In other news, I am considering relaunching my Rambam Bekius podcast. My goal is to cover the entirety of the Rambam’s Hilchos Tefilah, halacha by halacha, in short (5-10 minute) daily episodes. If you are interested in sponsoring my Rambam content specifically, please let me know! I’m eager to make this project a reality, and I’m ready when you are!
