Living Lchaim

The world is full of incredible people, and this podcast brings you real conversations with those who have powerful stories to share. From inspiring individuals in Israel to Jewish people who’ve faced and overcome life’s toughest challenges, we dive into their journeys, struggles, and triumphs. Hosted by Yaakov Langer on Living Lchaim, these stories will move you, challenge you, and leave you inspired. Whether it’s faith, resilience, success, or personal growth, you’ll hear firsthand how they pushed forward. Follow now for eye-opening conversations you won’t hear anywhere else.

Inspiration for the Nation with Yaakov Langer

Rabbi Reuven Feinstein, Rosh Yeshiva of Staten Island and one of the Gedolei Hador, looks back on his childhood growing up in the Bronx, just blocks from Yankee Stadium - where he was beaten for wearing a yarmulke and learned early what it meant to live with emunah and dignity. In this raw and moving conversation, he shares memories of his father, Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, the Gadol Hador, describing a home with no ga’avah, no pretense - just Torah, humility, and love. He speaks about antisemitism in 1940s America, the lessons of parenting, leadership, and humility, and how his father’s approach to Torah learning and chesed shaped generations. From stories of the Shabbos table, to his views on mental health, modern challenges, and faith under pressure, this interview is a living portrait of Torah greatness, Jewish resilience, and quiet strength in a world that often forgets both.

Calev Jean: How a Haitian Music Producer Found Judaism on Twitter

Rabbi Eli Riesel was a working professional who walked away from everything to return to kollel. What followed was not inspiration overnight, but a life turned completely upside down. He found himself buried under debt projected to last up to 85 years, facing legal pressure, personal collapse, and a future that seemed impossible to escape. As his situation spiraled, he encountered a challenge far greater than money or reputation. Against the unanimous advice of his lawyers, Rav Chaim Kanievsky gave him guidance that defied logic and conventional strategy. Rabbi Riesel faced an impossible choice. Would he listen to the gadol hador, or follow the system that promised safety? His decision led him through federal prison, deep spiritual reckoning, and a survival story few have ever heard. This is the untold backstory of emunah, mesirus nefesh, bitachon, and what it means to rebuild a life when everything is stripped away.

SPECIAL EPISODE: Yanky Super: I Was Shot At The Bondi Beach Attack. A Miracle Saved Me!

Henchy Cohen opens up about her parents’ divorce - a split that forced her, at just seven years old, to live between two opposite worlds: her father’s Hasidic community and her mother’s secular life. She talks about the confusion, the judgment, and the quiet strength it took to hold her family together while figuring out who she was. Through it all, Henchy never lost her sense of faith or drive - turning a painful divide into the foundation for a life built on clarity, compassion, and conviction.

Henchy Cohen: Staying Frum After My Chasidish Mother Went "Off The Derech"

Howie Danao grew up in an affluent Tel Aviv home as the adopted son of a secular Israeli family, alongside his Filipino mother who worked as a caretaker. A gifted singer fluent in Hebrew, he rose to the semi-finals of a major Israeli reality competition and later served in the IDF even before he gained citizenship. A transformative Jewish-identity program pushed him to confront his past and his purpose, sending him on a spiritual journey that led to conversion, religious life, and using his music to share his story of faith, belonging, and love for Israel.

Howie Danao: A Filipino Child Raised by Israelis — From Outsider to Belonging

Yehuda Sabiner grew up in Har Nof, in the heart of Jerusalem, within a Ger chasidish community where his childhood doctor made a powerful impact on him. That early influence set him on a remarkable path, and he went on to become the first fully chasidish, Israel born doctor. After October 7th, he joined the IDF’s search and rescue efforts, bringing his medical skills into some of the most difficult moments the country has faced. In this interview, he reflects on his journey and shares how he manages to balance the different worlds of family, chasidus, medicine, and national service.

Dr. Yehuda Sabiner: The First Chasidish Doctor In Israel Who Paved A New Path

I used to think astrology was nonsense - until I met Rabbi Yitzchok Aharon Pinkesz. Rabbi Pinkesz reveals how Judaism and the Torah have always contained a hidden wisdom about the stars - what he calls “Kosher Astrology.”

He explains how your birth chart reflects your divine mission, why timing in life is never random, and how God uses celestial cycles to guide human destiny.

This isn’t superstition - it’s a deep exploration of how the universe, faith, and free will are intertwined in ways most of us never imagined. We even discuss what Kosher Astrology says about Trump.

R' Yitzchok Aharon Pinkesz: Kosher Astrology Is Real & It Will Change How You See Hashem

From Amish to Jewish??? Yes. You read that right. Briana Leapley, now Nechama Leapley, shares her inspiring journey from Amish life in rural Kentucky to becoming an Orthodox Jewish convert in Brooklyn. Leaving behind her family and traditions, she navigates intense culture shock, finds guidance from rabbis, and embraces a life of Torah and mitzvot. Her story is one of faith, courage, and transformation, moving from Amish simplicity to Jewish identity, and from Briana to Nechama, with her heart set on Israel.

A Chasidic scholar with a complicated halachic past sets off on a startling quest to find a convert bride among the Amish. It is a gripping, dramatic story that blends suspense, sharp dialogue, and deep Torah ideas. I actually mentioned this book to Nechama, the former Amish girl I interviewed, and a copy is already on its way to her.

The novel pulls you in with its mix of humor, intensity, and rich theological debate. It also includes powerful anti missionary arguments that unfold through bold conversations. In plain language: it is riveting, nail biting, and impossible to put down.

Nechama Leapley: How an Amish Girl Found Her Way to Orthodox Judaism

Born in post-communist Poland with no access to Jewish life, Yakov Wasilewicz’s journey from isolation to inspiration is nothing short of miraculous.

His story is a moving testament to how one man’s determination and music keep the light of heritage burning.
