As we approach our 100th episode, Zacharia and Reuven turn the mic inward — to the Chabad community itself.
We began nearly a year ago, with a simple question: Has Chabad’s leadership been living with unspoken post-traumatic stress since Gimmel Tammuz?
Now, a powerful anonymous letter has surfaced - in response to the recent suicide of a young man — one that accuses Chabad of a generation gap so deep that it’s left some young people unseen, unheard, and in pain.
In this week’s Farbrengen, we confront that gap head-on:
What happens when a movement’s system overtakes its mission?
When the name of the game becomes survival, instead of soul?
Through stories of heartbreak, honesty, and hope, Reuven and Zacharia wrestle with the hard questions:
Have we confused the Rebbe with the mission?
Can Dirah Betachtonim still speak to a 17-year-old bochur struggling to belong?
Join this raw, soul-stirring conversation — where the system meets the soul, and the mission comes home again.
