            <description><![CDATA[<p>💍 Sparks &amp; Stability: The Torah Take on Marriage</p>
<p>with Harav Yosef Greenfeld, Rov of Chestnut Shul – Lakewood, NJ</p>
<p>In this deeply insightful and practical episode of the KOLOT Podcast, Rabbi Hillel Kapenstein sits down with Harav Yosef Greenfeld, the esteemed Rov of Chestnut Shul in Lakewood, New Jersey, who has guided and prepared thousands of chassanim for marriage over the course of his career.</p>
<p>Drawing on decades of experience counseling young couples, Rabbi Greenfeld shares timeless Torah wisdom about what truly makes a marriage thrive — from the moment a couple prepares for the chuppah to building a home that lasts a lifetime.</p>
<p>Rabbi Greenfeld reflects on the formative influences that shaped his own path, including the profound guidance of Harav Yaakov Kamenetsky zt”l, and the powerful role his parents played in directing him toward a life dedicated to strengthening Jewish marriages.</p>
<p>This episode explores some of the most important and sometimes uncomfortable questions about relationships — with clarity, warmth, and authentic Torah perspective.</p>
<p><strong>🧭 In This Episode We Discuss:</strong></p>
<p>✨ What does it really mean to be “ready” for marriage?</p>
<p>✨ How does someone know they married the right person?</p>
<p>✨ The balance between individuality and unity in marriage</p>
<p>✈️ Is it appropriate to vacation with friends without your spouse?</p>
<p>📈 What happens when spouses grow at different levels of Shmiras HaMitzvos?</p>
<p>👶 Healthy Torah perspectives on family planning</p>
<p>🏠 Breaking cycles: building a healthy home even if you grew up in a broken one</p>
<p>📜 The essential do’s and don’ts every couple must know</p>
<p>👨‍👩‍👧 Chinuch Habanim U’Banos — raising children in a Torah home</p>
<p>💒 The powerful bracha every chassan and kallah receive under the chuppah</p>
<p>❤️ Practical marriage advice for the first year — and for decades to come</p>
<p>💡 Rabbi Greenfeld shares profound yet practical insights drawn from thousands of conversations with chassanim and young couples, offering guidance that is relevant not only to newlyweds but to anyone seeking to build a stronger, deeper marriage.</p>
<p>Whether you are preparing for marriage, newly married, or many years into building your home, this conversation offers wisdom, perspective, and tools that can transform the way we think about relationships.</p>
<p>💬 This episode will challenge assumptions, strengthen perspectives, and provide timeless Torah guidance for building a marriage filled with both sparks and stability.</p>

            <title><![CDATA[Rabbi Aaron Kotler and Rabbi Boruch Neuberger (Live)]]></title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>🎙️From Ashes to Empire: How Torah Took Root—and Thrives—in America</strong></p>
<p>Recorded live at the Columbus Community Kollel’s historic 30th Anniversary Celebration on November 19, 2025, inside the majestic <strong>Ohio Statehouse</strong>, this rare conversation brings together two of the most consequential leaders of American Torah Jewry—on one stage, in one unforgettable dialogue.</p>
<p>In this landmark episode, <strong>Rabbi Aaron Kotler</strong>, President Emeritus of Beth Medrash Govoha, and <strong>Rabbi Boruch Neuberger</strong>, President of Ner Israel Rabbinical College, trace a three-generation journey that reshaped the destiny of Torah in the United States.</p>
<p>They begin with their grandfathers—survivors of the European devastation—who arrived on American shores with little more than unshakable emunah and a daring conviction: Torah could not only survive in America, it could flourish. They continue with their fathers, who transformed that vision into living institutions as Torah life took root and spread across the country. And finally, they turn inward—reflecting candidly on their own leadership, responsibility, and the weight of carrying a mesorah that now shapes tens of thousands of lives.</p>
<p>Along the way, you’ll hear:</p>
<ul>
<li>Powerful, never-before-shared stories of chesed and achrayis (responsibility)—often expressed in the most unconventional and surprising ways</li>
<li>A penetrating look at the current stage of American Torah Jewry: its strengths, its tensions, and its unprecedented opportunities</li>
<li>A forward-looking charge on how Torah learning can continue to thrive amid the cultural, spiritual, and communal challenges of our time</li>
</ul>
<p>The conversation closes with a stirring vision for the future of the Jewish people—rooted in humility, courage, and unwavering commitment to Torah.</p>
<p>This is not a panel.</p>
<p>This is not a speech.</p>
<p>This is a once-in-a-generation conversation between the stewards of the two largest Torah institutions in America.</p>

<p>Dr. Phan reflects on his journey from Vietnam to the U.S., growing up as the son of a war veteran, and how those early experiences shaped his career in psychiatry.

<ul>
<li>The core lessons of resilience and how to build it</li>
<li>What to look for in Project SOAR, and why it matters</li>

<li>Helping children manage their own mental health</li>
<li>Simple, daily practices to strengthen emotional well-being</li>

            <title><![CDATA[The Story Behind the Greatest Storyteller feat. Rabbi Yoel Gold]]></title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Rabbi Yoel Gold, the storyteller behind the viral videos that have touched millions across the Jewish world.</p>
<p>Raised in Williamsburg and known back then simply as “Yoile,” Rabbi Gold opens up about his parents’ divorce and how those early challenges unexpectedly led him to the Adelphia Yeshiva, where he formed a life-changing bond with Rabbi Dovid Trenk zt”l. That relationship set him on a path to becoming a rebbe, a leader, and eventually a visionary content creator.</p>
<p>He shares the moment a child’s advice pushed him to start his first video, and how that single decision snowballed into a movement of storytelling with soul. It was shortly afterwards Rabbi Gold founded Hashkifa.</p>
<p>We also get a sneak peek into his latest and boldest production yet — releasing this Tisha B’Av — about traveling to the Vatican in an emotional and daring effort to locate the Menorah from the Beis HaMikdash.</p>
<p>To wrap things up, Rabbi Gold plays along with a few rapid-fire questions for some light fun and personal insight.</p>
<p>Tune in for a powerful journey of resilience, vision, and emunah. To watch the trailer and purchase the video, visit www.hashkifa.com</p>

            <title><![CDATA[A Mother, Surgeon and True Public Servant: The Story of Dr. Apoorva Ramaswamy ]]></title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Dr. Apoorva Ramaswamy—physician, mother, and wife of Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy—to explore her remarkable journey from India to the United States, and from medical student to a leading surgeon at The Ohio State University.</p>
<p>Dr. Ramaswamy shares how her father’s professional challenges shaped her resilience, how he redid his residency in a new country, and why she felt called to medicine in the first place. She opens up about the deeply rewarding and humbling experience of helping cancer patients rebuild both physically and emotionally, and the critical role that balance plays in recovery.</p>
<p>We also discuss the path she and Vivek are navigating as they aim to become Ohio’s next Governor and First Lady. Dr. Ramaswamy speaks candidly about what it means to “do it all”—as a mother, doctor, and partner supporting a bold political vision—and how she’s raising her children with the values and work ethic to achieve their own and unique American dream.</p>
<p>Finally, we look ahead to her vision for national unity and the contributions she hopes to bring to Ohio and the country if she becomes First Lady.</p>
<p>We conclude this conversation by paying tribute to Vivek's grandmother, Thankam Ammai, who passed away nearly a week after celebrating her 100th birthday. She was surrounded by her family members who all cherished her and will always carry her in their hearts - remembering the value of each other. This episode is a testament to perseverance, purpose, and the power of family.</p>
<p>Upcoming episodes will feature Rabbi Yoel Gold followed by Dr. Luan Phan. Stay tuned!!</p>

            <title><![CDATA[What is Da’as Torah? Featuring Rabbi Aaron Lopiansky ]]></title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>In this thought-provoking episode, we sit down with the Silver Spring Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Aaron Lopiansky Shlita, for a deep and insightful conversation.</p>
<p>We explore the essence of mesorah, how to properly choose a Rebbe or Rov, and the distinction between psak halacha and hadracha. The conversation then turns to one of the most frequently misunderstood concepts in the Torah world: Da’as Torah. Rabbi Lopiansky clarifies what it truly means, what it does not mean, and how it should be applied in our daily lives.</p>
<p>We also discuss real-world applications, including contemporary issues like the WZO, Kol Koreis, and the role of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah. Rabbi Lopiansky’s wisdom and clarity offer invaluable guidance for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of these crucial topics.</p>

            <title><![CDATA[“A Revolutionary Approach in Torah Learning” with Rabbi Dan Roth]]></title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Rabbi Dan Roth believes there is nothing more exciting than Torah wisdom and is devoting his life to bringing that excitement to Jews around the world. A revolutionary educator, he is the founder and director of Torah Live (www.torahlive.com), an organization that creates multimedia presentations and teaching resources on both halachic and hashkafic topics. Raised in London, Rabbi Roth is a graduate of the Mir Yeshiva and received semicha from the Chief Rabbinate of Israel. While teaching at Ohr Somayach, he recognized the need for making Torah relevant to our youth - and thus Torah Live was born! Rabbi Roth now spends most of his time script writing, filming, and traveling the world to inspire individuals and educators in how to utilize today’s technology to engage people in the beauty, and relevance, of Torah in our lives.</p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p style='text-align:start;'><span style='color: rgb(0,0,0);font-size: 16px;font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;'>Rabbi Shimon Russell is no ordinary therapist. In addition to being a Torah scholar in his own right, he received Semicha from the late Lakewood Rosh Yeshiva, Harav Shnuer Kotler, zt'l. After witnessing a tragic situation, Rabbi Russell was encouraged by his friends to explore the idea of becoming a therapist, which in those days was not a popular occupation in the frum community. After seeking guidance from Harav Shach zt”l, Rabbi Russell entered the field of behavioral health and gained much experience from his clients and his own struggling teen children. Rabbi Russell discusses the OTD (off the derech) phenomenon and his incredible personal journey learning this concept. Additionally, Rabbi Russell shared highlights of the latest bestselling and award winning book, 'Raising a Loving Family' which was written by Rabbi Goldstein, based solely on Rabbi Russell's teachings and lectures. All of this plus more on this episode of KOLOT.</span></p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>Chavie Bruk is the Co-CEO of Chabad Lubavitch of Montana and wife of last episode's guest, Rabbi Chaim Bruk. Chavie grew up in San Antonio, TX where her parents ran a Chabad house with Chavie playing a key role in the outreach they did.</p>
<p>Chavie thinks of herself as a juggler: leading a Jewish community with her sushi loving husband, focusing on my five rambunctious kids (who are adopted), living in the Wild West where it’s winter ALWAYS (or so it feels), seeking a bit of inner peace (ha, what’s that?) and doing it all while embracing the chaos and enjoying life. All of this and more on 'A Journey Like No Other.'</p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>Rabbi Chaim Bruk is the Co-CEO of Chabad Lubavitch of Montana. Growing up as a Brooklyn boy in Crown Hights, little Chaim had the unique opportunity to sit at the feet at the Lubavitcher Rebbe. We discuss his family's special relationship with the Rebbe, how his rebbiem reacted to the Rebbe's passing and how he continues the Rebbe's legacy.</p>
<p>Once married, Rabbi Bruk waited no more than a day after his first wedding anniversary to set foot to 'Big Sky Country' along with his beloved wife, Chavie. They started from scratch and now have multiple Chabad houses throughout the state which they helped build.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We also discuss their very difficult journey in infertility and the change of course they took when biological children seemed out of sight. We learn about the process of adoption and the many challenges, and yes, blessings, which come along with adoption. All of this and more on 'The Rabbi Goes West' with Rabbi Chaim Bruk.</p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>'Trauma and Triumph 2.0' is dedicated in loving memory to my great uncle, and our guest's father-in-law, Harav Meyer Scheinberg zt'l, Meyer ben Shmuel.</p>
<p>In this episode, we discuss why is it that people hold on to trauma for so long and how to get rid of it utilizing EMDR. We also discuss Prince Harry and his going public how EMDR was a game changer in his own personal struggles.</p>
<p>Towards the end, we have a special tribute to my Uncle Meyer where Zipa Leah talks about how her father-in- law showerd his children and grandchildren with intense love and affection. Zipa Leah then explains the effects in clinical terms, 'attachment theory'. It's a must listen to all parents and future parents!</p>

<p>I am a registered Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified EMDR Therapist, EMDR Approved Consultant, and Certified Clincial Trauma Professional.
