[Music] hello and welcome to the rabbi Orlovsky show this is Yakko Yakko an auskey special USA edition of the Rebbe Aronofsky's show tour anytime or Apple podcast or iTunes or on the site rabbi Orlovsky calm thank you for being with us today the good thing about a show that only has a last name is that anyone that carries the last name could really carry the show so today I'm gonna be hosting the show today Yakko Yakko Alaska like I said and we're gonna have a special guest today now I just want to start by saying this is not a show this is in fact a sheer I don't know what was going on till now here but there's a new sheriff in town and we're gonna call this a sheer so take out your pens and papers because there's gonna be a lot of Magna Commons going on so just please be be prepared before we start with that I first wanna introduce my first and only guest today he's a world-renowned speaker a father husband grandfather it's my father rabbi thank you for joining our show today thank you I'm excited to total I was hoping to sew on this on this edition of the perm show yes a lot of people see you as rabbi Lasky how you are today funny of hours Oh funny [Laughter] what we don't speaker travel the world you had many jobs and people people think maybe you're just born into it but in fact that comes with a lot of hard work there's a lot of history from the beginning till now and let us see out the dish mine for sure God has really given me more than you know of the sake deserve to the untrained eye I definitely got more than I've been very very good to me but it did not come without hard work and a lot of self making from the beginning till today and I thought maybe in this show yes we could start by even though you spoke a lot about yeah so everyone who's been watching all the episodes knows you spoke about bits and pieces of well your family your upbringing throughout the history your career but I wanted to try to do a little bit like trying to put into proportion and try to see a whole picture okay of the whole thing so we'll start from the beginning 1959 you're born ten o'clock in the morning January January 12 12 to cold snowy day cold snowy day shortly before my father went bankrupt you're born to Martin and Stella Orlovsky in the fifth out of six boys amazing amazing that my father was determined to have he doing one of the dozen kids he wanted a large family to this day it's a mystery to me why is it always a lot of kids and we had six boys which back then was can bizarre you know there's so many children yeah I was number five number five you grew up in North Merrick Long Island but most people never heard of North America Merrick is wealthy and Jewish North America is poor and chemically and that's where I grew up so there were very few Jews around and it gave me a different perspective definitely on life now you grew up within a family who you would call religious non-religious traditional that is such a great question that's a great question um the easy answer is it was not reversed what it's not true you know I asked my father once what over with Orthodox the Conservatives won now we went to a concern of synagogue that's all there wasn't so he my Frye said we're conservative now my father works Saturday he grew up with no indication he dropped out of school a Jewish education he dropped out of school after eighth grade to help support his family during the Depression and he had a flower shop and the busiest day was Saturday so he felt he had to go for an awesome so I said someone said what I always say this is we're conservative so I said did you know that conservative also says you have to keep Shabbos he says okay we're reformed now this was very interesting because people used to give themselves labels not based on their philosophy but on their levels of observance so if you kept 30% your reforms 60% your conservative 90% you were Orthodox a hundred percent you a physician that's that work that's why you can have terms like conservatives 75% performative 43% you know and so depending on what you did that's where you went so the easy thing to say is well my father and King Shabbos II wasn't religious but we're talking about somebody who after you went bankrupt sent most of his kids to yeshiva you always gave minded stock up well that's our cue thank you for being here with us in this show the Bell you're the bells what's happening so but he so this is what's important is it every person has a disconnect between what they believe and what they do right there's always a disconnect there are people when I was mushiya and he is Shiva I used to say guys listen this is a serious issue but you don't want to get up in the morning and you don't want to learn it yeah at night this is right I said well why don't you go to yeshiva X he says that's for bums I said back that you were bum because you don't like it but I don't want to be any issue for buzz I said ah you want to be an issue with good guys and be above this is right because otherwise I'll be influenced by the other bums so there's always a disconnect between people between what they believe and what they actually do so if I was to look at my father hush goofily he was an Orthodox Jew he was a non-practicing mother nitrogen and when I say non-practicing I mean I was something is hidden keep Shabbos but he kept a kosher home and he gave a lot it's stuck going and he and he worked hard too I mean when I was a little kid I had no even would've met my father said to me Humera shakes up yeah the well I didn't know what his chicks it wasn't underwear will was I was like okay my father believed in these things these things were very important here but he didn't have an education and he felt they had no choice there was a generation that felt they had to work on Chavez so if you say was my it was my house my house was not shomer Shabbos but I think my parents were deeply religious well there are things you you think that when you grow up from a religious point of view that were very points of them that you could remember that there was the strong points by them my father would come home from work on a Friday night didn't matter what time it was and he made kiddush he would go in the kitchen of watch and I was washed but here why he'd come back he'd make a booty and we'd sit down and never shy Masuda yeah that was always something was very important if you walked around the house in your socks you got a smack what do you want me to die that my father was a sign of a Bayliss that was something you didn't don't you know and I said this to other people I've met other people who grew up the same way no shabbos yeah but it's not like the worst thing you could possibly do how would how our youngsters oh my gosh well virtually of kippur we we always want to show interesting enough he would he drove her Shoshana but we walked on Yom Kippur give me any would turn on lights or anything you know nothing on onion kid that was he he felt it very serious this was a walk it was a mile when when I became from a 12 so I was walking to the to the synagogue for my bar mitzvah and relatives kept pulling up offering me rights so I didn't take any thank you anyway but but they don't think twice about it you know everybody official that was so but on Rosh Hashanah we'd come home and and my father would Colin honey apple and honey and then it was a meal that was bizarre in the extreme I can't even put it into words yeah my mother would make it further but she spent an entire day making gefilte fish it was Federline enormous it was the most amazing thing ever yeah first you know this enormous piece of gefilte fish then she had stuff character that she made herself then she made without a big plate of chopped liver and my mother was very particular about this there had to be a lettuce leaf and then you put the chopped liver and then slices of cucumber slices of tomato and a ring of green pepper and a radish flower when we first got married you know I used to want to serve chopped liver and my you know my wife wasn't so happy about it because I was so involved and finally she said I don't want the chopped liver but my mother yeah up liver sometimes she'd have fricassee and then you can't the soup she made two types of sushi cabbage soup and she made chicken soup you took the chicken soup and then it came with either Alfred noodles or regular noodles there was kasha there was Chinese noodles soup the soup mandolin and by the time we reached the main course it was bizarre so he came to the main course and then she had an entire brisket an entire Turkey and it was sweet potatoes that went along with turkey and stuffing and with the brisket there was roast potatoes and they were stemis and dessert was about $300 worth of bakery cake I put a lot of emphasis on the is it just me or every time elapses get together somehow it becomes all about the food I'm just you know it was we didn't even get to eat like like crazy and like that and it was let's just say that they didn't look the way that I looked for most of my life from eating carrot sticks and the Seder you know that my father came home from work because it was like Easter time which was very busy in the flower business and he would come home he could go from Kadesh to the meal in 20 minutes boom and then the meal was the same kind of real there was two types of soup there was risky then turkey enough and there was you know and I took me longer because I was you know what and the courses would line up so yeah there was definitely nervous to some food to my house you would say they love the matzo brei I haven't given out a recipe in a while so for those of you Iike brough those of you don't eat your props just pretend this never happened but my mother would take two and a half Montes machine monsters and break them up and then put him in a strain and put hot water over them just so off them and drain it out and then she would put it into a mixing bowl with four eggs I think if I remember the proportions you have to play around a little bit and mix it up with a little salt and then bake it like a like a big pancake and you have to cover it on the top so that when it gets cooked enough you can flip it this was always the thing my father would do the matzo boy flip it over on the other side it comes out golden and delicious my mother's last Pesach we spent together and you know the whole family and everybody would go out and I would stay home with my mother make matzo brei I'd make an egg cream those you don't know what that is it's basically chocolate milk with seltzer but they have to make it right you know my mother had a matzo brei and sugar my favorite things there are two she just - she is my mother I think used to put you know sure some people food sort something with sugar something puts here I don't I don't want to be today they say miss Gunkel adores no stop putting cheese and sour here don't yet on my mother made it okay you want to come an eye on with these newfangled things you know that was a matzah fight you know and I'm staying with my sister-in-law Shelly she told me that they went once to Florida and she went to the guy who was sitting there making the eggs in the hotel inton you're gonna make me a matzo brei I know they don't make it the guy made it and then everyone Minds it but that's that's how you make about to my real mother my mother-in-law and I'm not judging here but she makes it scrambled like scrambled eggs and matzah my mother-in-law they don't broke so matzah in one room the mix shut up all right so we're gonna move on a little bit I see I'm not gonna be able to go through everything but let's try to get some key key times you went to school in Hebrew can be a hassle panting yeah started in first grade at five f-fine I was five years old it's my birthday is in January but I was too smart to go to kindergarten so your skin.i skip kidding I really feel to this day with those pieces of paper with like chunks of wood still in it you know yeah I didn't do I want to sort of read about how how come you guys that Center yeshiva day school but I want to jump all the way to the end all right so eighth grade don't jump to the end yet yeah I just turned 16 you're giving away the whole thing to the end I don't know goodbye I realize now this is my let's just say he's never coming on a show alright so a trade yeah 12 years old oh my god and you have a Rebbe Rabbi we'll never Yaakov will that's right talk to me a little bit about how how he influenced oh boy now yeah I've never Stannis in seventh grade I was I was you know troublemaking so don't make I thought I finally started to get some social recognition you know I got thrown out once cuz I wouldn't get a haircut you know my hair was too long and seventh grade and I started right because I was friends with this other kid Chemical I don't know whatever happened to him but we were friends for a while and they hang out this thing called Razzles no reservoir they're a candy but when you chew him up they tend to go alright so they had this extremely annoying commercial Razzles of gum no rasuls of candy yes anyway so I so KOCO had some Razzles chewing them up now this rabbi couldn't stand it if you chew gum incisors you cannot chew gum in my class I said that's what's not a government you can't be technical no it's a gum no it's a candy no it's a guy we got the whole class going you got so exciting work that so there's an Olaf ski who misbehaved in school anyway so that was more or less why was it so good now during the minion me and my other Ellen Harris we had a tour kissing contest to see as they bring guitar back okay kissing and there was a revenue in the school ribbon will he was very heavy he was bald and he had this high-pitched voice anything another down and he was loaded the fanatic in the school I think we were kissing this to her and suddenly this hand grabs me and drags me out and destroys my said I think the down banjaara and I was absolutely terrified well I come in eighth grade chemical was going I come to eighth grade and my revenues are the will and we sit down now you have to understand until then all the classes were a brick bit of rate the idea being that not only would you learn punished and Navi and halakhah and historia everything else you'd also learned if read but if you didn't pick up the imprint you would learn nothing and that was the track that I was on complex a nothing for all those years because I just didn't know what was going on I just thought so I said that in everything wells class I'm like oh my gosh no I have a fanatic of the school the shul and he says ok boys you all know me he says I haven't lost any weight from last year I haven't grown any hair from last year and my views on life haven't changed either and I thought oh my goodness this is a real human being this person is willing to poke fun and himself he's willing to talk about life I was astounded and then some kid reasoning because hey kid you speak English right in America I tell you I was ready to applaud I couldn't believe it because everybody know to play the game and even choose to play the game and he told me yours ladies is what am I going to sit down talking to rich fool and I know none of the kids understand what I'm saying it's more important to me now it was this trick with Reverend whale that everyone knew that if you didn't feel like learning you just say I told you anyway and he'd go on his read for 20 minutes about teresina and as the years went by I realized he was waiting for this because this wasn't part of the curriculum he was supposed to cover this amount the businessman there's none of that but he pretended to be shocked by the questions but he did it in order to be able to get us to hear the true - that's what his whole goal was now he made himself as a fanatic what was fascinating I didn't find this out until I graduated years later he had actually gone to NYU Law School and his first job as a lawyer he was he was starting out and his boss who was Jewish talk to you know go to the restaurant you know Dinah and pick him up a cheeseburger he says I can't system well you don't get me my lunch you're fired it says can't know what fighter so he said no he just he's graduating law school he says so what am I gonna do I just got another job don't happen again he went to liquid whereof Aaron was and he said pennilyn Wow and and he came in his wife had a master's in English literature he was his mother was the famous mrs. whale dr. whale in Borough Park who was this woman pediatrician they were very educated they were very with it but he came in and he knew that he had to become sort of a caricature to shake people up and he would always say this Longo's you you can love me or hate me but you'll never forget me because I'm not gonna let you just sit there I'm gonna shake you up and that was his goal he had a bunch of these apathetic Long Island kids in the 70s who didn't care about anything and everybody was apologetic and I read this and he says this is what the Torah says if you don't like it tough well I saw this is a personal challenge because I forget so myself is something an intellectual and I could argue very well but I was very well-read and acquainted and I would raise different points and stuff and he would just cut me to pieces and I was unaccustomed to this so I would go and I would speak to concern rabbis and to the other people know their questions and stuff and I'd come back in and he just cut me up the pieces and I realized at some point oh my gosh this is true and I remember I said to my friends I said let's fight with this guy he's and they said just ignore him he's a fanatic I said but what if he's right they said ignore him anyway I couldn't do that cuz if it's true it's true let me let me just say say about them because they're being sincere being what we call it by Seamus this is something that you also raised us to me even though I got in trouble in school questions with teachers and stuff and this is something that where did this come from that it was always stronger than if it's true you're gonna do what's true and you're gonna do what's right because it's right and you don't care about what people think you don't care about what people do we have to just be sincere and do it because it's the right thing I definitely got it from my father my father was you know he was on a tour and Scandinavia my father's story is our third Scandinavia and they're sitting at this table but they were sitting yet and my mother had left her sweater on the table and this waiter evidently threw it on the floor so he was this large Aryan looking fellow and gigantic like Schwarzenegger yeah my father was a short scrappy guy but you know a system would you do this table is not for the Jews it's for the Germans this is ya step outside my mom's like body condemn it this guy would have killed him didn't make a difference my father would do it with it when the councillor you shall I used to be in Arab Jerusalem it was during the Intifada and one of my kids was born and we had them go get a birth certificate and I said dad listen you know I think we should take a cab you know that's all right let's go park there so I'm driving around there's no parking space right over there there are these 20 Arabs just like hanging around in the mob that's okay let them say some this is come on mother oh my god it would have died if I didn't care my father came things were the first time in 1960 and a half a year after the six-day war and they would drive me to the Gaza Strip and everybody's staring at them this looks of hatred and my father says stop the bus he says I'm gonna buy some nuts want to do the sugar nobody arms a little bitter because I actually think they get back on the bus that was my dad my my dad was fearless yeah that's right it's wrong and that's why you know I say the difference between his philosophy what he did I was there I remember was wouldn't you Kippur and he says to the rabbi him to consider synagogue because I really should come on Shabbos I really should do more you know and he says to look money in a big family you give a lot of charity you working to support your families that's a bit my father started yelling at him he says you're the rabbi you were supposed to tell me I'm doing the wrong thing I know I'm doing the wrong thing don't try to tell me I'm doing the right thing so I definitely grew up with a sense of this right in visual yeah and if we got this in a consequence if we jump to there than his life he really ended up moving right by a show right now his kids he became shomer Shabbos and after this heart attack and he was supposed to die you know doctor said no and he says it will actually have a sign some shoppers and then there was a snowstorm he couldn't walk to shore and he said to my mother that's it we're moving no three of my brothers were living in West Hempstead so he says to the agent I want a house this is what what are you looking for it's got it I gotta be able to walk to show on the snowstorm that was it it was his only requirement he finds his house and he I remember when he first bought it you know and they bring me down to see it I said I say I say this is a piece of garbage that's how he was he was definitely Thomas you know I mean not that he was always consistent I never always consistent I always know what's right that doesn't always do what's right but at least I'm back you know people say how can you know that what you're doing is rubbish you have to justify it to yourself otherwise have you live with yourself I said I'd rather know what the MS is and say I'm not doing it then pretend to you know justify what I'm doing by making up a false philosophy which is what some of course so when when do you become from that yeah it was probably around November my bar mitzvah was in January was part of November then I started for me the hardest thing to give up was TV so when I first started out I used to put the and the best shows came on Friday night back then so I used to put the TV on the shot clock that was that it was my mercy 1972 this was 1972 and and by the time I get my mitts I gave that up it was a few months you know and I started working we have many many foreign editions with many that's the Mickey Mouse clock I'm at the usual regular ski studio quality control but anyway so I started walking there the conservative synagogue had an orthodox menu downstairs Friday night I used to walk there and I would come back you know and I started taking on things for myself to you know give it all there so but timing each other Mitzvah I was shot you already show Michelle and your Mitzvah was harshest boa for those who missed that episode but yo gosh a mimosa beau el faro l.e.d.s libo it's not worth the Rose you have a piece of sponge cake isn't Manischewitz why anything are you ready yeah so you spoke you spoke about that already yeah and now you're graduating eighth grade thank you yeah if the timer was 19 Hank went up to the ninth grade and then it ended the high school starting with tempera so remember where was your ribbon 9th grade she was my remember you eighth grade he was my memory 9th grade and it was my reverie in 10th grade oh I kept myself back they wanted to move me up and I wanted to stay with Mary well I stay with him for three years 11th grade they made me move up but I just I have to tell you that so many of the things that I sing and do are REME well isms but I've given it my own spin so they don't come across but you know I he would speak so straight and so common sense and so logical that it was just it's just such a breath of fresh air so on target and he was also very provocative mm-hmm I've been accused of that myself no simply for the shock now now if you remember we had a bunch of Concerned kids in there in our school Salomon chef that closed down my class had a lot of conservative kids kids kids whose parents we could serve rabbis of Kansas and somebody left a Silverman Center on his desk he looks he goes ah boys what is this now those of us who are Willis we do already something's happening you can see it coming like before because it must have been instead of massive an actor they took it to us with me he provoked us right and then Elizabeth she has amazing you know so they took boys they don't believe in Kerberos him boom on the floor me at this point I was wearing a little button that he gave me gonna say I am Abed [Laughter] what are you doing it hits god's name in it he says listen closely it says that if I going right to save it or you bury it but if it not because right did you burn it you burn it put your screw in the foot sconce eminent looks again a safe return of God's name in it if it's rich better because you burn it until everyone just gave up and he went on teaching with now I had the day even I was was like wow that's that's a bit much cheaper for me and then years later I came across a Gomorrah that says why was the motion of a new punished for breaking the law because he was doing it to teach place and so he obviously meant attachment he knew what was gonna be been fighting in the past you know was one time he's sitting there suddenly he says it's a conservative synagogue where is it a synagogue came out because they have a safe guitar if you take a safe and turn into a bathroom oh my god anyway it was a delegation of concern members and they call a minute I didn't say to me at home I said if you put a single right here we all agree to write down who was he's the prince and he was the principal of the county once in a generation he could put together a staff with revery well with people from why you wish listen from Eric's trail with lavaca you know and [Music] welcome to BBC you're listening to Big Bang luckily we have a special American producer who's my Israeli producer we just like take everything out we'll see what he leaves in the end but anyway but he was could take together this this entire disparate staff and make it all into you type into something special but he certainly once he says do you know how hard it was for me to keep every well that it was so much pressure from your fire and I meet people to this day who would they say well they start foaming at the mouth to here I meet people today who affirm you tonight because a very well and so that was his approach his approach was I'm gonna shake you up I'll shake you if I'm gonna get you I'll get you if I don't get I don't get you but you're not going to sit passively in my class and ignore me and I decided that up to you know I I don't like to go in and give a nice comfortable shooter where everybody comes over afterwards and says thank you very much if I haven't done something to touch people's lives that to me is I haven't worked hard enough I worked hard enough there was a share of oldest singles the ones who would tell me their ages and they asked me to give a for critics I get one cheer on your second cheer and at the end there was it thank you very much so I'm not doing it so I come to the third cheer I started to go you know what what's wrong with you girls how come you're not married well they just explode they give me that and I just kept pushing it one may be too picky maybe you're this villian and whatever I could do and because I wanted the catharsis I wanted I wanted people that took right though I'm not here to make you feel learn at the antenna you know if there's something father you say it out can't get it out express it you know don't you know don't ignore him don't ignore me or the issue let's address it whatever might be one set all right well you continue through a school not nothing major details we have right now unless you want to share okay biology I was going in to the Regents with about a twenty three average now head of a hundred all right not because I was stupid but because I just you know didn't do my homework is that if you know something now but when we studied nutrition I did the cooking in the house because my parents both worked in the cooking so my biology teacher was so impressed by this that she she had a warm spot my mom she was very tough and I remember she would when she if she throw you out you know that was that you went out for certainly for the day and you couldn't make any comments I used to get away maybe some comments anyway once I might I went across the lectures mr. Lasky leave the room said what mr.
