Rabbi Steven Pruzansky is one of the few Modern Orthodox rabbis who isn't intimidated by 'elite opinion.' On moral depravity, Arab terror, and more, he has always fearlessly spoken his mind. In this interview, he addresses government forms that replace 'mother' and father' with 'parent 1' and 'parent 2'; Israel's Law of Return (which sometimes benefits non-Jews more than Jews); Arab terror; and the future of Modern Orthodoxy.Books mentioned in this episode:Road to Redemption by Rabbi Steven Pruzansky This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

'Finding' yourself won't lead to happiness. Indeed, no pursuit with the self at the center will. If you want to be happy, focus on G-d and your obligations.Isaac Breuer once wrote about the great medieval rabbis: “[They] have generally remained silent on the subject of their personal development, of their struggles and sufferings…. Precisely what would make them interesting to modern man they did not consider worth delineation.” Should we perhaps take a lesson from them?  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

Today we are discussing a topic that will raise much controversy. Parental Alienation. This is a topic of justice. No woman, no man, no child, no animal, no living creature should ever be abused or mistreated. Not by anyone. There should be no cover-ups, and if there is, it must be exposed. When two people get divorced, it is between them. The adults. It is the couple getting divorced. The children should not be getting divorced from either of their parents. Keep the children out of it! Children have a right to have a relationship with both parents. No Mother, no father should ever keep their child or children away from their parent. The long term-effect of parental alienation on children can be devastating and is actually a criminal offense in some countries Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap interviewed Jeffrey Ostrov, an orthodox Jewish man from Israel. He talked about his painful experience as a father who is being alienated from his children and about how the system is failing him and others in his situation. He explained how the alienation began, and what his ex-wife claimed is the reason for her keeping his children away from him. He also described what would happen if he attempted contact with his children, and whether his children would want to have a relationship with him.   This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

According to a new poll, President Trump has a HUGE lead against all the other GOP candidates. He's beating DeSantis by 30 points and decimating Nikki Haley by a whopping 60 points.  PLUS: The Wall Street Journal's new bombshell report says the Dept of Energy concluded that COVID-19 leaked from a lab. In addition, the FBI this week came to the same conclusion.  Remenber when they called Trump a conspiracy theorist for saying the same thing? Lori Lightfoot, the horrifically bad mayor of Chicago, got crushed in her bid for reelection. Now she is saying that she lost because she is a 'black woman'.  You cannot make this stuff up.  The Washington Post says that Pete Buttigieg was lying when he blamed the Ohio train derailment on Trump. Iran is only 12 days away from building a nuclear weapon. The city of New York is spending $92 billion on hotels for illegals.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

The true, the good, and the beautiful. The Great Books. That's what education used to be about. No longer. Today, people disdain the writings of 'dead white males' and think of education largely in terms of how much money it will yield them down the road. A growing movement, however, is rediscovering classical education, and Jeremy Tate, creator of the CLT (Classic Learning Test), is one of its leaders.The Closing of the American Mind by Allan BloomThe Coddling of the American Mind by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidtwww.1vs450.com  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

There are few true heroes in our midst. The people who stick their necks out to help others, and who do it not for money or fame, but because they truly care to help those whom nobody cares about. Those are the unsung heroes.  Here on the Definitive Rap we bring the truth to the forefront. We respect people of all faiths, and we believe in America, and Justice For All. Our guest today, Mark Appel, lives and breathes for peace and justice. Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap sat down with Mark Appel, a long-time advocate who has dedicated his life to advancing civil rights for all Americans and bridging the divide between different communities. Mark started by giving a detailed account of his background, and explained how he became such a successful advocate for so many years. He talked about how he spent ten years rallying the support for the bill called the passage of the Child Victims Act, a great victory for all victims of sex abuse. Mark explained his motivation to address the challenge of bringing multicultural communities and people together, to form The Bridge Multicultural and Advocacy Project, a unity center that aims to address issues across cultural lines, and advocates for transformational change in New York’s diverse communities. *WATCH THIS INTERVIEW   This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

The Queen of England, who in response to a request for life advice, she commented, “If I had to give only one piece of advice, it would be to invest in human connections. There is nothing more important in life than connecting with other people, and I think the last year or so has made that very clear.” The Queen was referring to the pandemic, where all humanity was witness to the importance of human connection, that has previously been taken for granted. The show’s guest today lives by that motto, and it is demonstrated by the way he lives his life, and how it reflects his life’s work. Baila Sebrow producer and host of The Definitive Rap sat down with Rabbi Dovid Cohen, an internationally renowned motivational speaker, spiritual leader, life coach, entrepreneur and author whose empathic approach has empowered many individuals to achieve success in all aspects of life.

Rabbi Cohen shared from his book, We’re Almost There, how one can live a Jewish life in the world today in midst of dilemmas.  He offered, a deep and raw understanding of human beings, and relationships from his book, Together Again, along with some excerpts. *WATCH THIS FASCINATING INTERVIEW   This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

If you think your job is tough, today’s episode will leave you shocked. Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap Show sat down with American TV producer Natasha Lance Rogoff to discuss her memoir, Muppets in Moscow: The Unexpected Crazy True Story of Making Sesame Street in Russia, which Rowman & Littlefield published recently. It chronicles Natasha’s experience producing a Russian version of Sesame Street in post-Soviet Union Russia. In the process, Natasha, who is Jewish, and her colleagues faced the assassinations of their broadcast partners, a car bombing, and the takeover of the show’s production office by Russian soldiers with AK47s.  The book captures the occurrences of a disagreement creating a fun, educational children’s television show against the violent backdrop of 1990s Moscow. It also relays the cultural clashes that threatened to derail Natasha’s efforts to bring the Muppets and their idealistic values to millions of children across the former Soviet empire, including Ukraine. As one of the people on Natasha’s team put it, “You are tasking us with developing this curriculum to help kids learn the skills they need for an open society, but how can we do it if we haven’t lived in an open society?” The show is off the air now, but its legacy—the Ulitsa Sezam (Sesame Street) generation—remains. We see it in the Russians walking out of Russia because they oppose Putin’s war and do not want to fight, and we see it on the Ukrainian side—the same age cohort, fighting for their freedom. Since its release, the book has been covered in The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, Vulture, and on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” among others. Natasha Lance Rogoff is an award-winning American television producer, filmmaker, and journalist who has produced television news and documentaries in Russia, Ukraine, and the former Soviet Union for CBS, NBC, ABC, and PBS. Lance Rogoff executive produced Ulitsa Sezam, the Russian adaptation of Sesame Street, between 1993 and 1997. She also produced Plaza Sesamo in Mexico. In addition to her television work, Lance Rogoff has reported on Soviet underground culture as a documentary director and magazine and newspaper writer for major international media outlets. Today, Lance Rogoff produces content for television and digital platforms and is the CEO and founder of an ed-tech company. An associate fellow in Harvard University’s Art, Film, and Visual Studies department, she divides her time between Cambridge, MA and New York City. Natasha talked about what she envisioned for this production before things went crazy, and why she chose to produce a Sesame Street type of show. Natasha described the most difficult part of this assignment, and the difficulties she faced working in Russia. She explained why this production of a Russian Sesame Street got so dangerous, and how a backer who was going to come in with a million dollars for the show was blown up in his car. The show concluded with Natasha’s message of what she would most like people to understand about the Russian people and their country. *WATCH THIS INTERVIEW   This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

In this exciting and informative episode, Yaakov M discusses the latest Yated Chinuch Rountable question-- should parents choose a High School with strong acedemics and a better reputation, or one where the girls' friends are going?

Should which place will look best on a shidduch resume play a role in the decision? One thing is pretty certain--the most important thing is our childrens' happiness and emotional health If a child is a shomer Torah U'Mitzvos, the number one priority needs to be your child's happiness.

In this exclusive VIN Podcast interview, Rav Aaron Lankry goes through the timeline of events on Thursday, when an alarmed mother called the police to report what she believed was an attempted abduction.

Rabbi Lanky explains how he obtained the video footage which proved the man is innocent. He explains how he worked with the NYPD and lawyers to assist the man and get him released from custody as quickly as possible. And he explains why our society has become extremely sensitive to potential abuse, and how people should avoid being falsely accused. This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

It is 80 years since the Holocaust began. The lessons we have learned in history is that we cannot forget what has happened. We cannot forget because of the victims, their persecutions and horrible deaths. We cannot forget because of the survivors, who witnessed and lost so much, and we cannot forget because Jews, and other victims were targeted for annihilation. And if we don’t remember, if we choose to forget – it can happen again. The United Nations has designated Holocaust Remembrance Day to be on January 27th, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz – Birkenau. In tribute to Holocaust Remembrance Day, Dr. Moshe Katz, a survivor of the Holocaust agreed to tell his story during an interview with Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap. Dr. Moshe Katz, is author of Nine Out of Ten, and well known speaker who speaks extensively to all audiences about the Holocaust. Dr. Katz talked extensively about his upbringing, including where he was born and raised, what his family life was before the Holocaust, everything leading up to the Holocaust, what he endured, and how he survived. Dr. Katz, explained why people were not aware that the situation in Europe was so dire and dangerous for Jews, and that they are being deported to their deaths. He also discussed why he titled his book Nine Out of Ten. The interview concluded with a blessing for the audience, as it is said that a person who survived the Holocaust has the power to give blessings to others. WE WILL NEVER FORGET. We will always keep the memory of the 6 million and plus alive. As Elie Wiesel said, “To forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time.”  *WATCH THIS EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

'It's not our place to impose Torah values on American society.' This often-voiced argument is based on ignorance of American history. America was built on Torah values (which explains why adultery is illegal in 16 U.S. states). All we're doing is trying to preserve it. It's the secular left – not the religious right – that imposes its values on the rest of America.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

With social media opening the eyes to the world about issues that were previously unknown to others, it has been normalized to those who in the past used to suffer silently. One of those issues is abuse. That word is now not just an issue of human interest, but it has become politicized too. Abuse of all types has also evolved into sociopolitical attitudes. Regardless of what anyone says, and regardless of who the victim is…Abuse has a powerful effect on the victim, not just while the abuse is going on, but even after the perpetrator is no longer in the victim’s life. When an individual is abused, life does not go back to normal for the victim. Every aspect of what the victim will be doing or choosing to do after the abuse is over will be influenced by what she or he has endured. Baila Sebrow producer and host of The Definitive Rap Show sat down with Esther Goldstein, a licensed clinical trauma specialist who holds a passion for helping others find and achieve true healing to discuss types of abusive situations; domestic abuse, child abuse, abuse of power in various situations, assaults, etc. Esther talked about abuse prevalent in society today, the symptoms a person exhibits while in the midst of abuse, and the type of symptoms one would see in a person after the abuse has ended. She explained the treatment a victim of abuse would need in order to heal. *WATCH THIS INTERVIEW  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

There are billions of people living on this earth. Let’s imagine what the world would look like if everyone would just love and respect one another. But, that can’t seem to be accomplished. We have racism. We have antisemitism. And we have the media supporting it. We have high profile celebrities supporting it. From MSNBC’s Medhi Hasan who held a panel with Anti-Zionist MSNBC commentator Peter Beinart where Peter accused Israel of being an ethnostate that privileges Jews over Palestine to Kanye West, spreading hate. Not only is the issue of antisemitism not getting better, but it is getting worse. Baila Sebrow producer and host of The Definitive Rap interviewed Professor Jeffrey Lax, an attorney, professor and department chair at CUNY, who discussed this issue at great length. Jeffrey agreed that it’s beginning to feel like antisemites are trying to beat each other out on the title of “Antisemite of the Year, and how it has been normalized, and mainstreamed.  He talked about the ring leaders of antisemitism in the United States, and who is tolerating the Left. He said that CNN is being criticized for covering up the rise of antisemitism, while whitewashing left-wing antisemitism and anti-Jewish attacks by other minority groups, and why they are getting away with it. Jeffrey openly discussed how as professor at a public university, he is being treated by his non Jewish superiors and other colleagues, and what it’s like for others Jewish professors and students. The interview concluded with Jeffrey criticizing a group that is supposed to be fighting antisemitism, saying that they are more concerned about politics. *WATCH THIS INTERVIEW    This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

The White House version of the 'Garage-gate' scandal is filled with lies, glaring omissions, and contradictions.  Why were Biden's lawyers cleaning out a closet if they were unaware about classified documents being stored? Shouldn't it have been a cleaning crew? Or did they in fact know there were secret docs hidden? Why does the WH keep lying about the number of documents found? What information was in the documents? How were they still finding MORE documents in the garage this past week, several months after the initial discovery? How long does it take to search one garage? In addition, the Penn Biden office where the initial batch was found, opened in 2018--one year AFTER Biden left his job as VP. Where were the documents during that year? In addition, Hunter Biden, who is compromised by China, had full access to the documents in Biden's home and garage.  Why are Biden's personal lawyerss going throgh these documents, and not FBI or DOJ???? Why do they they get to use honor systen, after Trump was treated like a spy? How can anyone believe that Biden was unaware of so many sets of classified documents in MULTIPLE locations, some of which were labeled TOP SECRET in red lettering? In addition, who leaked all this to the media and why? Even CNN has thrown Biden under the bus, saying that the White House has misled the public and gave the impression they have something to hide.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
