https://nachumsegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/whitneytilsonnjmintheam06172025.mp3Nachum welcomed NYC Mayoral Candidate Whitney Tilson to this morning’s JM in the AM in advance of next week’s Democratic Primary to discuss the Mayoral race and Whitney’s positions on the issues that are facing the citizens of New York City. Nachum and Whitney urge everyone to get out and vote on Primary Day (6/24) or during early voting going on now.
From the Whitney for Mayor site:
Let me summarize my campaign: if you love this city, are worried it’s headed in the wrong direction and you’re looking for new leadership, I am the only change candidate in the Democratic primary. I’m the only one who’s not a career politician, and who has a business background. I’m going to root out widespread corruption and manage this city a lot better.
I’m a lifelong, hard-core Democrat. I grew up in Tanzania and Nicaragua, the child of teachers who met and married in the Peace Corps. Throughout my life I’ve been tackling big problems, fighting injustice and helping people who are hurting.
35 years ago, my first job out of college was helping start Teach for America right here in New York City. Five years ago, when we were the epicenter of the global pandemic and 800 New Yorkers were dying every day, I didn’t flee the city – I volunteered 12 hours a day for months helping to build and operate the field hospital in Central Park. And as recently as last September, I was on the front lines in Ukraine, dodging Russian drones, delivering aid to soldiers fighting for their country’s freedom.
Susan and I raised our three daughters in New York City, and they’re now building their lives here. But this happy story of a healthy city in which the next generation stays and thrives is becoming increasingly rare, as long-time working class New Yorkers are leaving at an alarming rate.

https://nachumsegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Sports-Update-6-17-25.mp3Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum,
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, Softball is “Heat”ing up, and hockey in the spring? We have all the results from the 2025 Martin Weiselberg Memorial Hockey Tournament. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
It’s a great time to be a Hillel Heat Softball player. Hillel has seen all 3 squads, girls varsity, boys varsity and boys JV all make their respective finals. The Lady Heat, have already been crowned Queens of diamonds, as the West 3rd seed Heat followed up a stunning 3-1 win over defending champions Ma’ayanot with an 8-4 double-up of West 2nd seed Na’aleh in the finals. The win marks the schools first Softball championship since 2019. Boys Varsity will vie for the crown as the last two champions face off when the Heat meet up with Netzach HaTorah, the Knights 4-3 winners over YDE in their semifinal. Last year the 2 teams met up in the semifinal where Netzach put on a 10-3 drubbing upending Hillel en route to their championship victory. Finally, the JV defending champs will be at it again when they play against Magen David. Magen David took a 4-1 win over YDE while Hillel upended East top seed HAFTR.
Speaking of HAFTR, Cedarhurst once again played host to the Martin Weiselberg Memorial Hockey Tournament. The 2025 version, the 17th tournament saw 8 middle school teams compete this past Sunday for the last hurrah for hockey in the 2024-2025 school year. Interesting results pock-marked the day, as the first session of round-robin games saw 3 shutouts, with Noam, HALB, and HAFTR blanking Har Torah, Moriah and JEC, and Yavneh had a shutout going until the last few minutes of the 3rd, but ultimately held on to defeat HANC 3-2. In the afternoon session, craziness erupted as Har Torah took a shootout win over Moriah while Noam took the A division with a win over HALB and HANC defeated JEC while HAFTR shut out Yavneh 1-0 to wrap up the B” Division, with each division having teams tied for the second playoff spot, the tiebreak came down to two shootouts. For the “A” Division, Har Torah, who did not make their league playoffs this season outlasted NY league regular season champion HALB to oust the Lions 2-1. And in the “B” Division, it took 10 rounds, but in the end, HANC would outlast NJ regular season champion Yavneh to advance. In the semifinals, Noam took their second win over Har Torah on the day 3-0, while, in a rematch of the NY league semifinals, a similar result, as HAFTR came back to upend HANC 3-2, setting up the ever-popular battle of the two league champions to vie for the title. As was the case in the New York league championship between HAFTR and HALB, HAFTR’s speed and grinding offense went to work and struck in the first on a goal by Alex Scharaga. The goal would stand up on its own as Evan Ellenberg held down the fort in net, but Sammy Fuchs would add a marker for HAFTR late in the third to put the game away and clinch the host Hawks their first tournament crown. The Hawks’ Mark Davidman took home MVP honors with a 4-goal, 3-assist day. We continue on our fundraising path to reach $10,000 for Hatzolah. To contribute or to watch a replay of all of Sunday’s action, feel free to go to our website at www.mwtournament.com,
Next week, the finale for the 2024-2025 school year.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below the tournament flier.
Thanks Nachum,
It’s a two-act Tuesday for me here on JM in the AM, which fits the theme of the day pretty well, it seems. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, repeats, three-peats and…5-peats? All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start out in Boys Volleyball where the championship streak continues for the Ramaz Rams. In a battle of 2nd seeds, the West #2 Ramaz seed defeated East #2 North Shore 3 sets to 1 to capture their 5th straight crown, a streak that lasts all the way back to 2018 and is currently the longest in Yeshiva sports. Not far behind them, though, are the Girls Hockey Frisch Cougars who now stand tied for the longest active Girls championship streak with HANC Volleyball as Frisch notched their 3rd straig championship, taking out Ramaz for the 2nd year in a row, with a 2-1 win. Scoreless into the 3rd, Gaby Hoffer put Frisch on the board 30 seconds into the final frame. Ramaz would tie it up on a Livy Zwillinger shot a few minutes later, but with just over a minute to go, Gabriella Butler sealed the deal for the Cougars locking down the crown.
Moving over to Soccer where new blood raised banners for the most part. Frisch took home their first Boys Varsity Soccer trophy since 2022, capping off a perfect season, defeating SAR 9-6. SAR would find themselves on the losing end of three soccer finals, unfortunately, as the boys JV championship went to Heschel by a 10-6 margin, and the JV Girls fell 6-4 to Frisch, the only repeat champion on the pitch. Frisch would sweep the Girls Soccer session as their varsity squad took out East top seed SKA 5-1 to round out the Spring Indoor seasons.
This leaves only the diamond sports on the docket. Boys Varsity Softball has half of its finals determined as Hillel knocked off two East opponents, a 2-1 extra-inning affair over MAY and an 11-4 drubbing of DRS in the semifinals. The Heat will now await the winner of the other semifinal between YDE and defending champion Netzach HaTorah, each taking 9-1 wins over Heichel HaTorah and Darchai Torah, respectively. And in Baseball, Frisch continues their run for a 4th straight championship, advancing in the first all-West semifinal, defeating MTA 1-0. They’ll await the winner of fellow West squads SAR and TABC to determine their final opponent.
Want more sports talk today? Tune in about an hour from now when I return to chat with Nachum about the 2025 Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament.

Thanks Nachum,
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, a trio of Frisch Cougar squads have punched their tickets to the finals after Route-4 Rivalry match-ups, but wont find out their opponent until this week. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start out in Girls Hockey, where Frisch will be defending their crown following a narrow 1-0 win over Route-4 Rival Ma’ayanot. They will await the winner of this Sunday’s contest between East champion HAFTR and Ramaz. The two met last year in the semifinals, which resulted in a thrilling overtime battle ultimately won by the Rams. The Girls Soccer squad finds themselves in the same situation, having, knocked off the Rapids 4-0, ensuring that there will be new “Queens” of the court this year, whether it be Frisch, or the winner of the Kushner-SKA matchup next Wednesday and the Boys Soccer top seed Cougars will also be in the same boat having trounced TABC 10-3 and will await the winner of the all-west battle between SAR and Kushner this coming Thursday night. Quickly recapping JV, the girls Cougar squad will not get their Route-4 Rivalry final after Ma’ayanot fell to SAR 14-12. The Cougars, the top seed, will host the Sting once the finals are scheduled. Not all was positive in Cougar-land this week, though, as the boys’ JV squad fell short of the finals, losing to West top seed Heschel 15-10. The Heat will await the winner of next Wednesday’s contest between HAFTR and SAR.
Heading back to the diamond sports, in Boys Softball, defending champion Netzach Hatorah put the finishing touches on their late surge back to the top of the East, shutting out Nishmas 10-0. They join YDE and Hillel, the Central and West division champions, all three at 7-1. Behind them at 6-2 are DRS, Shaare Torah and Heichel Hatorah, with Darchai Torah and MAY at 5-3 wrapping up the final wildcard spots for the postseason.
Finally, in Baseball, the West has finished their slate with Frisch, SAR and MTA all locking up automatic playoff slots. Kushner and TABC currently sit at 4-4 and await the results of the East where DRS or Flatbush may throw a wrench into the post-season plans.
The website for the 18th annual Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament is almost ready for the public. You’ll be able to view all of the participants for the event on June 15th in HAFTR, as well as the schedule of games, our event sponsors and purchase tickets to our amazing raffle, all to raise $10,000 for Hatzolah.

Nachum interviewed Moshe Davis, the first Executive Director of NYC Mayor Eric Adams’ newly established Office to Combat Antisemitism, about his important new post to help the Jewish community of New York City.
You can read part of the press release below:
(Above Photo Credit: Courtesy of NYC Mayor’s Office.)
NEW YORK – New York City Mayor Eric Adams today established the Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism, a mayoral office dedicated to fighting antisemitism in all forms and keeping New Yorkers safe. Amidst an unprecedented rise in antisemitism in New York City and across the entire country, Mayor Adams’ new office will be the first office of its kind established in a major city across the nation. Last year, the New York City Police Department (NYPD) reported that 54 percent of all hate crimes in New York City were against Jewish New Yorkers; during the first quarter of 2025, that number rose to 62 percent, demonstrating the urgent need for this office.
This new mayoral office will immediately establish an inter-agency taskforce dedicated to fighting antisemitism in all its forms, including by monitoring court cases and outcomes at all levels of the justice system, liaising with the New York City Law Department on appropriate cases to bring or join, advising on executive orders to issue and legislation to propose to address antisemitism, and working across agencies to ensure New Yorkers feel protected against antisemitism and address incidents of antisemitism. The office will work to ensure city-funded entities and city agencies do not permit different forms of antisemitism. Finally, to lead the office, Mayor Adams appointed Moshe Davis as the first executive director of the Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism. As its first action, Executive Director Davis will form a commission of Jewish leaders from across New York City to oversee and advise on the office’s work.
“Since day one, our administration made a commitment to all New Yorkers to keep them safe and protect against hate in all forms. As we continue to see the rising tide of antisemitism here at home, and across the country, this moment calls for decisive action,” said Mayor Adams. “The Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism will be the first of its kind in a major city across the nation, and will tackle antisemitism in all of its forms, working across city agencies to ensure Jewish New Yorkers are protected and can thrive here in the five boroughs. Antisemitism is an attack not only on Jewish New Yorkers, but on the very idea of New York City as a place where people from all backgrounds can live together. Moshe Davis is a tireless advocate on behalf of Jewish New Yorkers, and he is exactly the right person to lead and build this office. I’m grateful to Moshe for stepping up to lead on this important issue.”
“The rise in antisemitism in our city, in our country, and around the world is both alarming and intolerable,” said First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro. “Today, Mayor Adams is taking a stand — that in the city with the largest Jewish population in the world — antisemitism is unacceptable and we have to do more to address it. So, New York City will lead the way as the first major city in America to establish an office dedicated solely to combatting antisemitism.”
“Combating antisemitism requires a sledgehammer approach: coordinated, unapologetic, and immediate.” said Executive Director Moshe Davis. “Mayor Adams has been a modern-day Maccabee, standing up for the Jewish community, and, with the establishment of this office, he is strengthening his resolve to ensure Jewish New Yorkers thrive in our city. I look forward to working closely with Mayor Eric Adams and First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro to continue our forceful response against anti-Jewish hate and discrimination.”

Nachum welcomed Stephen Savitsky to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss his new Feldheim Publishers release, “Kan Tzipor 2, Life’s Special Moments: Inspiring stories on seizing opportunities to do Chessed.”
From Feldheim.com:
Believe it or not, Hashem might present you with your greatest opportunities to do acts of chessed when you are least prepared. Will you be ready to seize Life’s Special Moments before they are lost forever?
This book is a collection of true, riveting short stories about how people from all walks of life, at different times and in different locations, reacted to such “magic moments” of opportunity to do chessed in the most unexpected places — in a large Palestinian neighborhood south of the outer walls of Jerusalem’s Old City, in a German prisoner-of-war camp, at a wedding, on the banks of a Polish river, on a snowbound highway, and in many other venues.
This life-changing book makes us ask, in every situation: “Why did Hashem put me in this very place at this very time? What chessed does Hashem expect me to do at this exact moment?” These stories train us to become what the author calls an “Observant Jew,” constantly on the alert for magic moments of opportunity to do chessed.
We learn this concept from the mitzvah regarding a bird’s nest (kan tzipor), popularly known as shilu’ach ha-kan. The mitzvah of shooing away the mother bird before taking her eggs or nestlings cannot be orchestrated but happens “Ki yikarei kan tzipor lefanecha ba-derech” (Devarim 22:6) — unexpectedly, when we go about our normal daily activities — and it earns us blessings and long life.
This second collection of such stories has been eagerly awaited by those who read his first book and will delight new readers as well. So treat yourself to a great read, be inspired to seize your own kan tzipor moments, and you too will look forward to incredible blessings.
And if you missed Mr. Savitsky’s first book of “seize the moment” tales, titled Kan Tzipor, read that one, too! The acts of chessed that ensue might spark a national movement of good deeds in whose merit our nation will finally be redeemed.
“Kan Tzipor quickly became a family favorite of ours, as its inspiring and very relatable stories sensitize us to the constant stream of opportunities that we are all given to seize a moment and make a lasting difference. The contagious love of life and drive for kiddush HaShem that are characteristic of Steve Savitsky jump off every page.”
Rabbi Moshe Hauer, Executive Vice President The Orthodox Union

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below the tournament flier.
Thanks Nachum,
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, it’s “Final 4”s all around the indoor sports. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
The indoor sports are all at the semifinal stage and we’ll start out in Boys Volleyball where the most decorated team will match up with the hottest team of 2025. The Ramaz Rams, looking to head back to another final will take on undefeated Solomon Schechter following a straight set victory over Frisch. On the other end, 7-1 North Shore advance to take on West champion SAR following their own sweep of TABC, thus ensuring that the Volleyball crown will reside in New York this year.
Moving over to Girls Hockey where two close contests resulted in home teams advancing, but not without some nailbiting. In the 4-5 contest, Ma’ayanot outlasted SAR 1-0 and will advance to play in their version of the Route-4 rivalry with Frisch. The teams kicked off the season with Frisch taking a 3-1 victory as both teams look to punch their ticket to the finals where they will play either HAFTR or Ramaz. The Rams were able to overcome a challenge from 6th seed Kushner with a 3-1 win and will return to HAFTR where they battled in an epic overtime showdown last year.
In Boys Soccer, shocking results from the first round have flipped the semifinals on its head. West #1 Frisch took care of business against Flatbush but will face fellow West competitor TABC who knocked off East 2nd seed North Shore 7-3. However, sheer bedlam on the other side of the bracket, starting out with West #4 Kushner upsetting East top seed DRS 7-6. They will travel to SAR, as the Sting emerged victorious in a scoring slugfest, 20-10 over Westchester. That game is scheduled for May 29th in SAR. In their sole meeting this year, in Kushner, the Sting outlasted the defending champions 11-10.
In Girls Varsity Soccer, East top seed SKA advanced with a thrashing of SAR and will matchup with West #2 seed Kushner who barely eked out a 5-4 win over Central. On the other end, West top seed Frisch shut out HAFTR 7-0 and defending champion Ma’ayanot doubled up North Shore 4-2 and, like their hockey sisters, will engage Frisch in a Route-4 Rivalry, where the two teams met only 3 weeks ago with Frisch barely escaping with a 5-4 overtime victory.
Help your favorite school win the Contributor’s Cup at the 18th annual Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament on June 15th in HAFTR. HAFTR, HALB, HANC, Har Torah, Noam, Yavneh, Moriah and JEC will vie for the 2025 award, given out to the school that raises the most money for in our goal of $10,000 for Hatzolah.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below the tournament flier.
Thanks Nachum,
Mid-May means that Spring Indoor sports are now ready for the postseason. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, We’ll set you up with all the matchups in hockey, volleyball and soccer. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start out in Girls Hockey where the last few playoffs spots came down to the last day. Last Tuesday night saw Ramaz, Ma’ayanot and SAR all clinch playoff berths with a 3-2 Rams win in overtime over the Rapids and a 4-2 SAR win over Heschel. The results meant that the final spot in the playoff would come down to this past Thursday where HAFTR would put a stamp on their Eastern Conference regular season crown with a 2-1 overtime win over Heschel, to eliminate Heschel and give Kushner the final spot. As a result the playoffs look like this: Frisch, who finished off their regular season undefeated after a 4-0 win over HANC will be the top seed, HAFTR the 2. Both will get a bye and await the winners of 3rd seed Ramaz against 6th seed Kushner and 4th seed Ma’ayanot against #5 SAR.
Moving over to Boys Volleyball which also saw the last seed come down to the very last game and even more, the very last set. HAFTR and Frisch squared off, each coming off opposite results last Tuesday, Frisch a sweep over Kushner and HAFTR a 5-set loss to undefeated Solomon Schechter with the 6th and final playoff berth on the line. Frisch would take the 1st and 3rd sets while HAFTR would take the 2nd and 4th sets to set up a winner-take-all fifth set in which the Cougars emerged victorious. As a result, the playoffs will see SSLI as the top seed, earning a bye with #2 SAR. North Shore, the 3 seed will host #6 TABC and Frisch’s reward for their troubles, a date with #4 Ramaz.
In Boys Varsity Soccer, DRS and Frisch both finished off perfect seasons knocking off the 2nd place teams in their respective divisions in quite opposite fashion. The Wildcats secured the East with a 15-3 trouncing of North Shore while Frisch had to sweat out a 14-13 classic against SAR to claim the West. The results set the playoff bracket as follows: East #1 DRS will host West #4 Kushner with the winner to play the winner of West #2 SAR and East #3 Westchester. On the other side, Frisch will host East #4 Flatbush while North Shore will host West #3 TABC. In Girls Varsity Soccer, Frisch blanked Ma’ayanot to finish undefeated atop the West and meet up with HAFTR in the first round of the playoffs. The winner will meet the winner of Ma’ayanot’s battle with East #2 North Shore. At the other end of the bracket, SKA will grab the East #1 seed and a matchup with West #4 SAR, with the winner to square off with either Kushner or Central.
The teams for the 18th annual Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament on June 15th in HAFTR have been locked down. This year, HAFTR, HALB, HANC, Har Torah, Noam, Yavneh, Moriah and JEC will vie for the 2025 crown and aim to help the tournament reach its goal of raising $10,000 for Hatzolah.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below the event flier.
Thanks Nachum,
We are in the deciding weeks of the Spring sport regular seasons, with playoffs on the horizon. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, SKA and Frisch own Girls Varsity Soccer’s top seeds, while the Boys will see both of their division crowns up for grabs this week, and Solomon Schechter takes the East by Storm in Boys Volleyball. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start off with Boys Varsity Soccer where both divisions will come down to one game this week. We’ll start out West where tomorrow night will see two 7-0 teams Frisch and SAR do battle in SAR. It’ll be Frisch’s third game already in the month, having dominated Kushner last Thursday and TABC last night. Meanwhile, out East, DRS and North Shore will square off Thursday night. The Wildcats are currently 6-0 with a game against YDE tonight, meanwhile North Shore is not far off, having played Flatbush last night. All four teams know what home court advantage will mean in a deep playoff run and want to avoid having to go on the road with a ticket to the finals on the line. In other action, TABC still took two wins on the week, taking one-goal contests over Kushner and Ramaz, and Westchester cemented their playoff berth with two wins over Rambam and HANC.
In Girls Varsity Soccer, no such drama as both divisions have already been decided. In the East, SKA has had the top seed locked up with North Shore and Central behind them and HAFTR and HANC fighting for the final playoff spot. Out West, Ma’ayanot’s 7-6 overtime win over Kushner on Sunday ensures that Frisch has the top seed locked up even before they play their 8th and final game against the Rapids tonight. The remainder of the division itself has been determined as well as Kushner will take the 2, Maa’yanot the 3 and SAR the 4.
Moving over to Girls Softball where HAFTR and HANC are locked in a battle with each other with only a handful of games standing between their matchup that will likely determine the division. The Hawks are 5-0 and will face North Shore tonight and Flatbush next Monday before their contest with HANC next Tuesday. HANC at 5-0-1 will square off with Shulamith on Friday, but all parties expect next Tuesday night to determine the East. Out West, Ma’ayanot at 5-0 will face the only other undefeated West team, Na’aleh, who is only just now starting their season, currently at 1-0, while hoping for a slip-up is 4-1 Hillel.
Also, Solomon Schechter has wrapped up the East crown in Boys Volleyball taking a straight set win over Magen David to improve to 7-0. The Storm have dropped only 3 sets in the 7 games that they’ve played so far.
Finally preparations are moving along for the 18th annual Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament on June 15th in HAFTR with its goal of raising $10,000 for Hatzolah. We are just days away from announcing our amazing raffle prizes and are looking for event sponsors to help us reach our goal. Anyone interested in sponsoring can reach out to us at MWTournament@gmail.com.

Nachum welcomed Chaim Rutenberg, founder of Beef Up Our Boys, back to JM in the AM this morning to discuss how his incredible team continues to work tirelessly to get beef jerky to our IDF soldiers on the front line against Hamas. Chaim explained how his team has been increasing their efforts in advance of another IDF reserve deployment and how they could really use all of our help to continue their important work. Visit the Beef Up Our Boys campaign page HERE.
You can read their story below:
After the October 7th Massacre, all of our Army Reservists were mobilized. We began receiving phone calls from our boys on the front line to send them food, as they were getting sick of tuna. We put together a care package which happened to contain a few packages of beef jerky. Subsequently, we received a call to “SEND MORE BEEF JERKY” as it is the perfect food for the boys on the front lines.
We began working with a couple of local Chefs who had been producing beef jerky in small quantities, and within days we were flooded with calls to send even more. What began as a small family support group, quickly grew into a huge neighborhood campaign within
weeks.
Through the tireless efforts of our chefs and over 140 volunteers, we have already distributed beef jerky meals to over 25,000 IDF soldiers and Zaka members since the beginning of the operation “Iron Sword.”
Our beef jerky is a game changer for those putting their lives on the line to protect the Land of Israel, particularly in remote locations of the country, such as Gaza, and the Northern Border.
“Beef Up Our Boys” jerky goes beyond sustenance. Each lightweight bag of protein-rich meat readily fits into a soldier’s or Zaka member’s clothing and includes heartfelt messages and handwritten notes that embody the spirit of the Jewish people. We’ve even included the correct blessing on every bag, as a gentle reminder that EVERYTHING comes from Hashem.
The phones at “Beef Up Our Boys” literally ring off the hook with requests for more beef jerky. By tirelessly working for the welfare of our fighters, we daily produce and distribute about 1,000 bags of beef jerky. With word quickly spreading about the quality and need of our product, we not only continuously receive first-time requests but also returnees asking for more. It is now clear to all who have received our beef jerky that it profoundly helps those serving and protecting Eretz Yisroel with their strength and concentration while in the field.
Beef jerky is not just a “nice treat” (though it is), but also a game changer for Israel’s protectors. This campaign runs exclusively on donations to BeefUpOurBoys.com. Please help improve the lives and health of our dear IDF soldiers and Zaka members by donating generously.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum,
With Pesach break over, the Spring seasons are winding their way down toward the playoffs. Straight ahead on Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, Varsity Girls Hockey sees a 36 hour shakeup out West, Division leaders collide this coming weekend in Boys Varsity Softball and the longest current win streak in Yeshiva League boys sports is no more. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start off today’s update with a Jeopardy question. The category: Boys Volleyball, Answer: June 12, 2022. The correct question: When was the last time that the Ramaz Rams suffered a loss? Or…it was the correct answer until this past Sunday. The Rams entered their contest with the SAR Sting riding a 24 game winning streak. In the majority of those contests, Ramaz was the recipient of several sweep victories. On this day, the tables would turn and the Sting would sweep Ramaz 21 to 12, 14 and ultimately 18 to put an end to the longest active winning streak in Boys sports. SAR now sits atop the West at 5-1 with Ramaz behind them at 4-1. Some added insight on that last Ramaz loss, it was to the same SAR Sting in the 2022 semifinals. So for those curious, the last time that Ramaz lost a regular season contest? Pre-covid.
In Boys Softball, DRS made a statement this past Friday dominating Nishmas HaTorah in both contests to improve to 4-1 and drop Nishmas to 3-3. The Wildcats will gear up to face their biggest challenge so far when they meet May this coming Friday. May sits at 2-0 and will start the heart of their schedule with either a win that could propel them toward a division crown, or give DRS a heads-up in that race. Out West, Hillel stays undefeated drubbing Frisch this past Sunday to improve to 4-0. They’ll square off with Shaare Torah tomorrow night, but the real contest for them will be this coming Sunday when they host Central division leading YDE, also at 4-0.
In Girls hockey, a mad 36 hour stretch saw quite a few changes in the top 6 slots. Sunday saw the Frisch Cougars extend their lead in the West with a 5-1 win over Heschel who entered the day in the 2nd slot in the West. Meanwhile, Frisch’s rival Ramaz took a 6-1 victory over SKA to improve to 4-1-0-1 and last night Ma’ayanot shutout East leading HAFTR 2-0. So the West leading Cougars are now a point away from clinching the Top seed in the playoffs and can do so against HAFTR who at 4-1-0-1 look to have the East all but put away themselves. Behind Frisch, Ramaz jumps to 2nd place, Ma’ayanot to 3rd and Heschel drops to 4th, only one point ahead of SAR and 2 ahead of Kushner with all teams still in play for the 4 wildcard spots over the next week.
Finally, we are very proud to announce that the Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament is back and ready to roll with its 18th tournament on June 15th in HAFTR. Middle School teams will do battle in the longest-running hockey tournament in the Yeshiva Leagues while raising money for Hatzolah. Of course this also means the return of the amazing memorabilia raffle, which has seen items signed by present and future hall of famers, including Gordie Howe, Mark Messier and new goal-scoring king Alex Ovechkin. We will announce teams, prizes and schedules over the next few weeks on our website at MWTournament.com.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg

Nachum welcomed author Louie Kemp to this morning’s live broadcast from NBN in Jerusalem to discuss his unique life journey and the book he wrote about his friendship with Bob Dylan, “Dylan & Me: 50 Years of Adventures.”
From the book’s Amazon page:
“‘It was at summer camp in northern Wisconsin in 1953 that I first met Bobby Zimmerman from Hibbing. He was twelve years old and he had a guitar. He would go around telling everybody that he was going to be a rock-and-roll star. I was eleven and I believed him.’ So begins this honest, funny, and deeply affectionate memoir of a friendship that has spanned five decades of wild adventures, soul searching conversation, musical milestones, and enduring comradery. As Bobby Zimmerman became Bob Dylan and Louie Kemp built a successful international business, their lives diverged but their friendship held fast. No matter how much time passed between one adventure and the next, the two “boys from the North Country” picked up where they left off and shared experiences that will surprise and delight Dylan fans and anybody who loves a rollicking-good rock-and-roll memoir.”

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum,
Spring is in full swing and all sports are officially underway. Straight ahead on Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, the defending varsity, softball champs open the season on a run, two championship contenders put on a classic in Boys Varsity Soccer and Solomon Schecter storms to the top of the Volleyball boards. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
One of the many great things about Spring Sports is that we get to start talking about teams that don’t usually get much positive coverage during the Winter Season, and in some cases, no coverage at all. One of the teams that we don’t get to talk about at all is Netzach Hatorah. The Knights, not a winter sport participant, made everyone take note last year with their dominance on the softball diamond, climbing all the way to their first school championship. The 2025 season would start off with more of the same. The Knights took two wins this week, reaching double-digit runs in both contests, defeating DRS 10-8 and Rambam 16-6. The loss, DRS’s first knocked them from the top of the standings board in the East which now sees MAY at 2-0, newcomer Nishmas Hatorah at 3-1 and the Knights in what has arguably become the most competitive division in diamond sports. In other action, Hillel opens up at 2-0 with wins over SAR by a collective 19-0 margin, and YDE has taken charge in the Central, jumping out to 3-0 with wins over each team in their division.
A school that we get to talk about a bit on the hockey end, but a rarity to the positive is Solomon Schechter. The Volleyball Storm are looking to even the field and have done a spectacular job thus far, undefeated ¾ of the way through the season. A day after picking up their 5th win against TABC in a battle of the Storm, SSLI defeated DRS in straight sets to improve to 6-0. The wins give the Storm a 2-game cushion over 4-2 HAFTR and a 3-game cushion over North Shore. Solomon Schechter will have a month break before they face Magen David and HAFTR in their attempt to finish undefeated. A team who knows a thing or two about being undefeated, the Ramaz Rams are on the road to another title defense, now at 4-0 halfway through the year, picking up a dominant win over Kushner this week. They can be joined by SAR who sit at 3-0 but face North Shore tonight.
Moving over to Boys Soccer where we were treated to a possible championship preview and every bit an instant classic. The last two champions, Kushner and SAR squared off and made the most of every opportunity with SAR pulling out an 11-10 win over the defending champions. SAR stays undefeated at 5-0 while Kushner slips to 3-2, with only Frisch, Kushner’s only other loss, separating them in the standings. Frisch took on TABC last night in their last action before the Pesach break. Speaking of Frisch, over in Girls varsity, it’s been all Cougars who took two large wins to improve to 5-0. The Cougars will gear up for the main part of their schedule on the other side of the break where they meet up with defending champion Ma’ayanot, currently in the running at the top of the West at 4-1.
With Pesach up ahead, we will be taking a break until action picks back up. We’ll see you for our next update on April 29th. Chag Sameach everyone.

Nachum welcomed Rav Judah Mischel, Executive Director of Camp HASC and founder of Tzama Nafshi, to this morning’s JM in the AM, in advance of Pesach, to feature “Baderech: Along the Path of Redemption,” Rav Mischel’s new haggadah from Mosaica Press.
From the Mosaica Press website:
Embark on a path of personal and national redemption…The order and process of the Haggadah is ever relevant; its timelessness anchors us and gives voice to both our heartbreak and hope. In tracing our birth and beginning, detailing our development, and revealing our essence and identity, nishmas Yisrael finds its ultimate expression in the Haggadah. Ashreinu, fortunate are we, that our generation iְs the one privileged to manifest its prophecy and promise.
בדרך, Be uplifted in the joyful preparation, holy opportunity, potential, and possibility of the Pesach season.
בדרך, Experience Yiddishkeit in a most alive and vital way, framing Seder night as a time to cultivate emunah and the awareness that we ourselves are leaving Mitzrayim.
בדרך, Open your heart to the power of the Haggadah as a spiritual roadmap toward living your life consciously, in the presence of Hashem.
Replete with powerful stories and illuminating, practical wisdom of the tzaddikim, the Baderech Haggadah is a vital companion for spiritual “travelers” at every stage, yearning to uncover their own path toward freedom, redemption, and a most meaningful Yom Tov!

Nachum welcomed Sherri Mandell, Co-Founder of The Koby Mandell Foundation, to this morning’s broadcast from Nefesh B’Nefesh in Jerusalem to discuss a number of important topics including dealing with trauma, Comedy for Koby, the important work of the foundation and the current fundraiser to support their efforts. Visit the campaign page HERE.
From the foundation website:
The Koby Mandell Foundation helps bereaved mothers, fathers, widows, orphans and siblings to rebuild their lives and create meaning out of suffering.
Rabbi Seth and Sherri Mandell established the Koby Mandell Foundation in 2001 after their 13 year old son Koby Mandell and his friend Yosef Ishran were brutally murdered by terrorists near their home in Israel.
Their personal loss led the Mandells to envision a system of support programs that they hoped would make a real difference in the lives of people who had lost parents, children or siblings through terrorism.
The Mandells took their vision to professional therapists and grief counselors for refinement. The Koby Mandell Foundation soon developed a three-tiered model of support including informal therapeutic programming, recreation/ relaxation programming, and community building /social integration programming.
Today, The Koby Mandell Foundation is the largest provider of emotional support services for the thousands of bereaved Israelis who have lost an immediate family member to terror via multi-faceted therapeutic programs.
These unique programs are focused on teaching the tools necessary for victims of trauma to translate their pain and suffering into positive personal growth, deeper interpersonal relationships, and active community leadership. Most programs are provided free of charge, combining formal, informal, and recreational therapeutic techniques that foster an environment of healing and emotional support.

With concise, eye-opening insights from a wide range of sources, this Haggadah commentary is perfect for sparking lively Torah discussion.
And the stories? Each story connects to a key theme in the commentary and is designed to open hearts and minds and to show the eternal relevance of Torah thought to our daily lives and concerns. Experience a Seder filled with meaning, connection, and inspiration – a “Seder of Stories”!
From the Miracles book page:* Rejoice as 19-year-old Amir, a badly wounded soldier, awakens from a deep coma and puts on tefillin at the bar mitzvah he never had… * Discover the unbelievable backstory of the “beepers” in Lebanon… * Be amazed at Hashem’s hashgachah, which brought together men from Al Jazeera, UNRWA, and the American CIA – leading to the rescue of four hostages…
Through riveting stories and behind-the-scenes reports, Rabbi Nachman Seltzer explores the war that began on October 7th, on what should have been one of the most joyous days of the year. We will discover tears and tragedies, hopes and heroism and military miracles. Above all, we will rejoice, even as we cry, at the profound reawakening of emunah that continues to shape Klal Yisrael.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum,
No fooling folks, it’s April as the Yeshiva League turns the corner into Spring. But first, straight ahead on Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, the Yeshiva League holds court at the 2025 Red Saracheck Tournament. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
From beginning to end, the 2025 Red Saracheck Tournament held an extraordinary amount of suspense, excitement and, of course, upsets. The Granddaddy of all Yeshiva League Basketball took place this weekend at the Max Stern Athletic Center on the campus of Yeshiva University with 21 teams vying for the most prestigious title and for the first time in a long time Yeshiva League teams were in command of the action for the Tier I and Tier II championships…just not the ones that would be believed. The afternoon session on Monday started out with the Tier II championship featuring two highly ranked teams, semifinalist North Shore and league-Champion DRS Wildcats, both teams were relegated to the lower bracket following stunning Thursday upsets, for 3rd seed DRS, it would be the 14th seed Frisch Cougars pulling off the upset on a buzzer-beating three-pointer by Nathan Neufield for Frisch in the 45-44 victory. North Shore would also fall to a Yeshiva League foe, Magen David, who gained the 10th seed by virtue of their play-in win the night before over Flatbush. More on them later. The Wildcats and Lions would rebound with wins Saturday night to advance to the semifinals and narrowly advance to the finals, with DRS needing an overtime miracle buzzer beater three by Joe Aaron to send their game with Hebrew Academy of Montreal to Double OT and then a superb second extra session from Aaron to seal the deal to move on. In the finals, it seemed as if the totality of the last two weeks had finally caught up to the Wildcats. North Shore took a two-point lead with under a minute to go in the first and never trailed the rest of the way, opening up mid-teen leads at several points. DRS would make a charge late, though and would pull within two and with 7 seconds to go, Aaron would go to the line for two shots. Aaron would only make 1 of two shots to trail by one. With the Lions hitting a free throw at the other end, DRS would have one last chance to tie as Aaron burned his way up the court cutting through to the basket, but could not get the running jumper to fall at the buzzer, giving North Shore the 49-47 Tier II victory.
In Tier 1, two more Yeshiva League teams squared off in the unlikeliest of finals. 4th seed TABC busted through Fasman, SAR and top ranked YULA to head back to the main stage at the MSAC where they fell short only a handful of days earlier in the Yeshiva League Championship. Their opponent, the 10th seeded Magen David Warriors. Following their wins over Flatbush and North Shore, the Warriors knocked off #2 Shalhevet 58-51 and #6 Berman by 1 to become one of the lowest seeds to ever advance to the Sarachek finals. The teams would trade runs and keep a close game until midway through the 4th when the league runner up took over and finished off the game on a 17-7 run to take the tier 1 championship for TABC 61-49. Eyal Kinderlehrer saved the best for last, putting up a 24 point, 13 rebound double-double to lead the Storm to their first-ever Saracheck Tournament Championship.
The final winter sport event will take place this coming weekend as the 2025 Rabbi David Beitler Memorial Tournament will take place in HAFTR for Varsity Hockey.
Moving over to Spring Sports, in Girls Hockey, HAFTR has opened up a sizeable lead in the East at 4-0-1, taking a 5-point lead over second place HANC. Meanwhile, in Boys Volleyball, Solomon Schechter took a straight set win over YDE to improve to 4-0. In Boys Soccer, Westchester continues their impressive season, downing Flatbush 12-5 to match DRS at the top of the East with 4 wins and Frisch took a 5-4 win over defending champion Kushner to remain undefeated out West.

Nachum was joined by Rabbi Dr. David Katz, Vice Dean, Professor of Dental Medicine and Director of Halachic Dentistry at Touro College of Dental Medicine, on this morning’s JM in the AM. They discussed a number of dental questions related to the upcoming holiday of Pesach including: 1) Can we kasher our teeth for Pesach? If not, what is the preferred way to clean them? 2) What should be done with removable devices such as crowns, bridges, braces and retainers? 3) Do you need a hechsher on flavored dental floss? Can that be used on Pesach? 4) What about tablets to clean dentures? Can those be used on Pesach without a hechsher? In addition to his work at Touro, Dr. Katz is the author of Kesser Dovid – The Halachic Guide to Dentistry, which provides an in – depth analysis of the wide range of laws pertaining to the practice of Dentistry.

Nachum welcomed Moshe Kinderlehrer, Publisher & Co-Founder of the Jewish Link of New Jersey and Elizabeth Kratz, Associate Publisher/Editor-in-Chief of the Jewish Link of New Jersey, as well as founding Editor of the Jewish Link Wine Guide, to the studio during this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss the 2025 Wine Guide available now.
From the Wine Guide website:
Welcome to the Jewish Link Wine Guide
Looking at the finalized lists this year, we were pleased with the results and found them to be right on target. We know we are doing something right when we have had our five judges returning for five solid years, including Yossie Horwitz, our founding judge and the initial designer of our blind tastings which we still follow, as well as Greg Raykher, Daphna Roth, Yeruchum Rosenberg and Jeff Katz. A special thanks to Yeruchum, who helped move an incredible amount of boxes into our new tasting space across the hall and who took care of many of the technical details I was unable to complete. We are also glad that Tzvi Sabo returned to us for a second year as our wine guide staff assistant, to help catalog the wines, create the blind tastings, execute set-up and clean-up. He did an admirable job. Tzvi is also an excellent photographer, whose services we will hope to hire again for the Wine Guide Grand Tasting next year.
We are also glad to return to focus on our Israeli wine colleagues and friends with that lead article written by Josh London, with an article on the kosher wines of Burgundy written by Yossie Horwitz, another cover story celebrating Ernie Weir of Hagafen’s half-century of vintages, with pieces by Dr. Kenneth Friedman and Gamliel Kronemer about various new wines coming into kosher distribution from Georgia (in Eastern Europe), as well as a piece I wrote about an old kosher South African winery coming back to worldwide distribution. We are also glad to include a piece about Ya’acov Oryah’s special Israeli wines from Gregory Aubrey of KosherWine.com. While their wines were out of stock as our tastings were beginning, we are glad to include a feature on him regardless.
With best wishes for a kosher Pesach,
Elizabeth Kratz

Nachum featured the vital work of the Matzoh Fund with Founder and President Alan Hirsch on this morning’s JM in the AM. Once again, Alan and his team are putting in Herculean efforts to help those in need for Pesach and they could really use all of our support. Below you can read a letter from Alan on the Matzoh Fund site.
Dear Friends of the Bnei Israel Matzoh Fund,
Thanks to you last year was our best year ever. We were able to get to more place and families with more items than ever before. It was a year of great stress, a year of great tragedy. But in the end it was a year of great achdus.
You opened your hearts and your pockets. You understood that the need was greater than ever because of the war.
The greatest percentage of chayalim come from Yehuda and Shomron. The greatest percentage of women left to take care of their families are in Yehuda and Shomron.
We were there for them and we must continue to be there even greater this year, as the war and need continues.
This year we have a much greater battle. The war has left many families with hardships. Husbands and sons are away, many are gone forever.
At war. There are casualties, businesses are very slow because of the war. Inflation is very high. Here comes Pesach. We will need to help these families. We have done it for 30 years; We can’t stop now.
We have been contacted by even more families than usual who are in serious need. They come from yishuvim such as Hebron, Kiryat Arba, Maaleh Amos, Bat Ayin, Metzad, Maale Chaver, Shilo, Elon Moreh, Homesh, Chavat Gilad, Yitzhar, Eli, Tapuach, Itamar, Maale Levana, Karmei Tzur and other remote places in Israel.
While most people do not know where these places are, we have that knowledge and the ability to deliver to every one of these places. Last year we distributed matzoh, wine, grape juice, meat, chicken, olive oil, potatoes, tuna and fruit to most of these families. For many of these families, it made Pesach possible.
We also send a check or food vouchers to every family; this year, we are adding new food items to help these families with their Yom Tov needs.
Every penny that you give is spent on the purchase and distribution of their Pesach needs, with no other overhead what-so-ever.
We are in the midst of ordering wine, matzah, meat, and chicken. We must raise almost $450,000 to cover these costs. In the past years you have been quite generous with your contributions. This year you have to dig deeper.
These families have the highest percentage of soldiers in the country.
WE MUST HELP THEM
Some prices have really gone crazy. Olive oil is up 140 %. Chicken is up almost 20 %. Others are up more than ever. Once again, we need your help. We really value your contribution. Thank you for your help. Best wishes for you and your family for a Chag Kasher Vsameach!
Tizke LeMitzvot!
Alan Hirsch

Nachum hosted Rav Daniel Glatstein to review his Pesach-centric ArtScroll release, “Rav Daniel Glatstein on the Haggadah: Revolutionary Insights into the Haggadah, the Exodus, and the Final Redemption.” The big news is that Rav Glatstein’s haggadah has been translated into Spanish and French so now even more people can enjoy this classic edition on Pesach. Reminder to use promo code Radio when making any purchases at ArtScroll.com. Chag Kasher VeSameach!
From the ArtScroll website:
Rav and founder of Machon Maggid Harakiah in Cedarhurst, NY, Rabbi Daniel Glatstein is one of the contemporary Jewish world’s most popular speakers and respected maggidei shiur. In this unique work, he treats the Haggadah text not as a series of unconnected “vertlach,” but as a living, unified document, mirroring the slavery, miracles, and ultimate liberation in its words and structure.
The Rabbi Daniel Glatstein Haggadah features comprehensive analyses on never before tackled subjects such as, “Who Wrote the Haggadah?”, “What Is The Structure of The Haggadah?”, “How Many Words In the Haggadah?” and many other basic issues that give us a deeper understanding of our beloved Haggadah, and, indeed, of the entire experience of Yetziyas Mitzrayim.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum,
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, a week delayed, the JV Basketball championship receives a fitting ending, we release the schedule for the Saracheck Tournament starting tomorrow night and, we open up the Spring Sports Season. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
The final 2024-2025 Winter sports championship, the JV Basketball final took place this past Sunday as Flatbush and Ramaz, the two division champions squared off at the Max Stern Athletic Center. The Falcons took the lead early and held leads close to and into double-digits until the closing minutes of the third, when Ramaz cut a lead that only 8 minutes earlier was 11 down to 4 at 35-31. Flatbush would try and pull away, but Ed Ash would keep Ramaz in the running and eventually tie the game at 41 with 2:37 left in the 4th quarter. Unfortunately for both teams, the lids would close on the baskets the rest of the fourth would go scoreless and we would go to Overtime still knotted at 41. The first points of the extra session wouldn’t come until around the 3 minute mark when Noah Hiltzig, the overtime hero in the semifinal game against DRS drained a 3 pointer, giving Ramaz a 44-41 lead. Ramaz, though would only hit one more field goal the rest of the way and allow Flatbush to take control in what many would call appropriate fashion. Down 45-43, the ball would find its way to Louie Franco who would drain a three with a minute to go that would give Flatbush a lead it would not relinquish. Franco, clearly playing with a heavy heart following his loss last week, had a career night coming off the bench and sparking the Falcons, reaching double-digits in the first quarter and scoring 5 in the overtime session, including the last two foul shots to push to the final 51-47 score, earning him MVP honors in the Falcons Championship victory.
Action now turns back to varsity with the Saracheck tournament, which we touched on last week. Flatbush and Magen David kick off the action tomorrow night with a play-in game. Other Yeshiva League teams in action will be North Shore taking on the winner of the play-in game on Thursday morning, while SAR takes on Hebrew Academy of Montreal, MTA squares off with Berman, TABC matches up with Fasman and League champion DRS will meet up with Frisch for the mid-afternoon to evening action on Thursday. Macslive will take you through the weekend into semifinal Sunday and Monday Madness as the three tier champions will be crowned.
While that all takes place, the rest of the schools have already turned the corner to Spring sports. DRS finds itself in familiar position this year at the top of the boards in varsity soccer where it’s currently 4-0 and looking to add more hardware. However, they are one of five undefeated teams on the early season. Heschel and Frisch remain undefeated in Girls Hockey as the Cougars look to hang up their third banner in a row. Those are just two of the leagues that we will cover over the next few weeks, including girls soccer, boys volleyball and, of course, our diamond sports, boys and girls softball and boys baseball. All that and more, straight ahead as the 2025 Spring Season kicks into high gear.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg

https://nachumsegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Gorfonjmintheam11132024.mp3Nachum welcomed the amazing Jordan B. Gorfinkel, aka Gorf, cartoonist, musician, writer and producer, to the studio during this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss The Koren Tanakh Graphic Novel – Yona and much more.
From the Koren website:
The future of the Kingdom of Yisrael hangs in the balance.
Yona is tasked with a bewildering mission: persuade Yisrael’s most powerful enemy to repent its evil and save itself from destruction. Aghast at the personal, geopolitical, and theological implications of this divine command, Yona attempts to flee, launching him on a perilous journey as he descends to the darkest depths of Creation — and his own soul.
The creative team of Emmy Award-winning writer David Sacks (The Simpsons) producer Jordan B. Gorfinkel (Batman, Koren Tanakh Graphic Novel: Esther), and Israeli illustrators Larisa Kerzhner and Avi Blyer (Where Is Anne Frank) presents a faithful and visually evocative rendering of this quintessential, dramatic meditation on repentance and forgiveness.
The Koren Tanakh Graphic Novel series presents the unabridged Hebrew biblical text in the classic Koren typeface, alongside graphic novel storytelling that integrates the English translation with sophisticated illustration, bringing the biblical narrative to life and hidden layers of meaning to light. A multi-disciplinary team of world-class artistic talent, drawing on scholarly expertise in Tanakh, Midrash, archaeology, history, and more, spares no effort to render each biblical work with authenticity, delivering a rewarding blend of textual clarity, interpretive depth, and artistic nuance.
Yona is suitable for use on and preparation for Yom Kippur, as well as year-round study, enjoyment, and contemplation.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
Welcome back everyone to another season of the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update! The 2024-2025 season is off and rolling and we’ll break down the first two weeks of November straight ahead. Good Morning, back for yet another yeshiva league season with you, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start out in Varsity Hockey and nothing like a good “Route 4 Rivalry” matchup to kick things off in the early season, unless you’re a Frisch fan. The TABC Storm opened up what they hope is a rebound season, coming off of a defeat in last year’s final with a 5-1 victory over the Cougars, Senior Aiden Rauzman with the hat trick for the Stom. TABC is currently 2-0 and in a tie with Kushner and SAR. The Sting took a key victory last night at home over HANC 3-1 to keep clean in the loss column. Scoreless into the 3rd period the two teams traded quick goals in the period and remained tied until Senior Bennett Burgida put home the game winner for SAR. The early season has not been kind to HANC at the moment, having dropped their 2nd in three nights after a 6-3 loss to DRS on Motzai Shabbos. DRS opened a 4-0 lead and although HANC was able to bring the game to within 1, DRS popped home two goals in the third to improve to 3-0.
In JV Hockey 7 of the 8 teams have kicked off their season. Out West, Frisch and SAR are 3-0 and 2-0, respectively, after knocking off Eastern conference teams. Frisch and HAFTR went to overtime Saturday night in Paramus with Charlie Butler ending the contest for the 3-2 Cougar victory and then continuing with another home win over YDE, and in a statement win, SAR went into DRS last night and doubled-up the home team Wildcats 4-2. The last team to get into the mix this season will be TABC who kick off their season tomorrow night in HAFTR.
Varsity Basketball has some unfamiliar teams at the top in the early goings. The East sees Rambam at 2-0 after home wins over Magen Abraham and Kushner. Their schedule will get a bit tougher, though, starting this week with a Thursday night contest in Flatbush. Out West, MTA is 2-0 after wins over Kushner and JEC. They’ll get to revel in their current position for a bit as West teams have a fairly light schedule over the next week, but the inter-division contests are powerful ones as tonight sees Frisch travel to DRS and HAFTR host SAR and Monday night, Flatbush and TABC will tangle with one team being excused from the ranks of the undefeated.
Finally in JV Basketball, most teams have opened up their season with no team playing more than 2 games. Barkai, DRS and Magen David are all 1-0 in the East, while JEC out West is 2-0 with dominating wins over MTA and Heschel, followed by TABC and Ramaz at 1-0. With 14 contests between tonight and our next update, there should be plenty of movement around the leaderboards.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.

https://nachumsegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/davitmatlowonjmintheam11112024.mp3Nachum hosted David Matlow, Theodor Herzl memorabilia collector and creator of The Herzl Project, on this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss the “All About Herzl” exhibition going on now at The Streicker Cultural Center in NYC. The exhibition began on September 17, 2024 and will run through January 23, 2025.
From the exhibition website:
The centerpiece of ALL ABOUT HERZL will be an exhibition in our Herbert & Eileen Bernard Museum showcasing a wide array of original Herzl documents, ephemera and artifacts. The exhibition includes materials drawn from the collections of the Theodor Herzl Archive at the Central Zionist Archives (CZA) in Israel, which is part of the World Zionist Organization (WZO), YIVO Institute for Jewish Research and from David Matlow – holder of the world’s largest private collection of Herzl memorabilia – the display will lead visitors along Herzl’s extraordinary journey, from his youth as an ardent Germanophile to his experiences with the rising tide of European antisemitism that led him to conclude that Jew-hating would neither be defeated nor cured, leaving the establishment of a Jewish state as the only route to safety.

Nachum welcomed filmmaker, author and human rights activist Rabbi Raphael Shore to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss his latest film and book on the shocking rise of antisemitism.
The film Tragic Awakening: A New Look at the Oldest Hatred details how October 7th has produced a new wave of Jew hatred, one that requires a new understanding of the motives of anti-Semites. Alongside a series of public screenings and discussions to be hosted across the US in the coming months, Tragic Awakening will also be available online.
The film release is accompanied by Rabbi Shore’s first book, Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Jew, inspired by the same thesis that explains that historical and contemporary antisemitism are motivated in large parts by fear of the positive aspects of Jewish identity, rather than classical interpretations that have long sought to explain why people hate Jews.
What distinguishes the film and book from others is not only its surprising and unambiguous answer to the question of “Why The Jews?”, but its profound insights into who the Jews are and why their story matters. Rather than focusing on the negative story of Jew-hatred, it highlights the positive – Jewish strength and resilience.

Nachum hosted Rabbi Reuven Ziegler, Editor of the new Koren/Toby Press release “One Day in October: Forty Heroes, Forty Stories,” on this morning’s JM in the AM October 7th Commemoration to discuss the new book and reflect on October 7th, one year later.
From the Koren/Toby Press site:
Shaylee placed her little finger in her newborn baby’s mouth to keep her quiet. Shlomo sat on the couch and pretended to be asleep. Nasreen removed the laces from her children’s shoes. Mickey demanded that the terrorist keep his promise. Amit comforted the last patient in the clinic. Aner threw seven live grenades out of the public shelter. Emanuel made sure that a fallen soldier’s love letter would reach its destination.
And it all happened on a single day, one day in October. October 7th, 2023, was the most tragic day in Israeli history. Hamas terrorist forces attacked and ravaged the Gaza border area, killing 1200 and taking 250 hostage. Hamas murdered and brutalized young and old, Jew and non-Jew, civilian and soldier. And in response, from every strand of Israeli society, heroes stepped forward to save lives and defend their humanity.
One Day in October introduces us to forty real-life Israeli heroes from that day, in their own words. All forty stories take place within the same twenty-four-hour period, in the same patch of beautiful, broken, blood-soaked land. These heroes are unforgettable, their stories inconceivable. Emerging from the pain and sorrow inflicted on that day, these first-person accounts offer consolation and hope.

From The Simchat Torah Project website:
October 7th was Simchat Torah in Israel. Over 1200 people were murdered and hundreds more were taken hostage. The Jewish people suffered our most horrific day since the Holocaust.
This October will mark the first Simchat Torah since the horrific events of October 7th.
Simchat Torah is a day of joy, celebration, and hakafot- we dance – but Simchat Torah 5785 will also mark the first yahrzeit of the 1200 victims of October 7th. How do we, the Jewish people, respond? On Simchat Torah, will we dance? Should we dance? How do we commemorate this poignant and difficult anniversary?
King Solomon offers us guidance in Kohelet, which we will read on Sukkot, “There is a time for everything under the Heavens…. a time to mourn and a time to dance.” This Simchat Torah, with tears in our eyes, we will dance.
Synagogues around the world will open their Aron HaKodesh on Simchat Torah night and take out several Torah scrolls. One, or more, will be adorned with a new me’il (Torah cover), designed to mark the first yahrzeit of October 7th. This me’il will be identical to the ones which will be created for 1600 synagogues across the world. This beautifully designed me’il will proclaim that this Torah is dedicated in memory of the 1200 souls and the many soldiers and hostages who have since died, Al Kiddush Hashem. Each Torah me’il will feature the name of one of the kedoshim embroidered onto it. Communities around the world will dance with these Torah scrolls – thousands of communities, with hundreds of thousands if not millions of Jews being connected through this project.
The Jewish world will be unified, knowing that across the globe, Jews are dancing with Torah scrolls that collectively link us all with the events of October 7th, and inspire us to realize that “Am Yisrael Chai.”
Synagogues will encourage their members to come and dance with the newly robed scroll, to remember the fallen, by holding their Torah high, so that they can say: “We will not forget what happened on Simchat Torah last year, but we are determined to dispel the darkness with light.”
This project will symbolize the Jewish People’s resilience, our ability to find hope in the face of tragedy.
Over 1600 communities across the globe will unite for Israel and the Jewish people.

Israel’s tech sector shows resilience, but future growth depends on regional stability and responsible government policies, Startup Nation Central reports as October 7 one year mark approaches
TEL AVIV – Startup Nation Central has released its latest report, “One Year of Israeli Innovation in War,” presenting a detailed analysis of the impact of the ongoing conflict following October 7th on Israel’s tech ecosystem. Using data from Finder, Startup Nation Central’s business intelligence platform, and insights from a survey conducted by Startup Nation Central of tech company leaders and investors, the report provides an in-depth examination of the macro and micro-level dynamics shaping Israel’s high-tech sector during this period of adversity.
“Israeli tech has shown incredible resilience in the face of prolonged conflict and mounting challenges. But this resilience cannot be taken for granted,” said Startup Nation Central CEO Avi Hasson. “However,’ The lack of long-term planning – whether in budget policy, research infrastructure, or future growth drivers – creates uncertainty that could undermine our momentum. Now more than ever, the government must act responsibly to ensure the sector continues to thrive, attract investment, and secure the future of our economy.”
“Our report shows that despite the challenges, Israeli tech continues to attract significant investments, raising $7.8 billion even during the conflict. While there is cautious optimism, with 54% of companies expecting growth, the sector is still facing significant hurdles,” said Startup Nation Central VP of Digital Products and Data, Yariv Lotan. “Funding uncertainty remains a major concern, with 49% of companies experiencing some level of investment cancellations. In addition, regional disparities are evident, with nearly 40% of tech companies in northern Israel considering relocation due to the ongoing conflict. The survey also highlights that over 80% of companies have low confidence in the government’s ability to lead recovery efforts. These findings underscore the sector’s potential, but also highlight the critical need for strategic planning to overcome the current obstacles.”

Nachum welcomed Menachem Butler, Editor of “Praying for the Defenders of Our Destiny,” to this morning’s JM in the AM to explore this fascinating new work focused on the Mi Sheberach for IDF Soldiers.
From the book’s Amazon page:
Praying for the Defenders of Our Destiny: The Mi Sheberach for IDF Soldiers, edited by Aviad Hacohen and Menachem Butler and published by The Institute for Jewish Research and Publications, is an anthology that delves deeply into the multifaceted role of the Mi Sheberach for IDF Soldiers within Jewish thought. Beyond its liturgical aspects, the book explores the ideological implications of the Mi Sheberach prayer, reflecting the complex interplay between reliance on military strength and spiritual faith in Israel’s security.
Prepared in response to the October 7th massacre, this volume brings together a diverse collection of over seventy contributions from scholars, rabbis, and thinkers, that investigate the history, composition, and controversies surrounding the prayer, highlighting its evolution and relevance in modern times. These reflections, alongside previously unreleased English translations of key Hebrew articles, offer diverse viewpoints on the continued significance of the Mi Sheberach for IDF Soldiers.
Praying for the Defenders of Our Destiny: The Mi Sheberach for IDF Soldiers not only reinforces unwavering support for the State of Israel and the IDF but also provides moral encouragement to soldiers’ families. It delivers insights from a Jewish religious perspective, emphasizing the critical importance of the State of Israel in contemporary Jewish history and exploring Zionism’s place within Jewish tradition.

Nachum kicked off the 2024 JM in the AM Yankie Meyer Elul Chesed Campaign with Liora Tedgi of Jerusalem’s Ohr Meir & Bracha on this morning’s program. This annual campaign aims to encourage and foster an increase in chesed leading up to the High Holidays. Liora emphasized to Nachum and the listeners how there is a heightened need for Ohr Meir & Bracha’s services in light of the ongoing war and refugee challenges.
Ohr Meir & Bracha was founded in 2002 by Liora Tedgi, a mother of 10 who was injured a number of years ago in a car bomb attack in Jerusalem. Liora set up the organization to respond to the unmet, unrecognized needs of victims of terror and their families. Terror attacks destroy the lives not only of those who perish but also of those who survive. There are hundreds of victims of terror who “fall between the cracks” of the Israeli government’s aid initiatives. They do not receive help because their injuries are deemed insufficient to be recognized as medical disabilities, or because they are still in the process of being assessed for disability (which can take two or more years).

Always remember to use promo code Radio24 when shopping at Artscroll.com.
From the ArtScroll website:
A Compelling Portrait of One of the Greatest and Most Influential of Our Sages
Most of us learned the familiar story as children: Akiva, the illiterate shepherd who became, with his wife’s unswerving support, one of the greatest sages of our history. Now, Avrohom Yom Tov (Abie) Rotenberg shows us how to truly understand the story of R’ Akiva, in all its depth and glory.
Who was this man, whom even Moshe Rabbeinu hailed for his greatness? What did his wife Rachel see in him to make her abandon her wealthy life for one of grinding poverty? How did he find comfort in the ruins after the Churban? And how did a man whose life was so full of turbulent challenges serve as our model of optimism, hope and, above all, emunah?
This is a serious work of Torah scholarship that holds our attention with its absorbing details and often surprising insights. We will discover the many facets of this great sage – and we will be inspired.

From the book’s Amazon page:
When Mayer (née Marty) Belkin fled small-town Georgia for Brooklyn nearly thirty years ago, he thought he’d left his wasted youth behind. Now he’s a Talmud scholar married into one of the greatest rabbinical families in the world – a dirt-poor country boy reinvented in the image of God.
But his mother’s untimely death brings a shocking revelation: Mayer and his ne’er-do-well twin brother David aren’t, in fact, Jewish. Traumatized and spiritually bereft, Mayer’s only recourse is to convert to Judaism. But the earliest date he can get is a week from now. What are two estranged brothers to do in the interim?
So begins the Belkins’ Rumspringa through America’s Deep South with Mom’s ashes in tow, plus two tagalongs: an insightful Instagram influencer named Charlayne Valentine and Popeye, a one-eyed dog. As the crew gets tangled up in a series of increasingly surreal adventures, Mayer grapples with a God who betrayed him and an emotionally withdrawn wife in Brooklyn who has yet to learn her husband is a counterfeit Jew.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/rabbipaysachkrohnonjmintheam07242024.mp3Nachum welcomed renowned author and storyteller Rabbi Paysach Krohn to this morning’s JM in the AM to explore his latest ArtScroll release: “From Sorrow To Celebration: Inspirational Stories and Insights from the Maggid.” Always remember to use promo code RADIO24 when purchasing anything at ArtScroll.com.
From the ArtScroll website:
The Three Weeks. The Nine Days.
Tisha B’Av.
Mourning, tragedy, Churban, destruction.
But then… Tu B’Av.
Comfort, joy, celebration; a festival like no other.
As believing Jews, we know that in the darkest, most painful moments lie the seeds of joy and rebirth.
Still, it takes a genius of optimism and emunah — it takes a Rabbi Paysach Krohn — to show us how to find positivity while never minimizing the pain of the Churban.
In this book — this extraordinary book — he shows us how.
In From Sorrow to Celebration Rabbi Krohn shares compelling divrei Torah and – of course – dozens of poignant and uplifting stories. Stories that open new vistas of Ahavas Hashem, Ahavas HaTorah, and Ahavas Yisrael. Stories showcasing the awesome power of our prayers and our tears, the great opportunities that teshuvah offers us.
We will enrich our understanding of the Three Weeks, the Nine Days, Tishah B’Av and Megillas Eichah.
And then… we move From Sorrow to Celebration, with fascinating sections on the Bais HaMikdash, Ahavas Yisrael, Shabbos Nachamu, Mashiach and Geulah and (mazal tov!) the joyous day of Tu B’Av.
In another unique section, Rabbi Krohn shares brief biographies and riveting stories of gedolim whose yahrzeits fall in the period of the Three Weeks until Tu B’Av, including Rashi, the Arizal, and Rav Elyashiv, adding still another level of inspiration in these sorrow-filled months.
From From Sorrow to Celebration is about the cleansing of our sadness. It’s about the possibility of rebuilding — both the Beis HaMikdash and also ourselves.
It is about the tears… and the laughter that follows those tears.

Remember to us the promo code RADIO when ordering this fascinating new book.
From the Koren/Maggid website:
The Lubavitcher Rebbe’s colossal achievements in the service of world Jewry are well known. From his office in 770 Eastern Parkway, he initiated some of the most successful and innovative programming that the Jewish world has ever seen. What is not so well known is his scholarly prowess and his impressive mastery of the entire range of Torah disciplines. In this book, scholar Yosef Bronstein explores the philosophy and genius of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, zt”l.
Engaging the Essence addresses abstract philosophical issues, such as the nature of the material world and free will, as well as pressing contemporary issues, such as the Rebbe’s approach to the State of Israel and the role of women in our generation. It also investigates the Rebbe’s exceptional perspective on and push for “the true and complete redemption.”

Nachum welcomed Rabbi Shlomo Landau to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss his debut ArtScroll release: “Flashes of Greatness: Stories to Kindle Your Inner Sparks.” Always remember to use promo code radio24 when shopping at ArtScroll.com.
From the ArtScroll website:
The campers had a choice for their major trip. Travel in comfort — and leave 5 boys behind. Or squash into a hot school bus – and include everyone. They chose…greatness.
They are everywhere: little flashes of light illuminating the darkness in the most unexpected places. Flashes of compassion. Of dedication and sacrifice. Of holiness. The flashes of greatness that are created when a Jew makes the right choice — even when that choice is hard.
It was only a small “kabbalah” he took on to enhance his avodas Hashem. And when it became inconvenient, he chose greatness — and saved a life!
Flashes of Greatness is a collection of nearly 100 mesmerizing stories that showcase these extraordinary and inspiring moments, when ordinary individuals become extraordinary, when they light up our world with acts of courage and kindness.
No one, it seemed, could help the struggling almanah. No one, that is, except R’ Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, during the widow’s encounter with…greatness.
As you read these varied and wonderful stories, prepare to be moved. Prepare to be inspired. Prepare to witness the flashes of greatness that reside in every one of us.

Nachum welcomed Zachary Greenberg, staff writer for The Jewish Link and resident of Teaneck, New Jersey, to the program to discuss the launch of the Voices for Israel: Creative Chant Challenge, hosted by The Jewish Link.
Since October 7, there’s been a noticeable rise in antisemitism disguised as anti-Zionism, and the need for impactful pro-Israel chants at rallies has become critical. Too often, despite our good intentions, our voices are overpowered by antagonists, even when we outnumber them. This initiative encourages our community (mainly but not limited to Jewish Link readership where it’s being advertised) to step up and submit creative slogans, helping us build a toolkit of strong, catchy chants that can unify and empower us at future events/rallies.

Thanks Nachum!
Good morning everyone! Today on an abbreviated Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, we wrap up the 2023-2024 sports season. I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Our last two finals bring us to the diamond as the two varsity Softball championships wrap up our coverage. The Girl Varsity championship took place last Monday night with the West #2 and #3 seeds Bruriah and Ma’ayanot meeting up. The last time these two teams met, during the regular season, Bruriah cruised to a 6-0 victory. This contest could not be more different as scoring came in waves, with 16 runs crossing the plate, 9 of them, this time belonging to the victor, the Ma’ayanot Rapids. For Ma’ayanot, the 9-7 win adds to a legacy with a 2nd banner in the last three years and their 5th since 2015.
Contrast that to the Boys final, where two Long Island schools did battle and where runs came at a distinct premium. Darchai Torah and Netzach Hatorah were virtually tied at the hip all year, both finishing at 7-1, each taking a victory over the other by one run, both games on the same day 6 weeks ago. This game would have the same flair, but the final would be a larger result than the other 2 and distinctly one-sided. A year after the junior class took home the JV Softball championship with a shutout, Netzach HaTorah can add its first varsity softball championship to the rafters with a 3-0 victory.
And, while we did not cover it in-depth this year, congratulations to DRS and Frisch on winning the boys and girls Tennis championships respectively. For Frisch, it’s a 3-straight championship with a core group that has not tallied a loss since before Covid a stretch of 28 in a row.
On that note, this brings to a close the 2024 Spring season and the 2023-2024 school and sports year. A Yasher Koach to all the boys and girls that participated this year and a Mazal Tov to all of the graduates. Once again, a heartfelt thank you to Nachum and the JM in the AM and Nachum Segal Network family for helping bring to light the amazing efforts and accomplishments of all participants and giving a platform to share them with everyone. September is right around the corner and we cannot wait to join everyone in welcoming the 2024-2025 school year.
For all of us at JM in the AM, this has been the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg. Have a great summer!

Thanks Nachum!
Before we begin, I want to take a moment to wish a happy 7th wedding anniversary to my loving and amazing wife Amanda.
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, we finish up the indoor sports with a repeat champion then head out to the baseball field a for a three-peat champion, each by the same two schools, and two other schools spoil each other’s repeat bids in Softball. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
The final game of the indoor sports season for us to report sees the SAR Sting repeating as the 2024 Boys JV Soccer champions. SAR went through the season and post season undefeated, knocking off Frisch 13-8 behind 6 goals by Noam Davies. The offensive output in the final was typical Sting, as the team went through their 10 games averaging just a little over 14 goals on their way to the crown.
Moving outdoors where things were a bit better for the Frisch Cougars who complete the 3-peat in Baseball, defeating the SAR Sting 4-1. The Cougars 3rd final in a row came in major part to a dominant playoffs by Akiva Rotenberg. The Junior pitcher posted 3 wins, giving up only 3 runs while striking out 28 opponents in the knockout stages.
Moving over to JV Softball where the Hillel Heat blanked the Netzach Hatorah Knights, 4-0. The win ends Netzach Hatorah’s bid at a repeat, and finishes off a perfect season for the Heat, while also avenging Netzach’s 2-0 win over Hillel in last year’s semifinal. Ironically, the two schools would then meet in a semifinal on the varsity stage where Netzach would return the favor, and end the Heat’s chances at a repeat in a dominant 10-3 result. Netzach will now move on to face fellow Eastern Conference rival Darchai in the finals. Both schools finished the season 7-1, with each taking a 1- run loss to the other over the year. The rubber match will come with the last championship of the 2024 Spring Season on the line.
Next week: the final sports update of the 2023-2024 school year.

Thanks Nachum!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, we near the end of the 2024 Spring sports year, and have crowned most of our indoor champions in the process. Boys Volleyball, Girls Hockey and Boys and Girls Varsity Soccer have reached their conclusion and the remaining sports are right behind them. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start out in Soccer where the Ma’ayanot Rapids pull off the upset and stifle the dominance of the defending champions. The Rapids edged Frisch 2-1 not only ending Frisch’s chance at a repeat, but also puts an end to Frisch’s 21 game win streak, with their last loss coming almost 2 years to the day in the 2022 semifinals. The win marks Ma’ayanot’s first championship since 2019 and their 4th in the last 10 years.
Moving over to Boys Soccer where Kushner Cobras are kings for the first time in 7 years following their 3-1 victory over Ramaz. The battle between the 3rd and 4th seeds in the West proved to be a classic but Ramaz could not muster enough offense to keep pace with the champions.
We now leave the world of surprises and experience a bit of Déjà vu. A year ago, the Frisch Cougars found themselves locked in a heated overtime battle with SAR when Emma Hornblass tallied the championship winner to put Frisch back on top of the hockey world 1-0. This year, it would be Ramaz and it wouldn’t take overtime, but a second period goal by Hornblass would prove to be the difference in a 1-0 final while Sophomore goalie Lily Acton posted her 8th straight shutout periods in the finals, capping off a season where the Cougars yielded only three goals. Frisch has now gone back to back for the first time since 2014-2016 in a playoff season where all games in the knockout rounds were determined by a single goal.
While the Ramaz girls could not break through, the Rams varsity volleyball squad put a capper on their perfect season sweeping SAR in straight sets by identical scores of 21-13. The crown puts a no-doubter on likely the most dominant performance in boys volleyball history, with the Rams demolishing opponents 27 sets to 1 over the course of the season. Their only dropped set, the third set of their regular season contest with the Sting. Ramaz wins their 2nd in a row their 3rd in 4 finals and account for more than half the championships in the last decade.
Heading outdoors, Darchai has punched their ticket back to the varsity softball championships. The 2021 winners defeated YDE to return to the finals where they await the winner of this Sunday’s contest between Netzach Hatorah and defending champion Hillel. In Girls Varsity, there will be a new champion as the Bruriah Lightning shut out the defending champion Frisch Cougars 1-0 to advance to the championship. They’ll face Ma’ayanot who outlasted Hillel 13-9.
Finally, it’ll be the top 2 teams in the West fighting for the title in Baseball. Top seed Frisch doubled up Heschel 4-2 while SAR drilled Kushner 8-0. This will set up a repeat of last year’s final and give Frisch its chance at winning its third banner in a row.

Thanks Nachum!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, Ramaz looks to Ram through several finals, upsets litter the knockout stages in all sports and mostly familiar names find their way through on the diamond. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We open serve on today’s update with Boys Volleyball, where we have an upset on the way to the finals. Two days after knocking off HAFTR in straight sets in the quarterfinals, the SAR Sting upend the East top seed Flatbush Falcons in straight sets, 21-13, 14 and 16 to advance to their third straight final where they will meet up with the winner of TABC and the season’s freight train, Ramaz in their contest on Wednesday night. Should Ramaz win, it would set up a rematch of last year’s final and would also pit Ramaz against the last team to hand them a defeat.
Moving over to soccer where the upsets continue. Within a matter of minutes of each other on Sunday night, Bergen County saw two surprise results as Ramaz knocked off TABC and Kushner upended Frisch, both by 4-3 margins. This will mark the first final that has not seen either TABC or Frisch compete since 2017 when the league was won by the Kushner Cobras. Over in Girls Varsity, the Cobras were not as fortunate, getting walloped by Frisch by the score of 8-0. The defending champions will now await the winner of tonight’s contest between Heschel and Ma’ayanot to determine their last obstacle to a repeat.
Continuing with the Ramaz theme, the Rams will find themselves in another final, but not one that would have been anticipated a year ago. A 4-4 squad barely qualifying for the playoffs in 2023, Ramaz now finds themselves fighting for a Girls Hockey championship for the first time since 2019 following a 3-2 overtime win over East champion HAFTR. Standing in their way will be the defending champions, Frisch. The Cougars, 1-0 winners over SAR in last year’s final, walked away with a victory by the same score last night to head back to the championship game.
Heading outdoors to the diamond, and Boys Softball where the favorites ruled the week. Top seed Hillel blanked TABC 4-0 and will advance to take on Netzach HaTorah, winner of the 4-5 contest over Heicher HaTorah by the same score. On the other side of the bracket, #2 Darchei Torah squeaked by HAFTR 8-7 but will move on to face YDE, winners of an easier contest, a 10-3 victory over MAY, ending the Eagles hopes of heading back to the finals.
Finally, in Baseball, a crushing defeat for the East top seed DRS Wildcats who were unable to keep the Kushner Cobras from steamrolling them 17-7. The 4-4 Cobras advance to the semis and will be joined by Frisch, 2-0 winners over TABC in the last route-4 rivalry matchup of the year, and Heschel, who doubled-up Hillel 6-3 to return to the semifinals and the SAR Sting, 10-0 winners over HAFTR last night. The Cobras are the only new face to the semifinals preventing a repeat of last year’s final 4 by knocking out DRS.
Starting next week, we’ll hand out hardware and begin the countdown to the wrap-up of the 2023-2024 Sports Year.

Thanks Nachum!
We have reached the end of May, which signals the beginning of the end to the 2023-2024 school year. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, a horrific week for teams East of NYC in soccer, familiar foes get set to meet up in girls varsity hockey and a dominating upset in girls softball. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start out in Varsity soccer, where it was a terrible week for the East, as neither Boys nor Girls soccer had a quarterfinal winner outside of the Western Conference. In Boys Varsity dominant wins by Frisch, Kushner and TABC eliminated HANC, North Shore and Rambam, respectively, and, in a major upset, West #4 seed Ramaz went into the Greenhouse and knocked off East champ DRS 4-3 to advance. The semifinals will see TABC host Ramaz this coming Sunday and Frisch and Kushner within the week.
The Frisch-Kushner contest will also occur between their female counterparts, as the Girls Varsity playoffs saw Frisch blank Central and Kushner dominate HAFTR. Much like in the Boys Varsity, a top HALB family team received a shocking upset as West #4 Heschel defeated East Champion SKA 6-5. They will now take on Ma’ayanot, who completed the West sweep defeating North Shore.
In Girls Hockey, the semifinals are set following SAR’s 3-2 overtime win over Heschel. The Sting will now take on Frisch in a repeat of last year’s championship, a 1-0 Double Overtime affair won by the Cougars. The two will vie for the chance to each bring home a 2nd banner in the last three years when the winner takes on the winner of Ramaz and HAFTR, taking place on Long Island this Friday afternoon.
Moving outdoors, softball has moved into the knockout stages as well. The 4 top seeds enter the postseason with a combined 3 losses between them and seem poised to compete for the crown, however, they will need to first get past their quarterfinal opponents. Top seed, undefeated Hillel will square off with 8th seed TABC on Friday with the winner taking on the winner of last night’s “Torah Bowl” between Heichal HaTorah and Netzach Hatorah. On the other side #2 Darchei Torah will host Frisch and on Wednesday MAY will travel to Brooklyn to take on Central champion, #3 YDE.
And in Girls Softball, East top seed Central found themselves on the wrong side of a major shutout, losing 10-0 to West #4 Frisch. The Cougars, the defending champs will await the winner of West #2 Bruriah and East #3 Shulamith, meanwhile West champion Hillel hopes to avoid the same fate when they play HAFTR and HANC will host Ma’ayanot to round out the quarterfinals.

From the Sword2Shekel website:
Show appreciation to our soldiers and uplift their morale with your donation
How can anyone decide which is more important: thanking soldiers or saving small businesses? We do both at once. We thank soldiers through saving small businesses.
Every dollar of your generous donation goes into high-value gift cards for our soldiers. These gift cards purchase merchandise from small businesses severely hurt by the war.

From the campaign page:
My name is Simeon/Shmuel Ratner and I have been involved with Israel efforts since I started the first collection for Israel in New Jersey on Monday morning, October 9th. After getting invited by the Tzanchanim in December to observe a drone mission on the northern border I decided to commit my efforts for the most part to getting units the drones they needed. Since then I have sent dozens and dozens of drones plus drone equipment to multiple units with more on the way.
For the past few months I have been a campaign manager at The Ari Fuld Project, an amazing organization that has helped me facilitate my efforts to get this critically needed equipment.
During my most recent trip to Israel, I visited many units, however, I have decided to focus my most recent efforts on the following units (though not to the exclusion of others, when needed):
Sayeret Charuv
Battalion 82 of the 7th armored Brigade
Additional Units
I have been working with these units to not only supply them with drones but also to help them understand the differences between the many drones on the market to tailor their drone request list based upon their mission’s need.
These units are of the opinion that in many ways, drones are now just as if not more important than their guns in certain situations.
Furthermore, the drones allow the units to inspect buildings, tunnels and other areas uncovering potential ambushes, booby traps and other dangers. Drones have saved many lives in this war and continue to do so on a daily basis.
Please help me support the drone needs of these units so they can perform their missions in a safer and more efficient manner.
For further details please feel free to reach out to me at:

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. You can read the transcript of this morning’s update below.
Thanks Nachum!
The Spring indoor sports have reached their postseason stages, which means that another round of championships is not too far behind. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, we’ll set the stage for the playoff brackets that have already began and we’ll update you on where the diamond sports are as they too head toward the knockout rounds. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Boys Soccer is where we’ll start as North Shore could not wrap up the Varsity East, taking an 18-11 loss to HANC, dropping the Lions to 2nd in the East and wrapping the 4 spot up for the Hurricanes. As a result DRS will take the East #1 and will meet up with Ramaz on Thursday, the same night as the other matchup on their side of the bracket Rambam and West #2 TABC. The other two games, West Champion Frisch against the aforementioned HANC Hurricanes will be tonight in Paramus and North Shore will host Kushner tomorrow.
Girls Varsity Soccer will also start tomorrow night with undefeated East champion SKA taking on Heschel. The Sonics wrapped up their season with a close 7-4 victory over Central who settled into the East #4 seed and will meet up with undefeated West Champion Frisch on Wednesday. West #2 Ma’ayanot will meet up with North Shore on Thursday and HAFTR and Kushner will play their contest next week.
Boys Volleyball saw Ramaz get back on track and obliterate Flatbush in 3 sets to remain the only undefeated team in the league. Ramaz and Flatbush will be the 1 and 2 respectively and await the winner of HAFTR- SAR and TABC, a 3 sets to 1 winner over Magen David last night in Brooklyn.
In Girls Varsity Hockey, the defending champion Frisch Cougars put their stamp on the West with a 4-1 win over SAR. The outcome gives Frisch the 1 seed and a bye along with East champion HAFTR at #2. But with Ramaz’s 3-1 win over Ma’ayanot last week, the Sting dropped to #4 where a date with #5 Heschel and a possible rematch with Frisch in the semis looms on the horizon. Speaking of rematches, Ramaz and Ma’ayanot would kick off the playoffs this past Sunday as the 3 seed Rams advanced with a 2-1 win and will travel to HAFTR with a berth in the finals on the line.
Heading outdoors to Boys Softball where YDE and Hillel have wrapped up the Central and West divisions respectively. Hillel swept 4 games this past week over MTA, Frisch, SAR and Magen David, giving up only 1 run in the combined contests to improve to 7-0. In the East, though, a deadlock at the top as Netzach Hatorah knocks off MAY 8-1 to improve to 7-1 and Darchai Torah takes two off MAY on the same day to reach the same mark in a tie atop the division.
In Girls Varsity, an old powerhouse has reappeared atop the boards, as Central stands at 6-0. The Wildcats can wrap up the East with a win tonight over Magen David. Meanwhile, out West, Hillel improves to 6-0-1 with a hard-fought win over contender Bruriah 6-5.
Finally, in Baseball, DRS has roared to the top of the East with a record of 6-1. Their only blemish, a 1-run loss to MTA who sits at the bottom of the West, making this a year where anyone can truly top anyone on the road to the finals. The loss now leaves SAR as the only remaining undefeated team in the league, currently atop the West at 6-0, but a date with 5-1 Frisch looming in a game that could decide the division.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. You can read the transcript of this morning’s update below.
Happy Yom Ha’atzmaut everyone!
It’s Mid-May which means the continuation of the Spring sports season and a ramp up to the postseason. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, Boys Soccer experiences a logjam while Girls Soccer becomes very clear, the top seed in Girls Varsity Hockey comes down to one night, and in Boys Volleyball, Ramaz suffers a loss…of sorts…Good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start out in boys volleyball where Ramaz is no longer perfect. No, the Rams are still undefeated, having knocked off SAR this past week to improve to 7-0 and clinch the Western Conference, however, the contest marks the first time this year that Ramaz has not swept a match. Ramaz cruised in the first 2 sets against the Sting before dropping the third set 21-15, ending a 22-set win streak dating back to the 2nd set of the finals last year, where they faced SAR. The Rams will now go from one matchup of undefeateds to another, as they face Flatbush tomorrow night where the winner will be the only remaining team without a loss on the season.
Moving over to Girls Hockey where two games this Wednesday night will set the playoff picture. Of the 6 teams heading to the post-season, five will be from the West, with 4 in action and the Western Conference championship on the line. Frisch and SAR will square off with the winner being crowned the top team in the West while, at the same time Ramaz and Ma’ayanot will face off where Ramaz will have the opportunity to jump into the 3rd seed with a win. The 2 seed will go to tiebreak between HAFTR, HANC and SKA as the East champion, with that team being the only East team in the postseason. Joining the 5 will be Heschel, who know that they will be on the road come the first round of the post-season, but will await the contests to know whether they will be the 5 or 6 seed.
In Boys Varsity soccer, the top seed in the East and West may come down to tiebreakers. In the East, North Shore and DRS sit tied at 13 points with a North Shore contest against HANC remaining. Should North Shore lose, the two teams would be deadlocked with their only matchup between them a 4-4 tie. Out in the West, it could be three teams who may sit at the top where TABC and Kushner are tied at 11 points, but Frisch sits right behind them at 10 points with 1 game in hand. Meanwhile, Girls Varsity soccer is having no such problems. The East and West have clear-cut winners as SKA and Frisch have gone through the year spotless. The only spot still up for grabs is the final playoff spot in the East, which will either go to North Shore or HANC. HAFTR, Central, Ma’ayanot, Kushner and Heschel have already locked up the remaining berths and await the postseason tournament.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.

They also briefly revisited Jason’s book: “In the Path of Abraham: How Donald Trump Made Peace in the Middle East–and How to Stop Joe Biden from Unmaking It.”
From the Simon & Schuster website:
An insider’s perspective on how the Abraham Accords were concluded and why they offer a way forward to a new era of peace and prosperity in the Middle East—if only they are not abandoned by the Biden Administration.
This book charts the remarkable journey of Jason D. Greenblatt, who spent nearly two decades in various senior positions at the Trump Organization—including as an Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer—and his subsequent appointment by President Trump as an Assistant to the President and Special Representative for International Negotiations. Jason was also assigned the position of White House Special Envoy to the Middle East, playing a key role in the Peace to Prosperity Plan, which aimed to resolve the discord between Israel and the Palestinians, and Israel and its Arab neighbors. Thanks to these efforts, including Jason’s role in establishing the groundwork for the Abraham Accords, many Middle Eastern countries now have improved relationships with Israel, such as the United Arab Emirates, the Kingdom of Bahrain, Sudan, and the Kingdom of Morocco. In the Path of Abraham is a call to action—an urgent plea to the Biden administration not to abandon the progress the Trump administration began, but to embrace and expand on it. The stakes could not be higher—and time is not on our side.

From Mosaica Press:
Hashkafah is how we understand our world and how we are meant to live within it. Middos and hashkafah are inextricably linked—we express our hashkafah in our behavior and root our behavior in our hashkafah. These topics, however, are often not studied in an organized fashion.
Essentials of Judaism addresses hashkafic ideals and behavioral standards in a comprehensive, topical order. Based on the teachings of Pirkei Avos, the central Tannaitic repository of hashkafic material, and the related Avos D’Rabi Nosson, this volume stirs readers to live life with increased awareness and meaning.

Thanks Nachum!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, Frisch continues their dominance on the hardball rubber, Flatbush soars into the conversation on the Volleyball board and Frisch hands Ma’ayanot their first loss of the season in Girls Soccer. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ve covered every sport so far this Spring season, with the exception of Baseball. Thus far, the diamond has belonged to the defending champs and this week only served to widen the gap between Frisch, last year’s runners up SAR and everyone else. The Cougars went 2-0 this past week, defeating Heschel and MTA by a combined 18-1 and are now 3-0, tied with SAR who took wins over Hillel and TABC themselves. The two teams are the only Western Conference squads without a blemish. DRS joins them at 3-0 in the East, but its clear that we are potentially headed for a championship rematch between two schools who have dominated the Spring over the last few years. Other scores from the diamond, Ramaz picks up their first win in a thriller 11-10 over JEC, TABC edges out MTA 2-1 in extra innings and DRS outlasts Flatbush 6-5.
Speaking of Frisch dominance, the Girls Varsity Soccer Cougars are looking to defend their crown as well, and to this point have stood up to all challenges, including defeating previously undefeated Ma’ayanot this past week, 4-1. The win was Frisch’s third in the past 8 days, having also swept SAR in a home and home to improve to 5-0. The only other undefeated West, Kushner, has yet to really start their season, having only played 2 games, albeit two big wins over Bruriah and Na’aleh. They face SAR and Ramaz this week, in hopes of making a run at Frisch for a late season meetup atop the West. In other action, Central picks up their 4th win, edging out Flatbush 4-3, and Heschel picks up their 4th win with a dominant victory over Ramaz.
Finally, we take a peek back in on Boys Volleyball where Flatbush has joined Ramaz in standing out amongst the pack. The Falcons sit at 5-0 after knocking off previously undefeated HAFTR in 4 sets, as well as Magen David and Frisch in the last 8 days. Flatbush will have a chance to continue their road to the top tonight against 3-1 North Shore as they look to keep pace with Ramaz, who, at 6-0, still has yet to drop a set. The two are on a collision course for mid-May, right before the playoffs.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.

- Do you need a hechsher on flavored dental floss?
- Can that be used on pesach?
- What about tablets to clean dentures?
- Can those be used on pesach without a hechsher?

Nachum hosted Rav Daniel Glatstein to review his Pesach-centric ArtScroll release, “Rav Daniel Glatstein on the Haggadah: Revolutionary Insights into the Haggadah, the Exodus, and the Final Redemption.” Reminder to use promo code Radio24 when making any purchases at ArtScroll.com. Chag Kasher VeSameach!
From the ArtScroll website:
Rav and founder of Machon Maggid Harakiah in Cedarhurst, NY, Rabbi Daniel Glatstein is one of the contemporary Jewish world’s most popular speakers and respected maggidei shiur. In this unique work, he treats the Haggadah text not as a series of unconnected “vertlach,” but as a living, unified document, mirroring the slavery, miracles, and ultimate liberation in its words and structure.
The Rabbi Daniel Glatstein Haggadah features comprehensive analyses on never before tackled subjects such as, “Who Wrote the Haggadah?”, “What Is The Structure of The Haggadah?”, “How Many Words In the Haggadah?” and many other basic issues that give us a deeper understanding of our beloved Haggadah, and, indeed, of the entire experience of Yetziyas Mitzrayim.

Nachum had the pleasure of welcoming New York media icon Stan “The Maven” Fischler to the studio for a fascinating look at Stan’s book “Tales of Brooklyn.”
From the book’s Amazon page:
Every hero must have an origin story, and that includes New York media icon Stan Fischler. Known by millions of sports fans as “The Maven,” Fischler has written over 100 books on hockey, baseball, and transit systems―now he turns to his own story.
Fischler has written for national publications, met celebrities, and co-produced an award-winning documentary. But before all this, he was just a simple New York kid speeding around on his Roadmaster, riding the Coney Island Cyclone, and watching a double feature at the Kismet every Saturday.
“Tales of Brooklyn” is a collection of humorous and poignant stories that gives a fascinating glimpse of growing up in New York City during the Depression and WWII eras. Fischler’s intimate circle of family and friends will shape him into the Hall of Fame hockey writer that he becomes.
Loaded with nostalgic scenes of joy and sorrow, this origin story presents us with the moments that made “The Maven.”

Nachum welcomed Ari Rosenstein, Co-Founder & CEO at LifeShare, to this morning’s JM in the AM so he and the listeners could learn all about this global community of mutual support and compassion.
From the LifeShare website:
LifeShare is a pioneering initiative that embodies the essence of community support, offering a structured and reliable financial safety net to families facing the unforeseeable loss of a loved one. Our model is built on the foundation of peer-to-peer cooperation, where members pledge to extend emergency financial aid in the event of a tragic death within our community.
How LifeShare Operates:
Upon the passing of a community member, each LifeShare participant contributes a modest, one-time fee. This contribution is recognized as charitable, making it tax-deductible. In turn, the family of the deceased is swiftly granted a cash benefit, reaching up to $250,000, to alleviate the financial burden during such a distressing period.
Our Mission:
Our mission is clear – to proactively establish a financial bulwark for families before tragedy strikes, thereby obviating the need for urgent and unpredictable fundraising efforts post the loss of an uninsured community member. LifeShare’s online platform facilitates effortless access to emergency financial aid, underscoring our commitment to immediate and affordable support in times of need.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. You can read the transcript of this morning’s update below.
Thanks Nachum!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update we resume our coverage of the 2024 Spring sports seasons. We’ll take you to Girls Hockey where the West looks to stay best, SAR sits atop JV Soccer and we’ll get into the swing of things on the diamond. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Girls Hockey has ramped itself up over the past two weeks. Most teams have quickly reached or are approaching the midway point of the 8-game season. Three teams remain undefeated, all from the Western Conference. Heschel leads the league at 4-0-1, it’s only blemish, a 3-3 tie to Ramaz, while behind the Heat are Frisch and SAR, both currently at 3-0 and hoping for a rematch of last year’ championship. While not undefeated, Ma’ayanot and Kushner also sit at the 3-win mark and are in better playoff position than any East teams. Ma’ayanot hit the 3-1 mark following a 3-1 win over HAFTR last night. The loss for HAFTR, its second in a two-day stretch after falling to SKA on Sunday 3-2. HANC currently leads the East at 2-1, that following its 3-0 win over Central last night in Queens.
Moving over to JV Soccer where the SAR Sting have set the pace on both the boys and girls scenes. The Boys JV club is 5-0 and averaging 15 goals a game, recently knocking Frisch from the ranks of the undefeated in a 14-10 barn-burner. The Sting will play YDE next Tuesday and will await to see whether their contest against TABC in the first week of May will be a battle of the undefeated. TABC, currently at 3-0 will battle Frisch this coming Sunday. The Storm narrowly edged Heschel 9-8 in Teaneck last night. On the Girls JV end, the Sting are 4-0, outscoring opponents 20-1 in its first three games prior to its 9-7 victory over last year’s runners up Ma’ayanot. The Sting will square off with 3-0 Frisch tomorrow night. The defending champions Cougars have been dominant so far, yielding only 3 goals in its first 3 matches combined.
Moving outdoors for the first time this year, last year’s Varsity Softball runners up, the MAY Eagles are hard at work trying to erase its shortcomings, jumping out to a 4-0 record, defeating HAFTR and DRS on Friday and sweeping HANC on Sunday, shutting out the Hurricanes in both contests. Most other teams are just getting into the swing of their season, but MAY looks primed and ready to make a run back to the top of the league. The same can be said for both combatants in last year’s Girls softball finals. Runner up Hillel leads the West at 3-0 while defending champion Frisch sits at 2-0. Both will be in action this coming Sunday, with the Heat taking on Ma’ayanot and the Cougars facing Naaleh.
Next week, we’ll take a look at how things are shaping up in Baseball, where defending champion Frisch is already looking like the team to beat.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. You can read the transcript of this morning’s update below.
Thanks Nachum!
Welcome back everyone to the JM in the AM Sports Update as we kick off our coverage of the 2024 Spring Sports season. For the next few weeks, we will bring to you all of the action in soccer, boys volleyball, girls hockey and the diamond sports. Straight ahead, Rambam takes flight in boys soccer, Ramaz Boys Volleyball extends their dominance, but of course, we can’t totally move forward without running down Saracheck. Good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll kick off at the top with the biggest competition in all of Yeshiva League sports, the 2024 Red Saracheck Memorial Basketball Tournament. 21 teams converged on Yeshiva University for the last and notably the best basketball of the school year. The action kicked off Wednesday night as two Yeshiva League teams, DRS and Frisch met up in a first-ever play-in game, which saw the Wildcats advance into the tournament round. Of the seven Yeshiva League teams in the field, three, TABC, Flatbush and league champion Magen David would make it to the final four, but the crown jewel would go to a perennial non-Yeshiva League competitor, the YULA Panthers. YULA climbed over both Yeshiva League finalists, Flatbush by 9 in the semifinals and Magen David in overtime in the finale 69-59. The win marks the 5th straight tournament won by a California team and YULA’s 9th overall title. In the Third Place contest, Flatbush would erase a 9-point third quarter TABC lead, but a fantastic effort by Eitan Sulemanoff with 25 seconds to go would be the difference as the Storm took bronze with the 67-66 victory.
Coming into the 2024 Spring year, the Ramaz Rams were the personification of dominance in boys volleyball. It has been nearly five years since Ramaz tasted defeat, a feat tempered by the cancellation of two years due to Covid, but still impressive, especially after running the table to a league championship last year. For the start of the 2024 season, only more of the same. The Rams have already racked up four wins, now halfway through their regular season, running off straight set victories in each contest. They sit 2 games clear of TABC with a matchup between the two coming up on Monday. Meanwhile, in the East, HAFTR heads the leaderboard at 3-0 with Flatbush at 2-0 right behind them.
Moving over to Soccer, a surprising name tops the standings. The Rambam Ravens have remained perfect thus far, opening up with a 3-0 record, including a thrilling 7-6 win over DRS. Rambam will have three games next week against Flatbush, HANC and YDE, where they can open up a commanding lead and put pressure on the rest of the East to keep pace. Meanwhile in girls varsity, Ma’ayanot has jumped out to an impressive 3-0 start of their own, outscoring their competition 35-1 in the process.

Nachum featured the vital work of the Matzoh Fund with Founder and President Alan Hirsch on this morning’s JM in the AM. Once again, Alan and his team are putting in Herculean efforts to help those in need for Pesach and they could really use all of our support. Below you can read a letter from Alan on the Matzoh Fund site.
Since October 7th this has been a very difficult time for all of us living in Israel.
There is tremendous stress every day. We wake up every morning reading about those who were killed or injured. Baruch Hashem Jews from all over the world have been there for us. You have opened your hearts and your pockets and have helped in many ways. Now here comes Pesach. Thanks to you last year was our best year ever. We were able to get more place and families with more items than ever.
This year we have a much greater battle. The war has left many families with hardships. Husbands and sons are away at war. There are casualties, businesses are very slow because of the war. Inflation is very high. Here comes Pesach. We will need to help these families. We have done it for almost 30 years: We can’t stop now.
We have been contacted by even more families than usual who are in serious need. They come from yeshuvim such as Hebron, Kiryat Arba, Maaleh Amos, Bat Ayin, Metzad, Maale Chaver, Shilo, Elon, Moreh, Homesh, Chavat Gilad, Ytzhar, Eli, Tapuach, Itamar, Maale Levana, Karmei Tzur and other remote places in Israel.
While most people do not know where these places are, we have that knowledge and the ability to deliver to every one of these places. Last year we distributed matzoh, wine, grape juice, chicken, olive oil, potatoes, tuna and fruit to most of these families. For many of these families, it made Pesach possible. This year we hope to once again distribute meat. We also send a check or food vouchers to every family; this year, we are adding new food items to help these families with their Yom Tov needs.
Every penny you give is spent on the purchase and distribution of their pay needs, with no overhead whatsoever .
We are in the midst of ordering wine meat and chicken. We must raise almost $400,000 to cover these cost. In the past years you have been quite generous with your contributions. This year you have to dig deeper. These families have the highest percentage of soldiers in the country.
WE MUST HELP THEM
Some prices have really gone crazy. Olive oil is up 100%. Chicken is almost up 20%. Others are up more than ever.
Once again, we need your help. We really value your contribution.
Please use the enclosed envelope to send in your check today.
If you would like to view what we actually do, visit our website at Matzohfund.com.
Thank you for your help. Best wishes for you and your family for a Chag Kahser Vsamech!
Tizke LeMitzvot,

The Israeli entrepreneur, Amit Brandon Kadosh (26) managed to complete an exit while stationed on the Lebanon border as a combat reservist and a few hours after surviving an anti-tank missile attack. He is the founder of Éncourse, an app that helps people find meals tailored to their needs and personal allergies in restaurants in their area.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. You can read the transcript of this morning’s update below.
We have reached the end of the 2023-2024 Winter sports season! Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, two basketball championships highlighted by bitter rivalries and divisional pride. All that and more coming up, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
The Yeshiva League reached the conclusion of its version of March Madness this past Sunday as four teams converged onto the Max Stern Athletic Center on the Campus of Yeshiva University to crown the 2023-2024 JV and Varsity Basketball Champions. The JV finale kicked off the day with All-West foes Frisch and SAR meeting up in what had become a championship staple showdown in the mid- 2010s. The first half was a close affair that saw Isaac Stepner drain a buzzer-beater three to give the Cougars a 7 point lead at the break. The third quarter would see a changing of the tide, though as SAR racked off a 16-5 run capped by a buzzer beater three of SARs by Evan Goldberg and the Sting would barely look back as they rolled to a 59-47 victory.
The marquee matchup of the afternoon was the Varsity finale, an all-Brooklyn showdown between #2 Flatbush and #1 Magen David. Two close contests throughout the season were echoed early on as Flatbush took a 10-9 lead into the 2nd quarter and a 6 point advantage into the half. Flatbush looked to pull away early in the 3rd, but a 9-3 Warrior run to end the quarter closed the gap to within 2 and a minute a half into the 4th took the lead. Flatbush would eventually regain the lead, but with 42 seconds left, Marc Sardar give the Warriors a 44-43 lead. The Warriors would have control of an inbounds with 12 seconds left and a chance to ice the game, but a Jacob Hadded steal gave Flatbush life and an ill-advised inbounds foul with 9 seconds left put Ronnie Chaya at the line for two and a chance to win the game. Chaya would only hit one of two and the game would go to overtime tied at 44. The extra session would see a 2-point Magen David lead with 1 minute to go but that would be as close as the game would get. Missed free throws and a lid on the Flatbush basket doomed the Falcons as much as the Magen David foul shooting as the Warriors went on to win the Battle for Brooklyn finale 57-48 for their first championship since 2017-2018.
With those two seasons now in the books, we have come to the close of the 2023-2024 Winter Sports season. The Sports Update will now turn to spring sports including soccer, boys volleyball, girls hockey and of course, the diamond sports as we roll toward June and the end of the school year. We will be on break next week but will return in two weeks with all of the spring action.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.

Thanks Nachum!
Two more championships have been handed out with the Winter sports finale only days ahead of us. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, three hockey powerhouses meet up on Championship Sunday and a near major upset results in a thrilling semifinal in varsity basketball. All that and more coming up, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
This past Sunday saw JV and Varsity Hockey crown its champions, and for those following this season, the winners were no surprise, although the games themselves proved to be something different. Varsity was on the menu first this past Sunday in Frisch as the top two teams and perennial contenders, DRS and TABC did battle. TABC looked to reverse a lopsided loss to the Wildcats in DRS during the regular season and for most of the game, looked like the more aggressive team, but the Wildcats would not break and found themselves in the driver’s seat following a Max Pockriss 2nd period goal. Doniel Austein held down the DRS net and a heads up Jack Greenbaum goal in the closing seconds capped off the 2-0 victory for DRS’ first varsity win since 2017.
In the evening session, the top seeded SAR Sting met up with the JV Wildcats in a game that was every bit the opposite of the early one. Nate Zitter would give the Sting the lead less than 30 seconds into the contest and would steal the show over the next period and a half, picking up a natural hat trick en route to a 4-1 SAR win. SAR completes the undefeated the season and tabs their first JV crown since 2015.
With boys hockey now complete, all eyes turn to JV and Varsity Basketball this coming Sunday at the Max Stern Athletic Center on the campus of Yeshiva University. The early game will see an all-West affair as #1 Frisch and #2 SAR square off for the third time this year. Frisch earned their way to championship Sunday with a 64-44 win over #3 Hillel, while SAR went on the road and dispatched previously undefeated East champion DRS 47-38. In the two contests played earlier this year, both teams took home victories over the other, with each team taking their wins by 5 points.
The evening session will see an All-Brooklyn battle that nearly wasn’t. While top seed Magen David easily punched their way to the final with a 64-50 drubbing of HAFTR, their Sunday opponent, Flatbush almost found themselves on the losing end of a spirited exhibit from the defending champion North Shore Lions. The Lions held a 9 point lead in the 4th quarter, but watched the Falcons chip away and force overtime, closing out the final 10 minutes of play on a 17-2 run to stave off the upset 57-51. The JV game will tip off at 2 with the Varsity contest following at 5PM.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.

Nachum welcomed Rabbi David Sutton to this morning’s JM in the AM to explore his fascinating new ArtScroll release “A Daily Dose of Pesukim of Bitachon: Strengthening Your Reliance on Hashem One Pasuk At a Time.” Always remember to use promo code RADIO24 when shopping at ArtScroll.com.
From the ArtScroll website:
A life lived with tranquility and confidence. Success in business. Protection in times of danger. And, greatest of all, a way to strengthen our connection to Hashem. Yes, the blessings of bitachon are immeasurable. But how do we truly incorporate such trust in Hashem into our hearts?
The Talmud Yerushalmi, the Zohar, the Maharal and many other sources offer us a time-tested and effective means for embedding bitachon firmly within us. The Maharal even states that this technique is a segulah for success in business and protection in times of war.
What is this ultra-powerful technique?
Pesukim of bitachon.
That’s right, pesukim, brief verses from Tanach.
Reciting specific verses, these sources tell us, is an extremely powerful way of incorporating bitachon –and all its blessings — into every aspect of our lives. Indeed, when we internalize these pesukim, we will transform our very essence.
Rav Yosef Zundel of Salant, the teacher of Rav Yisrael Salanter, listed specific pesukim that strengthen our trust in G-d’s providence, faith, and salvation. In this groundbreaking work, Rabbi David Sutton examines each of those pesukim, and gives us a greater understanding of the many lessons we can learn from them. Through stories and insights, he shows us how to use the pesukim to strengthen our bitachon. Each pasuk is followed by a brief “Recap” that helps us review the power of the pasuk, and a section with practical takeaways.
Designed to be used as a daily reader, with one pasuk every day, in A Daily Dose of Pesukim of Bitachon we will discover the amazing power of just a few words to transform our lives and lead us to the simchah, the joy, that comes from living a life defined by bitachon.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
March is on the horizon and with it, the Yeshiva League version of March Madness. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, the hockey leagues are all ready for the semis while basketball plows through the quarterfinals. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg
We’ll start out in Varsity Hockey where the upstart lower seeds have seen their cinderella runs come to a halt. Wednesday night saw East 5 seed Rambam fall to the hands of neighborhood foe and league #1 overall DRS 7-1. DRS continued the run of 6-goal victories and advances to the semifinals where they will host Frisch this coming Sunday. The two squads met up last year at the same stage, where Frisch emerged victorious. On the other side of the bracket, the West #5 seed met the same fate, but by a bit closer margin. West Champion TABC knocked off defending champion SAR 5-2. The Storm will earn a date with HANC this Thursday night.
Also looking to advance this Thursday night, the JV Hockey top seed SAR. The Sting host 5th seed Frisch, the only team to put a dent in SAR’s perfect season, having clawed out a tie against SAR in the last game of the regular season. The winner of that contest will meet up with the winner of DRS and HAFTR who play tomorrow night in DRS. The teams met a few weeks ago with HAFTR upending the Wildcats 1-0 in the Greenhouse.
In Varsity Basketball, the six seeds both saw their bids end. The East 6th seed, Waterbury came close to pulling off an upset against East 3 seed HAFTR, losing a close battle 58-56 to round out the first -round matchups. HAFTR will now square off with West #2 Ramaz tonight with the winner to advance to play Magen David. The Warriors kicked off the quarterfinals last night against West 6th seed SAR knocking the Sting off 74-54. The other half of the bracket will kick off tonight as well as East #2 Flatbush host West #5 Ohr Yisroel and tomorrow night with West #1 TABC battling defending champion North Shore.
In JV Basketball, the West first-round saw both higher seeds advance in close matchups as Hillel knocked off JEC 64-60 and TABC defeated Ramaz 55-52. As a result, Hillel will matchup with North Shore tomorrow night, while TABC will square off with DRS this Motzai Shabbos, with the winner to play SAR. West #2 seed SAR has already punched its ticket to the semis, downing East 3 seed Flatbush 56-37. To round out the bracket, Frisch will host HAFTR in Paramus tomorrow night.
Speaking of Frisch, the Girl Varsity Cougars are heading back to the finals after downing Ma’ayanot. Frisch will now wait and see whether they will see a repeat battle with SKA who takes on North Shore tonight. That championship will take place this Sunday, following the JV game between Frisch and SAR, winners over Ma’ayanot and North Shore respectively to punch their tickets to the finale.
And that was your Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.

Thanks Nachum!
Week two of the playoffs are in the books, and as expected, the home teams finally showed up. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, all but one home team were victorious this past week, Varsity Basketball champions made it 3 in a row, Ohr Yisroel celebrates their first playoff win, and in Varsity Hockey the 2 seeds deep-six the competition. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg
We’ll start out in Varsity Basketball where the defending champs are still alive. The North Shore Lions clinched their way into the postseason with two must-wins over the DRS Wildcats to end the regular season, and last Thursday, they made it number 3. The Lions started off hot outshooting the Wildcats and really never allowed it to be a contest, knocking off the 5 seed 75-55 behind Jonah Carmili’s 30 points, including 7 from behind the arc. The Stars will now await tonight’s contest between East #3 HAFTR and #6 Waterbury to see whether they will play TABC or Ramaz in the quarterfinals. On the other side of the river, Ohr Yisroel, the West 5 seed took home their first playoff win, defeating Heschel 47-37 in Heschel. Ohr Yisroel will now play East #2 Flatbush as the West has officially advanced it’s 5th and 6th seeds with SAR going to play Magen David.
JV Basketball East has completed its first round with the top seeds advancing to the Quarterfinals. A close game early on, #3 Flatbush dominated the second half in a 52-19 victory over YDE, while the only non-Brooklyn East first round team, HAFTR knocked off #5 Magen David 52-43. Flatbush will play West #2 SAR tomorrow night while HAFTR and Frisch work out their matchup. The West will have its round completed this week as JEC and Hillel will have their rescheduled match tonight in Deal and Ramaz and TABC will tangle in Teaneck tomorrow.
In Girls varsity basketball, the final piece of the semis was filled in as Frisch defeated HAFTR 79-30. The West top seed will now host #3 Maayanot next Monday night in the semis with the hopes of another finals visit. Hoping for the same on the other side will be defending champion SKA taking on North Shore next Tuesday.
Finally, we wrap up with Varsity Hockey where both #2 seeds are semi-bound. Eliya Yizhaky’s hat trick has HANC back in the semifinals after the Hurricanes knocked off Kushner 7-1. They will now await the winner of West top seed TABC and West #5 SAR taking place Thursday. On the other side of the bracket Frisch manhandled HAFTR 8-2 to advance where they will now await the winner of East top seed DRS and Rambam, which takes place tomorrow night.

Thanks Nachum!
We are only a week into the 2023-24 postseason where, thus far, the results have not been kind to the home teams. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, 4 boys playoff contests end with the victors riding off into the sunset.. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg
We’ll start out in Hockey. In Varsity, Wednesday night saw the West #5 seed SAR knock off East #4 host Magen David 5-1 to advance to the quarterfinals against TABC. The next night, the East #5 seed Rambam returned the favor to MTA 5-0 behind 5 goals by Zevi Herskowitz and a Rami Kessock shutout to stay alive and move on to face East top Seed DRS. Both games will take place next week. The quarterfinals, however, will begin tomorrow night, when the 2 and 3 seeds will square off as HANC hosts Kushner and HAFTR travels to Frisch.
In JV the #5 seed Frisch avenged a loss to #4 YDE earlier this month to advance to the semifinals where they will play #1 SAR. As we said last week, this means that all three pre-championship contests will be repeats of contests that took place in the last 2 weeks, and thus far, the results have not been the same.
However, the biggest upset of the early playoffs happened late last week in Varsity Basketball where the West #6 seed ensured that at least one of last year’s finalists would not get another crack at the championship. A week after defeating Frisch in Frisch to lock up the last spot in the West postseason, the SAR Sting did it again, eliminating the 3 seed 63-46 behind Jonathan Itzhaki’s 17 points. The Sting will now face the East top seed Magen David. The two teams met in December with the Warriors taking a 12 point win. The other West contest will take place tomorrow night with Heschel hosting Ohr Yisroel and the winner to take on Flatbush, while one of the East contests, North Shore and DRS will take place on Thursday.
The Boys JV Basketball playoffs was scheduled to start tonight with Hillel and JEC, but the weather may have other plans. Both ends of the East First round will take place tomorrow night with Flatbush hosting YDE and Magen David visiting HAFTR.
Given the light week, let’s take a look at the Girls Varsity Basketball playoffs where, the trend of visiting winners continues. Both 3 seeds topped 2 seeds as Maayanot outlasted Flatbush last night 30-28 and North Shore upended SAR 52-41. Bucking the trend, however, is SKA. The defending champion Sonics, the East #1 seed took out visiting Ramaz and will meet up with North Shore next. Ma’ayanot will await the winner of tomorrow night’s contest with Frisch and HAFTR.
And in Girls JV Basketball, mixed results as one host and one visitor took wins. In the East, North Shore upended Flatbush 35-34 to advance to play SAR, while Ma’ayanot knocked off visiting Ilan and will now meet up with defending champion Frisch.

Nachum welcomed Daniel Pearlman to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss the campaign going on to help Yeshiva Gedolah Ohr Chodosh in Sea Gate, Brooklyn, rebuild after their recent devastating fire.
From the Dryveup.com campaign page:
Our bachurim today need something more.
The field of chinuch is one that is built on a paradoxical balancing act — remaining tethered to generations-old mesorah while utilizing methods effective for our talmidim in this era.
Yeshiva Gedolah Ohr Chodosh in Seagate, a bais medrash for bachurim from all across the East Coast, is an institution that has managed to bridge this contradiction with remarkable results B”H.
Under the leadership of the Rosh Yeshiva Rav Eliyahu Sonnenschein, together with the Menahel Rav Moshe Lamm, Yeshiva Gedolah Ohr Chodosh was founded seven years ago upon the unwavering belief that each Talmid, with his natural abilities and unique areas of interest, must be recognized and appreciated, ultimately becoming the cornerstone of his personal aliyah. While allowing each and every Talmid to be true to himself, his kochos are tapped into and unlocked to realize his greatest hatzlocha in Torah and growth in ruchniyus.
But good things never come easy.
The growing yeshiva was recently struck by a fire which damaged the Bais Medrash and Dormitory, derailing the yeshiva’s regular operations. Fortunately the damage to the bais medrash was properly restored, but the impact on the dorm space has proven to be more significant and the lack of a successful resolution to-date continues to hinder the yeshiva’s lofty mission.
A critical undertaking has been launched to renovate the facility and take the yeshiva into the future. This endeavor received the appropriate name: FORWARD.
Today, the yeshiva and all who care about our bachurim’s future are looking forward —
Forward to a renovated yeshiva building.
Forward to putting the devastating fire behind us.
Forward to bachurim filled with fire and bren for life.
But we can’t do it alone.
We urge you to please join us in stepping up for this wonderful institution and help ensure that Ohr Chodosh can continue serving our bachurim.
Acquire a zechus in Torah and tefilah that will last for eternity by being part of Forward today.
Generations of Bnei Torah are counting on you!

Yummy Blessings is a female-owned and operated company that was founded in 2016. What started as a hobby to boost our morale, turned into a small business, and became a vehicle through which we were able to build ourselves from the inside out. As we began to tap into our own innate blessings and find qualities within ourselves, we were able to see that our challenges were not a barrier to our success; they were an integral piece of our story.
We launched Yummy Blessings 2.0 is to be able to spread our message and be the voice of change. We want to show teens everywhere that just like them, we faced challenges. Just like every other teen, we have weaknesses and shortcomings. But our challenges didn’t hold us back; they were the catalyst to get us to where we are today. And so are yours.

Liora set up the organization to respond to the unmet, unrecognized needs of victims of terror and their families. Terror attacks destroy the lives not only of those who perish but also of those who survive. There are hundreds of victims of terror who “fall between the cracks” of the Israeli government’s aid initiatives. They do not receive help because their injuries are deemed insufficient to be recognized as medical disabilities, or because they are still in the process of being assessed for disability (which can take two or more years).”

From the Bisra website:
Bisra Meats LLC is proud to offer many products that are not commonly available on the Kosher market. Aside from the variety of meats, we offer an unsurpassed diversity of cuts and organ meats from all of the animals that we process. All of these cuts are soaked, salted, and packaged in our Hackensack, NJ facility.
Rabbi Avidan Elkin learned at MTJ on Manhattan’s Lower East Side and then at Yeshivat Netivot Yosef in Mizpe Yerihho, Israel, where he studied from 1999 to 2005, where he received Semikhah from Rav Shabbtai Sabbato, ShLYT”A. He began his rabbinic career at the Sephardi Center of Fair Lawn, NJ, in 2005, and from there moved to Manhattan’s Upper West Side, where he lived with his family until 2017. Since then the Elkins have been back in Bergen County, NJ, where the passion for meat and serving it to ‘Am Yisrael has only grown.
Rav Elkin taught at Yeshiva University from 2006 to 2015, and received his Semikhah in Shehhitah & Lung Checking from Rav Eliyahu Ben Chaim, ShLYT”A, of Queens, who serves as the Sepharadi Rosh Yeshivah at YU. Rav Elkin recveived his Semikhah in Niqur (fore- and hindquarter Treiboring) from Rav Yehudah Giat, ShLYT”A, the personal Shohhet of former Chief Rabbi of Israel, Rav Mordekhai Eliyahu, ZZ”L. Rav Elkin also trained in Millah by Rav Giat and received Semikhah from him in that field as well.
Rabbi Elkin graduated from NYU’s College of Arts & Sciences with a BA in 3 major concentrations: French Language & Literature, German Language & Literature, and Economics. He spent his third year in the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, and later spent 2 years studying general and special education at Bank Street College of Education in NYC. He spent 6 years as a Sofer Beit Din writitng Gittin for several NYC-area Batei Din, including the Beit Din of Elizabeth (under Rav Meir Elazar Teitz), the Beth Din of America (under the RCA), and the Sepharadi Beit Din of Rav Eliyahu Ben Chaim in Queens, NY.
All of our fresh, aged, and cured products are under the strict Kashrut supervision of Rabbi Avidan Elkin, ShLYT”A. Our cattle, goats, and lambs are all checked and approved as Kesheirim Lekhatehhillah to the standards of the Beit Yosef and RM”A regarding Sirkhot (lung adhesions). All of our meat is soaked and salted as a matter of protocol, but unsalted meat may be available upon special request.

From the Makor Chaim Charidy page:
Giving you Heart & Soul!
38 years ago, in hope of establishing a unique, creative and evolving House of Study, we established “Makor Chaim” a shining “source of life”, originally in the holy city of Jerusalem. Ever since then, Makor Chaim has been a magnet for all those who wish to connect to our unique brand of modern Israeli Chassidut, a movement founded first and foremost, on a special group of people who are joined together in their thirst for inspiration. The concrete educational methods developed by our founder, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz זצ”ל together with Rav Dov Singer יבל”א are now inspiring and training educators throughout the world.
Out of necessity and out of a yearning for the green open spaces of Gush Etzion, Yeshivat Makor Chaim moved to Kfar Etzion over 20 years ago, to “temporary” facilities, without ever finding suitable permanent quarters. It was only during the search for our kidnapped students in 2014, visiting Israeli leaders finally understood our urgent need for a new home.
For eight long years we have dedicated ourselves to the construction of a beautiful new campus – practically an entire neighborhood! In the spirit of accepting the “yoke of the kingdom of heaven from one another”, we turn to you and personally ask for your help so that this summer, we can finally come home this unique place on the ancient “Derech Ha’Avot outside of Neve Daniel.
Let’s Light the Place UP!

Thanks Nachum!
Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, if it seems like I’ll be repeating myself for the next 4 minutes, it’s really because I am. Two schools pockmark the Yeshiva League landscape this coming week, and it’s nothing that we haven’t already seen this year. All that and maybe more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We start out in hockey where this update might make you think of boys in March, rather than girls in May, but Girls Hockey, will, in fact, feature a repeat of the Boys championship as Frisch and SAR will square off in Maayanot tomorrow night. Both teams advanced on shutouts, as League top seed Frisch blanked Kushner 3-0 while SAR rolled over East champion HAFTR 6-0 to square off for a championship for the second time this year. SAR will look for its second championship in a row with the girls having won last year over Heschel and its second hockey championship this year, with the boys having beaten Frisch a few months ago.
Speaking of SAR beating Frisch, boys soccer saw the Sting knock off the Cougars 9-8 last week in the semifinals, as Senior star Gabe Sklar netted 8 goals to lead SAR to the finals where they will square off with another Jersey nemesis, TABC. The Storm dominated North Shore 9-3 behind Avishai Avidan’s 4 goals to advance to tonight’s championship in JEC. The game will follow the Boys JV Championship which will also feature SAR and North Shore, after their wins over TABC and Frisch making it very apparent that the powerhouses of the future in Yeshiva League Soccer are exactly as they are right now.
Over in girls soccer, the JV championship saw Frisch defeat Ma’ayanot 6-5 in TABC last Wednesday. The varsity squad will look to do the same tomorrow night in Ma’ayanot against who else, SAR as the teams will lock up at 6:30 prior to the hockey finals between the two schools that I just mentioned a moment ago. Frisch, the top seed pulled out a nail-biter 6-4 win over Kushner while SAR steamrolled over SKA to give us yet another finals matchup between the two schools.
That being said, by this time Thursday morning, only boys volleyball and the outdoor sports will remain undecided.
Boys Softball will be at the semifinal stage as Heichel Hatorah and Keter Torah, Magen David and MAY, HANC and YDE and Maor and Hillel will have their quarterfinals before the week is over. The same for Darchai and Netzach Hatorah, Flatbush and Hillel, TABC and MAY and HAFTR and YDE in JV, and MTA and DRS, TABC and Frisch, Flatbush and SAR and JEC and Heschel in Baseball. Girls Softball expects to be in a similar position as HAFTR and Ilan and SKA and Frisch will play this week, with HANC and Hillel and Bruriah and Shulamith all to be determined.
The 2023 Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament will take place Sunday June 11th in HAFTR. As usual, the 8-team event will be a fundraiser for Hatzolah, with our acclaimed memorabilia raffle, this year highlighted by our top prize, an autographed Adam Fox All-Star Game Jersey. Tickets for that and the rest of our amazing prizes will be available on our new and improved website which will go live over the next few days.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
Indoor sports are semifinal ready and outdoor sports are winding down leading into the shavuos break. Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, top seeds advance in Girls Varsity Soccer, but not in Boys Varsity Soccer, two shutouts highlight the girls hockey quarterfinals and a newcomer find themselves hot in the playoff mix in boys varsity softball. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start out in soccer, where, in Boys Varsity, a trio of quarterfinal contests took place Wednesday completing the round of play. The 4-5 contest lived up to the billing, going to sudden death, where Frisch outlasted host HANC 6-5 to advance to meet top seed SAR. The other half of the bracket saw West Champion TABC trounce DRS 11-3, and saw a major upset avoided as North Shore outlasted Ramaz 5-4. Both Semifinal contests, in SAR and TABC will take place tonight.
In Girls Varsity, the last two semifinal spots were filled, with the two higher seeds moving on with lucky 13 spots on the scoreboard. Kushner defeated Heschel 13-5 and SAR outpointed North Shore 13-11 to advance. SAR will next meet up with East Champion SKA tonight on Long Island, with the winner awaiting the winner of tomorrow night’s contest between Kushner and Frisch in Frisch.
In Girls Hockey, the semifinals are all queued up after two first round shutouts. Home teams SAR and Kushner each advanced following shutouts over Ramaz and Heschel, respectively. Heschel and Kushner were scoreless for over 30 minutes before the Cobras struck for 3 goals in the final minutes for their 3-0 victory to advance to play top seed Frisch. SAR blanked the 6 seed Rams 4-0 and will take on East Champion HAFTR. Both contests will take place tomorrow night.
Heading out onto the diamond, a big week in the Central as Zichron Paltiel knocked off Magen Abraham twice to jump to 5-2 and catapult into the playoff picture. The wins kick wide open a door left open by Magen David’s 12-9 loss to Shaare Torah, handing the Warriors their 2nd loss in a row and third on the year. Zichron Paltiel can lock up the post-season spot when they take on Flatbush tomorrow night. However, should Flatbush prevail, the two teams and Magen David will all be tied at 5-3 with at most two, and depending on Maor’s matchup with SAR tomorrow night, only 1 of the three may find their way into the knockout stages.
The 2023 Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament will take place Sunday June 11th in HAFTR. As usual, the 8-team event will be a fundraiser for Hatzolah, with our acclaimed memorabilia raffle, this year highlighted by our top prize, an autographed Adam Fox All-Star Game Jersey.

Nachum welcomed Jerusalem’s Deputy Mayor Fleur Hassan-Nahoum back to JM in the AM to review her recent trip to Morocco for the launch of FemForward’s MENA program.
Read more about it below:
FemForward, a trailblazing initiative aimed at addressing the gender disparity in managerial positions within the tech industry, launched its MENA cohort this week in Casablanca. This transformative program brings together a diverse group of 23 women from Morocco and Israel and is supported by the American Embassy in Jerusalem and in collaboration with the UAE-Israel Business Council.
The three-month program tackles the challenges to advancement women face when progressing from junior to managerial positions. Following the seminar, the mentorship will continue for two months along with weekly online workshops given by women working senior positions. This virtual phase of the program will enable the participants to develop their skills in management, negotiations, learning to take their career into their hands, while establishing lasting connections with their mentors and fellow participants.
Several prominent local organizations and companies in Morocco are joining in the effort, including Commons Zerktouni, Microsoft, McKinsey and AFEM.
At the heart of FemForward lies its cross-cultural mentorship model, where each participant is matched with a mentor from a different country in their field within tech. This unique approach fosters meaningful connections and encourages a global perspective among the participants, truly embodying the spirit of the Abraham Accords.

Nachum welcomed Rabbi Yisroel Besser to this morning’s JM in the AM to explore his latest ArtScroll release, “Tefillas HaShelah: A parent’s timeless prayer – composed by Rabbi Yeshayah HaLevi Horowitz of Prague with translation, commentary, and stories.”
From the ArtScroll website:
Written by Rav Yeshaya HaLevi Ish Horowitz — the SheLah HaKadosh – Tefillas HaShelah is the prayer recited by generations of parents, asking Hashem for righteous and successful children. It is traditionally recited on Erev Rosh Chodesh Sivan, while others choose to say it more frequently, with some reciting it every day.
Though written more than 400 years ago the words of the tefillah are timeless, speaking to the yearnings and hopes of every parent in every era. Even more: Tefillas HaShelah serves as a guide to the most effective way to pray for our children – and, yes, to pray for ourselves. Drawing upon both classic commentaries and fascinating true stories, bestselling author Yisroel Besser discovers the eternal messages in the tefillah.
This is a book for parents, for those who dream of becoming parents, and for anyone who hopes to create an impact on future generations. The stories (and there are so many of them!) will touch our hearts. The insights will change our lives.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
Playoff time is back in the yeshiva League and we are only a few short weeks away from crowning our Spring Champions. Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, two Ramaz teams celebrate making the playoffs in entirely different fashions, a final already set in Girls JV Soccer, a major upset in Boys JV Soccer and the top seeds open up play in Varsity Soccer. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
In Volleyball, Ramaz completes the undefeated regular season, and will join SAR in the semifinals awaiting the winner of tonight’s matchup between DRS and Magen David and the other quarterfinal where Flatbush will host North Shore. The Wildcats and Warriors will meet up for the second time in a week. Last week the Warriors jumped out to a 2 games to 0 advantage and were only points away from a sweep before DRS took over, won the 3rd set and held Magen David to only 8 points in each of sets 4 and 5 for the 3-2 victory.
In Girls Hockey, Central could not seal the deal on a playoff berth, losing identical 5-0 results to SKA and Ramaz on consecutive nights. As a result, Ramaz jumps the Wildcats gaining the 6 seed and a date with 3rd seed SAR in Riverdale on Thursday night. The 4 vs 5 matchup will happen tonight as Heschel travels to Kushner. Frisch and HAFTR await the winners in the semifinals.
In Boys Varsity Soccer, SAR opened the playoffs as the 1 seed knocking off 8 seeded Kushner 16-7. They will now await the winner of tomorrow night’s contest between Frisch and HANC. It will be one of three contests on the night as the other half of the bracket Ramaz and North Shore and DRS and TABC will take place meaning that we will know our semifinal participants by Thursday morning.
In Boys JV, an Overtime upset as North Shore downs top seed Frisch 6-5. Their finals opponent will be determined tonight as SAR and TABC meet up in TABC.
A close call in Girls Varsity as Frisch eeked out a 4-3 win over Maayanot to advance to meet up with the winner of tonight’s Kushner- Heschel matchup and SKA blitzed Ramaz and now awaits the winner of North Shore and SAR tomorrow night. Meanwhile, in JV, Frisch and Maayanot each put up 7 spots in their semifinal matchups and will meet up in the championship.
Meanwhile in Boys Softball, MAY did clinch the top seed, sweeping Darchai and will be joined in the post season by Hillel, YDE and HANC with 8 games left this week to decide the remainder of the post-season participants.
The 2023 Martin Weiselberg Memorial Junior High Hockey Tournament has been announced for Sunday June 11th in HAFTR. The 8 team field will include the host Hawks, HANC, HALB, Har Torah, Yavneh, SAR, Moriah and Noam. The kids will once again be raising $10,000 for Hatzolah.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
Just as quickly as Spring sports have begun, the month of May brings us within inches of the playoffs. Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, JV soccer’s postseason has been determined, with varsity boys and girls not too far behind, Girls Hockey has their top spot decided and Boys Softball defending champs are on the verge of locking down theirs as well. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
In Boys Soccer, the eight playoff teams have been decided with the top 3 seeds locked in. SAR, TABC and North Shore have each won their divisions and will be 1-3 in that order in the postseason. Ramaz, Frisch and HANC all took wins this past week to finish at 6-2 and depending on how the tiebreakers fall out, will place 4-6, meanwhile, DRS and Kushner finish with 10 points and know that they will either face SAR or TABC in the first round.
Girls Soccer is a little more undecided, as each of the 3 division winners have finished at 8-0 and will need tiebreakers to determine their seeding. Kushner finishes in the 4 seed but will need to wait to see how tiebreakers shake out between North Shore, Ramaz and possibly Heschel to find out their opponent. Ma’ayanot has also earned a berth and will need to wait to see how the top 3 shake out to know where they will be playing in Round 1.
The JV league playoffs have been decided. In Boys JV #1 Frisch will host #4 North Shore and #2 TABC will take on #3 SAR. Frisch’s 6-3 win over TABC last week locked up the top spot for the Cougars. In Girls JV Frisch and North Shore will square off as well with the same seedings, while Maayanot in the #2 will host #3 SAR.
In Girls Hockey, a clear #1 has emerged as the Frisch Cougars have finished the regular season undefeated following a 3-1 win over SAR last night. The win, gives Frisch the top seed in the upcoming playoffs and relegates the Sting, now 7-1, to 2nd place in the Western division. In the East, HAFTR took two wins to up their record to 4-4. The results have put HAFTR on the edge of a playoff berth, depending on what happens in the remaining contests this week featuring Central and their matchups with SKA and Ramaz.
In Boys Softball, MAY can clinch the East with a win over Darchei this coming Friday and can clinch the top spot in the postseason with a sweep. Meanwhile, clear divides have formed between the top and bottom of all three divisions, as MAY and HANC have 6 wins in the East, 4 ahead of Darchei, Magen David and YDE each have 5 wins in the Central, 3 ahead of Flatbush and Zichron Paltiel, and Hillel, Heichel and Keter Torah all have 5 wins out West with the Central and West still up for grabs heading into the final week.

Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, as we enter the month of May, MAY continues their torrid run in Softball, TABC puts their undefeated record to the test in Boys Varsity Soccer and it’s a two team race at the top of the West in Girls Hockey. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
In Girls Hockey, Central has risen to the top of the East with a record of 3-3 following their 1-0 shutout win over North Shore. Central now has a two point lead over the Lions and HAFTR who dropped identical 2-0 results to Ramaz and SKA to drop both teams to 2-4. Out West, Frisch, SAR, Kushner and Heschel have all clinched playoff berths. The division has become a two team race, though, as Frisch and SAR are both undefeated following Frisch’s wins over Kushner and Ramaz and SAR’s 5-1 win over SKA. The two will meet up next Monday night in a showdown to decide the West crown.
In Boys Volleyball, the defending champs have made their presence known. The SAR Sting swept two contests on the week, including a straight set victory over previously-undefeated Flatbush. Now sitting at 6-0, the Sting will gear up for the only remaining other undefeated team, Ramaz. The Rams took 3 on the week, knocking off North Shore, DRS and YDE to match SAR at 6-0.
In Boys Varsity Soccer, SAR wrapped up the Central with a 13-6 win over Ramaz. SAR and TABC remain the only undefeated teams, as TABC took care of JEC and Kushner this week, but will face a tall task against Frisch tonight. In their last meeting, coming out of the Pesach break, the Storm were able to take a 2-1 win over the Cougars out in Paramus. The playoff race will definitely be an interesting one, though in the middle of the pack. Currently 6 teams not leading their respective divisions are tied with 8 points at some variation of 4-2 or 4-3. How this week shakes out will have a massive impact on who goes on to the postseason and who goes home.
Moving over to the diamond, MAY is putting on a clinic in Boys Softball, taking an undefeated 6-0 record into the month of May. The Eagles have scored double digits in 5 straight contests, including a sweep over DRS, 14-3 and 12-2. Magen David has hit the half-way point at the top of the Central at 3-0-1. The Warriors took identical 12-2 wins over Flatbush and Shaare Torah this past week to lead the division. Out West Hillel and Heichel Hatorah remain locked in a heated battle, as Heichel stayed undefeated with a 10-run win over MTA. The two will meet up next Wednesday.

From the ArtScroll website:
Learn How to Really Love Your Fellow Jew!
In his brilliant essay on ahavas Yisrael, the Beis HaLevi, Rav Yosef Dov Soloveitchik, beautifully explains the mitzvah of loving your fellow Jew. Who does the mitzvah apply to? When does it apply? What do I need to do to fulfill it properly? The Beis HaLevi also provides incentives to help us do the mitzvah in the best possible way.
Translated and elucidated by Rabbi David Sutton, author of ArtScroll’s bestselling Beis HaLevi on Bitachon, Beis Halevi on Ahavas Yisrael contains wonderful insights, uplifting stories, and in-depth appendices, as well as a special section of touching anecdotes about gedolim from a range of generations and communities.

Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, we welcome the diamond sports back into the mix as Softball and Baseball are in full swing, we have an early playoff position clinched in boys volleyball and a logjam in girls hockey. All that and more straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Leading off, boys varsity softball, where the defending champs, the MAY Eagles have jumped out to a 4-0 start, sweeping doubleheaders against Rambam and HANC while giving up only 1 run in the process. The three shutouts have MAY at the top of the East. Out West, three teams still have 0s in the loss column with Hillel at 3-0 after wins over MTA, TABC and SAR, Keter Torah at 2-0 and Heichel Hatorah at 2-0, following a sweep of Frisch this past Friday, which included a 15-14 barnburner in Paramus. The East has just barely gotten underway as Magen David and Flatbush have each pulled out the only wins in the conference so far.
On deck is Girls Softball where Frisch and Naaleh have opened the season with wins out West, Frisch at 2-0, Naaleh at 1-0 and Shulamith-LI took a 12-3 win over Flatbush this past week to join HANC at 1-0 and drop Flatbush out of the ranks of the undefeated to 2-1.
In the hole is Boys JV Softball, where defending champion Hillel has also cycled to a 4-0 record. Their lead over the West is now 3 games over the only other team to have a record over .500, Heichel Hatorah who is only 1-0 following an 8-6 victory over winless MTA. Out East, MAY is currently ahead in wins at 3-1, but the defeat was a big one, taking a 14-7 loss to HAFTR who sits at 1-0. Darchei is also undefeated at 2-0.
Cleaning up is Baseball in which the defending champ Frisch Cougars made an emphatic statement to open up their title defense on Sunday, walloping Flatbush in Brooklyn. They join Kushner and SAR at 1-0 on the early season out West, while DRS has rode 1-run wins over HAFTR and Flatbush to a 2-0 record at the top of the East.
In Girls Hockey, both divisions have become logjams as the West and East each have 3 teams tied for the respective division leads. Frisch and Kushner posted shutouts this week to join Heschel at 10 points and Central and North Shore each took victories to join HAFTR at the top of the East at 2-2.
Finally in Boys Volleyball, Flatbush has clinched a playoff spot following a 4 set win over Frisch to push their record to 6-0. They gear up for matchups with the other two remaining undefeated sides as they travel to 4-0 SAR this Thursday and then await 3-0 Ramaz in mid-May to wrap up their regular season.

The American Society for Yad Vashem is proud to present the American Premiere of Lera Auerbach’s Symphony No. 6, “Vessels of Light,” on April 19, 2023, 7 PM at Carnegie Hall. This moving, large scale symphonic work for solo cello, choir, and orchestra, was inspired by the heroism of Chiune Sugihara, the Japanese Vice-Consul to Lithuania, who saved thousands of Jewish refugees during WWII.
Ms. Auerbach was approached by world-renowned Japanese-American cellist Kristina Reiko Cooper to write the work. Her husband’s father, Irving Rosen, was the recipient of one of thousands of visas Sugihara issued. In her words, “Chiune Sugihara’s story deeply touched me, and I felt utterly compelled to bring this incredible story forward. I could not stop thinking about how my husband and children are alive, that they exist, because of this man’s bravery.”

WHAT: Replica of WWII Era Cattle Car used to transport Jews to Nazi death camps will be in Times Square as part of Orthodox Union (OU) Southern NCSY’s Hate Ends Now tour to combat antisemitism, intolerance, and racism, and to commemorate Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) and the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising
WHEN: Tuesday, April 18, 2023- Exhibit opens 8a-9p; local elementary and high schools and community groups visiting throughout the day, VIP event at 7pm with local elected officials, community leaders, Holocaust survivors and U.S. Army Veterans
WHERE: Times Square – Broadway Pedestrian Plaza between 45th Street and 46th Street
WHY: In commemoration of Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) and the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, hoping to counteract an increasing wave of antisemitism, the OU’s Southern NCSY will be presenting the Hate Ends Now exhibit The Cattle Car: Stepping In and Out of Darkness in Times Square.
Uniquely housed in a traveling replica of a WWII-era cattle car similar to those used by the Nazis to transport Jews and other targeted groups to concentration and death camps, The Cattle Car: Stepping in and Out of Darkness, includes a powerfully immersive multimedia experience where visitors watch a movie projected in 360 degrees, onto the walls around them helping them to understand the harrowing experiences of those crammed into similar rail cars around 80 years ago. The video presentation also includes the testimony of two Holocaust survivors, Hedy Bohm and Nate Leipciger. An artifact exhibit showcased outside of the cattle car provides added visuals to the overall educational experience.
The exhibit also calls attention to the modern day, showing how the dangers of intolerance, antisemitism, and hatred exist today. It was created by Southern NCSY in partnership with ShadowLight.

Thanks Nachum!
Welcome back to the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update as we begin our coverage of Spring sports. On today’s edition, we will bring you up to speed on soccer, girls hockey and boys volleyball as the diamond sports all first kick into high gear this coming week. Good Morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start off with Boys Varsity soccer where all teams will be at least halfway through their schedule by next week. In the East, DRS and HANC have jumped into the lead at 6 points. The Wildcats are 3-0 with the Hurricanes at 3-1, their only loss, a 5-3 defeat to DRS before the holiday break. North Shore is right behind both teams at 5 points, 2-1-0-1. In the West, TABC currently sits at 3-0, 2 points better than Frisch and Kushner. The Storm have already defeated the Cobras in a high-scoring 7-6 battle to open their campaign and will take on the defending champion Cougars tomorrow night in Frisch. The Cougars could not overcome the Cobras, falling to Kushner 6-3 to start their season. Meanwhile, last year’s runner up, SAR, remains undefeated in the Central at 4-0, two points better than Ramaz, at 3-0. At least one of these two teams will have a 1 in some other column after tomorrow night, when they meet up in SAR.
In Boys JV, TABC and Frisch are your leaders at the halfway mark in the 9 team field. TABC at 4-0 and Frisch at 3-0. Frisch will look to square things up tonight, when they face off with YDE.
In Girls Varsity, SKA has jumped out to a 4-0 record in the East, with the next three teams behind them all stuck at 2 points. SAR and Ramaz are at the top of the Central at 5-0 and 4-0, respectively, both were in action last night and came home with wins against Flatbush and Central, respectively. Meanwhile, out West, Frisch is at 3-0, but it’s Kushner who has jumped out to a 5-1 record, leading the West. Frisch has already gotten the better of the Cobras this year, but Kushner will look to even the score against the defending champs tonight in Frisch. Frisch, though, is in rare form, having outscored opponents 47-5 in their matchups this year.
In Girls JV, Frisch, SAR and Ma’ayanot have jumped out to the top of the 7-team field at 4-0, 4-1 and 3-1. Frisch took care of Central, last night to take the league lead.
Moving over to Boys volleyball, Flatbush has blasted out to a 5-0 record. The rest of the league is all bunched up way behind them beginning with SAR and Ramaz, both 2-0, DRS, Magen David and North Shore all at 2-1, with DRS heading into a battle with 0-3 YDE last night. Flatbush will have a chance to further their grasp on the top spot when they take on 1-1 Frisch, in Frisch, tomorrow night.
Finally, in Girls hockey, Heschel has already played 7 of their 8 games, jumping out to a 5-2 record in the West. Their two losses have come to teams right behind them in the standings, Frisch and Kushner. Kushner is currently at 3-1 and Frisch is currently 2-0, both looking upward at the defending champions, SAR who currently sit at 4-0. In the East, teams are just hitting their mid-season as HAFTR leads the division at 2-1, and no other team has played more than 3 games.

Thanks Nachum!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, the Saracheck Tournament caps off our Winter Sports coverage. Good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Twenty-four teams converged on Yeshiva University this past weekend to vie for one of the three tier championships at the 2023 Red Saracheck Memorial Basketball Tournament. Eight Yeshiva League teams were among the participants including last week’s League championship combatants North Shore and Frisch. Unfortunately for both teams, neither would reach the final, however, the league was well-represented on Championship Monday. In the Tier III Championship, JEC upended Kohelet 52-42. The Thunder shook off a Day 1 loss to Fuchs Mizrachi to take victories over Maimo and Mesivta of Greater Philadelphia to reach the final. Yosef Heller took home the MVP for the Tier.
Tier II saw DRS fall to that same Fuchs Mizrachi team. DRS found itself in Tier two following a qualifier loss to Magen David to begin the tournament. DRS defeated RASG and Berman, but could not overcome the Mayhem, who also took out TABC on their road to the final. The 53-39 victory by the 14th seed over the Wildcats was set in motion early with a 22-4 first quarter stretch that allowed Fuchs to coast the rest of the way.
The Main event of the tournament, however, was the Tier 1 final, which saw 2nd seed Valley Torah take on 5th seed SAR. The Sting earned their way to Championship Monday by knocking off the tournament top seed Shalhevet in a stunner on semifinal Sunday 57-55 behind 23 points from Akiva Shanzer. Valley Torah punched their ticket by defeating Cali rival YULA by 10. The Sting rolled out to a 16-6 lead, but the Wolfpack were resilient, chipping away and closing the gap to 1 at the half 31-30. The second half was all Valley as the Wolfpack rode 17 points from Johnny Dan to their second straight Tier 1 championship.
With Saracheck drawing to a close, so too does the 2022-2023 winter sports season. Tune in after the Pesach holiday for soccer, boys volleyball, girls hockey, softball and baseball as the JM in the AM Sports Update turns the focus to the Spring.

From the ArtScroll website:
Rav and founder of Machon Maggid Harakiah in Cedarhurst, NY, Rabbi Daniel Glatstein is one of the contemporary Jewish world’s most popular speakers and respected maggidei shiur. In this unique work, he treats the Haggadah text not as a series of unconnected “vertlach,” but as a living, unified document, mirroring the slavery, miracles, and ultimate liberation in its words and structure.
The Rabbi Daniel Glatstein Haggadah features comprehensive analyses on never before tackled subjects such as, “Who Wrote the Haggadah?”, “What Is The Structure of The Haggadah?”, “How Many Words In the Haggadah?” and many other basic issues that give us a deeper understanding of our beloved Haggadah, and, indeed, of the entire experience of Yetziyas Mitzrayim.

You can help Yad Ezra V’Shulamit’s important work by click the image below:
From the Yad Ezra V’Shulamit site:
Yad Ezra V’Shulamit is fighting a different kind of war. By providing food, clothing, and emergency relief to tens of thousands of Israeli children and their families each year, we’re fighting a battle for the future of our most precious resource – Jewish children.The poverty crisis in Israel has worsened dramatically since Yad Ezra V’Shulamit’s founding in 1988.###### Today, an astonishing one-third of all children live below the poverty line.
Yad Ezra V’Shulamit is reaching out to these forgotten children and their families with these year-round efforts:* 10,000 weekly food baskets and food vouchers distributed in 91 cities * 50,000 food baskets distributed for Passover and Rosh Hashanah * Children’s Centers providing food, educational support and fun activities for 500 children daily * Distribution of new coats, shoes, backpacks, school supplies, blankets and heaters * Emergency relief delivering tons of food to victims of war and terror
Yad Ezra V’Shulamit was founded by Mr. Ariel Lurie, a Jerusalem businessman who grew up poor himself. Today Mr. Lurie runs the organization, together with hundreds of volunteers, who do their best to make sure every child knows that he will be fed and clothed, and personally cared for as much as any other child with means.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/elibeeronJMintheAM03212023.mp3Nachum welcomed Eli Beer, Founder and President of United Hatzalah of Israel, to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss Rabbi Nachman Seltzer’s fascinating new ArtScroll release “90 Seconds: The Epic Story of Eli Beer and United Hatzalah.”
From the ArtScroll website:
An Israeli child is born in a Ukrainian bomb shelter — and United Hatzalah brings her home under fire …
A United Hatzalah volunteer scales a 12-foot-wall – and is the first to respond to the tragedy of Meron …
Eli Beer, founder of United Hatzalah, slips and breaks his leg racing to an emergency — and manages to crawl to the choking child and save her life …
The amazing work of Israel’s United Hatzalah began, incredibly, when five-year-old Eli Beer witnessed a terror attack and dreamed of being the one to save the victim. While still a young teen, Eli set out to make that dream come true, creating an underground network of pioneering EMTs who were determined to bring their life-saving skills to victims in only 90 seconds, no matter where they were.
90 Seconds is the story of how a boy who failed in school created one of the the world’s largest all-volunteer emergency service. It’s the story of dramatic rescues, sometimes under fire. Of life-changing and life-saving innovations such as the “ambucycle.” Of bringing United Hatzalah’s lifesaving experience to Nepal, Haiti, and, most recently, Ukraine, and their heart-rending rescue work in the Surfside and Versailles wedding hall tragedies.
It is the story of how with determination, vision, self-sacrifice and compassion — and, of course, siyata D’Shmaya (the help of Heaven) — lives can be saved and dreams can come true.

Thanks Nachum!
Today’s JM in the AM Sports Update is dedicated in memory of my father Avraham Menashe ben Dov Be’er Halevi, on this, his 17th Yehartzeit.
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update we crown our final two champions of the 2022-2023 winter season as Boys JV and Varsity basketball take center court. Good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
A year after championship Sunday saw four New York teams fighting for the JV and Varsity crowns, we returned to a more traditional New York-New Jersey affair. The JV matchup kicked off the afternoon with two West teams as 1 seed TABC squared off with 2nd seed Ramaz. The underdogs would hold the upper-hand for most of the contest as the Rams held 7 point leads out the 1st and 2nd quarters and would even hold a double-digit lead in the closing moments of the 3rd, paced by the inside play of Sophomore Isaac Ohayon and the hot hand from beyond the arc, Sophomore Nate Sugar who would finish the afternoon with 15 and 12 respectively. However, foul trouble would be the name of the game for both teams, but especially for Ramaz, and it gave TABC new life in the final quarter. Prior to that point, TABC had been a dreadful 3 for 10 from the line, but Sophomores Eyal Kinderlehrer and Yonah Mandel would combine to shoot 6 of 8 in the final 8 minutes and the Storm would outscore the Rams 18-4 down the stretch to erase the deficit and turn it into a 6- point TABC victory, 46-40. Kinderlehrer and Mandel finished with 14 and 11 respectively, but Mandel’s massive back to back 3’s were the spark that brought the Storm back from near-certain defeat, earning him MVP honors. The win completes the undefeated season for the Storm who bring home their 2nd JV title in the last 6 years.
The main event of the afternoon would prove to be a real catfight as the North Shore Lions and Frisch Cougars matched up for the Varsity trophy. Frisch would find their grove early, specifically Senior Alex Zakheim who single-handedly outscored the Lions 11-10 in the first quarter, but a rare off-day for the Cougars as a whole proved to be their undoing as North Shore would allow only one bucket from the field in the 2nd quarter, and jump out to a 24-17 halftime lead. Zackheim would continue to drain shots, finishing the afternoon with a game-high 24, but by the time the rest of the Frisch squad found their groove, North Shore had already opened up a double-digit lead and did not slow down, riding a 26 point 4th quarter to a 63-43 championship victory. Junior Ben Abizadeh led a group of 9 Lion players making marks on the scoresheet, topping 20 points, en route to pulling in a Varsity final MVP to match the JV MVP that he took home in last year’s championship by the Lions. Senior David Orbach and Junior Jordan Zarka each added double-figures in the North Shore victory helping lead North Shore to their 2nd Varsity title and the Junior group to their 2nd championship in a two-year stretch.
With that, another winter sports season has drawn to a close. However, that does not mean that the competition is over. The close of the Yeshiva League Basketball season, means that it is time for the 2023 Red Sarachek tournament. Starting this Thursday, you can tune in to MacsLive and Yeshiva League Pass for all of the action as 24 of the nation’s top teams converge on Yeshiva University to vie for the most prestigious title in Yeshiva sports. We’ll recap all of the action for you right here next week.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/RabbiMayerStambleronJMintheAM03202023.mp3Nachum welcomed Rabbi Mayer Stambler, Chabad of Poland Co-Director, to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss their Passover fundraising initiative that seeks to raise nearly $500,000 to support holiday expenses for Ukraine’s Jewish communities and their refugees in Poland. Visit the campaign site HERE.
You can read the press release below:
CHABAD OF POLAND LAUNCHES EMERGENCY CAMPAIGN TO FEED 9,000 UKRAINIAN JEWS OVER PASSOVER
WARSAW – As the world marks the anniversary of the Russian incursion into Ukraine and the reverberations the war has caused throughout civilization, Chabad of Poland is launching an emergency campaign to feed nearly 9,000 Ukrainian Jews during Passover.
The group’s Passover fundraising initiative seeks to raise nearly US$500,000 to support holiday expenses for Ukraine’s Jewish communities and their refugees in Poland. Funds will be used for sending out Seder kits to families unable to attend communal meals, hosting communal Seder meals in various locations in Poland and Ukraine, and providing food and accommodation for those families in greater need during the holiday.
Since the beginning of the conflict, Chabad of Poland has helped thousands of Jewish Ukrainian refugees resettle in Poland or by serving as a religious waypoint for those resettling in Israel and other nations. Throughout their time in Poland, Chabad’s locally based emissaries have provided shelter, food, and religious services to those in need.
“Passover is widely celebrated by Jews of all backgrounds. But it is an expensive holiday because of the special types of food that week. The cost of celebrating Passover for an average family is high, but for refugees, it is almost impossible for them to shoulder those expenses without our help. Last year at the start of the war in Ukraine, we saw an influx in the number of Ukrainian Jews who relied on us for refuge from the war and those from abroad who opened their hearts to support these victims of the conflict,” said Chabad of Poland Co-Director Rabbi Mayer Stambler. “But as the war still wages, there is still a great need to support these families to assure that we can provide them with as much of a positive holiday experience as possible.”
Passover begins at sundown on April 5 and celebrates the exodus of ancient Jews from Egypt, a transition from slavery to freedom. Celebrated annually, the holiday starts with two Seder nights recounting the story of the miracles of the exodus and runs eight days during which Jewish tradition dictates a special diet excluding leavened products and legumes.
For more information and to participate in the campaign, please visit www.saveajew.org.
Since the start of the Russian incursion into Ukraine, Chabad of Poland based in Warsaw has opened its doors to Ukraine’s Jewish community offering refuge, transportation, kosher food, medical aid, financial and material assistance, childcare, educational and social services, communal activities and administrative and legal aid to tens of thousands displaced by the conflict. Since the start of the war, Chabad in Poland has seen its expenses rise by more than US$2 million.

Happy Pie Day everyone!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, hockey crowns its champions, but nobody wanted either season to end on time, and the matchups are set for this Sunday’s Boys Basketball championships. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Hockey had its turn to shine this past Sunday as hockey would actually have a Championship Sunday for the first time since 2019. However, in a twist, due to the participants, the contests would need to be played at two different venues in two different states. The JV took center stage to begin the day, as seen live on the Yeshiva Sports Network, and sponsored by the Nachum Segal Network, at Frisch as TABC and DRS, the two division champions squared off in a rematch of last year’s contest. A scoreless contest through one period of play, DRS opened up the scoring early in the 2nd on a goal by Sophomore Aiden Frenkel. TABC would answer back midway through the period on a power play goal by Sophomore Bentzion Keiser to knot it up at 1 apiece. The teams would clamp down and we would remain scoreless through the third sending the championship into overtime. However, it would not take long to determine a winner. Three minutes in, Sophomore Aiden Rauzman took a pass at mid court and fired a rocket into the top far corner of the DRS net completing the 2-1 victory, mirroring DRS’s 2-1 victory over TABC in Frisch the previous year. Rauzman and Storm goalie Sophomore Shai Forgash would take home MVP honors in the win.
The night portion of Championship Sunday would occur two hours East in DRS, where Frisch and SAR packed the Greenhouse for the Varsity championship, also seen on the Yeshiva Sports Network, sponsored by the Nachum Segal Network. The scoring would come fast and in waves as Frisch charged out behind two goals by Senior Jake Feit and one by Senior Ethan Alter to a 3-0 lead mid-way through the first. SAR, however, would not crumble. A laser shot by Senior Stephan Nayowitz would get the Sting on the board before the end of the first, and a two minute stretch in the 2nd would see Junior Asher Rudman land two of his own to tie the game heading into the third period of play. Alter would take the lead back for Frisch in the early moments of the third who looked to dig in and preserve their advantage. However, a Cougar penalty would give the Sting another opportunity and SAR would capitalize on an Eytan Krausz rocket to tie the game. Like the JV game, time would trickle down and we would find ourselves in an extra session. Unlike the JV, this one wouldn’t be decided until late in the period, when in a mad scrum in front of the Frisch net, the ball found its way to the stick of Sting Senior Gabe Hornblass, who would put it home off the back bar at the top of the net to give SAR its first varsity championship since 2018. Rudman, one of the lone Juniors in the contest recorded 2 goals and 2 assists and walked away with well-deserved MVP honors.
We now turn our attention to the last remaining open leagues, JV and Varsity Boys Basketball. The finals are set for this coming Sunday at the Max Stern Athletic Center on the campus of Yeshiva University. At 1PM, the top 2 West seeds, TABC and Ramaz will meet up to determine the JV crown. TABC throttled SAR 57-29, while Ramaz rode 25 points by Sophomore Isaac Ohayon to upend favored Magen David 54-49. At 4PM, Frisch will be back in action after surviving Magen David 61-59 behind 43 combined points from Isaac Schiffman and Alex Zakheim, but it will not be the Sting that they see in this final. SAR fell last night in an instant classic to North Shore 58-56, setting up a battle of the cats, the Cougars and the Lions in the city this Sunday. You can catch all of the action starting around 12:45 live at MYHSAL.COM in a joint production of the Yeshiva Sports Network and MacsLive, sponsored again by the Nachum Segal Network.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Rabbi-Nosson-Scherman-on-Reb-Chaim.mp3Nachum welcomed Rabbi Nosson Scherman, General Editor of ArtScroll/Mesorah Publications to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss Rabbi Naftali Weinberger’s new ArtScroll release “Rav Chaim: The Life and Legacy of the Sar HaTorah Rav Shmaryahu Yosef Chaim Kanievsky.”
From the ArtScroll website:
Rav Chaim Kanievsky was the Sar HaTorah, master of every area of Torah knowledge and author of dozens of Torah works on topics ranging from the basic to the arcane. He was a fount of guidance, comfort, and blessing to tens of thousands. His diligence in Torah was legendary, yet he opened his home and his heart to all who sought him.
But despite all the stories we have heard, there is so much more. And Rabbi Naftali Weinberger is the perfect person to give us the rest of the story.
Rabbi Weinberger has had a uniquely close relationship with Rav Chaim Kanievsky and his family for nearly thirty years — so much so that Rav Chaim authorized him to write the bestselling biography Rebbetzin Kanievsky.
His unparalleled access to Rav Chaim and his family enabled him to produce this fascinating biography, giving us an insider’s view of the Sar HaTorah’s remarkable life and achievements, including warm and personal stories heard directly from the family and rare photographs appearing in print for the very first time.
In these pages, we will come know the Torah aristocracy that was Rav Chaim’s family — the Chazon Ish, the Steipler, Rav Elyashiv, and others — from the family’s unique perspective. We will encounter the Torah giants and “simple” Jews who were part of Rav Chaim’s life, and see how he interacted with them.
The Prince of Torah gave our People so much in his lifetime, and through this extraordinary volume his memory and example will continue to inspire us. We will aspire to emulate his diligence and love for Torah, his shalom bayis, and the chinuch he instilled in his family. We will learn to care for and welcome every Jew. And we will see how a Torah giant who valued every moment of Torah study freely gave of his time for others.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
Chag Sameach everyone!
We are in the home stretch of the Winter Sports season! Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, the first pieces of gold have already been awarded in Girls Basketball, Hockey will do the same this Sunday and Boys Basketball will follow suit, but not before two high-level semifinal matchups. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Girls JV and Varsity Basketball are the first to complete their seasons and crown queens of the court. In JV, Frisch topped SAR 48-40, finishing off a perfect season to take home the first of the fall championships. Their older sister Cougars, however, could not do the same. The SKA Sonics completed their perfect season, knocking off Frisch 62-52 behind 31 points from Sophomore Daphna Steinmetz. The Sonics, more used to hanging B Division banners have now earned an “A” League championship to accompany the last banner raised in 2019.
The next set of championships will come this Sunday, as the Boys JV and Varsity Hockey leagues get set to hand out their first set of Winter hardware. In a first, this year will feature a same-day split venue doubleheader, with the JV Championships between DRS and TABC taking place first in Frisch. The two met earlier this year, in TABC, with the home team victorious and now looking to cap off a perfect season. Puck drop is scheduled for 1:00PM. The day will then shift back into New York, where the Varsity championship will take place in DRS. Unfortunately for the host school, the Wildcats will not be involved, having dropped their semifinal matchup to Frisch 4-1. Frisch will now go back to the final and join the earlier repeat matchup by taking on….SAR. The Sting throttled any chance of a double repeat final, knocking off TABC 5-2. SAR led 3-0 entering the 3rd, but 2 goals in two minutes closed the gap for the Storm, however, the Sting would keep at it and stretch the lead back out in the closing minutes. Puck drop for the varsity final will be 8:00PM. You can catch both games on the Yeshiva Sports Network with pregame festivities, with current coaches Avidan Berman and Josh Kass and former coaches like David Kolb and yours truly, beginning at 12:30 and 7:30PM by going to the Yeshiva League website, MYSHAL.COM. To become a sponsor, like Yeshiva League Pass, reach out to YLSweisguy@gmail.com.
The following Sunday will see JV and Varsity Basketball’s championship take center stage at the Max Stern Athletic Center on the campus of Yeshiva University. Varsity Basketball’s semifinals will take place over the next 6 days, with both #1s and #2s advancing. West #1 Frisch, 15 point winners over Flatbush in the quarters taking on Magen David in Frisch on Thursday night. In the other bracket, East #1, undefeated North Shore will face off with West #2 SAR following the Sting’s 48-41 victory over DRS. That contest will take place next Monday. In JV, East #1 Magen David rounded out the semifinal field and will host West #2 Ramaz. Magen David dropped Frisch 72-66, which means that unfortunately for my broadcast colleague, but fortunately for all of you that tune in to the championships on the Yeshiva Sports Network, Cougar coach Dovey Forman will be joining me, once again in the booth this year. In the other bracket, TABC and SAR will square off this Thursday night. SAR represents the only non- #1 or #2 seed in the JV or Varsity semis.

Once again, Alan and his team are putting in Herculean efforts to help those in need for Pesach and they could really use all of our support. Below you can read a letter from Alan on the Matzoh Fund site.
Another year has passed and we are making our Pesach preparations.
Thanks to you last year was our best year ever. We were able to get to more families than ever before in more place than ever before.
This year we have a new battle: Inflation is hurting anyone and Yom Tov is getting even harder to make. And the prices we pay for the items we buy have gone up between 10 and 30%.
More people need help for Pesach and we have to be there to answer the call. We have been contacted by even more families than usual who are in serious need. They come from yishuvim such as Hebron, Kiryat Arba, Maaleh Amos, Bat Ayin, Metzad, Maale Chaver, Alon Shvut, Shilo, Homesh, Chavat Gilad, Yitzhar, Eli, Tapuach, Itamar, Maale Levana, Karmei Tzur and other remote places in Israel.
While most people do not know where these places are, we have that knowledge and the ability to deliver to every one of these places. Last year we distributed matzoh, wine, grape juice, chicken, olive oil, potatoes, and fruit to most of these families. For many of these families, it made Pesach possible. This year we hope to once again distribute meat. We also send a check or food vouchers to every family; this year, we are adding new food items to help these families with their Yom Tov needs.
Every penny that you give is spent on the purchase and distribution of their Pesach needs, with no other overhead what-so-ever.
We are in the midst of ordering wine, matzah, meat, and chicken. We must raise over $350,000 to cover these costs. In the past years you have been quite generous with your contributions. This year our costs have skyrocketed. As a result we are asking you to take an extra step and give a little more to help pay the extra costs. Once again, we need your help. We really value your contribution.
Please Help us Help
Sincerely,
Alan Hirsch

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
The days are ticking down to the 2022-2023 Winter finals and two matchups are already set. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, JV Hockey and JV Girls basketball are gearing up for their big games, Varsity hockey and Varsity Girls Basketball will get there tomorrow night and JV and Varsity Boys basketball will take their time as their final is almost three weeks away. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
JV Hockey is the first boys league to have its championship matchup set. The 2023 final will feature the same teams as the 2022 final, the TABC Storm and DRS Wildcats. The Storm reached the big game by upending North Shore, 8-1. For DRS, the road was a bit more treacherous. The Wildcats took on SAR last night, following the Sting’s 7-3 thrashing of Flatbush in the quarters and for most of the game looked as if they were primed for an upset. However, three goals in the final 6 minutes of the game would spell the downfall for the Sting, as Sophomore Yitzy Yudin’s game winner helped DRS to a 4-2 win and another championship appearance. The championship will be Sunday March 12, location to be determined.
Varsity Hockey will be next as both semifinals take place tomorrow night. TABC, the #1 seed will take on #5 SAR. The Sting advanced following a 7-1 upset over YDE, the only hosting quarterfinalist to lose. The Sting and Storm split the regular season series, with each winning on the other’s home court. In the other semifinal, #2 DRS will host #3 Frisch. DRS shut out rival HAFTR 5-0 in their quarterfinal matchup and will get a shot at redemption against the Cougars who shut them out 4-0 in DRS during the regular season. Much like JV, a repeat of last year’s championship is still in play, but would take victories from TABC and Frisch to set that up.
In Basketball, Girls JV becomes the first to know its finalists, as SAR and Frisch both took massive wins in the semis and will meet up in a rematch of last year’s semifinal contest, won by the eventual champion Cougars. Frisch has continued its dominance, winning both games over the Sting this season. In Varsity, the semifinals are set, as Frisch will host HAFTR tonight and SKA will take on Flatbush tomorrow night.
Moving over to Boys, in Varsity the full set of semifinals will be determined tonight. At 7:45 West #2 SAR hosts East #3 DRS with the winner to take on East #1 North Shore, 59-49 winners over JEC. In the other side of the bracket, West #1 Frisch takes on East #4 Flatbush with Magen David waiting in the wings after drubbing TABC 59-46.
Finally in Boys JV, TABC and SAR advance to the semis where they will meet this Thursday. SAR advanced with an overtime upset over DRS while TABC dominated HAFTR. Ramaz ended North Shore’s bid for a repeat last night, defeating the Lions 51-46 and await the winner of last night’s contest between East #1 Magen David and West #5 Frisch.
Championship Sunday is drawing ever closer in all leagues and the Yeshiva Sports Network is the only place to experience the hockey and basketball finals. For the 3rd time, YSN will be streaming all four championships with myself and an all-star cast of coaches and athletes breaking down each contest. With views reaching into the 5-figures, I’s a prime opportunity for you to become a sponsor, just like Yeshiva League Pass.

Stay tuned to YLP for all up to date playoff information, then watch on YSN as our 2022-2023 Winter champions are crowned.

From the ArtScroll website:
Chessed. It’s in your hands. (And in your smile. And mouth. And feet. And in countless other ways.) From the Talmud to the Rambam to the Chofetz Chaim – and many other Torah sources – we learn how to deal with even the most challenging and turbulent times: la’asok b’Torah v’chessed. To busy ourselves with Torah learning and performing acts of chessed, kindness, to others.
Of course, we all try to be “nice” to others, but to fill our days and nights with chessed? Many of us imagine that to be the task of the great men and women who head up the organizations, create the gemachs, raise the millions to feed and clothe the impoverished. But while that is certainly vital, Living Chessed shows us how we “ordinary” people can also be “gedolim in chessed”— just by grabbing the countless opportunities to help our fellow Jews.
In Living Chessed, Rabbi Avrohom Asher Makovsky shares with us many Torah sources that talk about chessed, inspirational insights and guidance and, above all, stories of how chessed – even something as small as a compliment, a smile, or a hug – can transform the lives of both the one giving and the one receiving the chessed. In brief, readable chapters, we will discover the best segulah of all – not hurting someone’s feelings. We will read about how the Tzemach Tzedek “opened” the gates of heaven – by racing home to help another Jew in business. How a man fulfilled his dream of having children, by opening a free-loan gemach. We will enjoy – and learn from! — story after story of people who took the opportunity to help someone, often with something as simple as a hug, a compliment, or even just a smile.
Living Chessed will show us how we can, indeed, “live chessed” throughout our days, enriching the lives of others. And enriching our own lives as well.

Thanks Nachum!
Playoff action has hit a fever pitch as every postseason has reached at least the Quarterfinal stage. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, a freshman powers Flatbush over HAFTR in Varsity Basketball, the semifinals are set in Girls Varsity Basketball and in JV Hockey, a battle “for pride” and, no…we’re not “Lyin”. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg
Varsity and JV Hockey each had one game played this week, both 1 goal affairs. In TABC, the #1 seeded Storm survived a scare against 8th seed Kushner, defeating the Cobras in Teaneck, but it did not come easy. Tied 1-1 until the 2 minute mark of the third, Storm Junior Shay Fields netted the go-ahead and game-winning goal. In dramatic fashion, the Storm would need to kill off a late Kushner powerplay, but did so and will now await the winner of tomorrow night’s contest between #4 YDE and #5 SAR, in Brooklyn. The other contest tomorrow night will feature the 5-Towns rivalry with #2 DRS hosting #7 HAFTR, the winner to face #3 Frisch with a spot in the championships on the line.
In JV, the drama took on more of a comeback variety out in the Battle for the Pride between the 5 seed MTA Lions and 4 seed North Shore Lions. North Shore jumped out to a 3-0 lead on 2 goals by sophomore Elijah Kule, but MTA would not go quietly, scoring twice to close the gap. However, they would not get any closer, as North Shore now advances to play TABC this Thursday night in Teaneck. Also Thursday night will be the remaining quarterfinal contest with #3 SAR hosting #6 Flatbush, the winner to play #2 DRS.
Moving over to basketball, where the quarterfinals in varsity are all set. The JEC Thunder upset #4 Hillel in Overtime 57-55, Senior Michayel Cornick with the grab and lay in down low at the overtime buzzer to represent the difference. JEC will now move on face North Shore tomorrow night, the winner to play the winner of West #2 SAR and East #3 DRS. In the other bracket, the Flatbush Falcons took 21 points from Freshman Sam Jemal to outpace East #5 HAFTR 49-41. The Falcons will play West #1 Frisch next Tuesday night, the winner to play the winner of Magen David and TABC, taking place in Brooklyn next Tuesday.
In JV, by the time we have our next update, we will have reached the semifinals, as all four quarterfinals will be played by next Monday night. This Thursday, West #1 TABC will host East #4 HAFTR, the Hawks 59-45 winners over Flatbush this past Wednesday. The winner of that contest will get to watch Saturday night as DRS and SAR square off in Woodmere. In the other bracket, North Shore and Frisch advanced to the quarters with first-round victories on Wednesday. North Shore downed YDE 59-38 and will next take on Ramaz, while Frisch upended West #4 Hillel 65-53 and will square off with Magen David. Both contests will take place Monday with the winners to meet in the next round.
Finally, in Girls Varsity, the semifinals are set and will take place next Tuesday and Wednesday. Undefeated SKA continued their roll, scoring 77 in a rout over Ma’aynot and will face East #3 Flatbush. The Falcons traveled to Ramaz and ran away with a 55-38 victory and will face the Sonics next Wednesday. In the other semifinal, next Tuesday, West top seed Frisch, winners of a 12-point victory over HANC Will take on East #2 seed HAFTR, who narrowly defeated SAR in the quarterfinals.
Championship Sunday is drawing ever closer in all leagues and the Yeshiva Sports Network is the only place to experience the hockey and basketball finals. For the 3rd time, YSN will be streaming all four championships with myself and an all-star cast of coaches and athletes breaking down each contest.

Thanks Nachum!
The playoffs are upon us as we count down the days until we crown our 2022-2023 Winter Sports champions. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, first round matchups are under way in almost all leagues. We’ll take you through a heavy week in basketball and a light week in hockey, but both equally impactful. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start off in Boys Varsity Basketball, which saw the most action over the past week. Six matchups took place Tuesday night to determine the final seedings. North Shore defeated DRS 55-34 to finish undefeated at 14-0 and take the top seed in the East. Unfortunately for DRS, Magen David took an 11 point win over TABC, meaning that the Warriors would take the East #2 seed while DRS would have to play a first-round matchup. The Wildcats squared off with East #6 Waterbury, defeating them 49-37 to advance to play the West #2 seed, the SAR Sting. SAR earned the West #2 seed by virtue of TABC’s loss, but could not earn the #1 seed as Frisch defeated Ramaz to take the West crown. Frisch will now await the winner of Flatbush and HAFTR, playing this Thursday night. Out West, Hillel earned the #4 seed and will face off with JEC tonight, with the winner heading to North Shore. In the remaining first-round matchup, TABC ensured that there will be a new champion, as the Storm rode 22 points from Netanel Benloulou to defeat Ramaz. Their reward, another matchup with Magen David.
In Boys JV Basketball playoffs, West 3 seed SAR knocked off MTA and will advance to face East #2 DRS. The other 3 first-round contests will all take place tomorrow night. West #4 Hillel will host Frisch with the winner to face Magen David. Out East, #4 HAFTR meets up with #5 Flatbush and #3 North Shore takes on #6 YDE with the winners moving on to play West winner TABC and #2 Ramaz in the quarterfinals.
In Boys Varsity Hockey, the last game of the regular season, YDE scored late in the 3rd period to force overtime against Flatbush, and then proceeded to end the Falcons season on a Jack Harary game winner with 19 seconds left in the extra session. As a result, the Thunder gained the #4 seed and will host the SAR Sting next Wednesday night. The winner will face the winner of tonight’s contest between #1 TABC and the other benefactor of YDE’s win, #8 Kushner. On the other side of the bracket, the first game of the playoffs has already taken place as Frisch scored 4 unanswered goals in the last 14 minutes to upend #6 HANC 5-2. They will now await the winner of next Wednesday night’s contest between #2 HAFTR and #7 DRS.
Over in JV, Flatbush succeeded where the Varsity could not, downing YDE to gain their entry into the postseason. They will square off with #3 SAR with the winner taking on #2 DRS. The other quarterfinal contest will take place Thursday night as #4 North Shore hosts #5 MTA with #1 TABC waiting in the wings.
As the playoffs roll on, stay tuned to Yeshiva League Pass and all of the YLP handles on Instagram for all the latest updates as all leagues approach their respective championships.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/RabbiFishekSchachteronJMintheAM02142023.mp3Nachum hosted Rabbi Fishel Schachter on this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss his latest ArtScroll release, “Did This Ever Happen to You?: Stories, Observations, and Humor from a World-Class Rebbi and Speaker.”
From the ArtScroll website:
A book to make us think. Make us laugh. And make us better.
Better parents, better people, better Jews.
Rabbi Fishel Schachter knows what happens in our lives. The little annoyances and the big challenges. The happiness and the angst. He knows what happens to us – because it often happens to him as well! And when “life” happens – the vanishing parking space, the bored kids on vacation, the last minute pre-Shabbos misadventures – he knows what we should do. Learn a lesson of hashgachah pratis. Think of a story that enhances our emunah. Discover an insight that puts everything in a different – more positive – light. Remember to thank Hashem for everything. And, of course, smile and find the joy in His plans for us.
In Did This Happen to You? Rabbi Schachter, a popular speaker, columnist and storyteller, combines practical advice in chinuch and middos development with anecdotes and stories that are always engaging and often laugh-out-loud funny. Did This Happen To You? touches on topics ranging from seeing hashgachah pratis in our lives to mitzvahs such as hachnasas orchim and giving tzedakah; from strengthening our bitachon to outlooks on tefillah.
No one tells a story quite like Rabbi Schachter, and in Did This Happen To You? he uses stories as an incredibly effective (and often funny!) means of guiding us through whatever challenges we are facing. So open this book and be prepared to laugh … and to learn.

From the book’s Amazon page:
WOULDN’T IT BE NICE TO HAVE A CHECKLIST TO GUIDE YOU WHEN YOU AREN’T SURE WHAT TO DO?After the death of her mother in 2020, personal organizer Rebekah Chaifetz Saltzman wished her family had had a checklist to help them navigate the shiva period. Once she sat down to write the list, she realized there were many checklists she wished she’d had on hand, both to streamline her own life and to help her clients.
That’s how Organized Jewish Life: The Essential Guide to Planning Jewish Holidays Events and Every Day was born.
This book offers practical advice and solutions on how to prepare for all Jewish lifecycle events, Jewish holidays and setting up your Jewish home. Since you don’t always know what you don’t know, Organized Jewish Life will help you not only get organized, but also to utilize your time better, become more informed and ask clearer questions when navigating challenging situations.
Organized Jewish Life is a great gift, and perfect for someone living on their own for the first time, couples about to get married, and those new to Judaism. It is also for the family who is reaching new milestones and wants to make those happy occasions less stressful, and stressful situations easier to manage.
You can use this book in tandem with the Organized Jewish Life: Shabbat and Holiday Planner.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/DrLebovicsonMintheAM02082023.mp3Nachum welcomed Dr. Edward Lebovics, Vice Chair for Clinical Affairs, Department of Medicine at New York Medical College, and member of Touro University, to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss “Medical Halachah Annual, Volume 1: The Pandemic and Its Implications,” a groundbreaking journal that delves into the intersection of halachah, medical ethics, and the pandemic.
Below is a press-release about it:
Mosaica Press, in partnership with Touro University and it’s New York Medical College, is set to release the Medical Halachah Annual, Volume 1: The Pandemic and Its Implications on March 6, 2023.
This groundbreaking journal, edited by Dr. Edward Lebovics, delves into the intersection of halachah, medical ethics, and contemporary medical issues. Through the examination of complex medical scenarios involving sensitive triage decisions, administering and withdrawing of ECMO, trust in medical and rabbinic authorities, and the application of halachic principles, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the ongoing pandemic and its far-reaching implications.
“The Jewish community suffered great loss and hardship during the pandemic but also learned much about confronting a medical crisis according to halachah,” says Dr. Lebovics, Vice Chair for Clinical Affairs, Department of Medicine at New York Medical College, and member of Touro University. “In this volume, we share, from rabbinic authorities and leading physicians, some of these lessons in areas such as assessing risk, dealing with medical uncertainty, and interactions between rabbis and physicians. We hope the broad Torah readership will find it enlightening. We’re already working on volume two.”
The Medical Halachah Annual includes essays on variety of topics, ranging from medical uncertainty in halachah to vaccine hesitancy in the Orthodox Jewish community, allocation of scarce resources and dishonest acquisition of potentially life-saving care. Additional topics covered include othering the Jews during both the Calamitous Black Death of the 14th Century and the COVID-19 Pandemic of the 21st Century.
The coronavirus presented its own unique challenges, requiring complex halachic reasoning and application of Jewish medical ethics to keep pace with the ever-changing medical situation and new questions as they arose. Featuring contributions from prominent experts in the field, including Rabbi Mayer Twersky; Rabbi Prof. Avraham Steinberg, MD; Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz;; Rabbi Dr. Jason Wiener, BCC; Rabbi Aaron E. Glatt, MD; Rabbi Ahron Lopiansky; Rabbi Mordechai Willig; Rabbi Yossi Sprung;; Zvi Ryzman; Sarah H.D. Becker, MD; Margot Lurie; and Edward C. Halperin, MD, MA, the Medical Halachah Annual promises to be a valuable resource for those interested in the dynamic interplay between religion and medicine.
This annual publication aims to fill a gap in the medical halachah literature and serve as a valuable resource for years to come.
“As leaders in medical education and the largest institution of higher education under Jewish auspices, Touro University is pleased to produce this journal that explores the connection between Jewish law and ethics and medical practice,” said Dr. Alan Kadish, Touro President.
The Medical Halachah Annual can be purchased at mosaicapress.com or at your local Jewish bookstore and is available for pre-ordering.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/StephenSavitskyonJMintheAM02082023.mp3Nachum welcomed Stephen J. Savitsky, President of Bnai Zion Foundation and former Chairman and President of the Orthodox Union, to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss his new Feldheim Publishers release “Kan Tzipor Inspiring Stories On Seizing “Magic Moments” Of Opportunity To Do Chessed.”
From the Feldheim site:
Believe it or not, Hashem might present you with your greatest opportunities to do acts of chessed when you are least prepared — when you must seize the moment or it will be lost forever.
This book is a collection of true, riveting short stories about how people from all walks of life, in different locations and times, reacted to such “magic moments” of opportunity to do chessed in the most unexpected places — at a wedding, in a mall, while sitting shivah, in a supermarket, riding in a taxi, and in many other venues.
This life-changing book makes you realize that it is imperative to ask, in every situation you find yourself:
“Why did Hashem put me in this very place at this very time? What chessed does Hashem expect me to do at this exact moment?”
These stories will train you to become what the author calls an “observant Jew,” someone constantly on the alert for magic moments of opportunity to do chessed.
This concept is learned from the mitzvah regarding a bird’s nest (kan tzipor), popularly known as shilu’ach ha-kan. The Hashem of shooing away the mother bird before taking her eggs or nestlings cannot be orchestrated, but happens “Ki yikarei kan tzipor lefanecha ba-derech” (Devarim 22:6) — unexpectedly, when we go about our normal daily activities — and earns blessings and long life. So treat yourself to a great read, be inspired by these kan-tzipor-moment stories, grab such moments for yourself — and look forward to your own incredible blessings.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
After four long months of competition, we have finally reached the last day of the regular season for the 2022-2023 Winter Sports year. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, top seeds in Varsity Basketball’s East and West find their fates intertwined, JV Basketball has their bracket figured out, and Varsity and JV hockey all come down to one final game to cement the playoff picture. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
In Boys Varsity Basketball, North Shore clinches the East crown, taking wins over HAFTR and Magen David. The Lions will know tonight who will join them as an East bye as both DRS and Magen David are in action. DRS will need a win over North Shore or a Magen David loss to TABC to clinch the East #2 seed. It’s been a rough week for Magen David, also losing to SAR to drop to 9-4 taking their ability to clinch a bye on their own out of their hands. SAR will also be at the mercy of another team to determine what their seed will be. Having finished at 12-2, they will need to await Frisch’s contest with Ramaz tonight to see whether they will be the West #1 or #2 seed, that by virtue of Frisch sweeping the season series with SAR 58-48 this week. A Frisch win will give the Cougars the West crown, but a loss could possibly drop them to #3 if TABC can beat Magen David. While so much still remains up in the air going into the last day, we do know that the 6 teams that we’ve mentioned, in addition to Flatbush, HAFTR and Waterbury in the East and Hillel, JEC and Ramaz in the West will all be moving on to post-season action starting next week.
In JV Basketball, the regular season has reached its conclusion and the playoff bracket has been determined. Magen David joins TABC finishing with a perfect 10-0 record after dominating HANC as the two win the East and West, respectively. DRS and Ramaz each picked up wins on the week as well to finish at 8-2 and will be the #2 seeds from the respective divisions and will earn byes as well. In the East, #3 North Shore will take on YDE, while #4 HAFTR will host Flatbush. YDE defeated Flatbush 70-64 to tie their season series and their record, but missed out on the tiebreak by 2 points, by virtue of the Falcons’ 8 point win over them earlier this year. Out West, SAR’s late-season slide sees them at #3 hosting MTA while Hillel will host Frisch in the last quarterfinal matchup.
Moving over to hockey where the focus of both JV and Varsity will each come down to one game to complete the playoffs. In Varsity, TABC locked up the #1 seed with a 7-3 win over Kushner and DRS took the 2 seed with a win over HAFTR and a YDE loss to HANC. The Frisch Cougars will wind up in the 3 seed and HAFTR, taking two losses on the week will drop to 7th. 4th, 5th, 6th and 8th will be decided tonight when YDE takes on Flatbush. SAR, HANC and YDE will all fit into 4-6 in some order depending on the outcome, but Flatbush is fighting for their playoff lives and only a win will do the trick. The Falcons have taken a possible 5 points in 3 games, with wins over Ramaz and Solomon Shechter and a 1-1 tie to Rambam, putting them in position to jump Kushner for the 8th and final spot in the postseason. A YDE win will give them the 4 seed and a home playoff date with SAR, by virtue of the Sting’s 3-2 late game win over MTA last night.
In JV, that same matchup will determine the final participant as YDE looks to play spoiler to Flatbush’s attempt at the postseason. The Falcons took a win over Rambam to put them into a tie with Frisch, who also needed a late goal to top MTA this week 3-2. A Flatbush win, tie or overtime loss will get them into the playoffs over the Cougars to face #3 SAR, the winner to play #2 DRS. In the other half of the bracket #4 North Shore will meet #5 MTA with the winner earning a date with #1 TABC
As we come down to playoff time, stay tuned to Yeshiva League Pass and all of the YLP handles on Instagram for all the latest information regarding who is in, who is out and who is going where once the knockout stages begin.

From The Emunah Connection website:
The Emunah Connection is a program to refresh the flavor of traditional Judaism.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
With everyone back from winter break, the next two weeks become the most action-packed and intense of the season. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, TABC pulls the JV double as both hockey and basketball clinch the West top seeds, and the Varsity Basketball West gets thrown wide open as the clinching window slams shut. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start off in JV Hockey where the West crown was decided this past week following a pair of TABC wins over Frisch and SAR. The 4-1 win over SAR, the more important of the two games as it put the Storm out of reach of the Sting, who will finish 2nd in the West at 8-2. As a result, TABC has also clinched the #1 overall seed in the upcoming playoffs and will leave the DRS-North Shore battle on Thursday night to decide the #2 seed, but also the 3 and the 4 seed as both teams and SAR can shift depending on the outcome. The 4-0 win over Frisch served to put Frisch’s season on the brink as MTA captured a playoff berth leaving the Cougars fighting with Ohr Yisroel and Flatbush, all at 8 points, however, with the Falcons having the easier schedule down the stretch.
The JV Basketball Storm followed suit with their undefeated hockey bretheren, finishing off their undefeated regular season with wins over Heschel and SAR. The victory over SAR, a 51-47 Overtime thriller also served to knock SAR further down the charts, who end their season on a 3-game slide with a subsequent 13-point loss to Frisch and, depending on how Ramaz and Hillel finish off their seasons against JEC and MTA, could push them out of a first-round bye altogether. Speaking of MTA and JEC, the Lions and Thunder are in a race for the 6th seed in the West with an MTA win or JEC loss giving MTA that spot. In the East, Magen David has already clinched the 1 seed, but there is still plenty of uncertainty as DRS, North Shore and HAFTR fight for 2-4 and Flatbush, YDE and Rambam are in a race for 5th and 6th.
Moving over to Varsity Basketball where now only one undefeated team remains, that being the North Shore Lions, on the heels of Frisch’s 59-45 drubbing of SAR this past week. An SAR win would have put the finishing touches on the top seed, however, the loss now kicks the door wide open for Frisch and TABC to enter the conversation as SAR will face Magen David and Frisch in 2 of their final 3 contests. A Frisch win on Thursday and the Cougars will control their own destiny at the top of the West heading into Ramaz next Tuesday, depending on SAR-Magen David tonight and TABC- Magen David next Tuesday. Certainly not an enviable schedule for Magan David, who also face North Shore this week and can either pull themselves into a race for the top seed in the East or fall out of competition for a bye altogether. Meanwhile, we now know the remaining teams in the West playoff hunt as JEC’s 60-54 win over Heschel locked up berths for JEC and Ramaz to join SAR, Frisch, TABC and Hillel in the postseason.
Finally, in Boys varsity hockey, Frisch knocks off SAR 4-3 to ensure that the race at the top of the West stays between two teams, as the Cougars stay ahead of TABC, winners of an 8-2 contest with Kushner. However, Frisch only has a one-point lead, meaning TABC controls their own destiny with a game in hand, including a contest against HANC and a return bout with Kushner on the horizon.
As we come down to playoff time, stay tuned to Yeshiva League Pass and all of the YLP handles on Instagram for all the latest information regarding who is in, who is out and who is going where once the knockout stages begin.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/NeubergersonJMintheAM01262023.mp3Nachum interviewed Leah and Roy Neuberger about the new ArtScroll publication, “From Sinai to Yerushalayim: Our Jewish Journey Continues: The Story of Roy and Leah Neuberger,” written by Rabbi Nachman Seltzer.
From the ArtScroll website:
Twenty years ago, Roy (Yisroel) and Leah (Linda) Neuberger electrified the Jewish world with Roy’s book, From Central Park to Sinai, sharing the story of their return to Torah and Jewish life. Now, bestselling author Rabbi Nachman Seltzer joins them on their fascinating journey, revealing new and unusual parts of the Neuberger’s lives, both before they became observant and in the two decades since they shared their story and became world-traveling ambassadors of Torah.
Born to wealth and privilege, educated in the most prestigious schools and, eventually, married to a wonderful woman, Roy Neuberger should have been a contented, happy man – and yet something was missing, always missing … until he found Torah. Under the gracious guidance of Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis and her family, Roy and Linda – now Yisroel and Leah – opened their hearts to Yiddishkeit, their neshamahs to Torah, and their homes to Jews searching for their heritage.
We will follow Roy as he faces down thugs in the subway and anti-Semites in the newsroom where he worked. We will travel with the Neubergers as they bring Hashem’s message to a forest in Russia and comfort wounded soldiers in an Israeli hospital. We will join them as they host thousands of Jews yearning for meaning, taking them in for a Shabbos meal, for a week or, in some cases, for years.
If you already read From Central Park to Sinai, be prepared to reexperience the drama of Roy and Leah’s return and follow them in their busy and fulfilling lives since that book was published. And if you did not read Roy Neuberger’s first book — prepare to discover an adventure-filled life, full of surprises and inspiration.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ItzhakLevitGBAonJMintheAM01252023.mp3Nachum interviewed Givati Brigade Association (GBA) Chairman Itzhak Levit in advance of the Association’s 40th anniversary celebration of the reconstitution of the Givati Brigade. Read more about it below:
The Association honors the legacy of the IDF’s storied Givati Brigade through educational programs, exhibitions at its Yoav fortress, and memorial initiatives for the brigade’s fallen heroes. One of the reasons Givati is such a special brigade is the family-like relationship between soldiers and their commanders, and the group supports the financial and social needs of active-duty soldiers so that they can focus on defending Israel, and helps set recent veterans up for their future through academic and mentoring opportunities.
In February the Association will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the reconstitution of the Givati Brigade.
Some of the interesting initiatives GBA helps current soldiers with are financial and food-product support for the families of active duty soldiers who are food-insecure. Another and possibly even more interesting, is the work GBA does for soldiers who come from more extreme Charedi backgrounds, who due to their choice to serve in the IDF become estranged from their families. While not meeting the definitions of “lone soldiers” these defenders of Israel are left without their childhood homes and families. GBA helps them to find suitable housing, adoptive family-like relationships and find their way in a society many grew up on the outside of.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/WillieHochmanandDavidGantsharonJMintheAM01252023.mp3Nachum was joined by Willie Hochman and David Gantshar, CEO & Owner of Shepherd Search Group, to discuss Shepherd recently acquiring The Joel Paul Group. You can read a press release about it below.
Friends:
We are very pleased to share with you the acquisition of the Joel Paul Group by Shepherd Search Group effective January 1st. As we reflect upon the last thirty-six years since our formation, we have come a long way. What started as a local recruitment firm in metropolitan New York has become one of the most successful executive search & recruitment firms serving Jewish nonprofits across the entire United States. As successful as we have been, there was this gnawing feeling that something was missing.
After more than a year of research into joint ventures, mergers, partnerships and a variety of shared service offerings, we recently decided the best path for our organization was to be acquired by Shepherd Search Group. Formed in 2001, the Shepherd Search Group of Companies are run by a dear friend and a respected industry veteran, David Gantshar. Why Shepherd? There aren’t many firms we spoke to that shared our culture, values and our burning desire to assist nonprofit organizations. In Shepherd we found a keen partner that understood the critical role non-profit organizations play in helping us build a better society. Shepherd’s offering as a Talent Solutions firm expands our suite of services to include not just executive search & recruitment but also interim & contract staffing, (RPO) recruitment process outsourcing, organizational development & consulting, training and performance coaching, HR solutions, and a host of on-site services. With twenty offices from California to New York as well as select international locations in Jerusalem, Manchester (UK), Dubai and Taipei; Shepherd is truly the partner we have been looking for. Their desire to ensure our team remained intact was critical in our evaluation and Shepherd’s focus on new media and use of the “Shepherd Studio” presented us with a unique opportunity to ensure the needs of our clients would be met in ways we had never considered. Quite frankly, that “gnawing feeling” is gone.
We are now one team and super excited about our future. If you’d like to learn a little more about Shepherd, please feel free to visit https://lnkd.in/eB7CikTk
As we expand our service offering with the same team you have come to trust, we are thrilled to now be backed by Shepherd. Their use of technology, commitment to service, two-shift operation (thereby reducing time-to-fill) and vast candidate selection is simply unparalleled. We’re as excited as we were when we opened our doors thirty-six years ago, and you can count on us to assist with all of your Talent Solution needs.
The Joel Paul Group website www.joelpaul.com will continue to list client jobs and accept applications and prospect inquiries. Feel free to call us at any time. We’re here to support you and your organization.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/SimmyAllenYadVashemonJMintheAM01242023.mp3Nachum hosted Simmy Allen, Head of the International Media Section, Communications Division, at Yad Vashem, on this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss their new display, “The Yad Vashem Book of Names of Holocaust Victims.” Read more below:
On January 26, 2023, in the lead-up to International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, Yad Vashem will be inaugurating a unique display at UN Headquarters in NY – The Yad Vashem Book of Names of Holocaust Victims. The Book will be on display for 3 weeks, and will then travel to Jerusalem where it will remain on permanent display at Yad Vashem, on the Mount of Remembrance.
During the Holocaust, the Nazis endeavored to obliterate the identity of each and every Jewish man, woman, and child. Since the 1950s Yad Vashem has worked tirelessly to gather the names of the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust. To date, Yad Vashem has gathered names in a decades long project that continues to this day. The “Book of Names” memorializes each of the 4,800,000 individuals whose names are commemorated in Yad Vashem’s Hall of Names. Every name, birth date, hometown and place of death is clearly printed on the meter-high pages, illuminated by a gentle strip of light that lies between each page. The monumental size of the book – 58 “volumes” of 140 pages each, 500 names per page, measuring 2 meters high and 14 meters in circumference – attests to the collective, immeasurable loss to the entire Jewish people, and to humanity. The blank pages of the book’s final volume, symbolize the names still to be redeemed, recorded and memorialized in perpetuity by Yad Vashem.
Hope this gives you a little more background. More about the Central Database of Holocaust Victims’ Names is online, and we of course have experts who can explain about the expertise used to gather the names in this vital mission, about the importance of this commemorative initiative and about the book itself.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Thanks Nachum!
As winter break rolls on, a handful of games are on the slate that will kick off the final weeks of the Winter sports regular season. Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, we set the stage for the stretch run in basketball and hockey. All that and more, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start off with the largest slate of the last 2 weeks, Varsity Basketball. North Shore took another step toward the East crown, taking a 40-30 win off Waterbury to improve to 11-0 on the season. The Lions hold a two game lead on Magen David with three games to play. Waterbury would rebound with a win over Magen Abraham to even their record at 6-6 and put them on the brink of a playoff berth. A Waterbury win or YDE loss will give the Wolfpack the 6th and final East spot. Out West, MTA downed Kushner 46-33 behind 17 points from Gavriel Rudman. The West also has one spot left up for grabs, but can be taken care of with a JEC win or Ohr Yisroel loss. The two will face on February 7th.
Moving over to JV where one game was played, but one with a major effect on the West playoff outlook. Ramaz knocked SAR from the ranks of the undefeated, downing the Sting 56-50. The result leaves TABC as the only undefeated team out West at 8-0 with SAR at 7-1 and Ramaz at 7-2. For SAR, they now find themselves in limbo as to the first-round, as they play TABC on Thursday night. A win can give SAR the division title, however, a loss would put them in a potential tie with the Rams, meaning that SAR could slip from a bye all the way down to having to play a first-round game in only a two-week stretch.
In Girls Varsity, Ramaz and SAR both picked up wins. Both teams are set for the postseason, as the West teams are wrapped up with Frisch and Maayanot joining them. Out East, one spot remains, but can be wrapped up with a HANC win over North Shore next Tuesday.
In Varsity hockey, SAR avenged their earlier loss to Ramaz, blanking the Rams 7-0, officially eliminating Ramaz from playoff contention and keeping a first-round home game in clear focus in Riverdale. The Sting will face Frisch Thursday night as both battle for position in the upcoming postseason. Kushner and TABC will both do the same tomorrow night as Kushner looks to improve their standing and keep their playoff hopes alive as they battle with MTA and Flatbush for the final playoff berths.
JV Hockey begins an important stretch this week as well, as Frisch faces TABC on Thursday. A TABC win would put the Storm in position to clinch the West with a win over SAR next week and would cripple Frisch’s playoff hopes as they battle with Flatbush and Ohr Yisroel for the last berth.
For a more in- depth look at the playoff races in JV and Varsity Hockey, keep tuned to Yeshiva League Pass for an interview with yours truly on Yeshiva League Face-Off hosted by Josh Kass, dropping this week. We dive into both leagues and tear down all possibilities with the remaining matchups on the other side of the break.

From the YadL’Olim website:
During his time as a Knesset member, Rabbi Dov Lipman opened the doors of his office to English-speaking Olim, working to assist them individually and to advance their rights as a community. Rabbi Lipman founded Yad L’Olim to continue serving as a voice in the Israeli government for Olim from all backgrounds. Rabbi Lipman and his government relations team are driving policy changes to provide immigrants with the tools that they need to succeed in Israel.
Aside from government relations, Yad L’Olim is available to help Olim from all nationalities navigate complex government bureaucracy in partnership with our affiliates. We travel to cities throughout Israel to meet with Olim and work to solve their individual and communal challenges. In March 2022, Yad L’Olim opened a special department to provide guidance to the tens of thousands of Olim expected to arrive in Israel from Ukraine. Our Ukrainian speaking staff members assist these new Olim with employment, finding a place to live, and serving as their advisors and guides throughout the process of getting settled into their new lives in Israel.

Start-Up Nation Central is a non-profit organization that connects Israeli innovation to the world in order to help international entities solve global challenges. Immersed in the Israeli technology ecosystem, we provide a platform that nurtures business growth and generates partnerships with corporations, governments, investors, and NGOs to strengthen Israel’s economy and society. You can read a press-release concerning the information they discussed in the interview below.
Start-Up Nation Central Summarizes 2022:
Funding brought forward; time between seed and A round investments was cut in half; Israel’s cyber sector suffered a serious decline in investment;
Start-Up Nation Central insights into the drop in investments across the Israeli high-tech industry:
Tel Aviv – Start-Up Nation Central, together with the SNPI think tank, published its 2022 annual summary of the Israeli high-tech industry based on analysis of data from the Start-Up Nation Finder innovation business knowledge platform.
The total volume of investment in 2022 plummeted by almost one-half – from an unprecedented USD 27 billion in 2021 to some USD 15.5 billion in the past year. This phenomenon is not unique to Israel; for the sake of comparison, investments in Silicon Valley high-tech companies declined by 40%. The overall number of funding rounds in 2022 also declined to 826 compared to 1,103 rounds in the previous year.
However, looking at data for the year as a whole does not tell the full story. By looking more closely, we can see the initial signs of a global slowdown. In light of 2022’s financial market downturn, the decline in total investments for most types of funding rounds is not surprising; what is surprising is the seed investments recorded an increase in 2022.
Seed investment in Israeli startups in 2022 increased by 22% compared to 2021, or from USD 1.3 to 1.6 billion. These figures are especially surprising when we take into account the decrease in the number of startups (which we reported in previous reports) that would presumably have led to a decline in the total value of seed round investment.
Two factors contributed to the rise in seed rounds. The first is the shift from late-stage investment to earlier stages. Investors who traditionally invested only in later stage companies are investing at earlier stages in company life cycles. This avoids the need for fund raising in ‘down round’ later.
The second factor contributing to the rise in the number of seed rounds is the increase in the number of investors per round. Between 2019 and 2022, the average number of investors in each round at this stage almost doubled. The most significant increase occurred in 2022 when on average one additional investor was added to each round compared to 2021, bringing the rate to 3.5 participants per round.
How did the decrease in funding rounds affect Israeli companies?
The global and local decline in funding is linked to global macroeconomic shocks, in particular rising interest rates. This is a broad, prominent, and much-publicized trend, but another less-visible trend has also emerged: statistical analysis of “traditional” investment rounds in the Israeli high-tech industry indicates that even correcting for the effect of the global markets, 2022 would have ended with a decline in investments regardless.
This insight emerges from analyzing the timespan between seed and A rounds in the Israeli high-tech industry. Based on past data, we conclude that only 40% of Israeli companies that raised a seed round succeeded in raising A-round funding. Startups that do raise A-round funding take an average of three years to reach this milestone.
This analysis shows that in the three half-years, starting in 2021, the rate of A-round funding was higher than forecasted.
Essentially, companies that were expected to raise investment funding during the second half of 2022, advanced the round to the high-growth period of 2021 and the first half of 2022. Thus, the time between rounds was shortened.
Sectors: Cyber suffered the biggest decline, Agri-Food Tech remained stable
Additional analysis of Start-Up Nation Finder 2022 data focused on companies in five key sectors: Cyber, Fintech, ClimateTech, AgriFood-Tech, and Life Sciences and Health. In comparison to 2021, a decline was recorded across all but the AgriFood-Tech sector, both in the number of funding rounds and the overall investment amount. There was a 24% average decrease in the number of funding rounds and a 40% decrease in the overall investment amount. Only the AgriFood-Tech sector displayed a degree of stability with an increase in the number of funding rounds and the overall number of transactions stable compared to 2021.
Multi-year analysis of overall funding shows that the total amount of funding in the Cyber sector declined by more than 60% between 2021 and 2022, while there was a comparable decline of 42% in the entire ecosystem during this same period. Nonetheless, the number of funding rounds – which may actually be a more significant figure – remained stable in comparison to 2021.
Publicly traded companies – decline in value not due to performance
Given the decline in the value of publicly traded companies, which was more pronounced among high-tech companies, we examined whether this decline was linked to company performance in addition to the macroeconomic situation. Our analysis indicates that while an absolute majority of Israeli publicly traded companies recorded a decline in their market cap in 2022, most companies actually experienced an increase in revenues between the last quarter of 2021 and the third quarter of 2022.
The most prominent local and foreign investors of 2022
2022 data shows that the most active locally-based investors in Israel were the OurCrowd and Viola VC funds, that invested in 84 and 47 startups, respectively. They are followed by Pitango, which invested in 21 startups.
The leading foreign VCs operating in the Israeli ecosystem are Insight Partners, funding 40 startups, and the giant investment firm, Tiger Global Management – which only began operating in Israel in 2019 – investing in 26 startups last year. During its first years of activity in Israel, Tiger focused on more mature companies ready for IPO or unicorn valuation. In 2022, its investment strategy shifted to earlier stage companies: 13 A-round deals and three seed-round deals. For the sake of comparison, in 2021 the fund made 75% of its investments in Israel in C+ rounds, and the rest in B rounds.

Thanks Nachum!
Straight ahead on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, Magen David re-re-repeats as Satran Tournament champions, DRS jumps into the drivers seat in the East in Varsity hockey and two more teams punch playoff tickets in the JV Basketball West. All that and more coming up, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg!
They say that one good turn deserves another and in the case of the Magen David varsity basketball Warriors, another and another, as they took home their 4th straight Scott Satran Memorial Tournament Championship. Magen David knocked off the host HAFTR Hawks in the finals to capture the 2023 crown, after mowing down HANC, Frisch and Jewish Cultural during the first three days of the tournament and a come from behind win over North Shore in the semifinals. Asher Melamed put on a show and was rewarded for it with his 2nd straight tournament MVP award. In Yeshiva League action, a light week on the hardwood sees Flatbush clinch a playoff berth with a 50-30 win over defending champion Ramaz, but Ramaz edges toward clinching a berth of their own with a 62-48 win over Heschel last night for their 6th win, tying them for 5th in the West with JEC. SAR and Hillel also took wins on the week, punching their post-season tickets as they fight for high West seeds.
In JV, Ramaz and Hillel pick up wins over Kushner and Frisch, respectively, each earning their 6th win and a spot in the playoffs. The two are the odds-on favorites to host a first-round home game out West with Frisch, MTA and Hillel fighting for their right to play one of them.
And in Girls Varsity, SKA finishes off their perfect regular season, defeating Central 73-40 for their 12th win of the year. Daphna Steinmetz paced the Sonics with 23 in the victory.
Over to Hockey where DRS puts up a three-spot, taking wins over Solomon Schechter, Magen David and Flatbush to move to 9-2-0-1. The wins put them two points up on YDE, the Thunder faltering in a 6-1 loss to MTA in the Heights, dealing a blow to YDE’s division title hopes. Both teams have two games left and YDE the tiebreak, but the recent results see DRS on a hot streak, while YDE seems to be dropping back toward the rest of the division. In other action SAR downed HAFTR 9-3, putting SAR in prime position to make a run at a playoff home game. The Sting currently sit at 15 points, but will next contend with a Ramaz team who took a win off them earlier this season.
In JV, four teams have clinched post-season tickets heading into the break, as DRS defeats Flatbush to keep up with North Shore who takes a win off JEC. Out West, SAR defeats Ohr Yisroel 5-1, clinching berths for both them and TABC. The final two spots will come down to a four-team race of Flatbush, Ohr Yisroel, MTA and Frisch and will likely not be decided until the last day of the season.
With most schools on Yeshiva Break for the next two weeks, the Sports Update will be as well. We will be back in two weeks to set up and break down the final push toward the 2023 postseason.

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/DovHikindonJMintheAM01052023.mp3Nachum interviewed Dov Hikind, founder of Americans Against Antisemitism, about Israel Bitton’s “A Brief and Visual History of Antisemitism” and more.
From the Americans Against Antisemitism website:
Americans Against Antisemitism was formally launched in 2019 as a grassroots, non-partisan organization in response to the re-emergence of virulent antisemitism. Particularly concerning was the recognition that in its current iteration, antisemitic attacks are not just coming from the far-right but seem to be coming more and more from the far-left as well.
It has become a daily occurrence to hear about differing forms of attacks and public humiliation with violent undertones, property defacement using swastikas, and other forms of antisemitic vandalism. New York City for example, long known as a bastion for American Jewry, is no longer immune from daily antisemitism. Our community is feeling stunned and abandoned because not only is it increasing in nature but the increase in violent attacks is being met with silence or platitudes from elected officials and an absolute refusal to deal with the antisemitism that is being committed by other minority groups. And these events are not limited to New York City alone, as we’ve seen antisemitism spread rapidly throughout the United States and, again, throughout Europe.
Although Jews account for less than 2% of the American population, they account for more than 60% of all hate crime victims targeted for their religion. Jewish students on university campuses across the country are being shunned, marginalized, intimidated and forced to play down their Jewish identity while having anti-Zionist (and antisemitic) ideologies practically forced upon them. Nearly a third of the American Jewish population now fears wearing Jewish symbols in public, while a quarter avoids Jewish events and institutions in fear of being targeted for violence (AJC survey).
In other words, European-style antisemitism has landed with a resounding boom in America. And we won’t be silent or passive about it, so it’s time for good people from all walks of life to wake up and react to the canary in the coal mine before it’s too late.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Good morning everyone and a happy 2023!
Today on the first Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update of the calendar year, TABC varsity hockey begins the year the same way last year ended, DRS varsity basketball puts the pressure on the East with a 3-spot and Hillel enters the conversation in JV Basketball. All that and more, straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start out in Varsity Hockey where the start of 2023 turned out to be a continuation of 2022 for the newly minted team to beat, the TABC Storm. Within a week and a half, TABC has taken control of the West and the league, knocking off Frisch and DRS. The Storm completed the sweep of their 2022 finals nemesis Cougars by the score of 5-3 behind a hat trick from senior Eitan Adler. They would then follow that up with a 6-2 drubbing of the Wildcats behind two goals apiece from senior Eli Altman and Junior Shay Fields. As a result, TABC is 10-1, but currently sit one point behind Frisch, who have 21 points, by virtue of that OT loss to TABC 2 weeks ago. Both TABC and Frisch now head into the break, but for the Storm, the road to making March 2023 different than March of 2022 has already begun. In other action, only a week after appendix surgery, Rambam Junior Zevi Herskowitz makes an emergency appearance in the last 7 minutes of the Ravens’ contest with Magen David last night and single-handedly turns a 5-3 deficit into a 7-5 victory keeping Rambam’s slim playoff hopes alive. Also, HAFTR takes two wins on the week, knocking off YDE and HANC, stopping the Hurricanes 3-2 in overtime, on yet another Jacob Wolf extra-session winner.
In JV, TABC has also established themselves as the favorites, jumping out to an early lead on DRS en route to a 4-1 victory, and becoming the sole remaining undefeated team in the league. Frisch kept their playoff hopes alive defeating Ohr Yisroel 4-1, moving into a tie between the two teams, but both will likely need to win out, which include a game against MTA for both and contests with TABC for Frisch and SAR for Ohr Yisroel and have help out East to keep Flatbush away to have any shot at the postseason. MTA is now 3 points up on both after knocking off JEC last night.
Moving over to varsity basketball, they may not be leading the East, but the rate that DRS are knocking off opponents sure has put pressure on the rest of the league to keep pace down the stretch or fall behind. The Wildcats took three wins in 4 days, knocking off Rambam, Flatbush and HAFTR to end 2022, upping their record to 10-3. North Shore still leads the East at 10-0 and don’t seem likely to fall so far, even with a matchup with DRS looming at the end of the month, but for Magen David who, after losing to Flatbush this week, currently sit at 8-2, only one loss ahead and with games against undefeated North Shore and SAR and 2-loss TABC on the docket, one more false step could find the Warriors on the outside looking in at a first-round bye. In other action, TABC got their 9th win and thrust Hillel virtually out of the race for a West bye, with a 59-53 Overtime win behind 19 from Yaakov Salamon.
The Hillel JV Basketball heads in the opposite direction, though, taking wins on the week over Maor and JEC to improve to 5-3, locking up a playoff spot and thrusting them into the race for a first-round home game. A game with Frisch, also 5-3 this coming Sunday will determine which will be guaranteed that berth, but, spoiler, the two could potentially meet again at whomever wins come the first round of the playoffs.
With the playoff race heating up, keeping up to date is a must, and the best place for that is Yeshiva League Pass. For all the latest scores, standings and rankings for both hockey and basketball be sure to follow Yeshiva League Pass on Instagram.

Thanks Mattes!
Today on the last Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update of 2022, a light week that passed sets up a huge week ahead on all fronts as we expect the first sets of many playoff tickets to be punched before the turn of the calendar. We’ll take you through it all, straight ahead, good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
Only 10 games were played this last week, three of them in total on the hockey court but two major results that prove interesting for 2023. In Varsity, YDE continued their impressive season, knocking off Kushner, 6-4. Joe Dweck scored twice for the Thunder in their 8th win of the season. The Kushner loss officially clinches a playoff berth for Frisch ahead of their rematch with TABC tomorrow night in TABC. YDE can become the next team with a win over HAFTR on Thursday and a little help from Magen David, HANC and North Shore in their matchups this coming week. Speaking of HANC, the Hurricanes jumped to 11 points with a win over Solomon Schechter, two behind DRS who also gears up for a matchup with TABC on New Year’s Day.
In JV, only one score on the week, but a biggie at the top of the West. The TABC Storm turn a 2-1 deficit with 4 minutes left in the 3rd against SAR into a 4-2 win, behind two goals from Yoel Gellman in the process. TABC is now the sole undefeated team in the West, making this coming Sunday against DRS the battle of the two last undefeated teams in the league. In other action up ahead, Frisch and Ohr Yisroel will do battle Thursday night with both trying to keep pace with MTA and stay ahead of Flatbush for what is currently the 6th playoff spot. MTA will also be in action, taking on JEC on Monday night.
Moving over to the hardwood, where Boys games made up 6 of the remaining 7 games this past week. In Varsity, Frisch kept their hopes of a division title alive with a 69-65 win over Hillel last night. The Cougars now head into a long break with two games against undefeated division leading SAR after winter vacation. Hillel, now at 7-3, going 1-1 on the week having knocked off Heschel by 20 are still in the hunt but will need to knock off TABC tomorrow night to have a realistic shot at a bye once the postseason comes around. Out East, HAFTR defeated HANC 60-45 to move into a tie for 4th in the East with Flatbush at 6-4. HAFTR will square off with YDE and DRS in an effort to cement their postseason hopes before the winter break. Flatbush and Magen David square off tonight as the Warriors look to lock up their postseason berth, currently sitting at 8-1.
The Magen David JV team will look to do the same in the first game tonight, hoping to improve to 8-0 and clinch the top seed in the East. The Warriors knocked off North Shore this past week, dropping them two games behind Magen David. Now having beaten both DRS and North Shore in the past two weeks, Magen David controls their own destiny in wrapping up the East crown. Also taking wins this past week, HAFTR put up 91 points in a win over HANC, improving to 6-3 and Hillel improved to 3-3, knocking off Heschel 64-33.
Finally, in girls Varsity, HAFTR improved to 7-1, knocking off HANC 37-31 and keeping them in the hunt to battle SKA for the East when they meet Saturday night in HAFTR.
With the playoff race heating up, keeping up to date is a must, and the best place for that is Yeshiva League Pass. For all the latest scores, standings and rankings for both hockey and basketball be sure to follow Yeshiva League Pass on Instagram.

From the book’s Amazon page:
The Fundamentals of Playing with the Ball
All ideas and endeavors continually evolve. The game of basketball is no exception. In the 1940s, players weaved and took set shots, in the 1960s they picked and took jump shots, and today they hoist step-back threes off crossover dribbles. Although these new skills continue to transform the game, they remain the product of the fundamentals of how to dribble, pass, and shoot.
Player development ultimately requires athleticism as defined by agility and quickness, but it is the fundamentals that enable the less gifted player to neutralize his more skilled opponent. More importantly, it is the fundamentals that give kids, regardless of their skill level, the opportunity to compete and experience moments of triumph in front of family and friends.
Every child needs something that fuels feelings of self-worth. That “something” can be academic awards, playing the piano, growing tomatoes, or even making a game-winning foul shot. How children feel about themselves is fundamental to their psychological well-being. Therefore, children must not only have the opportunity to hear cheers in their classrooms but also to receive high fives from friends in the schoolyard. The amount of time parents spend in their driveways teaching their children how to shoot foul shots and layups is evidence that parents recognize that sports can be that “something.”
Through the use of illustration, Driveway Hoops attempts to help parents
and children learn the fundamentals of basketball, not to garner athletic scholarships, but to give all kids the opportunity to hear their friends and parents yell, “Good shot!”

https://f395d6.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/sloviejungreiswolffonjmintheam12222022.mp3Nachum was joined by Mrs. Slovie Jungreis-Wolff to discuss Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis’s, ob”m, ArtScroll release “Be a Blessing: A Guide to Living One’s Mission to the Fullest” that Rebbetzin Jungreis wrote before she passed away 6 years ago.
From the ArtScroll website:
“Be a blessing, my child, be a blessing.” They were words whispered from a father to his child as she confronted the horrors of the Holocaust. That child would grow up to be the world’s beloved Rebbetzin, Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis.
Be a Blessing shows us how she chose to “be a blessing” in the darkest of times and most horrific of places. In Bergen-Belsen. In a Swiss boarding school, as a penniless refugee, separated from her family. In a hospital bed in San Diego.
Written as she recovered from a difficult and painful accident, Be A Blessing sings out with faith, hope, even in times of despair.
In these pages we will hear Rebbetzin Jungreis speaking in Madison Square Garden, in a U.S. Airforce base, in a hospital room where she lies in terrible pain. We will hear her speaking to individuals looking for help or comfort. We will hear her speaking to herself, a young Holocaust survivor. And, most importantly, we will hear her speaking to each one of us, our concerns, our hopes and fears and questions.
From the Rebbetzin we will gain tips for a better marriage and for being better parents. We will learn how to find the mission our Creator has chosen for each individual, and how to make room for Hashem in our hearts. And we will discover how to take our personal mission, use it to “be a blessing” and convert darkness to rays of light.
In Jewish tradition, before parents journey to the next world, they bless their children. In this, the Rebbetzin’s final book before her passing, she has blessed all of us – because she felt all of G-d’s people were her children –with the greatest blessing of all: To be a blessing.

The true story was found in the Sefer “Menucha Vesimcha” and is a story so befitting this time of year and in general for us as a nation – it is a song of determination, faith, and miracles.

From the ArtScroll website:
Our Sages have told us that saying Bircas Hamazon – or, as we often call it, “bentching,” — especially if we say the words carefully from a bentcher, is so important that it brings wonderful things to our lives. In this exciting and fun-to-read book we’ll see how bentching properly saved a person’s life. How it protected a boy from his enemies and helped a man make a million-dollar business deal. We’ll discover who actually wrote the words of Bircas Hamazon and learn some of the halachos, the laws of bentching. Read the great stories and look at the gorgeous pictures. Then enjoy a super-delicious sandwich — and LET’S GET BENTCHING!

This week, due to circumstances beyond our control, Nachum presented Elliot and the latest YLS news on Thursday morning instead. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Good Morning Nachum.
Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update, the Route-4 Rivalry gets special showcase in Hockey and Basketball, SKA’s claim in Girls Varsity Basketball gets stronger, and the playoff race heats up in JV Hockey. All that and more, straight ahead. Chag Sameach, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start off with Varsity Basketball, where, while the East awaits their marquee matchup this coming week between North Shore and Magen David, the West had their top rivalry, TABC and Frisch on the docket on Saturday night, with both teams looking to put a dent in the other’s chances to vie for the division. Earlier in the season, the Cougars walked away with a 13 point victory, meaning that a sweep would all but end TABC’s chances in the West and leave them to battle for a quarterfinal matchup. However, the home team would not cooperate as Netanel Benloulou’s 30 points catapulted TABC to a 55-44 win, bringing TABC to 8-2 and keeping them in the mix as we head toward the back-stretch of the season. In other action, Waterbury pulls to 4-5 with an overtime upset over DRS and Hillel skates by Ramaz by 3, 69-66.
In Girls Varsity Basketball, Ramaz hands Frisch their first loss 57-56, leaving SKA as the only remaining unbeaten team, currently sitting at 9-0.
And in Boys JV, DRS suffers another close loss, dropping a 41-40 decision to North Shore, taking their second loss on the season, in a three day stretch, by a combined total of 3 points.
Moving over to hockey, ten months ago, the Frisch Varsity Cougars and TABC Storm met up in Frisch in a classic, with Eli Knapp putting home the overtime winner for a 2-1 victory in a game that would serve as the catalyst for Frisch down the stretch on their way to a championship. The two met up last night in Frisch, in overtime, in a 2-1 contest, but this time it would be the Storm, behind two goals from Ryan Brandwein pulling out the win and dropping the last undefeated team in the league. Frisch still controls their own destiny out west, having gained a point on the night, but the two will meet up again next Wednesday night with the West title potentially on the line before the turn of the calendar. Also on the week, SAR continues their up and down play, one week after defeating TABC, losing to last place Ramaz 3-2 and beating MTA 2-1. Harrison Agus with the game winner for the Rams, who would take two on the week, also defeating Magen David last night 5-3.
In JV Hockey, with DRS, TABC and SAR running away at the top of the league, the race for the remaining three playoff spots is heating up behind them. Two of the favorites to take spots, North Shore and Flatbush met up in a rematch from last week, where North Shore blanked the Falcons 2-0 in Great Neck. In this contest, however, Flatbush would get their revenge, but the Stars would still earn a point as the Falcons pulled off a 2-1 OT win. The victory pulls Flatbush to 3-3 and sets them up in a race to the finish with Frisch, Ohr Yisroel and MTA, the Lions a 6-1 winner over Kushner this week, upping their record to 4-2-1.

From the Artscroll page:
Reb Dovid Feinstein was born to one of the greatest poskei ha’dor of his time, Rav Moshe Feinstein zt’l, and he himself was a phenomenal masmid and ilui. Yet Reb Dovid carried his incomparable yichus and many accomplishments lightly, with a sweetness and humility that only emphasized his Torah greatness.
He was a quiet man, content to sit and learn day and night in the MTJ beis medrash that was his second home for eight decades. And yet, with the achrayus for the Klal that also defined him, he taught and influenced thousands, beloved by talmidim and virtual strangers alike for his compassion, deep understanding of human nature, and his gentle smile.
He was, as one of America’s leading roshei yeshivah said of him, a man who was “kulo Torah” – whose essence was Torah. “Kulo Torah” included care and consideration for others – the ability to understand the needs of the talmidim who were so drawn to him, of petitioners who came to him pleading for tefillos and berachos, of shoppers who stopped him in grocery store aisles with halachic questions, and of his people, his neighbors and friends on his beloved Lower East Side.
Reb Dovid is a book about the many aspects of Torah greatness that a person can achieve. A book that helps us achieve greatness as well.

Nachum hosted Rabbi Paysach Krohn on this morning’s JM in the AM to explore his latest ArtScroll release “The Grandeur of the Maggid: Resplendent Stories of Inspiration and Elevation.”
From the ArtScroll site:
Did you know that you can sometimes find angels (well, human angels) in a beachfront restaurant?
Would you believe that from the the ruins of the building in Surfside could come an unbelievable story of kavod haTorah?
Have you ever really understood the remarkable miracle of Danish Jewry’s escape from the Nazis?
In The Grandeur of the Maggid, Rabbi Paysach Krohn’s tenth collection of inspiring stories, the “American Maggid” outdoes himself, bringing us true stories that elevate as they entertain, that illuminate as they inspire. He finds the grandeur in the lives of ordinary Jews – because he knows there is no such thing as an “ordinary” Jew! And, of course, he finds the grandeur in the lives and deeds of our Torah and communal leaders, with absorbing biographical sketches of Rav Chaim Kanievsky, Rav Yechiel Yaakov Weinberg, Rav Nota Greenblatt, Rav Moshe Neuman zecher tzaddikim liverachah .
Describing his mentor, Rav Sholom Schwadron – the famed and beloved “Maggid of Jerusalem” — Rabbi Krohn says: “He could make people cry and make them laugh, but more than anything else, he made them listen. And afterward, people would walk away saying, ‘He was talking to me.’”
That was true then, in the holy, winding streets of Yerushalayim. And it is true now as well, in our lives, as “The American Maggid” makes us cry and laugh – and as he talks to our very souls.

Every Tuesday morning at 7:20 ET Nachum Segal presents Elliot Weiselberg on JM in the AM to deliver the Yeshiva League Sports (YLS) Update. This week, due to circumstances beyond our control, Nachum presented Elliot and the latest YLS news on Thursday morning instead. Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Good Morning Nachum and Mazal Tov to you and your family.
Today on the JM in the AM Sports Update, after a very eventful week in the Weiselberg household, a one-day delay only adds to our coverage. Straight ahead, SAR returns to the conversation in Varsity Hockey, Magen David and North Shore get ready for a showdown in Boys Varsity Basketball, and SAR and TABC continue their undefeated seasons in both JV sports. All that and more, straight ahead. Good morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll start out in Varsity Basketball where North Shore finds itself in a very unfamiliar position over the last few years. Hot off of last year’s JV championship the Junior-heavy squad rolls into mid-December at 8-0, despite a scare against Magen Abraham this past week, a 56-52 Overtime win for the Stars. Now, North Shore gears up to square off against the other Magen, the 8-1 Magen David Warriors, a squad full of Juniors still stinging from last year’s overtime championship loss. The Warriors have a battle-tested schedule off late, taking victories over Flatbush and DRS. The two teams will meet up for the only showdown this season next Wednesday, in a battle that could either determine the Eastern Conference, with a North Shore win, or bust it wide open if Magen David is victorious. In other action Frisch moves to 8-1, knocking off Heschel, and will now gear up to play SAR tomorrow night, in a battle that could do the same for the West.
Speaking of SAR, the Sting Varsity Hockey team has shrugged off their slow start and taken 5 of 6 points from top ranked opponents in the last 10 days. Following a 5-2 win over HANC and an overtime 5-4 loss to undefeated Frisch, the Sting rolled into TABC, against whom SAR suffered a 4-1 loss less than two weeks ago. However, the Sting would have their revenge as, tied late in the 3rd, Junior Asher Rudman would put home the game-winner for the 4-3 SAR victory, knocking the Storm from the ranks of the undefeated and placing the Sting 3 points behind the Storm for 2nd place in the West. In other action, Flatbush suffers a pair of close losses, taking a pair of 4-3 losses to HAFTR in overtime on Saturday night and to rival Magen David last night at home, both results come about after defeating Magen David in Magen David, last week, by the score of, you guessed it, 4-3.
Onto JV where SAR and TABC control the West in both sports. In Basketball, the Storm dropped Hillel to improve to 7-0 while SAR last played two weeks ago, but currently sit at 5-0. Both teams are gearing up for battles with 5-1 Frisch, SAR tonight and TABC Saturday night. Wins by both teams would cement the two as the above-and-away favorites and set the stage for the division crown on January 26th when both teams meet in SAR for the last game of the regular season. In Hockey, SAR is 6-0, following a 2-0 shutout of Frisch, 2 points ahead of TABC at 5-0. The two teams will know who has the advantage much earlier than their basketball counterparts as the two are set to square off next Thursday in SAR as both teams next contest. However, For TABC it’s the beginning of a brutal stretch, as they follow it up with DRS on New Year’s Day and Frisch and SAR again on the other side of the break.
With the Yeshiva League back, keeping up to date is a must, and the best place for that is Yeshiva League Pass. For all the latest scores, standings and rankings for both hockey and basketball be sure to follow Yeshiva League Pass on Instagram.
And that was your JM in the AM Sports Update, I’m going to try to get some sleep.

Tune in for the latest Yeshiva League Spring Sports information, as well as, the occasional update on other sports happenings in the Jewish world. The transcription for this morning’s update is below.
Good Morning Nachum!
Today on the Tuesday Morning JM in the AM Sports Update Cross-conference matchups highlight the week in Varsity Hockey, while intra conference rivalries take center stage in Boys Varsity Basketball and Frisch and SKA stay hot in Girls Varsity Basketball. All that and more straight ahead. Good Morning, I’m Elliot Weiselberg.
We’ll open up with Girls Varsity Basketball where Frisch and SKA have opened up identical 5-0 records to lead the West and East respectively. The Cougars take a 2 game lead in their division picking up wins over 2nd place SAR by 4 and 3rd place Maayanot by 11, while the Sonics have the upper hand over 4-1 Flatbush, handing them their first loss 51-37. Flatbush will get the chance to rebound this coming Saturday night when they play HAFTR. The Hawks have won 4 in a row since dropping their season opener to SKA, taking 3 of those wins, over Central, North Shore and Solomon Schecter in the last week.
In Boys Varsity, rivalries were the order of the week, with the most notable one being Frisch’s 61-48 win over TABC. The win puts Frisch behind SAR at the top of West. SAR put an exclamation point this week of their own, drubbing DRS and knocking off JEC, a tough end to the week for JEC, bookending a win over rival Kushner with losses to Ramaz and SAR. In the East, Magen David continues to roll, with a 27 point win over HAFTR and a 50-37 win over YDE behind identical 24 point efforts from Senior Asher Melamed. The next stop for the Warriors will be a home matchup with rival Flatbush this coming Saturday night.
Moving over to hockey where the past two days saw two key inter-divisional contests with results that will make for an interesting 2nd half. Frisch stays undefeated, knocking off DRS 4-0 on Sunday. Senior Andrew Srulowitz posted Frisch’s 2nd shutout in a row, having also knocked off MTA 7-0 earlier this week. The game starts a tough stretch for the Cougars where beyond MTA tonight, Frisch will play SAR on Thursday, Kushner next Thursday and then a home- and-home with TABC to round out 2022 in games that will likely determine the top of the West. Speaking of SAR, the Sting seem to have found their way back on track in the nick of time, having won 3 of their last 4, including a 5-2 win over HANC last night. A scrappy contest between the two sides, SAR’s Morrison Dolfman broke a 2-2 tie with just under 5 minutes to go to give SAR the victory. Now at 3-1-0-2 the Sting can insert themselves into the conversation with Frisch and TABC as they square off with each over the coming week. In other action, Isaac Dweck scores twice for Flatbush, including the game-winner in an Overtime thriller with YDE to improve the Falcons to 2-1. Flatbush will look to state their case in the playoff race over the next 6 days squaring off with Magen David twice and HAFTR, both of whom sandwich Flatbush on the current standings-board.
In JV Hockey, DRS has opened up a 6 point lead on the rest of the East, but not without a scare from Frisch in a 4-3 win that saw the Cougars erase 3 DRS leads but could not overcome a fortuitous carom on a Josh Lampert game-winner late in the 3rd period. And Flatbush improves to 2-2, taking their 2nd win in a row, 3-0 over YDE behind an Omri Adaf shutout in YDE last Wednesday night.
With the Yeshiva League back, keeping up to date is a must, and the best place for that is Yeshiva League Pass. For all the latest scores, standings and rankings for both hockey and basketball be sure to follow Yeshiva League Pass on Instagram.

Nachum interviews Ebrahim Dawood Nonoo, President of the Association of Gulf Jewish Communities (AGJC) and President of the Bahrain Jewish Community. Nachum and Ebrahim covered a number of topics including maintaining the Jewish cemetery in Bahrain. You can read more in the press release below.
AGJC LAUNCHES PROJECT TO RENEW ONLY JEWISH CEMETERY IN THE GULF
MANAMA – The Association of Gulf Jewish Communities (AGJC), the people-to-people network of Jewish communities from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries that are developing Jewish life in the region, has launched a project to renew and maintain the Jewish cemetery in Bahrain for perpetuity. The initiative will kick-off with the Jewish holiday of Tu B’Shevat, starting the evening of Jan. 16th.
Modern Jewish life in Bahrain began in the 1880s, when Jews from Iraq, were looking for better economic and living prospects and emigrated to Bahrain. Since then, Jewish life in the Kingdom has flourished and in the 1930s, the community established a synagogue and Jewish cemetery. The synagogue is the oldest in the GCC and the only operational one.
The more than 100-year-old cemetery is the only operational one in the GCC. The project aims to create a perpetual fund to maintain the cemetery.
“As we celebrate Tu B’Shevat, in the Jewish Tradition, as the Arboreal New Year, we are planting trees in the Jewish cemetery of Bahrain which is akin to bringing life back to those that have lived in the beautiful community in Bahrain for centuries and made their resting place in Bahrain for eternity,” said AGJC Rabbi Dr. Elie Abadie. “As our ancestors planted in their generation for the benefit of our generation, so too we plant in this generation for the benefit of future generations.”
“For more than 100 years, our family members have been buried in the Jewish cemetery in Bahrain and one component of our community planning is ensuring that our cemetery is properly maintained for generations to come,” said AGJC President Ebrahim Dawood Nonoo. “We are very thankful that the AGJC chose this for its Tu B’Shevat project.”
Those who are interested in learning more about the initiative and supporting it should email BahrainCemetery@gulfjewish.org.
The Association of Gulf Jewish Communities (AGJC) is the umbrella organization for the Jewish communities of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries that are building and enhancing Jewish life in the region. While each community is independent, they share a common goal and vision – for Jewish life to flourish in the Gulf for the benefit of both residents and visitors. The AGJC oversees programming and services such as the Beth Din of Arabia, the Arabian Kosher Certification Agency, lifecycle events and other community programs.

Nachum hosted the OU’s Rebbetzin Dr. Adina Shmidman to promote the start of the new Nach Yomi cycle coming up this Thursday.
From the OU website:
It’s that time again!
You may have read how Mishna Yomit – the study of two mishnayos a day – just restarted its six-year cycle. Well, on January 20, Nach Yomi is about to do the same!
Daf Yomi is a seven-year program to finish the Babylonian Talmud; Mishna Yomit is a six-year program to complete all of Mishna. While these are certainly achievable goals embraced by many, many participants, some people may balk at such long-term commitments. With Nach Yomi, participants can complete all of Nach – the books of Neviim (Prophets) and Kesuvim (Writings) – in a mere two years at the rate of a chapter a day. Anyone can do it! With Nach Yomi and parsha study, every Jew can master Tanach, our most foundational book.
Nach Yomi is truly OU Torah‘s flagship program. Way back in 2007, OU Torah put the daily study of Nach on the map. The OU’s Shoshana Grossman Nach Yomi provides a daily audio shiur from a renowned lecturer, the text of the daily chapter in Hebrew and English, and The Nach Yomi Companion – an acclaimed synopsis of the daily chapter in the vernacular. In 2020, we did it again with Torat Imecha Nach Yomifrom the OU Women’s Initiative. Torat Imecha Nach Yomi provides daily shiurim from renowned women teachers of Torah, plus the text in Hebrew and English. And Nach Yomi keeps getting better!
First off, we encourage you to download the new calendar checklist for the 2022-2024 Nach Yomi cycle, courtesy of OU Torah and the OU Women’s Initiative! With this handy chart, you can track your progress from Yehoshua (Joshua) through Divrei HaYamim (Chronicles).
Second, have you seen the beautiful new designs of our Shnayim Mikra, Mishna Yomit and HaShoneh Halachos daily emails? Well, Nach Yomi has a beautiful redesign, too, starting with our new cycle! Sign up for the Nach Yomi daily email and have the Nach Yomi Companion synopsis delivered straight to your inbox, along with links to both Nach Yomi and Torat Imecha Nach Yomi shiurim! (You can sign up for all of those daily Torah emails and more here.)
Speaking of the shiurim, Torat Imecha Nach Yomi has a line-up of all-new shiurim planned for the coming cycle! (And keep in mind that while these are women teachers, the Torat Imecha Nach Yomi is not intended as a program “for women.” Sure, it’s incredibly popular among women but to paraphrase the old soap commercial, men like it, too!)
It’s too soon to announce because it’s still in progress but there’s an excellent chance that we’ll be introducing a new text and translation to Nach Yomi – stay tuned for more about that!
Also coming soon – a new OU Women’s Initiative app! This new app will feature Torat Imecha Nach Yomi and other Women’s Initiative programs, including Torat Imecha Parsha, Ideas and Inspiration, and more – an easy go-to for the shiurim you love!
And don’t forget our other great Nach programs, including Nach Yomi in Depth, Rabbi Rosner on Nach, A Journey Through Nach and more – all of which can help you master the material presented in the daily-study programs!
So join us on January 20 and claim the text that is rightfully yours on OU Torah or by using the OU Torah app for iOS and Android! And if you’ve already done Nach Yomi… do it again with another teacher! There are many facets to Nach study just waiting for you to discover them!

Nachum hosted Gregory Zuckerman, author of “A Shot To Save The World,” on this morning’s JM in the AM to explore this fascinating and timely book.
You can read the press release below:
A SHOT TO SAVE THE WORLD:
The Inside Story of the Life-or-Death Race for a Covid-19 Vaccine
Gregory Zuckerman
Portfolio Books / October 26, 2021
The authoritative and heart-pounding untold story of the race to produce the most consequential scientific breakthrough of our time—a COVID-19 vaccine—from the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Man Who Solved the Market
HOT TOPIC: Politicians, government officials, business leaders and public-health professionals were unprepared when a mysterious respiratory illness emerged in Wuhan, China in January 2020. Vaccine research was unpopular and those working on cutting-edge technologies, including U.S.-based Moderna and German company BioNTech were years away from an approved vaccine or other proof that their approaches worked.
By now we know what went wrong in the response to the most devastating pandemic in a century. Mistakes were legion and many of the world’s biggest drug and vaccine makers were slow to react or couldn’t muster effective responses. A SHOT TO SAVE THE WORLD is the untold story of what went right. It’s a riveting chronicle of the scientists’ epic sprint to create Covid-19 vaccines, fulfilling decades of unheralded yet revolutionary work on messenger RNA, virology, immunology, and more.
At the heart of the story are a few unlikely and untested scientists, researchers, and executives who stepped up to save civilization. Stephane Bancel, Moderna’s French CEO, was long dismissed as a fabulist or even the next Elizabeth Holmes. Ugur Sahin, the Turkish founder of BioNTech, had little virus experience or proof of success. Dan Barouch, a Boston scientist, employed questionable, maybe even dangerous techniques. Adrian Hill, a British scientist at Oxford University, was among the most detested men in science. They and their colleagues scrambled to turn years of underappreciated work into life-saving vaccines in a matter of months, each gunning to make the big breakthrough—and to beat each other for the glory that a vaccine guaranteed.
DEEP ACCESS: Award winning Wall Street Journal reporter and bestselling author Gregory Zuckerman had unprecedented access inside the top-secret laboratories, corporate clashes, and high-stakes government negotiations that determined the trajectory of the vaccine efforts. Zuckerman interviewed more than 300 scientists, executives, and investors behind the most important pharma players, including Moderna, BioNTech, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Novavax and Merck, as well as top decision makers and stakeholders within Oxford University, the US government and key academic institutions.
It’s a story of unsung heroes, heated rivalries, unbridled ambitions, crippling insecurities, and unexpected drama. A SHOT TO SAVE THE WORLD offers a blow-by-blow chronicle of the most consequential scientific achievement of our time.
NEWS ANGLES:
- A SHOT TO SAVE THE WORLD will be published as vaccination efforts across the world continue to ramp up and new variants of the virus emerge. This is the story of how science stopped a modern-day plague. It is the first book to tell the full story of how the vaccines were discovered and ‘what went right’ in the race to find a vaccine.
- Zuckerman argues that groundbreaking scientists will develop new vaccines to handle the Delta variant as well as future, inevitable variants. But he says it will likely be impossible to eradicate SARS-CoV- 2. Eventually, it could become an endemic virus that leads to seasonal disease, as well as more painful, periodic outbreaks.
- Zuckerman says the virus likely emerged naturally, spilling over from the animal world, and he’s skeptical of the thesis that it originated in a Wuhan laboratory.
- The vaccines are among humankind’s most unexpected achievements and are the result of decades of dedication, creativity, and frustration. At the start of the pandemic, many healthcare experts deemed it unlikely that safe and effective shots could be produced quickly—the average vaccine took 10 years to produce (until 2020, the fastest vaccine had been mumps, which had been developed after four years). Pioneering scientists began work on the 3 key vaccine approaches – mRNA, adenoviruses and protein subunit – around 1990, persisting despite years of failure and working in the face of deep skepticism, even scorn.
- Developing, testing, manufacturing and delivering safe and effective vaccines within a single year is a feat unmatched in modern science, and represents arguably one of humankind’s proudest moments. The Covid-19 vaccines have helped prevent more than 279,000 deaths and averted over 1.25 million additional hospitalizations.
- Many vaccine efforts came close to failure. Moderna didn’t have the money to make a vaccine as recently as May 2020, and Pfizer and BioNTech executives were unable to decide on a vaccine design, jeopardizing their own effort. Oxford University scientists weren’t convinced the virus was a true threat and needed the prodding of a junior researcher to become focused on a vaccine.
- Who didn’t meet success in the vaccine race? The world’s biggest drug and vaccine makers, including Merck, Sanofi, GlaxoSmithKline, were slow to react to the pandemic or couldn’t muster an effective response.
- The success of the vaccines can be a model for society, showing how private industry can work hand-in-hand with government bodies. While almost every topic of importance today has become politicized, Zuckerman argues that important lessons can be learned from the historic success of the Covid-19 vaccine efforts.
- The Covid-19 vaccine revolutionaries are now focusing on new challenges, including cancer, AIDS, malaria, multiple sclerosis and more. Their companies’ soaring shares and record profits could enable future medical breakthroughs.
ADVANCE PRAISE:
“The race to develop a COVID vaccine is one of the most exciting dramas in medical history, and A SHOT TO SAVE THE WORLD is a thrilling account based on great reporting and access to all of the teams. An inspiring and informative page-turner.” -Walter Isaacson, author of #1 New York Times bestseller* The Code Breaker***

Nachum interviewed author Ahava Ehrenpreis about her latest ArtScroll release “More Than Special: Perspectives from the World of Special Needs.” Always remember to use promo code RADIO at ArtScroll.com to get great savings and free shipping!
About the book:
Everyone who knew him was mesmerized by Saadya Ehrenpreis, a”h, the young man with Down Syndrome who confounded all the experts. He would be totally dependent for every basic need, the doctors predicted; he had little or no chance of ever communicating. Yet Saadya developed into a man who could read in Hebrew and English, traveled by himself to learn in Eretz Yisrael, and attended the Makor College Experience program at Yeshiva University.
After his untimely passing from COVID-19, his mother, Ahava Ehrenpreis, a talented author, chose to memorialize his life through filling a pressing need ― providing a book that would serve as both a resource and an inspiration to parents, relatives, friends, and professionals dealing with children and adults who have special needs. More: To compile a book for everyone who believes that every person is special and should be treated with understanding, compassion, acceptance, and respect.

Nachum hosted author Scott Shay, co-Founder and Chairman of Signature Bank, to discuss his latest book “Conspiracy U: A Case Study.”
From Amazon:
Conspiracy U exposes how conspiracy theories drawn from far-right and far-left ideologies masquerade as scholarship at many universities, endangering our norms and conceptions of morality and truth.
In Conspiracy U, Shay presents a case study of his alma mater, Northwestern University, in order to challenge the proliferation of anti-Zionist conspiracy theories championed on college campuses by both the far right and far left.
Shay tackles the thorny question of how otherwise brilliant minds willingly come to embrace and espouse such patent falsehoods. He explains why Zionism, the movement for Jewish national self-determination, has become the focal point for both far-right and far-left conspiracy theories. His keen analysis reveals why Jews serve as the canary in the coal mine.
Conspiracy U delivers an urgent wake-up call for everyone who cares about the future of civil society and is concerned that universities today are failing at teaching students how to strive for truth but rather guiding students to blindly trust theories driven by ideology. The book provides a roadmap for reform based on universal moral and intellectual standards and offers a way out of the culture wars that are ripping America apart.

Nachum spoke with former MK Rabbi Dov Lipman about the latest Israel travel/Covid news and the current Yad L’Olim fundraising campaign. Visit the campaign page HERE.
The creation and development of the State of Israel is one of the greatest stories in the history of the world. Olim from Western countries make a unique contribution to this story with their passion and love for Israel and their desire to make the state even greater. Olim from Western countries make significant personal and professional sacrifices to fulfill the dream of Aliyah.
Yad L’Olim’s mission is to help olim thrive in Israel. This begins with helping olim navigate Israel’s complicated bureaucracies to ensure that Israel’s new immigrants gain access to all basic services, benefits, and rights to which they are entitled. Yad L’Olim creates a support system for olim, developing new networks of professional advisors and assisting with gaining Israeli business know-how.
Within government Yad L’Olim serves as a lobbying body to the Knesset to drive government policies that provide new immigrants with the tools that they need to succeed in Israel. Yad L’Olim raises the voice of olim and their families in the halls of government and empowers olim to have an impact on Israeli policy and the direction of the Jewish state.

From MoDate:
MoDate was founded in February 2021 by Evan Harris, who recognized that there was a hole in the Modern Orthodox dating system. Evan, at the age of 24, with the help of a few friends, created the MoDate platform as a free and private solution for the current Modern Orthodox dating struggle.
The MoDate process is simple. Connectors are responsible for recruiting their single friends (MoDaters) to fill out the MoDate questionnaire. The MoDate platform incorporates an alias system which allows users to remain anonymous. MoDate has a proprietary algorithm which creates matches. Once matches are made Connectors must speak with each other to reveal the identities of their MoDaters and decide whether or not to set their friends up.
With the motto of “Pump the Volume”, MoDate aims to reach all corners of the Modern Orthodox dating world in the United States and Israel. MoDate has been expanding rapidly, with over 750+ MoDaters signed up to date.
With the goal of making the dating process a positive one, MoDate offers various giveaways, Connector of the Month awards, dating vouchers, and more.

Reach Higher. Do More. Be Greater. Just like the people in this book!
Rabbi Binyomin Pruzansky wants you to meet some great people:

• The family with 8 children who knew they might be homeless by tomorrow but never gave up hope.
• The man who sang and danced with joy in every room of his house, every single Motzei Shabbos – for forty years!
In this new collection of stories, we’ll read about people who never give up. Who reach higher, much higher, than they believed possible. We’ll read about them … and we’ll learn from them … and we’ll be inspired to reach higher in our own lives, just like they did.

From ArtScroll:
Gedolim and world leaders. Politicians, spies and soldiers.
Inspiration and mystery, bullets and bitachon.
This book has it all.
• How did a young journalist create a revolution in the Israeli government — by defending the honor of Shabbos?
• What did the Pnei Menachem say about Yitzchak Rabin — and how did his words eerily come true?
• What is the inside story of the Iranian nuclear program — and how is Israel managing to defend itself?
• Could a Polish non-Jew possibly be Reb Yisroel’s brother, who’d disappeared during the terrible Holocaust years?
For more than 50 years Reb Yisroel Katzover — also writing for Hamodia under the name A. Pe’er — has been one of Israel’s premier military journalists. As an observant Jew, he has often served as an unofficial liaison between the country’s military and political leadership and the nation’s gedolei Torah. As a pioneer in the world of Jewish music, he’s encouraged the careers of some of today’s most preeminent musicians.
In this unforgettable memoir, we learn the inside story about the personalities that he’s met, the travels he’s taken, and the lessons he’s learned from a half century of journalistic adventures. As the “ultimate insider,” we hear stories that we’ve never heard before, that we never dreamed could be true.
No one tells a story quite like Rabbi Nachman Seltzer, author of almost 40 books including the bestsellers Incredible! and Living Legend. Combine his unique storytelling talents with a man who has countless fascinating stories — and you get a book that’s part thriller, part secret history, part inspiration — and 100% excitement!

For more than 60 years, our Modern Orthodox, co-educational Yeshiva Day School has imbued children with a lifelong love of Torah, Mitzvot, and Midot, while nurturing their identification with the land and people of Israel. At JKHA/RKYHS students thrive in a rigorous dual academic program that emphasizes critical thinking, invention and experiential learning.
Our student-centered General Studies program is individualized to challenge all learners to fulfill their full potential. Every student is valued for his or her unique gifts and talents, and all take responsibility for their own learning, and for enriching the entire community. JKHA/RKYHS’s teachers are experts in their fields, as well as role models who take pride in creating a learning environment that is notably warm and supportive. A full complement of learning resources, from laboratories and SMARTBoards to libraries and athletic facitilies, enable students to enhance their knowledge and skills.
Our Judaic Studies program focuses on Torah scholarship and the study of oral and written traditions, while inspiring our students to love and practice their faith. Religious Zionism informs every aspect of student life; and the importance of Jewish heritage and culture are reinforced by daily instruction in modern Ivrit, and through participation in special events such as the annual Salute to Israel Parade, and celebrations of Yom Ha’atzmautand Yom Yerushalayim. Equally important, students are motivated to grow into productive, caring members of society who will eagerly embrace opportunities to serve and lead their communities.
We invite you to visit our scenic campus in Livingston, New Jersey, and experience our exceptional community of learners.

Nachum welcomed Jeremy Halpern to this morning’s JM in the AM to preview the Yad Vashem USA Gala coming up this Sunday.
Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center, is the leading source for Shoah education, commemoration, documentation and research. As the Jewish people’s memorial to the Holocaust, Yad Vashem works to safeguard and impart the memory of the victims; to pay tribute to the survivors; to honor the Righteous Among the Nations; to accurately document one of the most cataclysmic chapters in the history of humanity; and to contend with the challenges of keeping the Holocaust relevant today and for future generations.
The survivor generation is rapidly dwindling, and we will soon find ourselves in an era without survivors to tell their stories first hand. In an era of alternative facts, Yad Vashem works tirelessly to meet the inevitable challenges of how to pass the torch of Holocaust remembrance to a generation who will not have the opportunity to hear a survivor’s first-hand account of the horrors, and of how to impart the significance of Jewish identity and continuity to the fourth and fifth generations. Yad Vashem’s integrated approach incorporates meaningful educational initiatives, groundbreaking research and inspirational exhibits. Its use of innovative technological platforms maximizes accessibility to the vast information in the Yad Vashem collections for an expanding global audience.
The American Society for Yad Vashem (ASYV) was established 40 years ago by a group of visionary Holocaust survivors interested in meaningfully supporting the crucial efforts of Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center in Jerusalem. ASYV advances Yad Vashem’s mission of Holocaust education, research, documentation and commemoration by offering programming designed to engage a broad community of caring individuals to learn about the Holocaust and keep its memory and lessons alive. Through seminars and conferences, ASYV trains educators and professionals to promulgate the educational curriculum of Yad Vashem in the classroom and beyond. Its Young Leadership Associates, a dynamic group of members representing the next generation, hold programs to promote Holocaust education and awareness among their peers. With the support of donors, ASYV is able to strengthen the efforts of Yad Vashem as together we remember the past and shape the future.

“When you left his study, you didn’t just have a generous check: you had dignity, respect, and a new sense of pride in what you were doing.”
“I’ve seen people for whom Margaret Thatcher showed respect, and I’ve seen people for whom Rav Yaakov Kamenetsky stood up. But I have known only one man for whom Rav Yaakov would express admiration, and toward whom heads of state would bow. ”
It’s the story of a journey to spiritual greatness, to faith, humility, and extraordinary generosity, a story that takes us through construction sites and boardrooms as well as the hallowed halls of yeshivos and batei midrash.
Aristocratic in conduct and speech, Reb Moshe Reichmann treated other people in a way that left them feeling that they had brushed with royalty, elevating himself and those around him. The kindness and attention he invested in his family flowed outward to impact every corner of the Torah world, conveying respect and encouragement along with his donations.
The most respected financiers on earth were in awe of him, yet this same Mr. Reichmann would bow deferentially when speaking to Torah scholars. He was patron to institutions and individuals, giving not just money, but time, attention, and genuine concern. Yisroel Besser, author of many bestselling books, including the unforgettable Just Love Them, brings us a story that will make us newly sensitive to the potential to give that lies within us.

In anticipation of the New York City Marathon, coming up this Sunday, Nachum welcomed Peter Berkowsky, Director of The International Minyan for New York City Marathoners to this morning’s JM in the AM to discuss the important details for those who would like to take part in a minyan prior to the run. For the 37th year, the TCS New York City Marathon, will feature morning services at the Fort Wadsworth staging ground for the many Jewish runners expected to compete in the 50th edition of this world-famous road race. The International Minyan for New York City Marathoners, inaugurated in 1983, is a project of JRunners, a Brooklyn-based organization dedicated to encouraging physical health for Jewish men and women through athletic competition. Full shachris services will commence at approximately 7:00 a.m., and at appropriate intervals thereafter, to accommodate the hundreds of expected participants from around the world who are assigned to the several wave starts of the race. Each service should take about a half hour, and runners are urged to select a service that will allow them at least 45 minutes after completion to get to their race start marshaling corral.
While we encourage runners this year to use tefillin, siddurim and tallesim provided by the Minyan organizers, secure arrangements will once again be available for minyanaires to check their personal religious articles (sorry, no clothing or other personal items) with the organizers for pickup at a convenient location close to the finish line in Manhattan. Those checking religious articles with us are urged to proceed directly to the pickup point – the columned portico of Cong. Shearith Israel (the Spanish & Portuguese Synagogue), facing Central Park West at the corner of West 70th Street – after crossing the finish line. Family members or friends may pick up these articles during the afternoon, while runners are on the race course, by coming to the barricade at Columbus Avenue and West 70th Street, and calling Minyan Director Peter Berkowsky at 973/477-7908.

RELIGIOUS ZIONISTS OF AMERICA’S ISRAEL COMMUNITY FUND LOOKING TO DOUBLE FUNDS RAISED FOR LOD AND AKKO RECOVERY CAMPAIGN
NEW YORK — Over the coming weeks, the Religious Zionists of America (RZA) Israel Community Fund’s (ICF) Lod and Akko Recovery Campaign is looking to more than double the funds previously raised. The move comes at a critical stage in the rebuilding of both communities which were most impacted by Arab rioting earlier this year. Thus far, in the few months since it launched, the campaign has already raised US$115,000.
The riots in Lod earlier this year, resulted in 100 Jewish homes being burned, more than 300 Jewish homes being looted, 800 cars belonging to Jewish owners destroyed and 10 synagogues being burned and sustaining damage. The period notably created emotional trauma in the lives of many of the community’s residents, some of whom fled to family members in cities where the tensions were calmer. The fund’s stated goal is to help community members return to their homes and lives, and to help create a stronger and more cohesive community for those looking to settle there.
This summer’s RZA-Mizrachi Leadership Solidarity Mission, a delegation of 25 American Jewish communal leaders, toured the damage in Lod firsthand. In speaking with community members and leaders in Lod, the group launched the Israel Community Fund, and established a targeted fundraising goal necessary to rebuild Lod and Akko. The funds raised have already enabled emotional and trauma counseling resources to be deployed in the two cities, and kickstarted the rebuilding and refurbishing process of Lod’s central synagogue as well as Ramat Eshkol’s Torah institutions. It also helped to sponsor communal shabbat meals and programs for the affected neighborhoods to help the community heal together and build back stronger.
Now, with a renewed communal push around Parshat Chayei Sarah, the RZA is building on the momentum inspired by the lives of Avraham Avinu and Sarah Imeinu to propel the grassroots campaign’s funds forward by more than half, with an urgent goal of reaching $250,000 to continue funding the programs in both cities.
“Our matriarch Sarah’s conviction and the steadfastness she and Avraham demonstrated when fulfilling their own divine obligations serves to inspire us in this moment as we look to further help our brothers and sisters in Israel,” said Religious Zionists of America Executive Vice President Rabbi Ari Rockoff. “We are calling on our communities in the diaspora to contribute to this grassroots effort in order to strengthen the Jewish communities of Lod and Akko by providing them with the resources they require to successfully grow back stronger after the period of unrest they experienced earlier this year.”
Synagogues, schools, other institutions, and private donors looking to join the effort can do so at: https://rza.org/israelcommunityfund/.
Founded in 1913 as the American branch of World Mizrachi, the Religious Zionists of America serves as the umbrella organization for American supporters of Israel’s Religious Zionist movement. The organization aims to inspire a commitment to religious Zionism, the preservation of Jewish political freedom, the enhancement of Jewish religious life in the land of Israel and the promotion of immigration to Israel.
