Understanding the Role of Rebbetzins
Speaker 1Welcome to , and here's Modi . Hi everybody , welcome back to , and here is Modi . Part two , with Rabbi Gavriel Bellino in the studio . I was going to discuss . You know what I want to talk about ? What Rebbetzins , oh goodbbetsons , oh good lord what is that ? What is that ? This is what is that it's not refreshing , isn't that refreshing ? It's a blank slate you never know what's gonna set her off or what's gonna , she's not gonna know . The other day we had someone on the show and they were discussing Dina in the Bible .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1And like the story of what happened with her and she's like wait , wait , what happened with Dina ?
Speaker 2Oh my God , spoiler alert . I can't , I can't .
Speaker 3I can't go into all of it . What ?
Speaker 1happened to her . It was like someone came up and I forgot how it came up in the I was waiting .
Speaker 2All she wanted to talk about was Matisse Bifat with me . It's unbelievable . It's a reasonable thing to discuss .
Speaker 1I don't have the craft to discuss that .
Speaker 2You brought it up , I didn't bring it up .
Speaker 1I can't , I can't , I can't . I didn't say anything . Fun , easy , you said it Fun easy you started it Go ahead . Our listeners told me that I love you because it's fun and easy and no one's got big opinions and no , and we're not doing any of that . Rebbiton , rebbiton , a rebbiton okay I want to .
Speaker 3I want to discuss rebbitons .
Speaker 1Okay , I have theories . A rebbiton is somebody who is one of the titles , is the the , the wife of the rabbi a rebbiton .
Speaker 1Now there's different types of Now there's different types of Rebetzins . There's different types of Rebetzins . Some of them are , first of all , it's a title . It's not rabbi's wife . Rabbi's wife is a description . Rebetzin is a title . It's like Her Royal Highness Kate , princess of Wales . It's she married and she got that title . Okay , period , that's a Rebetzin . Now there are Rebetzins who are . They run the whole thing , they run the entire show . When you get to a Chabad house for an event or you get to a Chabad center , there's a guy comes out hi , I'm Rabbi Zalman and uh , this , and that they're very fair . And then behind him comes hi , I'm Rabbi Tzanchani , and you know that this who , this is who you have to deal with for sound lights events everything she runs the show period , everything from A to Z , the .
Speaker 1She runs the , the , the , the kids school , the , the elderly program , everything . She is hi , I'm rabbits and honey . That's like the introduction . Then then there's the ones that are like I don't like to be called a rabbits inetzin , I'm not a Rebbetzin . My name is Stacy Eskowitz and I'm married to the rabbi . I'm just married to the rabbi , I'm not a Rebbetzin . There's those , right , those are usually the biggest Rebbetzins because they keep an eye on him . They keep an eye on the rabbi just to make sure the people that come into his life that run the rest of the stuff , even though on the rabbi , just to make sure the people that come into his life that run the rest of the stuff she's , even though she's like I'm , I'm , I'm a physical therapist and I'm not a rebbiton , I'm , I'm okay . So that that's one of the different types of . And then there's rebbitons that you don't have to marry a rabbi to become a rebbiton what are those ?
Speaker 1dina or have Shalom is a Rebbitin without any . This is a woman who has some kind of look because she's a rabbi-ish but she inherited . But she inherited too , but it's also she's a Rebbitin . She helps people , she does things . Her husband's a lawyer and she's running a million . She's a Rebbitin . She's a Rebbitin , she's helping , she's teaching , she's . She got that title .
Speaker 2She said well , she said I say she inherited it , but she , she takes her family tradition very seriously .
Speaker 1She's also blessed with a little bit . That's Dina . I'm talking about all the women . She's amazing . You know they're Rebetsons , so that's like the different types of Rebetsons . I just was thinking . I don't know why I was . I know why I was thinking about that . I had a little weed and was jogging on the treadmill and that's what was going through my head that's where that came into my head .
Speaker 3I was thinking about Rebbetzins while I'm on the treadmill , a little stoned so it's like if you marry a rabbi , that means you become a Rebbetzin and some people really rise to the occasion , it sounds like , and takes that yes , like you can take that very seriously and I mean it's a strange thing , because a leadership position that you don't , that , that that you get by virtue of sleeping with a rabbi , is like a strange thing .
Speaker 2You don't necessarily .
Speaker 1Why does he sleep and can't just be married to the rabbi ?
Speaker 2Okay , that they should look you had to go like to the next . That's what makes a Rebetzin , that's what seals the deal .
Speaker 1She becomes a Rebetzin in the chuppah , where before she slept with the rabbi . Well , they had to consummate , okay , but still and now she's a Rebetzin . But she was still because she married him . So that's okay , that's lovely . How does this ? All I try to do is keep this a clean podcast . That's all I try to do , and my rabbit comes on and schmutzes it immediately and you I never know when your next thing is going to come out .
Speaker 3I am so much cleaner than he is . No , you're not , I've read your books .
Speaker 2I haven't read your books .
Speaker 1I haven't read your books .
Speaker 3Oh my God , I have a turban . She's like the cover of it .
Speaker 1I can't even Brown paper bag .
Speaker 3I might be a little bit of a Robinson , you are , you are .
Speaker 1When you do all of your philanthropic work , like when anything happens in this whole world . In Ukraine she's .
Speaker 2There's t-shirts and sweatshirts and people are meeting in synagogues and she's , there's t-shirts and sweatshirts . And people are meeting in synagogues and she's running sitting around a challah bulky . She's giving out sweatshirts . She's no , she's the tags also .
Speaker 3That's that's rabbits in , e that's rabbits in e that's rabbits in e I feel like I've become more rabbits in e since I met you yes and not you he does that , I'm just kidding Okay .
Speaker 2Okay .
Speaker 3No , you're my favorite rabbi , you know that .
Speaker 2You know how low the bar is .
Speaker 3No , that's not true .
Speaker 2No no , how horrible everybody is .
Speaker 3No , you keep saying that that might be true , but I feel like you guys have given me a different lens through which to view Judaism .
Speaker 1Yes , people that listen to our podcast , or people , people , some of them , who are completely reforming conservative jews and just like this is so much fun and they're listening to , like listening to what's happening in the orthodox world , too , or in the reform worlds , and they're so this passover we just had , I mean , it's eight days of not eating bread and but like being certain , but like to people who reform Jews and conservative Jews , which are Jews , they are Jews and they're just not going crazy . Okay , we're not going to eat bread and pizza , but I'm not going to go nuts and clean the hole and this and do that Again , the choosing people , not the chosen people , and they get to hear this podcast and they hear all the other views of what's happening in the Jewish world and in the world in general .
Speaker 3One .
Speaker 1And , by the way , you said , don't talk about your Rebetzin . I will tell you , his Rebetzin is the only person smarter than him . She's so smart . How upset is he right now ?
Speaker 2Furious .
Speaker 1Furious . You're furious right now

You are an orthodox rabbi . Yeah , we're all a mixed bag . Well , I think that I don't know , maybe we are , but you and I said , I think you're um , you're right , you're sad .
Speaker 2I'm not . This is not Okay , he's not .
Speaker 1Tzadik .
Speaker 3You both are . Can I have an opinion ? He has Tzadik qualities .
Speaker 2I have certain things that I'm into . He has Tzadik qualities . I have my things .
Speaker 1But to throw Tzadik around like that .
Speaker 3I'm not . First of all , have you ever heard me say Not me just calling you not a T .
Speaker 1That's the best , that's fine , that's fine Is that the everybody else is like this rabbi's a tzaddik .
Speaker 2This is literally Ashkenazi but I do Him A tzaddik Are you out of your mind ?
Speaker 1Are you out of your mind ? No , Are you ? That is hysterical . Have we met ?
Speaker 3She calls you a tzaddik and I go is a righteous person . Those of you who don't know ?
Speaker 1Not this guy , and there's only 36 on earth at the time . What do you mean 36 ?
Speaker 2Yeah , the 36 . I mean , that's not theology Is that true . Who's perfect ? No one's perfect .
Speaker 1She's already upset , she's already ready to go , she's ready to get angry about something in Judaism she's like and how many of the 36 are women . Are there any women ?
Speaker 3Are there . She's already . Look at her . She's on guard , she's already ready to pounce on us .
Speaker 1Oh , a new philosophy I haven't learned in Judaism .
Speaker 2I have a 37 .
Speaker 1How angry are they going to make me ? Yes , at any given moment there's 36 righteous .
Speaker 2What if it's a conjoined twin ? Is it one or two ?
Speaker 1No , oh shut up , oh shut up , oh , my God , leave us alone . Just enjoy it 36 people are on earth at any given time that bring their energy and they're hidden , and they're hidden . You don't know who they are . What are they under the fucking couch ?
Speaker 2What do you ?
Speaker 1mean .
Speaker 3They're not in hiding , they're hidden .
Speaker 1You had to throw F in there .
Speaker 3I said that both of you are sadi and you're telling me now no , it's not true , you can't be , you have your moments of your tzaddik .
Speaker 1When you do your fundraising , for whatever causes you do it . You're a little tzaddik in you . When I'm trying to get people to laugh , and you have a little tzaddik in you To be a full-blown tzaddik , this is another level and he's a tzaddik . This is another level and he's a tzaddik . He runs a synagogue . Everybody feels welcome .
Speaker 3But why are you telling me there are only 36 ? Go ahead .
Speaker 1Here , you know what I'm done . Go ahead , go , go , go .
Hidden Tzaddikim and Exercise Routines
Speaker 1By the way , I don't even know the history .
Speaker 2I don't even know , I don't even know the history . You are lying . No , I don't even know the history of this .
Speaker 1You are lying .
Speaker 2No , I don't know the history of it . I know we talk about it in like Hasidic storytelling , that there are 36 holy tzaddikim that are hidden . And you know you don't necessarily it's , by the way . It's a way of getting you to treat people that seem horrible like better right , because it's always like the worst guy . It's always the worst person in the room , yep person in the room , that's the hidden sodic , that's right . So if you treat everybody horrible as if they're actually a hidden sodic , so maybe the world will be in a better place . That's probably what's going on there , but one of the traditions is that there are 36 holy , 36 righteous people . By the way , I say there's zero righteous people .
Speaker 3No .
Speaker 2Zero . Everyone is fallible , everyone makes mistakes .
Speaker 1Everyone is a human , but sometimes , sometimes mistakes are made with something that's learned from it and something that's amazing from it . Oh halavai . But everyone makes mistakes .
Speaker 2Everyone loses their temper , everyone has their moments of being off , so there is no righteous . There are people that try to do good , but we don't know who they are .
Speaker 1We don't know who they are . Maybe they're in Alaska . You haven't met them .
Speaker 2I'm not going to .
Speaker 1Alaska . I'm just saying but they're there , it's a nice thing . That's what we teach , that's what we . I've started my own religion look at you in Modi-ism no , it's a nice way to think that the energy of these people are controlling the world from completely falling apart that's one of the ways of looking at it and they cause a ripple effect of good enough to cover the bad .
Speaker 3So why are they the ones Dr ?
Speaker 1Wayne Dyer speaks about this a lot and he's not Jewish and doesn't speak of it Siddiquim . There's people who have energy in the world that keep the world from falling apart . You can't just have all negative energy .
Speaker 3But why is it the person who's usually you think is horrible ?
Speaker 2So that's part of the storytelling . It's not necessarily part of it .
Speaker 3So tell the story no , but that is a trope in storytelling .
Speaker 1So when you're dealing with somebody who's horrible , but it brought something good in you out of it or whatever it is . That person caused that and it's not going to be a tzaddik . Oh , it's a rabbi with a white beard and uh and uh and and teaches Torah , and it doesn't have to be that I mean there's a , there's a whole there's a whole intellectual history to it .
Speaker 2It really like starts actually in the Zohar , where it's always the that wisdom comes from this unexpected place . It's always like the kid wandering around in the field that tells you the supernal secrets of the world , then , like in the storytelling of Chabad , actually becomes a thing under the Friedrich Rebbe . Yes , that , it's like that . It's the hidden tzaddikim , that the people you would think are the worst guy in shul turns out to be the holiest most righteous and then it has life .
Speaker 2Karbach has lots of stories that are like , based on the Friedricher retelling of that Zohar the Friedricher , the Rebbe , who was the Rebbe before the Rebbe , that so that's where that's where it's coming from . As theology , I have no idea , but that's a nice thing to say . 36 holy , by the way . I wish there were 36 holy like righteous people ?
Speaker 1I hope so , otherwise the world would be completely falling apart . It is falling apart , but not completely . Fine , you're welcome . That's it . We discussed this . What do people say ? We're gonna disagree to disagree . We're gonna agree to disagree , yeah let's agree .
Speaker 2No , I like , let's agree . I hate people saying just disagree , let's agree to agree oh , agree to agree .
Speaker 1What do you mean ? We're going to disagree to disagree .

My father has the synagogue . He gets there Saturday an hour before anybody opens it up . My father loves that . Loves that , your father . So now you're the one opening the gym . Yeah , that's so funny , it's so good .
Speaker 3Why do you have a key to the gym ?
Speaker 2First of all , it's a combination . Perrielle Number two , I'm a very responsible person .
Speaker 1It's not one of these spa gyms that Leo and I go to . It's some like bro-y . So what ? We're not so bro-y .
Speaker 2I can be bro-y , it depends who's there . It's a CrossFit gym . It's great , it's the best .
Speaker 3Okay , I just don't understand why you have a key .
Speaker 1But you ask you exercise whatever you can do , also wait .
Speaker 3Walk . I'm not going to be able to put writing on this , because you guys are talking over each other , nothing happens .
Speaker 2Nothing happens at four in the morning . There are no distractions , there are no emergencies . Usually there are no bizarre texts . There's nothing I have to deal with . I know that I can work out at four o'clock in the morning and then I know that I got it in . And if I did it later , when I did it later , when I do it later , always something comes up , or I feel tired or of course you're tired .
Speaker 3You're waking up at 3 in the morning you get into the rhythm , you learn it .
Speaker 1It's the best it works for him whatever works for you , 4am works for him , me in afternoon in a Celsius a Celsius drink I have , so I drink that also in the morning and if there's no show at night . A little hit of weed and I'm in heaven . That's the trick . But you have to find some kind of exercise that you enjoy . If you don't enjoy it , don't do it .
Speaker 2It has to be , whatever it is .

Parental Lessons and LGBTQ+ Importance
Speaker 1next door . Have you ever seen the show Everybody Loves Ray ? Yeah , his parents think he is like the… Tzadik Kochav Tzadik Hashamayim , the star of… they did . Notav Tzadik Hashemayim , the star of the whole . They did not Hilarious , they did not . He doesn't even mean it . Hayzak was a very long holiday Modi ?
Speaker 2I don't think so .
Speaker 3Okay , you're an only child .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2Yes , yeah . Who could believe Me too , yeah .
Speaker 1So and then they there next door , it's literally everyone loves Raymond on 15th Street .
Speaker 2Yeah , that's a great analogy . I like to say I think of it like a French farce , like a door will slam and then someone will come back with a pie .
Speaker 1No , I've seen your mother stare at your wife like this Literally the way Ray's mom used to look at here . Let me show you how to clean that . I'll show you Now . That's a good way to start . Let me show you how to clean that now . Literally , that's funny .
Speaker 3Yeah yeah , my mother-in-law hates me .
Speaker 2Really .
Speaker 3Oh .
Speaker 1My mother-in-law hates me . That should be your next book .
Speaker 3Of course she does . I stole her baby from her .
Speaker 1You let her visit . You gave her a grandchild .
Speaker 3Yeah , but I took him out of the Holy Land I brought him to this evil country .
Speaker 1Not that I should speak about Leo's family , but the same thing . His mother took his mother's from Ireland , his father's from Ireland , his father's from Spain and the mother . He moved to America and left Spain for her , and I guess that would piss any parent off .
Speaker 3Yeah , I mean , why would anybody want to leave Bat Yam Nice ?
Speaker 1Why would anybody want to leave Bat Yam ? That's amazing .
Speaker 2A memoir Wow A memoir .
Speaker 1Why would anyone want to leave Bat Yam ? I can imagine , can imagine .
Speaker 3We took my mother-in-law to one of my best friend from college's houses and she lives in really like a mansion on a private lake in the most gorgeous . It looks like a villa somewhere in Europe and my mother-in-law walks in and she goes . It's nice . I mean I would never want to live here .
Speaker 2Nobody's inviting you to live here , okay , yes , yeah , that's , that's , that's true .
Speaker 1No my parents also . My mom also says what she's thinking right away Off and ling , off and sing , which teaches you not to do that . It teaches you not to do that . That's it . That's all it does .
Speaker 3Interesting .
Speaker 1That's all . Parents are there to where their midos their best qualities learn . That and you see how it works . And whatever the qualities you don't like , just don't do them , that's it . They show you that . I love that . Yeah , that's what parents are for .
Speaker 3Is that what you're supposed to learn from your ?
Speaker 1parents A hundred percent . What else do you want to learn from your parents ?
Speaker 3No , no no , it's a very interesting perspective , okay .
Speaker 1That's it . Yeah .
Speaker 3What can you offer your children ?
Speaker 1Hopefully more than that . I want you to think about your child . And he sees you and he sees you yapping and your husband walks out of the room in his mind , oh , that's an option . If my wife is ever yapping at me , I'm going to walk out of the room . Period . You're . That's a lesson , your son , that's just no , that's , you're really teaching them well yes I think , I think , yes , yeah yes , no .
Speaker 3the lesson to that is that , like that's actually really rude , you don't walk out mid-sentence .
Speaker 1Rude is telling you shut up . I don't agree with anything you have . Shut is the mid-sentence .
Speaker 3No , that's not rude . That would be rude . You would never walk out , leo mid-sentence . You would never do that .
Speaker 1No , but the sentences are quick and fast and we get to the point . Leo and I , we're soulmates , we're thinking already in the same head . So just two words can be not till later . And then boom , I need to pop , pop , ting , tang , tang , tang , boom , boom . In two words , you understand each other and what needs to be done . And that's because you know we live together , we work together , everything's work together . We're everything's already , we're already in the same head might be a gay thing maybe a gay thing .
Speaker 3I think it might be a gay man thing . I'm telling you , I have a couple of you're not my only gays that have been together for like 20 , I mean long , long . It's different .
Speaker 1I've met your other gays . I've met your other gays . You can always judge the quality of a woman by the gaze she keeps . Oh , that's so awesome .
Speaker 3You haven't met all my other gays .
Speaker 1Yes , but is that not true ? You can judge the quality of a woman by the gaze she keeps .
Speaker 3Yes .
Speaker 1If they're high quality gays , not just needy and taking gays . They're gays that help you move along and they're like almost not just your therapist , they're friends and they give you another perspective of what's happening in your world .
Speaker 3That's right .
Speaker 1That's it . Then there's women who have no gays in their lives .
Speaker 3Big big , you got to have gays yeah .
Speaker 1Yeah , you got to have gays in their lives . Big big you gotta have gays .
Speaker 3Yeah , you gotta have gays in your life , otherwise it's not that pretty that's right yeah you have to have , you have to have like a team really it's a part of the team .
Speaker 1They're part of the teams . These are the gays on the team . These are my gays . This is my accountant . These are this is my accountant . These are the gays . That's the team .
Speaker 3Yeah , the people who are in charge of major things . I've tried to make sure many of them are gays throughout the course of my life . When I was younger , I realized that that was the smart thing , yeah .
Speaker 1Absolutely . What are the gays in your lives ? Me , oh my God , do you have a team .
Speaker 2First of all , I prefer them . I certainly prefer them . I have a whole team .
Speaker 3I have lots of friends , of course , we're going to vet that , vet the list .

Speaker 1That's a very good gay . That's a good gay . A hundred percent , yes .
Generations and Driving Habits
Speaker 1But kids , I think , do what they see their parents do . You know your child's going to realize that you had patience for the mother-in-law .
Speaker 1Yeah , I hope so they see that , so they're going to have . I see that as someone who doesn't have kids . You see things differently . You guys are too immersed in we have kids when someone from outside . I'm at a Pesach program with thousands of children running around , you see , it's so funny to be at these Passover programs it's the entire family . So you have the father who's in the , the father or the grandfather , depending who you are in their 80s . Then you have his sons and they kind of all look the same and they look a little bit like , and then you see their sons and it's so crazy that you see the same face . It's like four of these , three of these , four of these , it's weird that we're still surprised by genetics .
Speaker 1It's genetics . No , I'm just , I'm like , yeah , but to see it like that , and you see the , the generations of it and gregor mendel over here I , I once told leo . I once said , leo , you know , you always see these , these fathers and and sons that look exactly the same and talk the same and they and they act the same and like like I'm not , you'd never know me . And my father , my leo , goes . Are you kidding ?
Speaker 1me nuts when I met your father , I go oh , this is modi . He goes . Oh my god . When I met you , I knew he said this is what leo said . When I met your father , I knew what I was getting into oh my , my God , that's so funny . And chose to stay with it . Yeah , that's how great my father is .
Speaker 3Oh , yeah , yeah yeah .
Speaker 2No , that's like part of our maturation is we like to think that we're different from our parents , but we're probably the same .
Speaker 1We're the same but we try to differ . Yeah , to be in a better way , we're not the same I've met your parents we're not the same .
Speaker 2You're not the same as your parents either we're probably more alike than we like to think sometimes it .
Speaker 1When you say the same , it's , it's I don't mean the same everything it's , it's your own identity . But I was once driving . I was just driving my , I was driving and my niece , liron , was in the car and she's watching me . She goes . Oh my god , you drive like saba oh , that's so cute , she goes you drive like saba .
Speaker 1You do everything like it's like I know I pat the wheel , I do this and that I'm always looking in the mirrors . My father was a driving teacher in israel . He taught me how to drive . I was the only one I drive . He taught me how to drive period and like good you know , look here , look there , I'm always in the mirrors . Leo's in shock at how much I'm in the mirrors . He's in shock . So I am like my father .

Speaker 1God , okay , I got my permit . I got my permit . I love driving . I love driving to today .
Speaker 1I love to drive , I just love it . I don't know why I love to drive . When I was getting , all I wanted to do was drive when I was 16 .

I'm just driving , my first time driving , Do you understand this ? And it was in my uncle's Wagoneer , for some reason . My father had my uncle's wagon here at that time .
Speaker 1And I'm driving , I get to the red light , no , I get to a stop sign and I see the other car coming , the other car and I go to them like this you go and you go . My father starts screaming at me You're not a traffic cop , you don't drive , you let them . If he does this and he hits him , it's your fault . Don't , don't be , don't direct traffic . You know I was like that was my first , that was my first minute of driving period , and then my father just taught me how to drive . So it's yeah , oh . But oh , my God . When I did take driver's ed again now I get to drive this guy's car I was so excited . I'm sitting in the wheel and the driver teacher's here and his window's open , and some other teacher from the school went over to say hi to him . I just pulled out . I'm like I don't know . I pulled out , he made me , he let me , he told me to pull over and to get in the back and I didn't drive that I pull out .
Speaker 1He made me , he let me , he told me to pull over and to get in the back and I didn't drive that .
Speaker 2It was so funny , I pulled out like a maniac .
Speaker 1I'm here , I just said here , and the guy was talking to him . He was so upset , that's so funny . But my permit year I sat and waited for my mother to come home every day and I drove her to the dry cleaners , to the supermarket , to the butcher , to whatever she had to go to . I was always driving , driving , love it , even until today . I just love to drive . Leo doesn't get to drive . Leo hates driving and he used to drive a lot . He lived in Georgia and Miami they drive , he drove , he even had a truck license . But in New York he's like there's no lanes , there's no lanes , there's no lanes . People have to make up their own lanes here . First of all , it's exhilarating . It's exhilarating . Every road in New York is ripped up and there's no lines . He's used to Florida and Georgia where here's the line that's going to turn , here's the line that's not going to turn , and in New York it's like you figure out where you're turning from .
Speaker 2Were you with Leo when you were driving the smart car ? Yeah , the smart car , oh my God he said that that was .
Speaker 3He called that a beige flag .
Speaker 1A red flag First of all , the first time I got in the car with the two of them .
Speaker 3I said who's driving ?
Speaker 1and they just both looked at me and started cracking up leo , I will tell you one thing while while I am driving , he's running the world , I've seen him launch shows like links , going live , and this and that , while like , literally like this , but off of his phone and like the agent , the , the manager , the , this , the that .
Speaker 3Your car . I have been in like borderline , like road trips with them in that car . It's not a car , it's like an office on wheels .
Speaker 1Like you guys are .

Drive , don't text , don't bj . Drive , don't drink and eat . Let's agree to drive , let's agree . Let's disagree to disagree . Um , okay , do you know that , like only recently in europe , they made like cup holders in the european cars ? The european cars didn't have cup holders because when you're driving you shouldn't be drinking the fat americans , but fat americans have the gulp and um and that all right .
