thrill to have you along with us and we're going to start with the sponsorship this episode is sponsored by Ellie in honor of his wife Shira on the occasion of their anniversary what a wonderful anniversary gift and I'm really uh every husband should really look into their soul and ask why you're not doing this for your wife because that's really I I look at Ellie and Shira and I say that's the that's the standard that every Jewish couple should shoot for Shira is a very dedicated Robert Alaskan show listener and is delighted that you are not dead Shira me too I remember when I had my heart attack a couple of doctors told me I wasn't going to make it you know and and afterwards I would meet people and they say you know a Daven for you I say well you know it worked I'm still here and you guys are still here and we should spend many many years together uh just a reminder we mentioned uh before about the join the WhatsApp uh rubber olowski show group there's some people who do not have access to all of these various platforms uh but they do have WhatsApp uh reasons I can't possibly understand but if you are interested in signing up for the WhatsApp group the WhatsApp number is 972-557-116-220 and then you will receive a audio recording of the podcast you will not be able to have any other visuals you know or things that go along with that but uh at least the audio you will have okay and now I share with you uh uh something I heard in the 1980s by uh a musician who was very popular back then called Huey Lewis he had a group called Huey Lewis in the news and he suddenly became this tremendous hit and he said it's interesting it took me 20 years to become an overnight hit what he said and I thought that was really too clever for Huey Lewis I looked it up of course I Googled it it was actually Eddie Cantor who said that first it takes 20 years to become an overnight hit but uh that's the quote I wanted to begin with because we haven't had this close of having a guest on the revivalowski show in a while and we are joined today by the famous ravgov who has been in the field of Jewish satara for a long time it's 20 years and all of a sudden he's exploded on the scene you can find him every place well the podcasts to have him you know the important ones I mean he now he's on mine so you know he's really made it you know but you know um I know ravgov has been on meaningful people uh they asked me and I said I'm waiting till they come up with a podcast called meaningless people because I'm really not that question but uh but revgav has been all around and now he's speaking all over the place and uh it's uh it's unbelievable I remember it was years ago that I spoke in h and you said please mention me and but now you're so far beyond that I have to say to you next time you speak maybe throw in a good word for me can we be clear on what that what happened to them do you remember what happened when I said please mention me uh what happened I said uh Rob I just mentioned here this is though you remember exactly what happened so you guys I don't have the whole thing I don't remember either but I was like mention me and you said uh oh gosh you basically threw me under the bus and then you go you're happy now you look at me you're happy I meant it I mentioned you about him saying you know uh revkov of course he was going to a person Hotel no one invited me right now it's going with his family everybody excited you know and uh every now and then I would say you know uh I just before I forget if God asked me to mention himself that's pretty good listen no honor you know um Rabbi yeah Samson from cartoon Inspire so uh when I used to work with him on on certain things he was still single he didn't get married till he was a little older you know so wherever I would go I would say you know I just want to acknowledge my Samson this year and could some girl please do us a favor and just marry him already just take him off the market because it's so pathetic and he he smiled politely as English people tend to do but sure everybody knows what's going on but of course the rebellowski audience only watches me and has no idea what's going on in any place else in the world so revgav who are you and where'd you come from what's your story with the rap god story yeah I mean especially because you know you you got that you got that uh cool nickname you know Rap God you know I have I don't have that I have Rabbi overlovsky yeah most people most people don't you know that oh some people by the way his last name is Friedman people even know that and that's what's in the coverage oh I'm sorry you know every now and then people meet me they go orlovsky are you related to the famous River Alaska I said no no it's a very common name when I call up and I say my name is Gabrielle Friedman no one has any idea I really don't know I used to say God and everyone thinks I'm saying God do you remember yahuda exclamation sure rollerblades and all yeah right yeah he was actually in my shirt or whatever at one point anyways if someone says to me my mom met him on a plane he says who are you he goes I'm Yehuda do I know you know so RAV gov is like you know yeah well originally it wasn't 12gov it wasn't that it was my name was first um my full Hebrew name Fred is Alicia Gabrielle oh my gosh when did you go with the Alicia we did and I was Alicia until I was six years old and then then I got into a bus when I was six years old I had a bus driver I'm not going to go into backgrounds of ethnicities and whatever but most drivers says to me boy what's your name whatever that would mean and I said I said my name's Alicia he said Alicia that's a girl's name that was the end of that I'm like it's like a-l-i yeah yeah in the non-jewish world right you know then my parents said no it's a navi I'm like what's a Navy I don't even care I'm going up to Derek because before there wasn't such a thing to go off you know I was only six and I'm like I'm changing my name did something I'm gonna go buy whatever and then it became Gabrielle and then it became God I understand Gabriel was an easier name for people to present well there's no women that are named Gabrielle as far as I know in the non-jewish world so it was not an issue Angel Gabriel the angel Gabriel so so became gav and then my grandfather called me ravgov uh when I was very little before you were around before I was involved in this world that we are in today and uh and then uh really give credit to one of my it's hard to know who but one of my students name is Ricky vigon one of the students from Asian 2006 2007 and he said to me uh someone said to ask what's your name and he said Rap God he said Rap God okay Rob got him they wrote it down like I'm teaching what seems like oh that's what I've got and I didn't even I didn't do that I was just like you know I'm like my name is Alicia the uh anyway from the five towns from the hey League of Five Towns we do the five yeah that's it though and that doesn't narrow it down a high like a big W from Woodmere not North Woodmere Woodmere the Alta country Woodmere New York from the heiliger Woodmere Young Israel wouldn't uh down the block based Fila um when I was running NCAA Long Island uh that was the only game in town yeah you know yeah no I mean Libor came in they brought him in he was like the young you know happening Rabbi you know I mean so yeah but anyway that's it wood mirror came towards yourself where did you guys OJ no before that oh hell your help help yeah have had a high school well first elementary school and then I went to DRS which is DRS which is the high school of Hell wait they make doctors yeah that was the first year of the US really yeah not the first graduating class but the first it was the first three years let's say OJ then with the early admissions yeah they asked me to leave that's right and uh I'm two years and I had a short stint in Lander couch for men I was there in the basement and then came back there with the cells and throw his motion for three years and then I started teaching in now were you always on this path to be a marvitz Tyra well at what point did you decide I'm unqualified to do anything else that's a big title but at least I don't think that's what I do I I said like you know I don't know what else it is really that I could do at this point you know so uh well I mean we'll see at this point maybe I'll go through real estate but anyway the that's a you know that says the people show themselves but uh it wasn't the concentrated effort and thought which is you just ended up yeah it was totally not a plan at all when I was 16 the ghost would make a lot of money and then I had a shift in in ncswicola the brainwashed me like crazy that was amazing you know let's see what color is familiar yeah it's just so cool amazing amazing and uh and then it shifted my mindset that I want to grow in terms of Torah and then it was just I just don't want to go to a school anymore so it's just to figure out how to how to make it I went to the Hebrew Academy of Nassau County and um in eighth grade I really really well who basically you know convinced you to come from that was before my bar mitzvah it was a January baby the beginning of eighth grade so if I remember Bar Mitzvah was basically from already and being by Nature an extremist personality I said well if I want to become from I'm going to become a rabbi by the way no I don't know what that meant right because I was eighth grade kid you know living in North America Long Island yeah but I was more or less going to go and become a rabbi you know and then rabbi goddessman who was the touring director and Steve Hamed I thought he was a friend who was the principal there at this time he was the assistant principal he was also the tour director in state Hammer this is back during early title bounds days you know so he convinced my parents to send me to stay heaven now this was a culture shock I mean my rebby was a was a satma who Yiddish was his first language you know he used to wake us up in the morning so I was like oh my God I'm at the camp you know they're coming to take me light up light up outside anyway so uh it was pretty scary but uh my learning director that the learning director of the camp that year was Cheyenne Cohen and my learning Direct by learning Rabbi was saw from words and they basically told us that if you don't go to heaven then you're not going to go to the next World so you should go there for the time status for 15 years and become a receiver so I was like okay [Laughter] cut out for that you know and so then when I was in LA I stumbled into ncsy that's I ended up going off to ncsy and I found myself in this field that I never would have anticipated right you know but I just had a skill for informal education because I wasn't that good at regular education but I was a master at informal education so uh so that's I I did feel as a kid in school that even if I didn't know the material that was being taught even if I didn't know what the teacher was saying like I don't know math I know science I had no uh American history or whatever was social studies whatever they called it but I did know one thing I knew I could teach better than he's teaching yeah like I I always felt I had a knack to be able to give over information but did you want to go into teaching or into kiru no no I never heard a curve I didn't you never heard a cure no it was a mistake this whole thing was a mistake the first time you started teaching in Ishita right that was a mistake I didn't mean to teach there how did that happen I didn't know it was in the wrong place at the wrong time I was running it's just a picture up at the wall yeah it's like what time is it that I was like what do you think I I didn't I didn't know what is I I even say a story that was a big name people know you should talk but uh I don't think as recently as 2005 2004. they weren't recently that's a recently over some people they're 18 now but but it was but it wasn't day uh 19. but it wasn't the household name in the from world he had a couple things here and there whatever in the Lakewood series you have to be in Lakewood or not religious to know you should talk yes anyone who's in the modern Orthodox world you still wasn't part of that world yeah at least as I never heard of it never heard of it it was very interesting I I taught in Asia Torah and I also toured some hair put both places and I was Magda the difference between the two institutions and when I set it over to H they said we would say that but or semantic would never agree when I said it towards they said we agreed that ancient her and everything yeah yeah or some Absa Yeshiva and it's basically you know encouraging people to come in and sit and learn gemara long term and uh and that's the goal it's Yeshiva it's just for people with with a little background yeah Aisha Torah is a cure of movement as much as it needs the Yeshiva to train the people for the Cure of movement they have an Yeshua but they're not an issue and each Place said to me they're exactly and that's why or Samaya with a twisted sense of humor decided to name the Yeshiva a name that Nobel chuva can possibly pronounce or semaic you know what I mean and then they made an advanced collo called which is good just having fun anyway now the real reason he told me that is because he wanted to give uh you know that uh Smith didn't have any sons and he wanted to give him a key imitation um but uh Aisha Torah changed his name to H you know why I don't I'm the nervous Flora was coming outside so it sounded too like chubby so they changed it just to H and also they wanted clear that it was this was a cube of movement this was you know and therefore in Asia Torah at least when I was there you know if you ended up going and staying and learning for the next 10 years you were a failure because you're supposed to go out and say call yourself that's that you know no said this to me many times and you ended up in in the mirror for the next 10 years you were tremendous success right are you saying everyone car have you ever failure if you if you leave if the after a year and go out and do care if so why aren't you sitting and learning right it's very interesting right so I I the kids went to the key room Center not it wasn't a Yeshiva for for Bali tuba you went to the kir of movement that's how I'd say the funny the funny thing which I don't know why every time I see this I don't know I don't just do it but when I started I was I was learning the cola and Taurus Moshe and Tomo and um which is Yeah well yeah well the guys were like the guys are good schmack but the place is a little bit intense yeah yeah yeah yeah I don't say you said Colt is everything and you said cult right I love Raymond and I love you know a lot of people now they're like yeah no it's right it's briska yeah yeah you know it's it's great for it really is wonderful questions about Eucharist what do briskets do coaching so I remember right so randomize when it was Paris was like this I said what's there of Malika like why when it comes to a bird do you checked in the back of the neck I don't know is it what's the share of kamitza by uh by America that you take three fingers you know I don't know I said why is there five variations I go to the basement I want to bring a member they say well you want to remember because I don't know I said you do you briskers this is what you guys do he goes I'll tell you how I'll tell you where I'll tell you when I tell you how much I never talk about why friskers don't talk about why you know yeah so yeah baby it was very good but I I had no idea about the Cure of yeah I was just looking for a job so how did you stumble into Ishita a cousin that was working there suggested because I did have a thought process once I was already learning that I was like you know maybe I'll go teach and maybe I'll give back and I wanted to teach 10th grade my northax kids you married at this time yeah I was married yeah 10th grade 10th grade I see is like 15 16 is when kids are starting to like break out if I can grab you at 15 16 then maybe I could help you make less mistakes you know you'll mess up but at least you'll have some sort of something that was the goal Hashem I think Hashem every day it never worked out I'm sorry for all those 15 year olds listening but uh let's just keep it at that and um wait you will stay on staying here yeah no no no no no I play Mr learning about yourself for a couple years after I got married and I was gonna go back and I was gonna figure it out how long ago is that so this is a this is a 2000 I got married 2003s in 2000 this is 2005 I was gonna about 20 years ago yeah 20 years ago 20 almost 20 years ago I was yeah yeah I was gonna this August I've been here 35 years right so this I came here for three years so this August had been 23 years I was supposed to go back 32 years ago exactly yeah but the packing is a real pain right well we got a bunch of kids it's a little hard yeah so so by Regis the goals to stay here learning two years my parents and those were kind of to say they're like okay well we'll help you out for two years which which meant something very different then does everyone should know the prices were very different and um but your parents are not north of that yeah I mean now they're now they be you know they now they once we know the kids messed them up right so now they uh they took them in a back alley once you go when my parents we're still Naturals they went to a peso program where I was uh I I went to a person program where they were you know but nobody made the association between them and me you know so I was giving a share my mom comes of course you know and afterwards the person says to my mother goes he's very good she goes oh yes because I hear his parents aren't from my mother goes no really who would have guessed she's like a good discussion wow you know I mean so you had modern parents and now suddenly you're like you're doing the you know you see this yeah they were modern right but no they wouldn't have supported my brother called me up after he's like how did you like how did you do it I mean no you know no it was not that it it was uh it was it was there was Trickum and stick them to make it work but it worked out but after two years of like zaga bench you know like uh like whatever good luck so then I discovered something called The Art of pilot trips I didn't know what this was I didn't know this thing existed I I put a resume I'm looking for whatever and some people calls up are you interested in what was like I was like I was like okay but how do I get you they're like what do you mean like we'll fly you a new iPhone he'll come out for like a couple days and we'll take care everyone to check it out it's like okay I gotta know what's happening I went I was like so to my wife I'm never getting a job I had a friend of mine once we had it we had this idea he said you know these seminaries charge you a hundred dollars for a registration fee and just open up and close it we were just going to open up try to get like a thousand girls to apply and then close yeah due to unfortunate circumstances we weren't able to yeah it wasn't accepted you didn't find anybody that we could possibly get who was on our level you know so what did we get it called I said but knows betsa anyway okay so we we uh we went around to a couple different places and uh remember what my brother used to say you better kill me with the first bullet because you didn't get in the second shot but I've been killed on the internet three times the killed they like you yeah and I was like I found that that when you die on the Internet it's like in a game you know you're not really dead you know wasted you come back no yeah you come back guys with the full power because you don't even know you don't even know you want to kill me they're gonna have to do it for real yeah the kids of this was when I was looking for different places to work I got offered jobs in every place that I went except for one which I'm not which I don't know if I should say so I won't but which means I will in a moment you know who you are I wanted that I was ready and I was ready I was gonna and I was so young and idealistic I would like it was I was like ready to change the world and uh and I wanted it and I had information already before I knew what they were gonna ask me I knew the interview I knew the questions I knew the answers like I knew what they wanted right and I played it off like you know I came in they're like what would you do in this scenario I was like I totally said exactly what you wanted to hear and they didn't hire me and I was like what like the one place that I was interested in didn't work out okay it's a long story Seattle my cousin told me about age I ended up checking it out and and they hired me for the summer the kids are fast forward and we'll go back fast forward I'm in age this place where I wanted to work shows up with a group I want to finish the group they come over and said you know you're looking for a job yeah so I said maybe you don't remember me but let me introduce myself yeah I said I very much wanted a job but you didn't hire me and like now it's not really shy but maybe in the future who knows whatever so it never went forward but it was just so funny that like the one I think obviously everything's happened to my everything's you know there's a plan I never looked for a job in my life every job I had I was either offered or pressured into taking because it goes about who knows that I'm not Iceland and you know and he arranged for me to do things so after I after I had left the rest of America I was just waiting for the next door for to come along and that was about 10 years ago and it hasn't come yet and uh it's it's Hashem you're young and Hampton you're at the height but you know when you reach a certain point you realize that the world is basically done with you you know it's uh it's sobering anyway we get like the music on this like like let's cue the violins I'm just waiting to die but the uh invisible at all but the amazing thing was at some point somebody sends me a message who is on a tour that I was with and he says listen actual is looking for a rabbi you know I think you'd be a perfect fit for the neighbor yeah I said okay listen I'll tell you what I am and I'll tell you what I'm not you know I am not a world-class basic I you know I I can answer basic child is and otherwise this is who I go to ask my child is to but if you look at someone to teach and to work with families and build a community I I can do that probably better than most you know they said that's exactly what we're looking for you know if you're looking for me to you know I mean I mean yeah you got the right guy yeah so I wrote up the first resume in my life that I ever wrote and I sent it off and it was during covet so we had a you know a video you know uh interview and I thought it went great I mean I'm a pretty good judge of these things I thought oh great I was just waiting for the offer to decide how to handle it you know and then I get a form email you know dear applicant thank you so much for your interests right the congratulations like Mom is as as applicant number five possibly be like not even like remember Alaska we appreciate you about playing that since dear sir and I was like oh wow that's never happened I never applied for a job and I was never turned down because I never applied you know so it was kind of strange so here you are with these people who broke your heart if you look back would it have been better if you took that job no no it just thought it was made for you oh it was amazing amazing amazing no it was an H dog could be amazing and yet that other place might have been your calling I didn't name it so I'll just say that it would not it probably would not have been a good idea let's just put it that way probably wouldn't have been good idea I think I would have been able to be my spia in a lot of people I think so but it would not have been a good idea so I ended up basically Ace didn't hire me like full time the the line was you got to be in the field for 10 years you know if we even touch East Jerusalem you know they they offered me other places you want to go like a Madison Wisconsin [Laughter] why would anyone go to Madison unless I I had no idea what was going I mean they have a cold Wisconsin is cold cold sorry this is good I mean my wife's from Canada so she's used to that but like we're in Canada Montreal yeah okay forget about it when hell freezes over it already did in Montreal they say that the tourism sack like why is it we don't do suck it why is sukis in the in that time of year right why do I do it right right because you know if it's by pace of time it's it's it's the Aviv it's a nice I was in Montreal pace of time yeah and I'm not kidding when I tell you 10 feet of snow because the plows lifting them up they had the walls of snow pesos and I was like the tour with all the respect and like we're doing suckers right now like this is like it's great I know somebody was in Miami and he said they have air conditioning in this sucker otherwise you don't get the Mitzvah right because it's tired as Potter and it is so hot and humid so this time I was in I was in I was in Miami once uh in September I I walked for Arab shops I took my showers or dressed I worked from the door to the road to get my my car I soaked yeah it's like you wait for a hurricane to just cool everything off yeah so it was like it was like uh but no it was it was the best there are many things I didn't know what they were often I didn't understand I didn't know what they said it was so I came in like asking for a job like 10th grade you know Jamie Cowan placement at the time he's like what this is man you were there when when uh with North was still there yeah sure yeah no passing 2009 and I started in 2006. so for the first two years the last year he was he was you know pretty much it was out and it was very weak and for the first few years he was traveling half the year you know but I used to give like the schmooza Thursday shoes and I had a couple fights with him I went I went at the speak with him a few times five levels I smoked you better what's up we're not going to get there but the point is five levels yeah I know and I didn't say anything this never happened I'd like to return no I won't tell it I'll tell my story with the five levels of pleasure I sat through three people giving it and I listened to the to the recordings and I read the outline and I said no one can explain second level pleasure if you want to understand what it means is is that fifth level pleasure the lowest is physical pleasure the next level up is called love the third what level up is called um uh a meaning the fourth level up is power and the fifth level up is Hashem so you know sometimes these things get accused of being like pop psychology I said okay what's the Macaw for this they said so I look it up and it says the way you get average members we're knowing it's greater than Mamon bun him and covered I said great that fifth level pleasure is is money and then comes which is love and then comes covered which is meaning there's no power now I understand why nobody can explain it I got three different versions of this kind of it wasn't there I finally took out the English one and they said there's a gearsa that says Cipher I said then it's only four levels of pleasure that's why no one can explain I did not say this but anyway I said it and I went back to them I'm not saying that that said I had an argument and I wasn't given that class in this before Oh I'm shocked before we spoke on we met him around so we had a little bit about this I went to an organized I had that within my level two because I didn't understand like what that would be a problem with what's going on and and I also been Yeshiva I looked it up and I didn't I'm like am I missing something like what's going on here there was one argument we had and what happened he fought through uh with what he wanted to the point you wanted to make it was already listen I guess I was a young I was a whippersnapper and he's a little bit older whatever a couple years older than me so I I didn't I didn't push too much another time I had an argument with him about cast like what is cast mean and who did he get angry at me what am I doing no you're not sufficient easily you might throw what he believes it so is whatever but kids say I didn't know what was going on Jamie plays he's like placed me all over the world and then it was like there was it was a theoretical you didn't go anywhere no we did we went to whatever we didn't end up going in we're in a pilot trip but we didn't do that we didn't end up going anywhere although although we possibly would have if you if you know who you are are watching we possibly would have if you look at your last email we we uh whatever I'm listening to say this is your chance this is the scores no negativity there's someone who I loved yearly I really love him dearly but uh I know who you are we're going to get you you know you know the best part about this is like if any HP watches they're gonna send all around H and they're gonna be like okay who's the guy you know I'm not seeing who you are but you are lovely and I love you and I really do my brother has four sons and at his fourth son he made a big bar mitzvah in a hotel you know and the a lot of people and he said you're all here because my wife invited you if it was me I would have invited four of you to my house for a barbecue the rest of the Shabbos people like you think yeah it was one of them like which ones yeah so so every age Branch right now there's one so that somebody wanted to come in and I kept asking asking what is it not not because I would ask but my wife is a very like detail-oriented and you know like paper scheduled and all that kind of stuff you know and I'm very not that type of thing so I would have been like let's try you know but my wife is like what are we getting into here my wife comes to every known that says aren't you supposed to be teaching somewhere now yeah I'm terrible I can't get my schedule yeah okay we can start the rest of the show back yeah that's what last time I went to America you know they were gonna fly me in I said you have to pay for my wife too she goes really I said I don't know where I am you expect me to show up you need my wife to make sure that I get there you know yeah there's one person who knows that yes the way I put on my cufflinks for you I hope you appreciate it yeah I put on my uh yeah my time put some stays in I put some stays in yeah because uh I um when the pays come out what's with the page let's say our favorite institution I've got to finish this story I got because I don't know if you noticed but I guarantee people out there like can they finish the story yeah we've been through like 12 different stories yeah I I went to the student Maybe they take to change a light bulb I said how many he says you want to ride my bike there you go we both went yeah anyway yeah yeah but I used to teach you know it's a male there was a guy whose driver was when I went on a tangent so remember where you are he would write down where we are because I would just go tangent the tangent and after I say how do we get here and there we go I don't know I I I have this amazing gift that you have and uh but I was given another gift to remember to be able to go back but I'm getting older and I'm realizing I can go back a couple of steps again like I turn my I pause I'm like the funny thing is like I'm sure I don't know if you had this but when I first started like you know a little insecure I don't really know what I'm doing I'm just teaching whatever and there's just a little bit like you know I hope people like my speech and yeah and it would be like a little nervous like what if it didn't go well now it's just like you know so if I lose myself back in there I would I would just go on to another fact you know now I just stop Mike where are we where where what was I talking about someone in the room was like in the middle you're up to this I'm like oh okay good in the middle of a story and and I told people I said you could watch if I get that flash in my eye it's panicked yeah it means I'm saying to myself yeah I said the story is going to end and I don't remember why I voted backwards and I'm in the middle of it and I'm like and and you know and then I and then I move on to some other like everything exactly yesterday well see what I'm doing man now that I've been doing this long exactly did you hear Ruby wine speak yeah years ago very slow and kind of like folksy I remember when I was going and it's just kind of folksy kind of thing you know and uh that's what I switched to now I just get up there and do stream of Consciousness I just start I say if having a podcast has taught me one thing I can speak for 200 hours with no preparation came in the public in the public sphere I mean the Shiva World knew him relative obscurity yeah and suddenly the whole the whole world and he started giving me he was giving something like 35 shiram a week and and and this woman I love her the fact it was still in six stories and it just not ended I don't know the point is that uh that I'm trying to be most of my audience trying to feel the audience when do you have time to prepare so he goes what do you think I was doing last years doing for 35 years the reason why you can get up and and and speak is because this isn't just like you just started right you've been doing this for years and you learned and you know what's gonna yeah you went to shiram and you gave shiram and you prepared and you know so there's a lot going on over here do you ever seen peso Crone how he prepares the uh talk yeah he was yeah he's got all of his stories on index cards and he assembles them together and then his notes are just the numbers and he puts him in order he liked the fact that like there's different styles so when I get up I don't have notes at all right and I don't think he liked that he's just like it's it's guy but you have to have a written them whatever it is it's like that's not where my brain works my kid said to him because I heard you have this whole system and he shows him the whole system with the numbers in the necklace he goes wow it's amazing he goes well doesn't your father do something like that he goes no he just talks he goes well doesn't he forget things all the time sometimes sometimes the punch line of the whole of the whole speech he forgot to do but I will tell you just to just to jump on another train when people ensure you've had this over the years when people we spoke about this briefly when some someone um people come to me all the time that's that's not true but there are many times people have come here my grandmother always said you know I was like awkward that's all she said exactly I once thought someone would ask me yeah you know people ask like I want to be a speaker like you I want to spill how do I how to be a speaker I tell every one of them one thing I said you will not succeed give up now but then after that I say okay I don't say it but I think it sometimes but I I say um if you want to do what I'm doing just go to YouTube and learn just learn you have to learn Torah everything comes from the door so whatever jokes you're gonna have whatever stories you're gonna have that's from your life that's gonna happen but if you want to give over stuff you have to have what to give over so just learn to her that's it anyone be a speaker um anyone can speak anyone can hone skills in order to be better than they are I do think that there are certain things that the bonus room gives particular talents or Direction let's call it for particular people and I think because I'll say that if you have the student levim or two different jobs in the basement there's at least two of many of them jobs some of them were meant to be which are those that stand guard by the gates and there's some that supposed to be sharing those that sing and and results say that a short is kind of Misa if one that's meant to sing is standing guard or one that's sitting guard is meant to sing it sings Why why it's just because that's not what you're meant to be doing Evelyn is meant to be doing something if you're not doing what you're meant to be doing so what do I need here for so some people are jump into the glamor of whatever it is I don't know what glamor they see but there's this glamor apparently oh you know what the glamor is the glamor is a high of people that are looking at you and listening of some sorts but glamor comes from someone who has not bombed that's where the that's where the glamor comes from you get up and you're like hey everyone's like yeah you know what I mean but if you get every like yeah tell me a bomb you had where it's like or it's like Get Me Maybe I didn't have this but no I always say it's the worst profession in the world it's the worst profession in the world because if you're a plumber they bring in to fix the toilet so either the toilet works so it doesn't work and if you say I didn't do a good job of bringing another flush it works you know what I mean but if you're a speaker you can't say I gave a great speech it's your fault that you didn't like it yes then you're completely Tully on the people the point is when they come and they ask me can I can I be you the answer is they say what did you do in order to do this this happened recently this guy comes over to me he saw me in my car he says he says that you have God you know I said no speak English and I don't speak a sir you know he's like she's putting me in Arabic like gonna be no speak English you know so so I I said yeah what's up you know he said I'm trying to do what you're doing like I want to do what you're doing so like what kind of social media like how do you how do you like put out the in the social media I said I don't have social media he's like would I could see his brain going like error error ever he's like what do you mean so how do you so how do you whatever I was like I don't whatever what do you want to know you know well how do you get out there I said I just teach and sometimes people record it and they put it out so anytime emotional and everything I don't have a camera that's uh I don't do it they come they call but this guy said he messing around do you teach them what can I come tell me anytime is like I don't know if they do this too so many times said he told me they have 500 people on a waiting list because they just they just don't have the facilities to yeah handle that they also have a lot of people sleeper cells that are waiting to record if you deter anytime you ever come after you like to record you yeah all the time right and like do you ever show up at a place and they're there and like yeah you didn't tell them yeah you know so it's like three o'clock in the morning you go to your kitchen you're like who are you like you know they're everywhere you know so it's like they record they put it on someone else but they put it on on uh on the tube whatever you call that thing oh let's put up Here There and Everywhere right and they put all over and uh like really really um okay so I made a website revgov.com sign up today big things coming huge things what do you have on your site I'm not sure but huge things you gotta lay the the foundations I gotta make this out here note to self make site today I call videos a couple of things and whatever you know it's like listen you know the world of of this uh of the ADHD deliciousness um the other day I went out to buy milk and uh I moved to another country and learned how to ski you know like where was I going you know it's like you started I started a website the thing like I did and then I have to get back on the worst part is when you have ADD and then you get older and the memory loss kicks it delicious so it's like I work in the kitchen and I say why am I here I opened the refrigerator and I said I wanted to get something I I just this is that my whole day such a crisis never know where I'm going beforehand now I forget why I was even having me to go here so the answer is that that that um everyone can get better at speaking and there are certain people that have a real talent I don't know I don't know the word I don't know if the word is Talent I'm not sure what word to use but they seem like they can I think it's with everything though in other words there's certain people who are gifted musicians yeah Mozart was composing music at the age of five you know Twinkle Twinkle Little Star he wrote that it was something in German whatever it is but uh he he wrote that back to the Hank days and uh and then and so okay so now you teach him he's going to become better at it you know but anybody can learn how to play the piano you know and and yeah yeah I mean that personally yeah when I was writing articles in the hamadiya about you know so I was talking about children's tapes and things like this and I gave a big plug to his his things his video young papers I thought were brilliant well everybody in my family from all ages enjoyed it he calls me up he says you're the first person to ever acknowledge what I do would you imagine that like somebody like someone come to it was so famous I sent the article to my mother that she should have an office that's I met Yono weinreb you know you don't know why rubus sure yeah yeah have you ever seen these artsy benches it's like beautiful oh yeah it says it's all Yono wine oh I never noticed so I didn't know it's a real person like imagine it's like you know uh sounds like your wine wrap like I I and one day this guy comes into Asian I said he says I'm like the piece of art and he's like he's like well I mean an artist I was like I didn't think of you as a real person like I thought of you as an empathy you know Uncle Moishy like he said these are the names are so big that you expect like well I'm gonna say you're good everybody knows that you're good so no one says anything though what he says to me is his early tapes like Burke learns his Brokers and stuff he just took Jewish songs and put that already existed he says then I realized I needed my own songs I didn't know anything about music right so who gave me the ability to compose songs so all those songs on the on the daily he wrote them he's he says I need to do it so that's what I feel like I feel like there's certain people who are Nashville speakers and there are other people who if they want it badly enough because we'll give you a question so that's why I think that's the difference between rookies and gashmias right in the world of rookness there's no ainself Hashem open up those and open up gaseous in order to do there are certain limitations that exist in the existent of world right so I don't know what the muscle is today but oh Michael Jordan will always be like the guy in my head so like even though I'm a Celtics fan even though I don't really care and I never did but my brother was my phone so I had to be so become that rebbe that we have in high school what do you think uh I didn't watch Lou Gehrig I'm like Bill Russell which is like I uh gosh I only realized recently all day but I'm not gonna go down that road right now that'll be the next Sky thingamajig but but the point is that um I remember the point anymore let me go back to another story all right go ahead let me tell you something I'm sorry is hanging being like what they do and H what they do right since I went to age but I went there as a colonel guy I didn't know I was supposed to do Kira nah I didn't know so I get in there and they hire me only for the summer I got a job just so it's not like I need a job they give for the summer right every it was Seattle it's my every teacher they had was away for the summer something happened this guy's father sick another one at a birthday party and they had a series of unfortunate accidents yeah exactly clear to clear the path for Michael red track some were pushed over towards whatever they weren't there anymore anyway so I hate to see something happen to you and your family so something happened to many of them it could be the people from Chicago are involved anyway so I uh and he um he was in charge of like all the flow it was the summer there was like people coming in and it was still it was it was the end of the era of like random people you know like just it was before the iPhone it was before they whatever so people still like traveled and did stuff and whatever it is I go in there and um everybody was away so they just needed someone to do something right and uh I was teaching from two to five so I went there I said which what do I teach he's like I'm like okay you know so it slots two to three three to four four to five I know I'm doing pictures of Indiana that was two to three three to four gamara Rashi tosos four to five we were doing inside all these guys are totally secular right and they're ranging from like 18 to 35 40 you know they're coming in I didn't know any better I didn't know I'm supposed to tell him there's a God I didn't know I have no idea and I'm sitting there and I'm teaching and I sat on the downstairs in their lunchroom there's a balcony off the lunchroom you know the balcony that overlooks like whatever and we had three four tables put together and and I had guys coming some stayed from two to five some walked in just for two o'clock some just for three jumps before I'm teaching I'm I'm teaching like I'm in Colo look I'm teaching these guys they're like I'm like I'm a guy's line when the foot line down I buy the two dots they're like by the colon I'm like what's a colon two dots one dot on top of another dot you know they're like what is two of us like all these Shiva guys know what that is you know like you know I'm like all right turn around like where I'm like right there they're like I'm like just read it's like I don't know how to read I'm like what I'm like are you Jewish she's like well my my dad is I'm like what's going on here I tell you I had no idea what's going on that summer I think this is how it started then I was like Are You Gonna Keep Me on because I need a job they're like no no this is just a summer thing and then like at the end of the first I'm like Are You Gonna Keep Me on because I need to find a job like no no it's just the type of thing and then it's like two weeks before the news about I'm like are you gonna keep him out and they're like you know what let me see and then they kept me on for a couple just for that slot two to five but I had to find another job morning night whatever so I just continued what I was doing I didn't know age classes I didn't know five levels of pleasure I didn't know what happened to 48 ways and dare I get fired again I still don't know the 48 ways I've never listened to avoid anyways I never watched before anyways I've been teaching store for 17 years I I I I I know the osmosis and I got the basic just what's going on people used to say to me ah you're such an age guy and I used to insulted because I'm like I'm not about juva like well why not says the rebel okay fine I get it right but I'm not about you I go whatever and then I realized if what they meant was is like you're like with Noah like you're just passionate about what you do and whenever it's like okay I think there's a compliment you know I'm a nice guy no problem but I still I still got brainwashed into the Yeshiva World they said like my thing is like my goal was for cement right I am teaching or summer agent no you have It's the funniest guy I've not now then when I'm sold hold on this is the main point I then shifted into like okay it's not philosophy you know and like first cause and then how do we know and uh you know and happiness and like all that kind of stuff and they're great it's wonderful it's really wonderful but I can tell you that the guys that I had in that I had involved with in that first year off the top of my head I can tell you at least I'm just immediately five guys at least five guys I know immediately that are married learning in Colville today full on from and those are the guys who are thrown into my Colwell I was teaching Colo in the afternoon Ash and I would say it's a lot more than that that are from show me Shabbos today I don't like to say I I heard you say something once I'll repeat it another time I'll tell them yeah I'll tell you what it is I don't care we were on we were in a panel together yeah we did during covid we did a bunch of yeah we also did it in person a few times and uh yeah dare I remind you that was the greatest battle ever it was Friday night so no one could see it maybe Juan was let me get my voice back for a week oh what a good schmecker panel do you remember when I was I was the arbitrary I was the I was like were they mean yeah no no really they're agreeing you're like so there are no problems so which one is it Valentine anyway anyway whoever was there knows all right anyway we did it did a panel and this was out on Friday it was on a Sunday a bunch of years back project compressing inspired panel is myself remember the dock of Solomon and it's like felt like yeah and it was on a Sunday morning I always tell people why I can't be on a panel I said watch that it's it's on YouTube you can watch it you know I don't play well with others it was great but that's one question ask the question then we'll come full circle believe that the other stuff that's the question of how do you feel when something that you are Makarov goes off the Derek let's see if you'll answer the same thing do you know what what would you answer I was like Undo It me right I'm just saying this was mom is the best culture yeah so if I say ideas and people like it great and and what I always say is if I'm going to take credit I'm going to tell you what you said all right because it's exactly the greatest line I didn't forget your name I was messing with him so Rabbi Samson um was the moderator yeah and he's like do you care what do you if yo it goes off the Derry again so Jakob Solomon gave psychological analysis of the feelings of what happens when you build someone and then they leave who is my learning director my second year in stay coming he is he has some great material and well he's he actually has an education no he's good he's good yeah listen you know Mark you know I'm not very educated because I said a name in the second one anyway I don't know but Samuel Clemens Rabbi Clemons anyway so I don't really know what he said but anyway the point is that uh no the greatest line he said was I never let my schooling get in the way of my education there's there's a thought out there that people feel obviously I'm on one side of this uh debate but if you go to high school in college so now you're educated right don't be fooled I mean Samuel Who The Wizard of Oz He says scarecrow there are people with no more brains than you but they have something you don't have a college degree so here's a college degree he goes hey script must be his favorite c squared I'm a genius it was one of the most brilliant pieces of satire ever you know the craziest things I'm sure that if you go to college yeah but people watch that don't laugh yeah they're like they think they hate it oh you know anyway point is that uh so they asked each one they asked Salomon Yakov Salma he said he said uh fell time gave like a Maharaja or whatever you know he is very very good also and then they got to me I'm like I was like listen I don't even know what they said I'm pushing back I don't even know that I was just like yeah it's painful whatever they go Robert lavski how do you feel I don't care and the whole place was like what so the ones that know you laugh the ones who don't know you was like what does he mean he doesn't care he's like listen he's like listen yeah listen 40 people in a room in the room okay and three of them become religious and I take credit for those three people then I have to take credit for the 37 that didn't become religious you know what I don't think credit for them I don't want to get it for them and each one can do whatever they want to do you know I don't know what the responsibility oh but it's a real forget whether you want it or not it's your facilitators I'm here to help you if you would like to but don't blame me and I by the way I use this concepts of you know the things you say but I have to add something to the learning things like that but but there's one thing I see when people come to me they ask questions I'm not coming to tell you what to do I'm here just to give you an opportunity to see other options and now it's up to you to decide and if you're successful don't blame me for your success and don't blame me for your failures you're making decisions over here I'm here to facilitate you who cares I'm here to facilitate you I'm here to help you and uh and to get that but if it's up to you to be able to do something okay to not connected and you know just to say one thing that for all the listeners out there that they should you know pass this on to other people as well I know if I told you I told you your son-in-law not long ago and saw him in our Zeal of the known whatever one of you or something and then you're like who's my son I have kids like what's going on here anyway this is another line I just heard on the way here I was talking to someone and someone said robertski once said this just happened to me all the way here I heard three things about you in the past week yeah it went to a lotion hard but this one so this this one goes into the valley what do you say um oh this is my own thing you know because I feel I got compared to you a lot when I was when I was starting there's two people people compare me to they compare me to Robin Williams and to David olowsky these are these are the two that people come over to and when I said to you I don't know if you're if you're if you're appreciative this or not I apologize if you're not but I don't know if you remember I called you after your heart attack and I said I just want to thank you because I got a lot of business you I'm not kidding I got it like they're like people calling in France like that night you're supposed to teach in in Modi in yeah that's right and he called me up he's like listen overlovski he's not doing well I'm like what are you talking about he's like yeah the harder you're like oh my goodness that's terrible and they said can you come teach I was like oh I hope he gets better hey I'm lucky I pulled through after all those people in age suddenly disappeared in the summer exactly yeah who are no longer teaching there anyway so so uh kits I got compared to a lot of things so okay I I heard you as a kid like when I was younger I remember specifically where I was listening to show everyone's which I don't remember the answer but remember I was bothered by remember the embarrasses about low school and things about Miriam why iron didn't get Saras okay everyone gets to us Aaron didn't give it to us you give a whole about it I listened to it 23 years ago I was in OJ I was listening to it on a tape and uh I don't remember the answer but anyway here's the point anyway so so you're like I don't remember either but anyway I applied this um the one thing that that I think I think that people don't understand you and uh and what I would listen to okay so there's some things I found funny some that a lot of humor I connect to because it's I'm very similar to it so it doesn't it doesn't make me laugh because I see it coming because it's my personality but the token that you give over I hope you appreciate it though can you give over because so when you give up I am much more moved by that than you know I'm not like thinking about like rubber Lasky I'm I'm taken by the the vartner I I tell you just I'm curious if you ever felt this way did you ever feel when you're going to give a talk every day in front of a big audience let's say they're paying you and they're bringing you out of course they apply your first class yeah right Rabbi stop it I know I'm in a little boat that uh you're gonna get up like you have to do a good job every single time every single time Chris is like I said to you it's just I was wondering well it was just the other than smiling you shouldn't feel any lockers it was one sentence you should really love us then no because otherwise they don't get paid uh I lose my location okay and understand like this is my paranosa you know so I was on a tour once to like a bunch of schools and and shows that I gave the same exact speech in the same exact way to every single place it hit it out of the park it was unbelievable I went to one school nothing same thing the same exact speech so I know it's not me and I know it's like the speech I don't have to be nervous about it it is because then that place doesn't invite you back yeah but okay because you just went back yeah I'd be talking you weren't good who cares so what can I do I wasn't I wasn't good by the definition of did the people enjoy it the people don't enjoy it you know now there are some places I go where if they know me I'm a lot less nervous because I already have that's open that's reputation right it's one time I was speaking and uh and I tell a joke everybody's laughing the guy says I said this person next because I don't get it he goes neither do I oh but they knew it was funny yeah they knew that his son wasn't them that they didn't get the joke but of course the joke was right but it's my job to still point out the to those who are listening to pay attention to the Homer I think it's missed there's so much Miss because people people come for a show or whatever it is that's what I want to give them I want to give them that's right this podcast I think is unique in the sense that the October podcasts where people are giving shiram and this late sun is podcasts where people are just making fun you know but I try to present Torah in an entertaining way that people who aren't looking for a share or looking for Content but to give it an entertaining way that they're having a good time right I always say if if I could do one thing in the world it's I want people to feel like being from and learning Torah is a fun time it's good it's enjoyable right that's what I try to do so going back to what we were just talking about which we weren't about 20 minutes ago about so can a person uh can anyone teach and you said you believe got the musical abilities or whatever it is right that's because here's what I want to suggest I don't know smoke under I never met him I know who he is I never met him but I imagine he wasn't doing it for fame and fortune he he wanted he felt like he could give over stuff in a way that could help people so since he felt that way he had Seattle this time to do such a thing used to say I never asked whether I could do something right I asked whether something should be done and I know Chris Brown would give me the ability that's right right so that in this context if someone comes over to me and they say how do I be like you exactly if your goal is is for the is for the fame and fortune um I can't speak like Ruby wine right I can't my audience would fall asleep you know I can't do peso Crown I would have a heart attack right I can't keep up that level of energy I'm like oh wow you know eight times funny eight times he introduced me once absolutely of course and it's five minute introduction question when I got to speak I said you just heard more sources in the five-minute introduction than you're gonna hear my entire this year it just rattled you up this is actually done three places in the dementia over here I was like I couldn't possibly do that so you have to find your voice it's about my friend yeah right my friend basically presents a mission to brew in a dramatic Way Comes the mission of Brewer and asks yeah listen to this question you're talking to the from audience yeah I really understand he says um this phenomenologically speaking will never redundantly be done extraneously or ephemerally [Laughter] so I had an experience recently yeah where I was going to speak somewhere and I felt like I had to perform not performing a performer I mean I don't think I have to be successful I always feel like I felt always I'm so nervous everybody get here I felt that so I I'll tell you about that in a second so I felt like I had to do well and I was talking with one of my tummy then and I'm like preparing and I'm and I'm trying I'm like in my head I'm like how do I do this successfully and I'm thinking like so what can I do to impress and whatever and as I'm talking and I'm thinking like wait a minute if they hired me it's because they saw something I did and they liked what I did which means they like me and here I am overthinking what can I be right to impress them and I'm like wait a minute I don't have to do anything to impress them I just have to be who I am that's it and about I mean as as you already disclosed you prepare your shiram never so I sat down to be fair when I'm doing a new share and a new topic I do I write the whole outline Roman number one so I I sat down before this one weeks before but really 45 minutes before and I was in the building and I sat down I took a paper and I just wrote down I took a second paper I just that okay rearranged and but again like we said many years so it's like a new share I hadn't given it before but you know from learning and different things doing that this is a lot of material that comes up all the time so uh I got up there and I was just myself and believe however I think it was successful I think it was impactful okay so back to can people be good speakers the answer is if you really care then you want to do the right thing in life don't ask me how I became me just just do just do what you got to do this and share me upset this mine I'm happy to help with pointers right of you know what not to say knowing your audience understanding backgrounds of people uh how to present order as a structure there was a guy who came there's a guy who came through I don't know I'm not going to say his name although again he wouldn't mind really but um he came to a bunch of years ago he was this guy came out of nowhere I don't know who he was she was a guy that told us standing in a she would come to my essentials which is the beginner program he would stand in the back I'm sure over the years you had people that pop in and just stay there for a couple years and then disappear so this is one of these guys pops in and I would notice in the back like when I would quote certain things to be like you know when I said a joke he never did that yeah he he liked my scum on my jokes but you know my casals he's like oh that's a Kaza I'm like what do you mean about a Zara anyway so so he he he he he used to come and I met him I saw this guy he had an interesting Dynamic of like he was shy but I saw that he had something there I said to him you got to start getting out you got to start giving teaching Torah he had he'd been learning his whole life the guy finished his shots every year whatever one of these guys you know that every year but a couple years he finished the Johnson and and he learns and his teaching has been in Cola forever so I said I said you got to get out there and the kids are he he really did I watched him teach the first time first time he thought it was a painful experience now he's great and he had but he had it you know he has it and it wasn't like I have to be is he in the field today yeah yeah yeah no he's doing really well he was like he's not out in the speaker's Market he's teaching a lot of initiative seminaries and things like that I think that's like generally how it goes anyway like you teach like a seminary he's speaking about jumping to go once or something like that and then all of a sudden you're a speaker then that happened once yeah absolutely well I actually started to learn how to speak when I was in ncsy as an ncso usual director so I would have to give dresses and shows and I'd have to give speeches and things like that so I had that experience you know going into it and then when I started teaching so I was already there you're able to draw on your skill sets yeah so I had some experience with it yeah that's why you should go to Asia tour that that's that's you know just bring everything listen nobody has any use for me you know you're a young and happening you know where where is ravgov going now where is he heading where is it taking now you can stay in Asian teach there you understand how often you go out speaking as often as someone calls me to come speak yeah you don't have an agent yeah I don't have officially no the answer is me you call me up ravgov.com right brought to you by robgov.com so I mean like how many times how many trips do you make day a year uh it varies you know doing Corona zero right and uh the year before then after zero zero zero but every couple once every six weeks once every whatever it is it comes out in clusters it's not it's not you know I was better that way because then you have to keep flying back and forth yeah but the the challenge is that when there's a cluster it's a clut you know so it's

days and I was lucky my career collapsed before covet so I didn't have to blame it on Coast um although I have to say you know I don't know how many people actually listen me I know about ten thousand but but there's there's obviously more than that because I mean people who you know download it and give it out to a few hundred people on this stuff all kinds of things so but I can trace about 10 000 people however do you speak to an audience of 10 000 people I mean the largest audience I ever spoke to is with the American solution can is uh three thousand women you know but every week took to ten thousand people I usually when I go it's usually between 10 and 15 000 people wow I'm telling you I walk by the streets it's not the biggest the biggest event that I that I personally spoke at was
