thanks! I was able to follow all the Hebrew. And now a suggestion for a new podcast if you think it will be helpful; ;I thought of it when you said “l’hitlonen “AL”… how about l’histakel=lhistakel b… or al… or how to use it correctly? thanks again!

Guy- זה הדבר הכי טוב בכול העולם !
thanks for going to the trouble of putting this סיום together. I hope you continue to do this with each new episode ( or even with the old episodes too). This is a fantastic way to study- first learning the words and meaning in the English format, then afterwards listening to the same episode in all Hebrew format ( like in a Hebrew Ulpan ) . it is a fantastic learning tool !! I would sign up to be a patron based on this alone, except my wife is already a patron ( is it ok to have 2 patrons in the same family ? ). Anyway , thank you again. this is really terrific. I have to go listen to it again now . L’het
