everything into the envelope. I didn't take any food with me. I had cookies and pretzels. That's all I had for 36 hours. Yeah, but you sent me that picture. Remember, you sent me like a picture middle. Yeah. You don't even know what I was thinking. I don't even I should say that, you know, like I was thinking, you know, like maybe your phone got hacked. Wow. There was times that I was mama shivering, but uh I'm so glad I'm so glad I came to Newark and they were questioning the other guy. What it's I don't know. I'm scared to start talking because I'm going to I'm going to talk away my way. So I rather leave this maybe tomorrow, maybe two days, whatever. Be very soon that we can talk openly about it. But I'm really really so relieved being here. The hug that I got from my kids today morning. I wish every single viewer over here from the depth of my heart, you should experience it. You should understand the value. When I dice today in in in in in Yeah. When I d every day, it had a new meaning. It had a new appreciation. I went to the coffee station. I had a coffee. I was like, "Wow, I have warm water and coffee." It was such a blessing. We don't appreciate our lives until even parts of it is taken away and then we o we should appreciate we should appreciate a house, a wife, a kids, a bed. We should we have so much to appreciate. You should just know. You know, you know what I'm thinking now? As you're talking here, there I remind myself of lines or things that I heard from you that impact me forever, but I don't even realize. But as you're talking now, I'm remembering after October 7, you got up there and said, you said that you went and you hugged and you kissed every single one of your kids and you tell everybody go and do it because who knows? I'm thinking now since then, I hug and kiss my kids differently. And I'm remembering now it came from when I I heard you saying that. Wow. So then I was like, "Oh, come on. Come on." You know, in our minds, we we don't even realize we think so. If we would have a debate with ourselves, we would take it off right away. But if we think that we have at least 100 more years, we don't realize how in a second in a second things can change so drastically and every I don't want to say stuff, you know, I don't need to give ideas but my is two years younger than me. My was when he was 36 and left eight kids. I'm 38. Mhm. Um and so many of even just even just the fact let's say somebody's stuck in a country that he can't get out of just even if you're busy with work find time by hook and by crook appreciate your life more say I you know how I said on the coffee you You know how high I D shak is today. I should D sh like this every day. Right. I should. Right. We We all should appreciate more life. We don't realize we're sitting here in America. The sirens I didn't talk about the sirens at all. I didn't talk a minute about the sirens. Every few hours there are sirens that goes on. There are people that take it more serious. There are people that take it less serious. Are you still there? You froze. I can't see you. You totally froze on me. I don't know if you still here. If you can still hear me. If you can, maybe you should refresh your page and come back in. Um, I'm going to continue discussing the sirens. Um, I did not know what it looks like, but when the sirens goes on, there's people that get nervous and there's people that don't. Most of the time, ironically, when everybody gets a text, right, it's just like a flooding in New York. He goes all the phones at once. Your mom is like, "It's a it's a small uh he fell out." So, probably he's refreshing his page. Um, it's like a small earthquake when everybody around you, everybody has their phones, and you know that within 10 minutes there's missiles coming in or drones, whatever you call them. And ironically, all the bam run out of shield. All the tatas run out of shield. And they start watching the the drones coming in and the interception. It's a very interesting. It's a very um exciting. Let me see what Isaac is writing. One second. He's writing something. Lost connection. Okay. I hope that I'm not talking to the wall. I'm trying to reconnect. Let me ask him. Am I Oh, there he is. There you are. Can you hear me? Yeah, I hear you. Perfect. Wow. You think that it kept go? It was still live the last few minutes when I spoke. So, I got a notification. It said, "Oops, lost connection." And then you I I was still hearing you, but you were frozen. I was like, "Okay, fine. That's fine." Okay. And then all boom, I got booted out. So, the question is if we're still live or not. How can we find out we're live? Because Yeah. First of all, no, no, no. First of all, oh, okay. Someone's saying, "Hi." Hey, I remember him. Um, now it's it's I still got the option to to click end stream. So, if someone's here live, could you say hi or live? There is one comment from someone that I believe that I worked in in the past. So, there's another thing because on my YouTube channel being that it has the word west in it, it goes west. So really? Yeah. So we're like So we got like a different type of crowd. Yeah. Listen, you said now we're a real channel, right? Wow. That is so interesting. Um so let me just say in in case we're still live and everything, I was explaining that ironically everybody gets a buzz. Everybody you heard that part, right? Yeah. So, so ironically, everybody runs out of shield to watch this rocket show. It's a beautiful thing to watch. I also watched it. But on the Sunday night, I think there was two direct hits into shields and there was a direct hit in Batam which killed people, but everybody that made it into shelter did not get killed and another story. So, people started taking this serious. So now people already go into shelter but I myself including thousands of people did not go in. So shabas after ding there was sirens going on in the ding but we didn't hear there's thousands of people in you don't hear anything I walk out of shield my heart was pounding because of the booms the booms are so loud the interception when they hit in the sky we saw a a couple tens tens of of drones and things flying and you see the boom and you see stuff falling down to earth. It is very scary because if it falls on us, we're toast because one time you were showing how tons of missiles were flying and there was no siren, right? So, it could be two things. First of all, it could be I missed the siren. It could be that it's far enough from my immediate area, although it looks close on the phone. It looks close. You see it close, but it's above a different city. So, it's there's no sirens of my city. that also could not I'm not sure it is when you see that time on Friday night there was much more much more but I there was no phones then there was no there was no uh um footage there was I was together with thousands of people and bells but shabas off standing outside why everybody's screaming from excitement and what my heart was telling because these blasts they're like boom they're so strong you can feel them in your stomach it's these these missiles are like 25 m I think it's like almost 50 feet long and it's like a it's like a bus on fire longer than a bus I don't know how 50 feet and the the blast is so loud and the pieces that fall are so large it's really dangerous so the logic behind these people they say listen if it falls anyway I'm anyway dead so I might as well be you know it's a small chance but it's a big chance happens to be and now people taking it more serious I'm glad I'm not there because I couldn't. In my parents house, there's no safe room. It's still very old. My my parents house is more than 40 years old. So, there's no more than 40. So, 45 years old. So, there's they didn't build safe rooms yet. So, the safe place is the um staircase and squeezing in a small staircase with all my bells and neighbors, not me. So, I wasn't running. I apologize. I wasn't. I'm sorry. So, it's good that I came back. I I I I couldn't have uh do that do that game. It's not for me. So, let's say what would happen if let's say you heard it while you were in Bells over there. What what happens to all the thousands of people there? Everybody runs. The shield itself is much safer. It's a very big concrete structure is very safeish. And again, we believe that the bell zoo covers the entire bells. We truly believe that. So we're not so scared. B's there. Um, good. But the the Oh, there's supposed to be a wedding tomorrow in Bel Jumag's wedding in a stadium and everything is cancelled. They're doing the wedding a very small crowd in a bombshell in like a safe safe room. They told everyone, all the in the whole world to have just a live uh footage, live screen and stay home. Everybody stays home. the book stay in yeshiva from a safe room. So they limited this wedding to like no people from one minute to the next. Friday everything was ready and and now four days later there's nothing going on. So um yeah, it's very interesting. I think we did good. It's 26 minutes. I'm still a little tired. Uh, I still want to try to finish the the Rebelli. If you have any questions, you can always comment below. Maybe on my LinkedIn page, I can answer you uh later and hopefully we see you tomorrow at the same time. Bleeder, I want to I'm looking forward to that. What a day for because I'm starting to get inspired. Maybe, you know, we could do some type of four days. Try it for four days. see what it does to you. So, when does this starts on Friday? Friday. Well, you can already start today. You know, your four days can start today. Um, yes, I'm looking forward. I want to I want to see it. And you never know, maybe we'll do some type of commitment for the daily live show. It'll be some nice to mix in some commitment as well. Yeah. Yeah, that would be a kiddishm and medit. Yeah, we'll we'll we'll see everyone live tomorrow. Hopefully, we'll be back at the regular time, 100 pm Eastern, um 1000 p.m. Pacific and today we started a little bit earlier because I obviously have a lot to say. So, we got a little head start and also I got to hop off a little early today. So, we got a little early start, but don't think it's going to be this time. Every day tomorrow will be back to 100 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. Looking forward to seeing you all. Thank you all for that joined live and thank you all that are going to watch it later.
