Pesach: Returning to Life (Ep. 168)

hi this is debbie dolonowski and welcome to the round of allow ski show [Music] and whether you're watching with our friends over attorney time whoever you watch or listen to your podcast as always thank you for taking our time from your day to spend some of it with me so i'm going to do something a little out of order because i usually do all my questions and answers in the question and answer segment at the end of the show but the first question that i happen to notice today is really something i want to start the podcast with anonymous asks when the ref was reminiscing about his trip to america you spoke how you're telling us all of this because you miss us and you want to connect however the rev is talking to a camera how can you feel such a connection to something that you don't actually see and the people that you don't actually know so this is such a good question and and i have to give it a little bit of a hesbur and that's why i'm saying this at the beginning when i say thank you for taking out time and watching this podcast um there's an art form to talking when you don't see anybody right um i've told this story in the past yeah i have a problem because there are certain people who listen to everything that i say they're clearly not my children and so uh you know they remember everything i ever said i'm sure i told this story but when i was in that shell so uh uh if you had a really good friend you'd make them a tape and it's very hard because you're saying they're talking to somebody and you don't see them you just have to try to keep up a monologue it's not really a dialogue it's a monologue now sometimes you do this to somebody who you're with that's a dialogue but it's really a monologue because you're the only one talking i think i mentioned this that i'm by nature a shy person um i was once painfully shy when i first got my uh the job of being an ncsy director in los angeles i actually stood on the corner of fairfax and beverly boulevard and practiced saying hello to people because it was so hard for me to talk to anybody and uh you know okay we uh we managed so i would talk to the kids at every meeting this one girl just would look at me not say a word so uh i kept up this monologue which of course is a dialogue because there's somebody else there and it was very painful it was painful every week after a few months she came over and just started talking to me and i was like what happened because it takes me a long time to warm up so uh so i so i understand that um i don't know if you've noticed this not always but sometimes when people come onto the program it's hard for them to talk i i've heard this from a lot of guests that i've had on the show where they said i want to do it again because i i didn't realize when i was doing it it's it's hard to just talk to a camera and it is it is now for me it's a lot easier i have years of experience of talking to people who don't listen to me so it's not so hard but you know it is definitely difficult it's a challenge when i speak in an audience i feel like i'm speaking to each person individually that's the way i try to do it now if i never left my little room and i only had a little camera that i was talking to it probably would be more difficult but i'm constantly getting emails and phone calls and meeting people who say to me i watch the show i listen to the show i really get a tremendous amount of physic and that means a lot to me it really does so when i'm speaking to the camera i'm not speaking to a camera i'm speaking to everybody that i've met and through the kawakadimian with the imagination which occurred gives us i imagine all the other people who are listening and i every now and then i'll get a picture you know of somebody who's little kid is sitting there eating his cereal and watching the podcast you know or they say you know as we clean up after shabbos we're watching the podcast or things like this i've seen a lot of the people and i have enough imagination to imagine everybody else and i said this at the beginning thank you for taking out time because there is so many things that you can watch that you can listen to that you can do with your time and that people take out time thousands and thousands of people take out time to listen to what i have to say yeah i i feel a tremendous jacquaris atov and connection and obligation to those people i know uh it seems like it's pretty easy it's not always easy to do this well i i also have things that i have to do you know all the people who sent me emails that i've never answered can testify that i've got things that i have to do i've got a lot of projects that i'm working on at least in theory most of the time i sit and worry about the fact that i'm not doing any of the stuff i'm supposed to be doing but you know but i do it because i feel an obligation and it always happens basically back during corona time when i'd miss an episode and i and i get emails are you okay are you still alive we missed the podcast so yeah i'm talking to all the people i've seen and all of the people that i imagine are sitting and listening to this podcast that's how i make that connection so okay so that was the first of the questions we'll come back to the rest of them later but i just wanted to answer that one as i say again thank you for taking out time and this episode is sponsored anonymously today's learning be a broker for a smooth and complete reforeshima for miriam khaya and as i say that since i've already mentioned that i feel that you know everybody who listens to this podcast is something that connects us if you listen to me and like i say a lot of people listen to to all of these podcasts and all my sharing there's something seriously wrong with you so that links us together through whatever this mental illness is that makes somebody a robbery olafski show crazy of which i'm only one i am one among many so i'm going to ask everyone if i can be so bold just to take uh a minute and say a capital to hillary and uh you could put this on pause and uh again the name is miriam with love from ema and aunt bayla do not underestimate the power of us to be able to do great things there's no reason that she shouldn't have refused lemma in this course of your listening today and amir hashem that little feeler that you'll say that power with love from ema and aunt bayla thank you robert alaski for enriching our lives each and every week and again thank you for the opportunity okay that's our introduction or as we say in hebrew introductia yeah if you don't know a hebrew word just sticking itsy at the end you're probably right i've tried this i can't think of the hebrew word i just say the english word you know motavazia yeah yeah that's a word [Laughter] yeah what's the point uh yeah point that's right [Laughter] i i don't know it's a it's a it's a great language anyway so um um so i wanted to talk about a pace up theme and as i often do when i'm getting ready to film i say to my wife what should i talk about [Laughter] more often than not she gives me a very good idea and she gave me an idea today that i would like to expand upon we spend a lot of time talking about the seder and that's what you notice throughout all of pesach people are either saying leftover vodlakh from the pesach seder or of omran that that's just how it goes so why don't you talk about some of the other aspects of pesach there must be some of the felis that deserve a little bit more attention i said great so immediately i knew what i wanted to talk about um i don't know what's going on wherever you're watching yeah around the world uh those who watch in australia and south africa um and in south america you may not appreciate this since the world is upside down and you're probably just hanging from your legs because that's the way the world works the people in the bottom are just hanging upside down i've seen pictures anyway so um uh but if you're in the northern hemisphere uh it's starting to become springtime i mentioned this knowing there were certain places in america that i think a week ago had a snowstorm so okay we i remember i was in uh new york on pesach there was a freak snow storm on pesach uh so uh okay but here in eritsville which is the way the torah is meant to be lived yeah the erzerel is the expression of everything that's in the torah there's a a whole halachic issue of what do you do when you say uh krishma and samantha and these things if you're in one of those places where it's always day where it's always night uh this was an issue in europe for the whaling boats that were near the arctic ocean they had only like uh a minute was uh that was it you had one minute because the whole day was so compressed um my brother-in-law when he was rough in calgary david lichman he had to do a bris somewhere all the way up north in the northwest territory and it was in the summertime and there was no night the sun didn't set so uh he was there for shabbos it was either shabbos burst or a friday bruce so what do you do is you go all the way down to the first jewish community and you start shopping and finish shabbos when they do that's uh an amazing thing yeah uh i don't wanna mention his name anymore but there was a music star in the secular world that for a while was orthodox [Laughter] and he never did shows on friday night except he did a show in alaska in the summertime [Laughter] he was able to do it it wasn't a problem but uh but be that as it may yeah the um uh the eritsrell experience is something so special it's springtime i say springtime it's sort of like uh we went from winter to summer with like about an hour in between that was spring but but what's shot spring yeah do you ever hear uh the autumn of my year or the winter of our discontent the year is a muscle for a person's life springtime is birth summer you reach your fruition that's when everything is full autumn things start to die when you see the leaves changing colors it's just because the chlorophyll isn't filling them anymore they're dying so they don't look green they're not really changing colors that's their real colors and by winter everything looks dead the world looks dead the trees are bare the ground is cold and frozen there's nothing there and then comes the springtime and everything comes back to life that tree that looked like it was dead begins to grow leaves grow fruit begins to get larger flowers start to grow everything seems to come back it's like the world is coming back to life this is not by chance we've mentioned the secret in the past when it says circus is called the time of gathering in all of the produce right the weed is all put out into the fields in the summertime to dry out and before the rainy season you bring it in all of the uh figs are slit so that they dry up and now they're all poured inside barrels of wine barrels of oil everything you know comes in now a person takes a look and he sees all of the bounty that he has and uh he says wow this is great a person is happy when he sees all of his bounty because it's the quicker picker-upper sorry about that anyway but he's seeing everything that's coming uh together you show a hakura's her toes to a kurdish borough when you look at all of the bounty that he's given you would never rebel that would be mutiny on the bounty but anyway yeah cultural references anyway so when you um you put everything in so a person's happy so pashless circus is saying we're very happy why because we look at our bounty we look at all the things that we have that makes us happy a full larder storehouses makes everybody happy he says they say for a finic no it's because sukis is monsem set up the world that the time of bringing everything in would be sukis to help you be happy it's not that we're happy because we brought everything in hashem set up the world that we should bring it in then so the fact that pesach is it's not just that we went out in the springtime and it's not only like they said it's a good time to come because the uh you know it's not too hot and it's not too cold and the you know the rain has stopped so it's not going to be muddy that's not the main point the main point is that springtime is creation and that's what happens springtime represents birth summer represents your fulfillment you know your strength uh the autumn is uh where everything starts to close down that's where i am and then the winter is when you're uh old and dying when life is ending and just like the snow covers the earth the white hair covers you and uh you're cold and you're old what happens when i'm a seventy must come a time of seventy when you're old and it's cold and who cares if you live or you die i played fagan in the camp production of oliver thank you very much anyway um he was a uh a head of a gang of pickpockets he would bring in all these little children and befriend them and send them out to do crime so you understand why i was cast in this role typecasting if you will anyway so um uh and he's a jewish character in in uh charles dickens because he was an anti-semite and uh and that's why when menachem began was elected prime minister so time magazine said menachem began and wrote his name rhymes with fagin [Laughter] you know there are other words that rhyme with bacon but uh you know it was an obvious anti-semitic swipe but anyhow um i remember dry bones used to be a cartoon as we're called dry bones and he says oh did you see what time magazine road time which rhymes with crime and slime [Laughter] anyway but uh so the winter is when everything starts to close down it's the end of your life and that's how we see your life your life is in the context of a year so when spring comes after the death and destruction of the winter it's not just birth it's rebirth it's what we call triassim and in fact yetis misraym was a resurrection it was amazing we were dead in egypt and we had to come back to life says in the sieve the semanim the osos that hashem gave moshe to show the jewish people his hand was sarah saras is like death it says a masara is someone who's dead he put his hand in and came out and it came back to life he took a dead piece of wood threw it down and turned into a snake something alive so the idea was that clyusville has to come back to life that's amazing are the same idea um yeshua comes it's a it's going to be a a resurrection and therefore in philos geshen which we say on circus when we're praying for rain so we say i mean yeah we say the same thing in phyllis tal that we say an pesach envelopes but if you look at the um i think it's the mata frame parish on the on the maxo by sukis it says the kind veloli mobus exactly what it means without water we will die and we don't we don't appreciate what that means in most places because we always have access to water and eric's well you know if it didn't rain you were finished every house had a cistern during the rainy season it filled up and you would use that water through the summer and if it didn't rain come the rainy season you were out of water that's it to to a you shall need to waste water is still one of the most terrible things uh david brisker his uh he's take a bath here of shabbos and then his wife would use the water to to do sponge water was something that was you know such a it was a dip between life and death i uh i saw a guy in show he had some kind of stain on his jacket and he turns on the faucet by the washing sink the water's gushing out and he take a few drops like this there's an old man there i thought he was going to burst into tears because he grew up knowing that what is the difference between life and death if it ran out you were done i mean the the fact that that today we could turn on a faucet and we have water what a miracle and we had a particularly rainy uh year this year by hashem another year in a row and some people check the kineret some people check the meteorological uh charts i just checked my bedroom because you know i set up the buckets and as it comes pouring down i can measure the rainfall and we had a very rainy year i only had to replace a keyboard this time sometimes i have all appliances that go out but uh yeah yeah it's a little difficult when they told me that the apartment came with running water i didn't realize it was from the ceiling but anyway but uh you know we had a lot of rain hashem so uh in fact in erzell about everywhere but this was the coldest march on record because of global warming anyway so uh it'll be that as it may the springtime comes and everything comes back to life because that's what the yeshua is and when the comes it's going to be trees amazing i've mentioned this in the past the village who says that when titus stuck the sword into the paroches and the blood came out this russia wasn't zoyka to such an ace it was a message for us that taka at the khurban basan mikdash we died and says the guru and the bones have just been rotting and drying until there's nothing left but dry bones and when mashiach comes it's atria mason we're going to have to come back to life and pesach which is the goola comes out in the springtime and so when we say in below it says that is the kayak this pesach not just of gaula not that i'm minimizing that marijuana's amazing the world is crazy there's crazy stuff going on where some of my tommy dote from uh brooklyn used to say it's crazy it's crazy what's going on i don't know what's going on it's crazy yes it's crazy the ukraine is fighting against russia and russia's backing up i mean what is this how much sense does this make yeah um the the the this government formed even the majority of the government were right-wing parties and they just got together because they hated netanyahu and they passed all these anti-religious laws it's the only thing they could agree on the only thing that brings this these people together was to destroy religion in in israel and do things that will hurt the reading this makes any sense what's going on in america and the government and the things that are happening i was in america and uh i did a shopping in stop a shop just a small shopping which would have cost me probably thirty dollars it was over a hundred dollars it's crazy things are bad but if history has taught us one thing it's going to get worse [Laughter] cheer up because things could get worse i cheered up and sure enough things got worse yeah so uh okay so we don't just need a google or we need a atria we have to we have to bring ourselves back to life and that is the challenge that we have to go through now this pesach it's not enough just to become uh free we have to wake ourselves up as we said in the haftarah of parshas para remove our heart of stone and give us a lavasa a heart of flesh so that we can we can feel we can feel using vasaman said we would never have made it through this long gullis with a with a heart of flesh it would have cracked so many times i said the story bowman uh once because he had a lot of heart issues and i said that's because you take everything in your heart i remember i once told him something some some bad news and the next day i heard he was in the hospital and i said oh no it's me you know so when he came out i said i when you asked me because don't worry david i don't pay that much attention to you i feel better but uh you know so you need a heart of stone just to get through but to bring the gaula we have to change that and that's why uh destler says that it says mashiach and yosef will come before mushrik and david because yosef represents the heart and yehuda represents the mind and the goola is gonna come with the heart we have to come back to life we have to care and it's so hard today we've been dead for so long we have to wake ourselves up fearless tal right because i'll say when everyone died at matantara hashem brought the tower of tris amazing and brought them back to life that's uh that's the power and so uh this will be not just a gula but a tree mason for us and for glacier okay now we come to the question and answer portion of our program and by the way for those of you um who i haven't gotten to all the questions we're actually reaching the bottom of the list so if you still want to submit questions you have that opportunity so uh i'm gonna i'm gonna run out of all these questions and i'll i'll have to ask you questions so uh first there's uh the shabbos uh after lag by omer which i believe is may 20th and 21st i'm going to be in saint louis missouri st louis say louis whichever way you like to say it yeah uh the first time i was in st louis was 1968 my family went cross-country and we went to see the giant arch and uh it was very exciting mississippi river first time i was ever in st louis so i'm going to be there for shabbos so if anyone wants to try to put together uh an event we will emits hashem be doing another raviolsky show live and i will give the details believe that during the next uh next episode so uh please you know keep watching and uh if you can come and participate you can ask everyone who is there at the last one it's a lot of fun okay so uh this is a timely question is there a connection between anya and khadgadya since they are the only things in the haggadah that are in aramaic you know every now and then i feel like i'm planting questions in the audience so uh i heard this story many years ago that russia yeshiva used to come and give a shirt in gateshead and there was one big time of khakim who whatever the person was saying he would ask a bomb kasha and slug him up and the person would always be like well i don't know i have to go see that uh texas and i remember it and i was like you know anyway this russian shiva was uh coming to give a share and he's going through the whole thing at one point the person says no mama taster's yeah for about five minutes and he gives a whole beautiful answer that's absolutely brilliant it's the only time this fellow ever did it at the end he came up to him and says you can learn it this guy knows how to learn now he's telling me to know him better like him and said remy my eye what went on so he shows him the notes and the next thing was and if you asked me from the texas in the darum the rest was just theatrics but um so every now and then you get a question which is just being locked right over says the safer obviously these things were added in later they were edited later on why because as you pointed out they're in aramaic so anya is a very strange thing after you make kid-ish you say anyone who's hungry coming to eat why wouldn't you do that beforehand you know like before you made kiddush invite in the guests and furthermore it says uh anyone who needs to make pesach come in you know you can't do that with a carbon passage you have to join it before this manchester before the corbin pesach that you can't just do it whenever you want that is our introduction now to the seder this is the bread of affliction that our forefathers ate in the land of egypt this is not the matzah of gaula that represents how quickly the goula comes this is the bread of suffering that we ate in egypt anyone who wants can come in now and anyone once can come and join us right now for pesach you know why because we don't have a corbin pesach when you used to give a seder it had to be in your israelian it had to be on the ground floor and in the middle of the table there was a big corporate passage and that was the highlight of it so what the cypher is saying is anya is saying this is a virtual seder this is not the real sata as a real seder it wouldn't be uh anya uh that we're eating with the corbin passage and so this is we're going through the steps and that's where it ends now we're here next year we'll be in there shell now we're slaves next year will be free it's a it's a introduction to the seder and he says when you come to the end he says people say it wrong you should say it like that's the gd is when the time of the cat is katsos comes hatsos and bites the compressor candy de pescrazos then you come into the base of mcdosh and they make the fire which went up like a stick and then they give the corbin that you're going to bring on yonder to drink from the kiara and then you shake it and then you bring it and all of khadgar is just remembering what the corbin pesach was hashem it's not too late that maybe this year we'll have a real corbin pesach yeah all right anonymous asks an egg is parv a chicken is flashing at what point does the change occur hashem something else i know [Laughter] i have smekha i am a rabbi i'm an actual rabbi uh i i'm not really rap i bet i play one on television no i am an actual rabbi but i have a smile that's known as yora yora yara yara means that you study yaradaya that's really all that i know your idea is you're supposed to show that you can learn and then you go and expand it out or you just hold on to your smile and do other stuff like i do yeah so whenever anybody asks me a shiloh like someone brought me to fill in and say is this absurd i said i don't know drop it in a pot of chicken soup and i'll tell you what to do with it i'm a somewhere of a specialist i only know her cause more or less there was a big talk called me up once they asked me to shyla in tarubas and i said why are you asking me i mean this guy was a big tomahawk than i was he says i never learned isabetta and you have a myla you know what you know and you know what you don't know and you don't mix the two up yeah so i told him what i thought the answer was but i called another person just to double check and he said the same thing that i did i was pretty good what i what i know i know yeah or as i often say i don't do much but what i do i do exceptionally well [Laughter] so take an egg yeah this egg will always remain parv you know why because it's not fertilized and that's why uh if you find a blood spot we can be makel today because we know that it's not really blood spot from a fertilized egg yeah and that's why some posts can hold you could just remove the blood spot that's how could you how could you buy anything from a bakery you think they sit there and check every egg you know you buy some commercial product you know you think they're sitting there you know dragging your neck and checking at out because relying on the fact that the eggs are not fertilized if it's a fertilized egg you're okay unless you find a blood spot in it or a formed a slightly formed embryo of a chicken that is called a navella you cannot eat that egg that egg is us from the torah it's not flay shake it [Music] yeah so now there are certain people who eat fertilized eggs because they maintain that it's uh healthier okay you have to check that media rice and make sure that there's nothing growing in there yeah okay so when does this egg at this point if it's unfertilized it's parf if it's fertilized and there's nothing growing in there then it's um perf if it's fertilized and there's something growing inside then it's user if you wait until that egg gives birth to a little chicken then it becomes fleshy having said that the gemara discusses the formation of eggs you could check the chicken and find semi-formed eggs if it has not developed a peel around it yet that's a fleishig egg and you take it out of the chicken and that has a din of fleischick's there is a fleishiga egg so i hope you found this as exciting as i did because i think i gave an excellent presentation on this exceptional situation [Laughter] okay yehuda wenzelberg i hope i'm pronouncing that correctly asks why do causal say in sanhedrin when you not paying attention when we give up waiting for him when we dive in every day in schweinsteig that we await the yeshua and an imam and it says that we wait for sheikh to come every day thank you for doing this show it is the highlight in our family's life thank you so much but i think you need to do something else because this is only an hour and a week you know so you're gonna have to find something else but i i can't tell you you see this goes back to the very first question when people say how do you feel a connection when a person says something like this to me do you understand what that means to me that i'm sitting here recording this and it's the highlight of their family's life you know anyway let's answer the question um it's it's a mistranslation of does not mean that i'm not waiting means that i wasn't paying attention okay this is a deep cut there was a book written called the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy a very very weird book very weird book and then there was a sequel and then there was another sequel and at that point it was called the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy trilogy when the fourth one came in they called it the inappropriately named hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy trilogy this now there were four books when the first one came out it said the fifth in the increasingly inappropriately named galaxy anyway at one point the alien who befriended this earthling and after earth got destroyed so um uh he says wait i think i see something and he keeps like moving you know he says what is it he goes yeah there's definitely something there because how do you know he says he says yeah i can see it they're using an sep field somebody else's problem he says if you put up an sep field he says it could be a mountain you'll walk around it you'll climb over and you'll never see it because it's somebody else's problem so the only way you can see it is if you don't look for it because as long as you're looking for it you'll never see it because it's somebody else's problem but you could catch a glimpse of it out of the corner of your eye hezekiah means not that i'm thinking that i'm not thinking it's i wasn't paying attention that's something that comes very easily to some people yeah like um that's not important but anyway so uh uh you have to wait for meshiach are the people who make all the calculations like one year remember that someone brought uh how many kuf and sadi they were in the torah which spells kate's and then the number of letters came out to five thousand seven hundred something this year machine is gonna come because it's kate's in the torah yeah there are other examples of this throughout history where people say i know mashiach is going to come now the time used to give a suitcase packed ready for when mashir came and uh um he obviously was waiting for mushy but there was this tumult going around people made calculations mashiach is going to come this year said i guarantee you he's not going to come this year why because when you psych yourself up for he's going to come now he's not going to come it's going to be when you don't expect it i remember someone made a surprise party for one of my kids it was like two months after their birthday so they said uh it's not my birthday goes i know that's why it's a surprise if i did it on your birthday wouldn't be a surprise but i do it not on your birthday that's a surprise right it's it's something that's completely unexpected yeah jessica das means that i uh i wasn't looking this is a personal observation but i've spent years waiting to see when the street lights come on you know at some point they come on but i was never very good to see them come on i remember was one day i happened to be you know somewhere near the window and i was looking out the window and i suddenly saw them come on i didn't expect them those of you who use shabbos clocks the shaman's clock never turns on on the time that you set it and if you're waiting like you know okay it's 202 and 10 seconds of that thing where's the shower's gone this is not that precision piece of machinery that's going to have it turn on at the nanosecond you know this is not this is not a moon launch [Laughter] you're not paying attention suddenly it's on so it means that don't make all of your calculations eskaya asks is it true braille arielwski doesn't know his wife's favorite color what is the best gift that you ever got your wife um i told this story in the shidduch series that i said how long do you have to date before you get married so this girl said uh you well you have you have to know everything about the person beforehand like how could you get married you don't know you know your spouse's favorite color so i've been married for decades by this point i came home and i said to my wife what's your favorite colors because i don't know i don't know if i have one so i don't know what her favorite color is yeah what's the best gift you ever got your wife it's a very hard question that's a question for a man not for a woman uh john gray who wrote mena from mars and women are from venus who's much more of an expert on marriage than i am he's been married four times i've only been married once and uh he says that one of the differences between men and women is that men like a big act of kindness thoughtfulness you know a big thing they they like that and that means a lot and they'll think about a lot women like a lot of little things and so that's why husbands are always surprised like they spend a lot of time thinking of something for their wife and you know it doesn't have that uh lasting impact right a wife says to a husband do you love me he says i told you already i've told you a whole bunch of you know what if anything changes i'll let you know uh that doesn't work she wants to hear it over and over and over again i love you i love you i love you i love you men don't and that it's not the same thing yeah so um i've gotten my wife gifts over the years that uh you know i think she really enjoyed more meaningful but i don't think there was ever any one gift you tried to think what would a person like for example there's a mitzvah to buy your wife jewelry on yanteff right so there's three of those four if you count shamini out series how much jewelry are you gonna get so if you're gonna buy like the hope diamond nothing is gonna come close to that you know so you keep buying a different piece of jewelry they're nice ones you know once i got my wife this uh sort of like gold brooch she enjoyed it with a pearl in the middle she enjoyed it very much and then uh she forgot to remove it before it went to the dry cleaners and we never saw it again and uh i was looking around to buy her another brooch but she didn't want it on the brooch i asked her about it but she didn't want to broach the subject so uh so that's how that works and since i just mentioned that then i guess i'll just have to answer this one last question anonymous asks if the only reason why we laugh is because of the unexpected then why do we sometimes laugh at our own jokes in my case because they're unexpected [Laughter] what do you think i planned this out i told you i walk into the room and i sometimes say to michael what should i talk about i'm walking out the door i say to my wife what should i talk about yeah when i come up with a joke i i didn't i didn't think of it before yet i was just hosuring over the uh the purim episode which is uh uh which was a lot of fun you know i remember i used this word jewish you know which is for a female and they said uh no one knew that esther was jewish they said funny you don't look jewish now i still think that's one of the funniest lines i've ever said in my entire life i don't know if anybody else does but i definitely did and um uh you know i uh uh obviously i throw it up on the spot that's one thing the other thing is that um that even though you know the joke but the reaction is unexpected you know it's when you see everybody laughing at it that way so you become part of the audience who are enjoying it you know and you know what they say he who laughs last didn't get the joke okay so that's it for this week if you want to find out more about the show uh please go to my website rubyalaski.com you can send an email
