Rabbi Tuchman was honored to give a talk on Shemini Atzeret, the 8th day of Assembly, which is the 8th day following the seven-day harvest festival of Sukkot and is a holiday in its own right. It also happens to be Rabbi Tuchman’s favorite fall holiday. Come and hear why! The talk was given on October 9, 2025, during chol hamoed Sukkot—the intermediate days of Sukkot. The recording is here.
