Learning Lumdos: Recent Episodes

Rav Chaim Smulowitz

Finally, a Torah podcast for real Yeshiva style learning. Enjoy hearing Geshmak pieces of Lumdos from authentic Sefarim. Given by Rav Chaim Smulowitz, Rav of the Pirchei Shoshanim's Issur V'heter program. Brought you by my "Gemara and Tosfos series" made to help struggling Bachurim. For details, and also a list of episodes according to Sefer, check out LearnTosfos.com.

Unfortunately, I need to pause because I have other projects that makes it hard to commit to the podcast. Hopefully, I'll be able to return soon.
