Cant be daf yomi when they miss an entire week

Has stopped releasing episodes every day. Very frustrating to keep up on a page/day if the podcast doesn’t release its episodes

Concise and Easy to Understand

Some of the Daily Dafs are difficult for me to understand. Rabbi Shmuel gives an easy to understand explanation and commentary, in just a few minutes.

Quite adequate Daf Yomi

Sometimes he speaks a bit too fast or slurs a word or two but for a quick and easy Daf Yomi, this is a super option.

perfect!

how better to start one's day then to begin with a lesson in clear well explained language about the daily daf? Rabbi H is a great teacher and distiller of complex ideas. if you want a little bit of learning every day, this is a great opportunity.

Understandable and Profound

Rabbi Shmuel Herzfeld has done a great thing by recording these podcasts that are at one time understandable — without needing a working proficiency in Yeshivish — and at the same time profound. Rabbi Herzfeld does not try to go through the entire text of the daily Talmud page; rather, he focuses on an important spiritual message from the material. This is an excellent way to step a foot into the sea of the Talmud.

Champion of accessibility

What an incredible service... Once again Rabbi Shmuel demonstrates his ability to make Torah and serving Hashem fun and accessible... This podcast makes Torah learning so easy... To be able to incorporate Torah learning into my daily life by just pushing a button and listening for 5-6 minutes is so easy. And as usual the Rabbi's energy and enthusiasm bursting makes this a double great way to prepare for the day on my morning commute. Thanks again!!

Life-changing

This podcast, the latest of Rabbi Herzfeld’s forays into blending orthodoxy and modernity, is the most incredible way to begin my day. It’s accessible to those who’ve never learned a page of gemara, yet thought-provoking for those who learn every day. I listen to a number of podcasts of different types- comedy, news, policy- but had never found a Torah or Judaism-focused podcast that worked for me. Having a daily dose of daf has helped me remember to say brachot, wash my hands in the morning, and stay focused on Torah in general.
