It's very nice that Robin Diamond summarized Rabbi Kessin's shiur but honestly, the rabbi needs to keep his shiur to a half-hour. Rabbi Kessin has very deep knowledge in Kabbalah - most people don’t - and therefore, he should be making a series of videos that are a half-hour instead.

To connect the dots, you have to have the relevant dots before you. Fragmenting it, imo, would disrupt the cohesion of the big picture. People will watch a movie but not this? Sad.

Rachel, I agree. I do understand that people find it difficult to listen for some time, yet breaking it into segments for yourself and picking up where you left off helps.
I love long lectures and plug in and do my housework....

The rabbi's shiurim are rarely longer than an hour and a half and usually ten or fifteen minutes less, less than the average feature film. And, as you say, Leah, it can be paused and returned to. There are some fans of the rabbi who have made "snippets" and added visuals, which is fine. But, generally, it is best left as an epic whole.
