Hello? Hello? Friends?
I have a question…

Now I have a halakhic (relating to Jewish law) question…
Yes please:

OK
When you are eating the Krembo, that is the most explosive invention,
And even in the winter there is inside of it's pocket,
Biscuit, Biscuit, Biscuit

A round biscuit in which that on top of it is the cream
The cream
And when the eating of the Krembo, that is the most explosive invention,
And even in the winter there is inside of it's pocket,
Biscuit, Biscuit, A round biscuit in which on top of it is the cream

The cream, The cream, The cream and the biscuit like are one piece they are,The cream and the biscuit are like one piece they are,

The cream and the biscuit,The biscuit and the cream.

The question is - On Shabas
The question is - On Shabas

If someone that doesn't like or something that doesn't want for any reason a to eat the biscuit whether it is allowed to separate it from the cream?

To put it aside - And he will just eat the cream?

And the eating of the Krembo, that is the most explosive invention, And even in the winter there is inside of it's pocket,

Biscuit, Biscuit, A round biscuit in which on top of it is the cream

The cream,The cream and the biscuit like are on piece they are, 

The cream, and the biscuit are like one piece they are, The cream and the biscuit,The biscuit and cream

The question is on Shabas, The question is on Shabas, If the person that doesn't like if someone that doesn't like or something that doesn't want for any reason a to eat the biscuit whether it is allowed to separate it from the cream? To put it aside , And he will just eat the cream? Apparently it is not allowed - To separate them, It is not allowed to separate them,It is not allowed to separate them, Even though it is one piece.

But in reality they are like to two different items that are eaten

For in the case that you separate the biscuit from the cream

That there would stay with the biscuit a little bit of cream

That it would be recognizable

That there would stay with the biscuit a little bit of cream

That it would be recognizable

In that way it would be permissible

Then, Then, Then, Then it would be recognizable

And the eating of the Krembo, that is the most explosive invention, And even in the winter there is inside of it's pocket.

Biscuit, Biscuit, Biscuit, A round biscuit in which on top of it is the cream

The cream,One second I'm confused, The cream and the [laugh] biscuit like are on piece they are, The cream and the biscuit are like one piece they are, The cream and the biscuit, The biscuit and cream

COMING PURIM 2007

THE YESHIVA BOYS CHOIR 3: SHABCHI

Some people have e-mailed asking when the next podcast is, so here is a small update. It's been very busy both at Sameach and Neshama Orchestra where Dov and Sruly work and it's been hard to get together to do a new show.

So we are taking a short vacation and we will be recording a new podcast during the week of January 29th. By then we hope to have preview clips (or more) from Ohad's new CD, and updates on some other projects that are being worked on right now.

We apologize for the delay and once we come back we will be back on our regular bi-weekly schedule.

In order to get ready for the next podcast, we're asking you to send us your e-mails and comments. E-mail us at SameachMusic@aol.com, we'd also love to hear what you thought of the most recent HASC concert featuring Avraham Fried, Ohad, Shalsheles Jr., Dedi, Dovid Gabay, Baruch Levine & special guest Cantor Yitzchok Meir Helfgot. Email us your favorite moments and we will read them on the air.
 

Chanukah may be over but we still have some very big things happening at Sameach Music.

Matisyahu is about to release his first full DVD, titled LIVE IN TEL AVIV. This DVD features all of your favorite Matisyahu hit songs. You can pre-order the DVD which comes with a bonus AUDIO CD featuring 6 songs remixed and sung by Matisyahu by clicking here.

Ever wonder what the singers of today sounded like when they were first starting out? Buy a copy of the Amudei Sheish Boys Choir to hear Avraham Fried, Mendy Wald, Yisroel Williger and Shloime Dachs as young soloists ... Click here to sample the CD

Ari Goldwag can now add Podcaster to his always growing list of talents. Ari has released the first two episodes from his newly minted Jewish Music podcast. You can hear many songs from Ari's ablums in addition to special treats like a not yet released Ari Goldwag tune and a unreleased duet with Yaakov Shwekey. Download the 1st podcast here and the 2nd one here.

Ohad's follow up CD was unfortunately delayed from being released before Chanukah. No need to worry as we are expecting news on the albums status soon. We don't know when it will be out and there is no official release date. When we know something concrete, we will report it.

Dov and Sruly will IYH get back into the studio later this week to record a brand new podcast (#31!) featuring all the latest music news and previews to keep you entertained and up to date.

If you aren't able to attend the concert, or aren't interested in the tickets you can still participate and be eligible to win a prize package including at least 2 CD's and 1 DVD that you will be able to choose from a list of current and new releases.

If you want to get a head start on the contest here is roughly how it will work.

We are asking for your help in promoting the podcast. The person who brings in the most traffic will win the tickets.

The easiest way to participate is tell your friends about the show, and when they download the show, tell them to e-mail us at sameachmusic@aol.com that YOU (make sure they tell us your first and last name) recommended them to listen to the show. Each e-mail will count as 1 referral. The contest ends Novermber 8^th at midnight.

Another way for you to win is to e-mail other websites, blogs, e-mail message boards, message groups and tell them about the podcast. Ask them to link to the show, or write an article about the show. You can e-mail or call newspapers, radio stations or even get Jewish podcasters or radio hosts to talk about the show. E-mail us the website, blog or message board that you got to link to us (make sure the webmaster or site author will vouch that you asked them to promote the show.)

For every website, blog or message board that you secure that will count as 2 referrals. Everyone is eligible, think big, if you get a newspaper to write up the show that will count as 3 referrals.

When the contest ends, the person that has the most referrals will win. You only have a short time. Records will be kept of every e-mail or site that is recommended. If we catch anyone pulling anything non kosher they will be disqualified. We will be verifying what comes in.

Think outside the box, the goal is to help spread the word about this great new show. If you e-mail us something that's huge, we may count it as 4 referrals. E-mail us a digital picture of posters that you put up in your neighborhood, or at your school. Be creative, and of course make sure you have a record of it, take a picture, mail it to us! Good Luck!

We hope IYH to bring you show #3 right after Succos. We will have a lot to play for you, lots of news and a free cd giveaway contest.

Thank you for downloading the show and making it a huge success, today we had our 5,000th download!
