The Influence of The Mainstream | Reacting to Rabbi Shais Taub & Rabbi YY Jacobson | Ep. 59
In this episode of the Greeting Moshiach Podcast, we address a clear reality within Lubavitch: Most people’s views on Moshiach are shaped not by direct study of the Rebbe’s sichos, but by what the “mainstream” voices choose to say, avoid, or dismiss. Episode 59 examines how influence works in practice: How communal belief is formed through repetition, silence, and authority Why ideas not spoken publicly are automatically perceived as “fringe” How prominent speakers shape what feels “normal,” regardless of sources Why mocking or dismissing the Rebbe as Moshiach replaces honest engagement The difference between learning the Rebbe’s words and absorbing atmosphere We react to clips from well-known Lubavitch speakers - not to attack individuals, but to analyze the messaging, the framing, and the consequences. This episode argues a simple point: When people don’t learn the sichos inside, the mainstream becomes the teacher. The Rebbe spoke clearly in 5751–5752 about: The completion of avodas habirurim The presence and revelation of Moshiach The responsibility to recognize and greet him If those teachings are absent from public discourse, people naturally conclude they are not central—or not real. We encourage listeners to: Learn Besuras HaGeulah in order, start to finish Study the sichos of 5751 & 5752 inside Stop mistaking silence for neutrality Return to the Rebbe as the primary authority 🎧 Like, subscribe, and share We want the full hisgalus of the Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach— teikef u’miyad mamash. 📩 Questions or thoughts?

The Sources - Every Claim Backed Up | Ep. 58
People asked for sources. This episode is the receipts. In our recent reaction to Rabbi @manisfriedman , we disagreed with a bunch of claims — and listeners wanted to know: where are you getting this from? So we made an episode that’s basically a reading-inside “source sheet”: the Rebbe’s words, inside, with the key claims spelled out clearly. To watch that episode: Was the Rebbe Against “Yechi”? | Reacting ... We start by acknowledging something real: for many years, it was absolutely a known approach not to publicize “the Rebbe is Moshiach” in a way that pushes Jews away from Chassidus. Then we show why that framework shifts dramatically in the Rebbe’s later years — when the Rebbe says the avodah has moved forward and the shlichus is now to receive / greet Moshiach in a literal way, and when the Rebbe publicly encourages the singing of Yechi. This episode isn’t about vibes. It’s about text. Read it, hear it, and decide if these points are “made up” — or exactly what the Rebbe is saying. What you’ll hear in this episode: The early “don’t do things that distance Jews from Chassidus” sources Chayei Sarah 5752: shlichus defined as bringing the Geulah ha’amitis v’hashleimah, and what changes now The Rebbe’s own framing: there is a Moshiach of the generation, and now he is being revealed/actualized Public encouragement of Yechi in 770 (and the proof the Rebbe could stop a niggun when he wanted) “Ein melech b’lo am” — kabbolas hamalchus is the people’s job Mishpatim 5752: the Rebbe speaks about "Pe'ulaso Shel Melech HaMoshiach" and the world shifting accordingly The Rambam framework: b’chezkat Moshiach → Moshiach vadai, and what the Rebbe says about “open our eyes” to see it Links / texts / sources (All sources referenced in the episode are listed below in the “Claims & Sources” section pinned in the comments.)

Farbrengen With Rabbi Fisch | Ep. 57
Grew Up Around Lubavitch – But the Rebbe Changed Everything” A Personal Journey from Borough Park to the Threshold of Geulah In this very special episode of the Greeting Moshiach Podcast, Simcha Fisch and Levi Polichenco sit down with his father-in-law — a man whose personal history is deeply intertwined with Lubavitch, yet whose journey toward recognizing the Rebbe’s unique role unfolded gradually, honestly, and powerfully. This conversation begins generations earlier, with a grandfather who worked in 770 during the Frierdiker Rebbe’s time, and traces a path through Borough Park, non-Lubavitch yeshivos, early exposure to Crown Heights, the parades, the farbrengens, and the unmistakable presence of the Rebbe himself. Rather than arriving through structured Chassidus learning or ideology, this story centers on something far more direct: the Rebbe. The experience of standing near him. Hearing him say Gut Shabbos. Watching history unfold in real time. In Part 1, we explore: • Growing up “around” Lubavitch without formally being Lubavitch • Early debates about Tefillin and Moshiach — before having the sources • The Rebbe as a living, present reality (not an abstract idea) • First visits to 770 and the emotional impact of being near the Rebbe • The pre-internet era: hotline recordings, tapes, and word-of-mouth • The shift from Moshiach as a distant, mystical figure to a real אדם בשר ודם • The mounting clarity of the early נ״א–נ״ב period • The atmosphere leading into Yud-Alef Nissan and the Gulf War era This is not a polished retrospective. It’s a raw, firsthand account of how awareness developed as it was happening — before narratives were fixed, before camps formed, before history was written. And this is only the beginning. Part 1 brings us right up to the doorstep of Nun-Beis. Part 2 will take us inside Nun-Gimmel itself. Stay tuned. The story is just getting started. 📩 Questions or thoughts?
