Danny Dangor

what God doesn't speak that person he just it just created its God he's infinite he's spiritual if I don't marry if I yo mare viola a viola everybody on what Pope we have a world how's it what why would they use that word why are the Torah use the word amar when it really should have used a different verb and the answer is that maybe curtis probe was trying to teach us something that the power of creation comes not when we do something that according to the official high him is the power of execution there's a step before that and the step that we miss and that's a step of speech I want tell you guys a great story we went to California with these two amazing guys one guy's name is Danny the anger and he has a great story how he decided to become more connected to Judaism more religious and we sat with him and he has an amazing tale basically he was invited on a television station to be one of the hosts and he had already gone and started to get connected to Judaism a little bit he was on his journey a little bit but not connected and on his journey he decided that he was going to try to keep Shabbos and he made a commitment that he was gonna keep Shabbos he wasn't really learning picky he had gone to Israel but he was sort of wavering I get a phone call and it's this woman she's like hi Danny my name is Molly from next great Baker it was a TV show we wanted to put you on the show I said yeah sure she's look good because I've been trying to get a hold of you for a couple weeks now this was actually my last phone call because I couldn't get a hold of you I was in Israel my phone was off she's all like great we want you coming out to Jersey you're on the show oh my god this is amazing they're interviewing me we're having a great time or laughing and they're like so Danny you said you were a kosher chef right tell us a little bit about that they started asking me a little bit more about I said yeah we don't work on Friday and Saturday so I see them looking at each other like after I say this turn off the camera the way Danny that was great interview thank you very much but that was a those all for the camera right the friday/saturday you're just saying that no that's that's really what I've been doing for the past two years so they walk into the back room they come out ten minutes later thank you very much but pretty much get out of here we don't want you anymore I'm feeling all down I'm down but also like energized you know like you don't want me fine you know I'm Danny Dan gore I am Who I am you know this is who I am if you don't want me that's fine he just given up the job of his life because he believed in something you'd think that you'd give to Hamish I'm gonna get back to you no and here he is thrown out on the street standing in all New Jersey doesn't know where he's going doesn't how he's gonna get anywhere and it starts to rain and he remembered something that someone told him years ago I remember something that my cousin said to me he's like we were walking one time I was very upset about something he's like you know how chums got your back right he's like Sean's got your back and then as soon as like I realized wow Hashem wanted me here that that phrase came into my head chums got your back and so every challenge after that I just like something bad happen Shems got my back Sam's got my back actually to this day he doesn't even know that I still remember that but I actually like every time something bad happens I say that here's Danny one of those trying moment that he's had in his life to the point really this is his chance and he lost it and he's feeling distance from Hashem but he holds on to a statement in times that are tough Hashem has your back he composes himself and he steps out and it hits him so now you're in your new jersey and lo and behold we are completing the entire Talmud together in a football stadium in New Jersey how do you find out about it I knew this team of shots was around that time I just went on my phone I'm like how funny would it be if it was today I knew that they were doing one in LA they were doing one and like New York so I'm like well I'm in Jersey I'm not far from New York I'm actually on the border I said let me you know so I'm on my phone and I'm figuring out I'm like oh it's actually in Jersey I'm like it's a MetLife Stadium I'm like I wonder how much a cab would be do I get there I'm like a wonderful journey is huge so I find out it's a train ride away so now I get to MetLife Stadium and then I mean it was the funniest thing I mean like maybe like 12 cops came and swarmed like around me like what are you doing here I have my long here at this time you know I have like a black t-shirt on my backpack hey what are you doing here they grabbed my backpack immediately though hey let me see some ID to take my ID they're doing background check on me though I quit we'll be doing here I'm like I'm here for the same like where's your ticket like I don't have one though I will leave that they're sold out you're not gonna find a ticket and now it's starting to sinking because I'm on a high I'm like yeah like do all of this maybe this was the reason I was supposed to come out to New York you know and they keep on saying it they finally finished the background check they're like oh you're not gonna find a ticket we don't want you waitering around here you know Middle Eastern looking guy a bunch of religious people around them literally about it I quit and two religious people are like we have an extra ticket I don't want a free extra ticket how am I looking at the guy and I'm like going in so I get the ticket not only do I get the ticket it's like third row back so I'm like we're like you know from the from the center of where they're doing the sandwich sauce oh my I can't believe I'm here and I just sat down and you know it was like a couple of it was like about an hour before everyone started getting there and I was there what's going on in your mind as you're sitting there going I just went from television secular career success to Tom Wood with more black-and-white than I can ever see in my life and me sitting there I thought Hashem wanted me here I was meant to be on this TV show I don't get it like every single step of the way his shuns hand was saying you're gonna be on this TV show and I'm like how is how is this wrong and then I I'm sitting at the CMAs shots now this is a question that you asked what's going on my mind and I'm sitting there and I played back the last two hours I said this really is where I'm supposed to be right now he was so inspired that he flew back to LA and he said next I wish I can start the cycle with everybody else as he says this an email pops up one of the guys in our community is like we're gonna be doing docume and I'm like great this guy aspire to wants to be part of the group so he's doing a doctor he's like gay here's 6:30 in the morning and as he goes to the class a man is walking out a man named near Jacobi here's a story into himself what was your connection to Judaism as you grew up nothing I was I mean I went to public high school here in Los Angeles I went to Taft High School I went to college I went to work then I was all over the world trying to find what his life about and I went to Morocco I went to France someone to spare I was I I've done it all and I'm 28 years old now and I have no idea what you're dating about I owe it to myself to go and find out so I went for two weeks reason what's amazing about his life story is that along the way he kept on not being able to take like this step and then he some returned him at one point and says there's a class why don't you come to a class learning tomorrow I show up at 6:30 nobody is there oh yeah it's a sign from God God does not want me in the class clearly right I came I did my in my effort God want me to do the effort I leave my effort he's not there it's not happening yeah I'm about to walk into the building and this guy is like it's like hey uh can I help you with something I'm like yeah I'm going to this class right now is he's like it's a document class unbelievable he's showing up for a class of shots these guys this guy could use a class you know first on many other things cause I'm here for the Deaf you mean I'm like oh yeah it was cancelled you know game over and I'm like oh man like starting today I like that was my plan my plan was to do that like now I don't have a plan anymore something I say they got like mmm do you want to study first of all I thought to myself this is insane you know I I'm not a teacher I'm not a rabbi clearly no one person maybe I should find him a different place to go study and also it's totally the only material for this dude I mean he's just starting out with this stuff you owe me started it's totally it's the wrong time it's non-person its own place everything is wrong but I said yes subject King Solomon King Debbie died your brother member King Debbie died and then his son Solomon said that give us a little more about your relationship within the year where does it go beyond just Tomlin so that I remember the first time that our relationship went from my teacher like student was he's like come over for Shabbat I saw like this guy has like an ideal family for me I want to have like a bunch of little kids and you know and so I started hanging around his family a lot more yeah so what is it about him that inspires you he is he's got a family he's everything that like I hope to get one day the two of them had been learning ever since he's gone to his house for Shabbos his multiple times he knows his kids and his connection to you - right now we are nine months later and you've already finished to track dates how does that feel to you yeah after the first one I'm like I can't believe it I felt so accomplished like you know I'm like I I did it you started your journey searching for truth what has Danny given you on your journey to get closer to God Danny doesn't give up it it doesn't let up if he doesn't understand something it doesn't matter how many times we can read it we don't move forward unless we really understand it and we have done brockless we've done Shabbos we're almost done with the Reuben and every time it got a little bit more difficult but every time I said God we can figure it out make it happen and it's making it happen what is it that excites you to share with somebody else there are so many lost souls out there that I can reach out to and then really help out if God can heal my help and if you peel back these stories there's a lot of action I'm not minimizing the effort I'm not minimizing the time I'm not minimizing the execution of our creations but what's amazing about these stories is that they're so simple we think like to make a difference in someone's life you have to be like so articulate or so ingenious you have to say like the line it's gonna blow people away I would totally do it but like I'm not that person I'm a regular person I'm not like gonna come up with something that's gonna talk to someone to be like oh you changed my life we think there's so much drama involved in changing someone's life it's completely untrue in fact most of the time people that whose lives are changed by
