for Hey kids, welcome back to the next
episode of the Incredible Kids podcast.
My name is Moat Siri and I will be your
host through this incredible journey. We
are going to meet many incredible kids.
They are going to share with us their
stories. Some of them super cool and
different like you've never heard before
and some you may say are just ordinary,
but all of them incredible. If you have
great ideas, email me today at
[email protected]. And now it's time
for incredible kids. I just killed the
mosquito. That was gross. Um, hi
everybody. Welcome back to another
evening of Tahillim Army. Um, my
personal highlight of the week. And I
think a lot of other people here too. If
Tahill Army Thursday evenings are your
highlight of the week, let me see. Show
me whose highlight of the week it is.
It's amazing. It's unbelievable to see.
And I want to start off by telling you
um that we have a very a very important
and special program for tonight, but I
want to tell you something that I heard
over Pak. Um I don't want to call these
people out, so I'm not going to say
their name because I don't know if
they're comfortable with knowing this,
but I met someone on Pesak who told me
that he lives in Lakewood.
and he said that um he said moriri I
want you to know that there are some
people on your army program who deserve
a shout out and I'm like of course
everyone deserves a shout out on army
right so we try to give as many shout
outs as we can and hopefully at some
point everybody will be able to get that
personal shout out but he said no no no
I need to tell you about my neighbor he
said my neighbors
um you know their family their parents
like a lot of parents don't really love
when their Kids use technology like you
know use having too much we call it
screen time where you're you know
watching things a lot especially in when
it's good weather especially since it
fries your brain right so the parents um
he said my neighbor's parents said you
know what we're doing a like a contest
in our family um if everyone in our
family keeps to this contest the contest
is that you could only go on screens
like you can only do something with
technology like we're doing right now,
right? This is over technology. So if
you're here, it's probably because your
parents allow it. So hopefully, right?
Um and they said you can choose one hour
a week. One hour a week to go on
technology. So whatever you want to do,
whether it's I guess computer games or
watch a video, whatever you want to do,
you have one hour a week of technology.
And he said, "I want you to know that my
neighbor and their mother said, oh, the
mother said, if you go um and follow
this family plan of one hour week of
technology, then you get to come to
Eritis." Who wa that's a really good
prize that they're going they're going
to take a family trip to Israel or I
guess the parents will take the kid. I
don't know.
Anyways, this girl, as you can probably
guess, he said, "My neighbor um decided
that her one hour a week of technology
is going to be that hour or however long
it takes of Helm army." She told her
family, "I am dedicated to the Tahelm
army and that is my 1 hour a week of
technology." And wow, like that's what
she chose. That's what she chose over
any sort of entertainment that she can
get because I don't know. and and and if
this person wants to share publicly with
us what why she made that choice, she
can reach out to me and let me know and
and maybe one day we'll hear it from her
directly. But I said to this boy, I
said, "Okay, your neighbor deserves a
shout out." So, big shout out to you if
you're listening wherever you are in
Lakewood. Um, and if you're not with us,
maybe your neighbor will tell you or
whatever. Um, but I found that to be
very, very inspiring, but not surprising
because I've heard so many stories and
I've seen so much dedication from
incredible kids just like you from all
over the world who are either with us
live now or watching these recordings
and saying to Helen with the recordings,
mind you, you know, um, we have a lot of
listeners. So, shout out to people in
England who are going to be watching
this on the recording whenever whenever
I get around to posting it. Um and and
it's very very very special that they
prioritize and they don't just watch it
for entertainment. They say to hill with
us, they sing with us, dive in with us,
whatever we're doing. So, thank you all
for being here. And tonight, I also got
a little bit of a disheartening message
that means like a message that made me
sad. Um and make sense. I think it's
going to make you a tiny bit sad too or
very whatever. Um, and this message was
from an incredible mother, somebody from
the Telm army, and she said, "My
daughter loves tom army and and um she
just found out that her cousin is 15
years old in Aratis and he was just hurt
in a situation going on in our part of
the whole war, part of the terrorism,
part of why we need Mashiach and we're
dabbing for him. So I'd like to have in
mind tonight in our Yona Ben Shaina
Rifka." Yona ben Shaina Rifka. Please
give him a shima and peace in our and
please so soon. Um we're going to do
we're going to dab in of course for the
hostage of the night who I'll say their
name later. Um so keep yours nearby and
we are so privileged tonight that in
just a minute or two I am going to
introduce our special guest named David
Roberg um who is joining us live and
we're going to sing with him. I don't
know if you guys have been listening to
a lot of ac cappella music. I just know
that whenever we get in the car, within
about probably two seconds, everyone
says, "Put on music." Does that happen
in your car? Yeah. The Lavines know what
I'm talking about. Yeah. Leia Raisel.
Yep. They know. So, we all like music
and it's a little bit challenging
sometimes to find music that's for Spara
Omar. But we have an answer because
David Roberg has put out his second
harmony album with beautiful, beautiful
song choices with some guest stars on
it. So, I'm so excited that he's coming
on tonight so we can meet the special
person, the singer behind that album,
we're going to get to him in one minute.
I also just want to announce that the
incredible kids um campaign, the
ikrese.com that you guys have all been
um supporting. We have so many teams and
so many people. I want to give a special
shout
out to the Benur family. Um I saw that
they have made like a very unique flyer
to advertise it. Right. Is that you Sar
Miriam? Let me just look at her for one
second. This is the face of a girl who's
working so hard. Hi, thank you so much
um for working so hard on the campaign
and so many of you as well. Um and if
you have not checked out the prize
booklet or the prize flyer or whatever
you want to call it, it is available
online. I did I say agures.com with
a.org. Wait, no, I'm forgetting what it
is.
Is it glam
or.org? It's or I think, right?
Or my brain is fried. igres.org. Okay,
good. Thanks. Um, anyways, so the prize
booklet is on there. It's super
exciting. And this is the time to like
and like get everybody to give their
donations because soon the campaign will
be closed out and then everybody can
trade it in for um the prizes that you
deserve. But the real prize of course is
getting a and being part of something so
special like this organization all you
know all the good stuff. More on that
soon. I have a um a very important
announcement to make. So after we sing
with David Robert I'm going to announce
a special contest that I have for people
who have campaign pages. Special contest
that starts tonight as soon as the Hill
Army is finished. Okay. So without
further ado and remember that our
singing whether it's happy tunes or
soulful tunes that come with like a lot
of like beautiful you know coming from
the heart it's all tilos especially if
you're saying holy words they all can be
tilos if we just put our hearts into it
and have in mind the situation in our
Israel
um people that need felos in your
families um people that you know in your
community people that we don't even know
because we're all one family.
Okay. What? Someone just Okay, now I'm
looking it up. Hold on. Ben Seion's
telling me it's IKEA. I'm I'm telling
you this is like this is what he's
right. It's ikra.com. I said it right
the first time. It's
ikra.com. It is. Thank you. It really
is. I know. We're just You know, thank
you, Benion. Okay, David Rberg, you can
unmute yourself. Welcome to the Tahillim
Army. We're very excited to have you.
Thank you. Thank you so much. Um, where
are you joining us from? I'm actually in
Muny right now. I live in Payic. Shout
out Payic. Um, okay. Shout out to Muny
and Pay. Shout out to Muny and Pay.
And a lot of people asked me, by the
way, when they saw that you were coming
on, they said, "I'm confused. Is he from
Baltimore or from somewhere else?" And I
said, "I actually know the answer to
that, but I can let you say why do
people think that you might be from
Baltimore?" So I actually I sing it I
have this to sing in a lot of kasas in
Baltimore. Um and it's a long drive from
Pay. So every time I do there people say
you you must live here, right? And I say
no actually I live in Pay. Um so yeah
that that throws some people off. Do you
got a lot of speeding tickets? No. Oh I
do. I got a lot of speeding tickets on
the 95. Be careful when you're driving
to Baltimore. There are cameras. I just
know that if you're driving you probably
make the drive a lot and you probably go
when there's like no cars on the road.
So, like it's so tempting and sometimes
you literally go like two miles over and
then you get a ticket in the mail and
it's not fun. Um, but we are so happy to
have you on tonight. I particularly,
like you heard before, have been
pounding your music on uh 246 in the
car, whatever. And and and you you have
a a beautiful voice, but you also have a
very um you have a very good taste for
good song choices to cover. and you kind
of you kind of nailed all the songs that
people want to hear and sing along with.
So, can't wait to see what you chose to
sing with us tonight. And I'll let you
uh introduce I guess yourself and what
you're going to sing with us. Thank you
so much. So, my name is David Rockberg.
Um I love to sing. I've always loved to
sing even like when I was a little kid
like I I would you know just sing for my
family and I joined some choirs. Um, and
like I always like it's it's like such a
to be able to to sing and to to uplift
um and to mazic people. Um, I I want to
say it's so incredible what you guys are
doing. Like you you guys are literally
like holding up the world with youras
like you know especially nowadays we
need every single that we can get every
single word. Um, and what you know what
you guys what moriri what you guys are
doing together is it's incredible. It's
like really like I I'm like I get a lot
of inspiration from it and I know that
people all around the world are inspired
by you guys. So So keep doing what
you're doing. Um like really every
single one of you should be like
incredibly proud of yourself and and you
know and proud of yourselves. It's it's
it's really amazing. Um something I
wanted to share about music is that it's
so cool that music it can make you
dance. You know, let's say you put on,
you know, you put on a fast song and it
can make you dance and and and you're
excited. And it could also, you know,
when you're domining, it could help you
dive into Hashem. Like, let's say you're
saying hala, um, you know, or Cabal
Chavez, it could, you know, it could be
something that connects you, you know,
in in like a in like a inspirational
way, like a in like a slow song way. So,
it's so cool like like something like
that could, you know, that could make
you dance. It can make you go like crazy
and just like be like super excited and
and connect to Hashem in that way and it
could also connect you to Hashem
through. Um so this past week was the
yard site of Rakari Wallerstein who was
an incredible sadic. Um he he always
like he made sure that there was schools
for you know everyone had like a perfect
school for them. Um and make sure
everyone was happy and like he he viewed
every he viewed every yid as like a
beautiful nishama kind of like a
butterfly like a butterfly is like you
know it's supposed to soar and like you
know and and he viewed every yid as as a
butterfly. Um, and after he was nifter,
Schulam Leur and Ab Rottenberg wrote a
song called Butterfly. Um, and it's
actually my cousin's favorite song,
Mosha Barasi. Shout out Mosha Baraski.
Um, so I want to start with that song.
If you know the, you know, if you know
the words, sing along. Um, so yeah, so I
wanted to start with that. There are
times when I stand by a
mirror to take a close look at
myself and the face that I see looking
right back at me wishes it was someone
else. But
there only one you. A fragment of life
from
above that would joyfully serve and
cling to
[Music]
a knew the depth of his love. Time to
leave your cocoon, my dear
butterfly, and show yourself in the
world just how very high you can fly.
You can soar once you unlock the door.
And Hashem will be there at your
side. And Hashem will be there at your
side. Wow. Guys, thank you so much for
singing along. Wow. Um, the second song
I wanted to sing. Wait, I just want to
add one thing to that. I have I have to
say I This is something I need to
Oopsie. I don't know what you just said.
Oh, I have to unmute myself for because
um that song you asked me before. You
said I'm going to sing Butterfly. Is it
too Is it too mature for kids? And I
would like to say it is I mean, first of
all, we're very mature. Who's mature
here? Who's so mature? We're all very
mature. Um and and yeah, so I I would
like to say that kids these days, they
like the same songs as adults. Like they
do. Like I I know that my own kids like
sing the same songs that I sing and and
these other kids, they all they love
this song. And um we actually me and my
daughters, we went to record Butterfly
at a recording studio just for
ourselves. And and I'm not sharing that
with everybody. Um but when I went the
the the recording studio person told me,
she's like, "Oh boy, you have no you
have no idea how many kids already
recorded this song." So obviously it's a
song that talks to a lot of people's
namas and and some every time I listen
to it
um we listen to it in the car today
because we have a minhug in our family
that when a guest on the tahel army is
coming on we have to only listen to
their music in the car that day. So we
have did a lot of hakana for you
tonight. And when we were listening to
that song that you have on your album
for the AC capella music, which you guys
could hear later, um I was like, "Oh my
gosh, I never thought about it." Um
there are times when I look in the
mirror to take a close look at myself
and the face that I see looking right
back at me wishes it was someone
else. That's so And I paused it and I
was like, "That's so sad. Imagine you
looked in the mirror and you're like, I
don't I don't want to be that
person. How terrible would that be?" And
my kids are embarrassed of me probably,
but they were like, "Hey, ma, put it
back
on." But it's it's we should never feel
that way. And if you do look in the
mirror and you wish you were the cool
girl next door or somebody else, you
need to make sure that you remember that
you're a butterfly. Okay, I'm going to
be quiet now.
Cheer us up now.
So the second So the second song is by
Morai Shapiro, Benny Friedman, and Matt
Dub. It's called I'm sure a lot of you
guys know this song. It's very popular
atas. People love to to sing it during
second dance. So, if you know the song,
definitely sing along. Clap along. Um,
okay. It goes like this.

Thank you guys. That was awesome. Um the
the I want to do one more song. Um so
the the this song I really connect to.
First of all, it's like a very catchy
song and I'm sure a lot of you guys know
this song. It's it's been very popular
this year. Um and the high part, three
of the words is our
ojo. Um and it's, you know, it's very
important like you know sometimes things
are amazing. Sometimes things are harder
to see. It's it's hard to see how
amazing things are. But we know that
Hashem loves us and we know that that
you know and and and and it's easy to
see that everything is amazing because
if if it's happening it means that
Hashem wants it to happen. So we say to
it's it's all it's all for the good.
It's you know gams tova and if we you
know if we you know you know as we're
doing and and it kind of connect it
connects to like what we're doing right
now. We're saying to him and we're
doving to Hashem and we say that like
you know Hashem knows what's best best
for us and whatever happens it's you
know it's all going to be good. And if
we if we tell ourselves this then then
you know every moment is going to be
amazing because we know that it's it has
you know it has its its purpose and we
know why it's happening. So if you know
the words sing along.

[Music]
Wow, that guys that was amazing. That
was amazing. You guys are awesome.
Amazing. Amazing energy. Thank you so
much for kicking off the evening cuz
this is the focus and then of course the
focus of Tahillim Army is the Tahillim.
And I find that say start starting off
to after a good dancing energy and then
sitting down with our tollim really
grounds us and starting off with a smile
also grounds us. So we're going to we're
going to do that right now. And um David
I I so appreciate you coming here. I
have one follow-up question to something
that you mentioned earlier. Which choirs
were you in? Like a Payic boy choir?
Like what what was the choir? So there's
a choir in Bay called Kenu. Um okay. So
we did there's two different choirs. One
we used to do like performances in like
different nursing homes and that was
that was amazing. There was the the like
the spectators. They loved us. they like
they look forward to every performance
and and sometimes we did concerts in
like the local like the like the Y like
it's like a it's like a a like a big
auditorium and we have like the like the
cool fancy vests and like you know we
have dance moves and and everyone looks
forward to having a solo so that was
that was like really that was awesome.
Is that did you feel like you you got
like a lot of um like confidence from
that as a kid? Yeah, for sure publicly.
Yeah, it just it shows you that that you
like sometimes you're nervous beforehand
and you might think like, you know, I
can't do this, but as soon as you walk
off the stage, you're like, I I did it.
I could like, you know, if I could do
this, I could do anything.
Exactly. And I think also that's really
really nice. A lot of kids do not have
enough opportunities to um to make older
people happy to communicate with them to
see that they get so much pleasure from
especially interacting sing watching
enjoying singing from young kids. So, I
want kids out there to take note that if
you have a nursing home near you or an
older person that you know, your Zadeie
or your friend's grandmother or somebody
that could appreciate a warm smile and
some singing, they're the best audience
cuz you don't even have to I mean, you
happen to have a good voice, but you
don't even have to have a good voice to
make them happy sometimes. Sure. They
love every little Can I ask you
something that's been on my mind? Sure.
Um, I've been thinking, this is really
weird, okay? And and kids out there, I
want you to think about this also. When
I was little, I used to go visit the
nursing home a lot actually. Um, and we
I would go a lot of times on Aros
Shabas. And then when I started to
drive, I would drive my siblings to the
nursing home and we would visit um
people in Muny. There was a place called
the Fountain View. So, it wasn't very
scary. It was more of an assistant
living. So, it wasn't so scary for us to
like ease into like getting to know old
people and we would walk around and we
had all these friends there. Um, and we
would sing songs to them like I'm not
going to sing them but you are my
sunshine and and then we would sing some
like old ones like Hava Nagila like that
kind of thing. So, I was like telling
someone I was asking someone the other
day I'm like when I'm an old lady and
and and people come visit me what are
they going to sing to
me? What are they going to sing? Cuz I
don't want them to sing hava and you are
my sunshine. What do you think David?
What are they going to sing? Yeah. I
think I think really like like whatever
song is like you're like you're you're
but from this time like they're going to
say that's what we're going to sing in
the nursing home. All the people from
our generation they're going to sing
that task.
What do you think? I think I think like
whatever song whatever song like you're
in the mood of in that moment that's
what they're going to sing. Yeah. But
it's going to be like what do you think
it's going to be? It's going to be
something from now, right? What are the
songs they're going to sing then? Yeah.
What's the first song that comes to your
head? Maybe maybe Hashem or like Oh,
that's Yeah. Or maybe Yum Yum or or Oh,
yeah. Yeah. And we'll sing along like
this cuz you're not going to have any
teeth left. All right. Okay. That was
just something on my mind. I want to
Thank you. Hash and and Yum Yum are
definitely good options. Yeah. Or tea.
That's a good one. Yeah, exactly. Okay.
That's something to think about because
we're not going to be the same old
people as the old people now. We'll all
live long healthy lives. Say a mean.
Amen.
Okay. Thank you so much. And if you want
to join us for toll, we would love to
have you join us for and we're going to
get right on to it in the program. Thank
you so much. Big round of applause
everybody for David Rber. Thank you for
having me. Thank you so much. You guys
are amazing. Thank you so much. Thank
you for the energy you brought. It was
very special. And everybody, we're going
to go right on to our Tahillim. So, take
out your limbs. Um, and we are going to
um Okay, let's see. Let's see. Let's
see. We're going to open up to
Parl. Yes,
Parl, which happens to be the same as
last week, I believe. Okay. Um, we're
gonna say Park PL. Um, it And let's see
over here. who has their tahillms out. I
see the Freriedman's and the Robergs.
Are you related to David Rober who was
just
on? No, we just have Jewish names that
all overlap. How fun is that? You guys
all have your own Tahelm tonight. I see
two incredible kids film and two other
really cool ones with illustrations. So,
so nice to see that. Let's see. The
Reese family is already with their
Tahillms. There was a family before that
I Oh, yum. Spaghetti is so good. Can you
slurp it all the way up? No teeth. You
broke it. Okay, try again next time. Um,
let's see. Uh, okay. This was the people
that I saw before that intrigued me. The
Hale
Danzigers. The
Haleadeners. I I like what you did there
in the background. First of all, you do
have your mount. That worked out. They
wrote they made a background. Oh, now
they changed it again. But it said I
love IK. That was really stickicky. I It
stood out at me before. And Oh, hello.
Hi, guys. You are Hale. Yes, I see that.
I see that and it's a haig day because
um it's a hyd because today is the
100th yard site that means exactly a
hundred years ago we there was a big
talc who was nifar named Rav Shia Ben
Rav Mosha from
Krister and I got two different messages
today from
Krister number one people well first
I'll tell you that on this day um today
and the whole week there have been tons
of Jews especially since it's the 100th
yard site which is like a very
monumentous number um and Rafila or
Rafia Ben Rav Mosha um he he was buried
in Kristier and he was a big sadic and
people dav go there to davin for things
all of the time but especially this week
people have been storming the cover from
all all over the world. Um, and I got
two different messages from people today
alone with pictures. I'll show you the
pictures. One of them came from um,
someone here in Baltimore and the other
one came from somebody in Muny and they
both wanted me to see that they brought
um, their Tahillim army to with them to
car to the Kev of Rav Shia Ben Mosha.
And the reason why that's so it it's so
incredible is because it's not kids. It
was their fathers. So their fathers took
the Incredible Kids to Helen because
this Incredible Kids that was probably
used by the kids in their family has so
much kaduca and it's such a good toll
because it's like so easy to read and
it's such a perfect size and it's such a
special safer that they chose to bring
this safer. And then literally right
after that, I got another message from
another incredible kid's father that
says, "All the way in Kristier by Rabb
Shya's yard site." Another one. So then
I I texted the other one. They're eating
food there. I don't know. They're not
diving in this picture. Oh, and then
hold on. And then I got another picture
from the same guy. He wanted me to
see that he was really domining. He was
dabbing so hard with the incredible kids
to heal
him that
he he was dabbing so hard that you know
like you know when you're dabbing so
hard you have to like put your like I'll
show you what I mean like sometimes
someone's dabbing like this and they're
like they're like in it and they're
crying and they're focusing on the words
and then they just need to put their
head down and cry or or really connect
and think. So then they go like this and
then they like put their head on the
thing and then then whatever happens in
their hand is because they're in a
trance and this man was in such a trance
from his felos that he he didn't even
realize that his incredible kids to him
was upside down. Can you see that? I
don't know if you could see it. One
second. Hold
on. You see the upside down Incredible
Kids to Hill right by the cover of Rabia
Ben Mosha. Okay. I really hope that he
was doveting for all of Kalisrael. And
hopefully with all these felos, we're
going to see big things big things
happen for the Jewish people. Um, okay.
So, I'm going to find a Tahelm reader to
lead to Helm for all of us tonight here

Mosha venom
a um tan Danielle, thank you. Being that
you are like a longtime um attendee and
part of the Tahill Army, can you share
and I'm sorry if I'm putting you on the
spot, but I think you can handle it. Can
you share um something that that the
Tahill Army means to you? Like what
makes you show up each time? The fact
that I'm domining for everyone in there
at
how does that make you feel when you are
doing that? Makes me feel um like I
It makes us
feel needed.
You are needed. You're so needed. You're
so needed even without the Helm army,
you know, even if it never existed. But
I'm so happy that this gives you a
chance to actually like feel that on a
weekly basis, right? Well, thank you,
Danielle. Thank you so much. And for any
kid out there who's who who um you know
wants to know more about it, if let's
say it's their first night on, what
could you tell everybody who to like
encourage them to keep saying the
nightly to him to join it when we're
live? What do you want to say to
everyone? What you're doing makes a big
difference.
That's exactly what they needed to hear.
Thank you so much, Danielle. Have a good
night and maybe I'll see you around. Um,
okay. So, I told you first of all, give
your Tahillim a kiss. I like to give my
to him two kisses. Not for any
particular reason, just cuz I love it so
much. Like, you know, like if I was
giving a kiss to like a person that I
loved, I would kiss them on each cheek.
You know what I'm saying? So, I kiss my
on both sides. It's not like a halaka. I
just like I like to do it cuz it makes
me feel like connected to it
more. Anyways, um Okay. contest,
contest, contest, contest. So, we've
established that the website is
ikres.com. Um, but my challenge tonight
is that, and by the way, you can still
sign up for a team. All it means is that
you have a name and you can put a
picture on there and you can send a link
to people saying, you know, I'm raising
money for Incredible Kids. It means so
much to me. Um, I want to see more
things. I want to I want I want
Incredible Kids to grow. I want um and
it's changing my life in so many ways.
and blah blah blah like we always talk
about. Um, but tonight I have a special
contest to propose and that is
that anybody who sends a
video, the video needs to be one minute
or less, so not more than one minute.
Um, a video of that you can make. You
can either use your use your creativity.
I'm and the reason why I'm seeing this
contest specifically is because in the
last I don't know in the last almost two
years since I started to Helm army the
amount of kids who are so good at making
videos. So many of you have sent me
videos just either ones that you edited
or just like took cute videos, creative
videos of yourself. Maybe it was
imitating me or maybe it was um making
your own like interviewing your sister
on her bed about her life. like I get
the the most adorable and creative
videos from you guys. So, I want to see
your creativity go next level. So, any
team who um can send a video and you'll
send it to
um
[email protected] to that general
email address. Um, any kid who sends a
one minute video will be entered to win
a raffle. And the winner of that raffle
is going to get Incredible Kids
sweatshirts for everybody in their
family. Incredible kids sweatshirts for
everyone in your family. The winner of
that raffle. You guys in for all of the
incredible kids in your family.
So, one minute video, but you have to
make it convince. What's this video
about? The video
um is going to be a video that's going
to convince people. You're going to
convince people who are watching the
video why Incredible Kids is so special
and why they should donate to
ikra.com. So, you have to think of that
yourself and you have to think of your
own creativity.
And I'm not giving a lot of rules for it
because I I find that especially when I
was teaching in the classroom, if I gave
too many instructions, like if I said,
"Okay, everyone, we're doing a project
and you need to do it exactly like me.
You have to use a pink paper. You need
to cut it into the shape of a heart and
you need to use a stamp to do this and
this." I felt like it made people very
nervous and they were always like, "Is
it good? Is it good? Does it look like
is it supposed to be like this?" this
and I was like, it's supposed to be arts
and crafts, so you could do whatever you
want. And that's why I didn't really
give a lot of instructions. And I would
say, we're going to make cards today and
you could use any materials that you
want. And they knew, my students always
knew they could take whatever they want.
So for this, I'm doing the same type of
thing. So I want you guys to use your
imagination and creativity. If you have
to make a one minute video and you need
somebody to watch it and be convinced
why they should give a million dollars
to Incredible Kids, well, how good is
your video? You have to be making a very
convincing argument. Why? What's so
special about Incredible Kids? Why do
you Why do you want Why are you raising
money, right? Where's the money going to
go? And you have to show that in a
video. So, interview your bus driver. Do
whatever you have to do. Okay. Ask
Berlin and Brahabash. and Incredible
Goodmans. Are you ready for the raffle?
Are you ready for today's raffle? Okay,
so again, if you don't yet have a team
page, not too late to sign up. You just
go to join.ra.com or just ikra.com and
there's a button to join with a team
page. But so many of you have one
already, so it shouldn't be very hard.
Okay, here we go. I am going to share
the screen in a second. Let me just
update
the raffle wheel for
tonight's raffle.
Okay, we have a lot of entries, but why
are they not in the list over here? Ah,
here they are. Okay, let me try it one
more time because I think it linked to
the wrong list. One
second.
Um, not too late to join the raffle

heard about the contest. You know that
there is going to be one winner from
this video who's going to win
sweatshirts for their family of brand
new incredible kids sweatshirts that I
have never sold online before. So that's
really really exciting. Um the other
thing that I wanted to say is that you
guys heard last week when Arya Consler
was on that we announced that there is
an unmuted show that's happening on June
24th in the Ritz Theater in Elizabeth,
New Jersey, which is not too far from
New York and everything's far from
Baltimore. So I will be back on the
highway trying not to get a speeding
ticket.
um
and it's the kind of thing that people
are actually like coming in for
obviously if it works for their family.
Um people already told me that they're
planning to come in from different
places for it. So June 24th so far all I
said is that Arya Conser will be there
but I also released some more
information this week that we are going
to have the Meny Hersitz band which is
the best band ever plus plus you guys
remember Simha on wheels. Who remembers
Natan cats from Sima on wheels? Anyone
was back here on Hill Army when he was
on? He's so much fun and he was like
doing a dance party with us here on Tah
Hill Army. You guys remember? Yeah. So,
he's going to be at the show
doing the funnest things. I can't think
of a more mature word to say right now
than funnest. Doing the most fun things
throughout the event. Doing activities,
games, crazy challenges throughout the
show. So, there's going to be singing,
there's going to be fun, there's going
to be ruach, there's going to be a all
the fun things. And I can't wait to tell
you more information because there are
so many amazing singers joining. And I'm
going to let you guys know when you need
to know. So, so many surprises, so many
fun things, all for the incredible kids.
And I want to wish everybody the most
gorgeous, beautiful Shabas, remembering
that we are all soldiers in our duties.
And even though sometimes it is so hard
to remember to like say, you know, say a
little to Helim here and there for um
our brothers and sisters in our Israel
and just anybody who needs archos. You
guys inspire the adults. I say it all
the time and I've seen it many times.
It's actually the kids who are often the
ones remembering and it's really
special. Um sometimes I forget, you
know, so thank you guys for inspiring
me. I don't know if I would say as much
to Helen if I wasn't here to join you.
So, I feel it and it's very special. So,
thank you and everyone have a good night
and remember that no matter what's going
on in your lives, you guys are such
awesome, incredible kids and you should
never forget that. So, say it with me.
Remember, you are all incredible kids.
