ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, we sit down with Rabbi Simcha Dessler to reflect on the remarkable legacy of his father, Rabbi Nachum Zev Dessler zt”l, his grandfather Rabbi Eliyahu Eliezer Dessler zt”l, and his great grandfather, Rav Reuven Dessler zt”l. Rabbi Dessler shares personal memories, profound insights, and the values that have shaped generations of Torah leaders. Together, we explore how the Dessler family’s deep commitment to mussar and chinuch continues to influence Jewish education — from the hallowed halls of the Gateshead Yeshiva to the thriving Torah institutions of Cleveland and beyond. Listeners will gain a unique perspective on what it means to build a legacy rooted in ruchniyus, love for every talmid, and an unwavering dedication to Klal Yisrael.
