Today’s Daf Yomi page, Sukkah 21, advises us to listen very carefully whenever Torah scholars speak, for they are always dispensing wisdom, even when they don't issue halachic rulings. Today, we have the pleasure of eavesdropping on a conversation between two such scholars, rapper Nissim Black and NBA star Amar'e Stoudemire, who speak about their remarkable life journeys and their friendship on Nissim Black's new podcast, The Deal. How did these two remarkable men go from difficult beginnings to the pinnacle of their profession to studying and spreading the love of Torah? Listen and find out.
