From Bokur-Atone, Florida, this is Behind the Bima.

On this episode, the rabbis are joined by Rabbi Daniel Kalash,

Manahal of the Waterbury Massifdom, whose approach to Chinuch

lends emotional honesty with serious spiritual expectations.

Rabbi Kalish confronts a pressing question.

Are we raising a more fragile generation, or are we finally making room for emotional death?

Robich-Kalish discusses resilience, vulnerability, pressure, and how to demand growth without

sacrificing connection. All this and more, Behind the Bima.

This season of Behind the Bima is sponsored by Julie Charleston and Darrell Benjamin in honor

of their grandparents, Morton and Malvina Charleston, and their children, Ruby and Maccabi Benjamin. Welcome back to Behind the Bima. Super excited to bring our conversation with Rev. Daniel Kalish, Manal of Waterbury, Yeshiva. Somebody is just overflowing with love. It sort of represents a continuation of the conversation that we had with Rav Moshe Don Kestinbaum, who also was in Waterbury, and brings that same approach, attitude, love, and validation, and so on, we'll continue with Rabbi Kaelish. And then maybe we'll have someone who represents another perspective that's coming up in the next few weeks. We're looking forward to that too. But for now, Robin Moskowitz, how are you? I am great, Robert Goldberg. Now, we had a beautiful Shabbas with everybody Kalish, as you alluded to.

Fascinating conversations, but one of the highlights for me was something that I know is very near and dear to your heart. I don't know if we've ever spoken about it on the behind Bima. I have no idea where you're going. And that is Shal Shudis.

That Shal Shudis ended in a dance that was spontaneous.

And it was one of the most... And that is Shal Shudis. That Shal Shudis ended in a dance that was spontaneous.

And it was one of the most powerful, it was very, very powerful experience.

And I admire you because you've been on this Shalashudis crusade now for maybe two, three years.

And you had to pull people along, including myself.

But I'm all in. I'm a chasseh now of Shalashidstis. And you've had to pull people along, including myself, but I'm all in.

I'm a chasseh now of Shalashiris. And I just wanted to thank you for that and give you the opportunity to speak about why Shalashid means so much to you and why other people should maybe consider rethinking. Well, first of all, you might be the first person that ever put Shal Shadishutis and crusade in the same sense.

I love Shalashitas.

I live for Shal Shatis.

I'm a Shal Shias and Crusade in the same sense. I love Shalashrishah.

I live for Shal Shat Shias.
