So before we sing this next nigam, I just am so excited to, we just sent out word and put out the flyer for what we're working really hard on making sure is a sukkah slick, like we can never forget.
Not for the reasons that we think, that we can never forget it, that we couldn't go anywhere and that we would do this on board.
But I'm so honored that I'm gonna be joined every night of sukkahs from Motzei Shabbos, Sunday night, Monday night, Tuesday night, Wednesday night, Thursday night, and Friday afternoon.
We're going to be live streaming from our sukkah, Simchat Beit HaShueva, every night at 8.30 p.m. until approximately 10.30, 11.
And every night, two or three, sometimes even four, of the sweetest people in the world are going to be joining from their sukkahs, virtually, Zooming, and they're going to share some of their Torah and Enigim.
And we're going to have a little bit of a conversation about the Kedusha of the Chag.
And this includes, I'm so humbled to say, Rav Moshe Weinberger is going to be with us.
Rav Lazar Brody, Rabbi Judah Mischel, my dear brother Eitan Katz, Alex Clare, Chaim David, Danny Zamir, Gad Elbaz, Lazar Lloyd, Rav Moshe Avban, Nachum Siegel, Naftali Kalfa, Pei Dalad, Tamir Goodman, Yehuda Katz, Yitzchak Atias, the band Zusha, Yosef Karduner, and I feel like fireballs should be coming out of my mouth right now as I'm saying all these names, and a few other very special guests that I can't really announce who they are because due to other productions, sometimes you just gotta keep the names as a last second surprise.
And anyone that wants to sponsor one of these evenings, because this is basically, you know, everyone's doing this just mamish because they want to be together.
So tavo aleichem abracha, whoever would like to help sponsoring with these events.
The truth is, Reb Shlomo is not credited for this so much because it became very popular later, years after he recorded it, because Tveikis, the beautiful, soulful Tveikis, they had recorded this song.
Ve'yismechu becha Yisrael Ve'yismechu becha Yisrael Ve'yismechu becha becha Yisrael Mekant sheishmecha Ve'yismechu becha Yisrael Ve'yismechu becha Yisrael Ay mi'yismechu becha Yisrael, be'yismechu becha Yisrael,
