Sheldon now since up the travel ban
doesn't apply to most people listening I
don't think he was coming clean without
and how many listened we have in the
state done get started Aurora and we
have a couple of your questions some of
your questions that we've got through
the email if you have any questions is
that about cashiers in general but
anything really
you can email us at info at star - k dot
o-r-g let me bring up the chat box see
another buyer for us this okay so now
you have it there on the bottom of your
screen
welcome to us and chat with us and we'll
try to get to get to your questions um
bye Kevin what's up that number okay
thanks okay so let's start with which
airplane travel early life okay I was
just in the airport this one do or they
never was okay yes did you have any
kosher issues no not at all okay you
were in on Washington yes okay so let's
say you're a traveling and you want to
get something to eat before your your
your travels in modern with 99 cents to
the airport in America you you bring
your own or you go and buy pretzels and
peanuts in the store but there are a
number of airports are frequented by by
the kosher eating consumers and they do
have a significant amount coach option
on to the starcade at JFK LaGuardia and
Newark in the New York area
they have mmmm right a pretty big
columns they have fresco wheels on red
skull guess like Frank re sko
and those are pre filled meals they have
a green label and start a on them they
look a little bit like the the other
meals they have the Armco shirt but
there's a different color is a green and
a stout of the culture symbol symbol on
it okay
those are available at the Siebel
markets usually in orchid with SIBO
itself see Ivo so if you see this
bill market you go in there and you look
for the city kosher meals they're pretty
good I think I've had them it's not
advertising but they have grilled
chicken salad
they have like real soup that's not so
yeah pretty good get to watch yeah
keep my sandwich as well I'm your blue
paint right okay but they also have
things they also watch that think that
it just I'm not good not necessarily you
have to watch for it and the good thing
about it is like weig expensive that's I
just can say they are they are expensive
but they are the same price and the
other there's a non-kosher food really
so even though it's expensive as an
airport whether you expect for the
kosher food at the price of trace Wow so
this is some concept it's the same price
so at least I didn't see all those over
but that's exact it's not that it's not
really that bad and it's that one you
know when you're hungry and you know it
was a good option any people she keep
that in mind if there's weaving or even
coming into those airports they can
always we'll look at that
let me just do a sound check over here
on my buyers and anybody can hear us
they can chat with us so you can hear
hear us just to make sure it's at least
one person can hear I can only normally
very similarly it's a little early in
the morning yet um so if anybody uh
somebody month yes okay there we go
Jesse invitations up all you muled
available other travelers need for into
chicago chicago point nine o'clock yeah
he's really early bird okay um is a
velvet or tea payoff yes in Chicago I
don't think so no these these kosher
meal was not available in Chicago stars
Idol God exists in all seasons without
it's not available in all peoples of a
chaplain the same and he found see both
see ideal markets in Chicago but they're
not
and although that would be a feat to
have them available to they're fresh
that mail every day and that is sending
them to the ones that have the most
kosher travels travelers it's only as
far as I know in New York New York area
they know how I don't think that in
Chicago I think though if you go if
you're in Toronto if you go to Toronto
yeah certainly they have they have food
under the COR and I realized yes you can
look up on the bakery and sandwiches
under this bill are that's that's good
to know yes I was just going to say if
there are nowadays not to take away from
this fresco thing which is probably fine
but you can't get it's not quality cell
but you can get I've seen them yogurts
and things now available in any airports
even and in you know that border places
like Baltimore kosher Center down
they have kosher you know kosher real
foods instead Scotia rap wasn't before
the show
not the thanks I'm not a jealous its
first but or or I mean this is getting a
little away from airplanes but it's the
same idea when you're traveling on the
highways now at least I'm 95 in our area
a couple the newer rest stops has much
more extensive real food options that
have a Hatcher
what was my carpool days you ever see
that yes I see miles then I'm going to
know you
yes I see it you're using also in
7-eleven and hard-boiled egg right and a
diet coke right I'll keep you going for
a while from semen that's why I found
that to be adjusting good because
there's a pickle also because you pick
you out of a alright as long as we're
getting off topic another way another
way you can get some that people are
doing is having goober delivery to the
airport so you're traveling to wherever
you are and who publicity
oh yes you're having you're going into
the airport you geez off you enjoy
stopping there but you have a stopover
where you're going to get kosher food is
nothing if there's none there but there
is there are restaurants on stage in
town where you are chikage literally
kosher restaurants so but I don't have
time to go out to do it so they're
having over delivered so let me explain
this a little bit I'm a little town gate
I looked into it you want to get into
this good like I smell everyone they
wanted to airplane get out there this is
hilarious is that this is a melody
galore and be sorted okay so so there's
two types of food one is over over the
issues of uber and then there's yeah we
had to send a few only recently the
whole Gemara was that uber uber means a
fetus in Gemara language and up and I
couldn't get out of my head the whole
time I feel like I'm gonna taxi every
time that's what that's what's happened
so this two types one is regular over
and which is just a passenger service
set of attack speeds and the other is
super geeks where they they assault
overheats yes
there's what felt like that we're in
it's an app on your energy ama
smartphone is an app on your mobile
number keys and then Lisa Brooklyn or
Manhattan New York area there are there
are stores culture stores that have
hooked up with overeat so when you order
on your app you're actually only that
ready you have to order you can just
order for me oh that's right no one yet
has to be on this bridge your order down
their list on their list of kosher
restaurants and the restaurant gets an
order from you and you pay through that
and it also deliver to you through
through Ward so I imagine you have to
order it well in advance no oh really no
they make it be you're like 30 minutes
really good Wow right well that's pretty
neat so you put guys at another chat we
put up double briefs for Baltimore
unfortunately Baltimore the Arctic Ocean
stores
don't uh don't try that don't try it at
home okay why am you saying if it means
it has to be sealed right okay that's
the point I wanted to make and actually
I've got a question like this that
somebody had a meal delivered without
seals can someone explain let me comment
but if it's overeats ubereats
means that the restaurants getting a
border directly they should know that it
couldn't be delivered either they
arranging delivery or they're delivering
something like they could even have
Marilyn fish's person delivers or
they're calling ubers to deliver it
however it's working they know it's
going out to somebody and they should be
sealing you know the texture should be
making sure and it is properly sealed so
whether it happens now I don't know but
that would be the responsibility of the
store because they know that they know
it's a delivery so whatever their rules
for delivery that's that's going to be
very frustrating right do you want to
put all that but the ubereats right
present and try the silver prices family
and then it may not be able to even
think about the open right I don't
really think it's that much more
expensive than regular to accessing the
delivery charge which is not much so so
that's the overview now the regular will
work it will say yours again you're into
the airport they'll bring it back to the
airport right then you want to order
from the restaurant in Chicago and to
deliver it to the to the airport so what
you're doing is you're calling the
restaurant directly making an order you
order then you're asked to order an uber
separately they don't they're not
connected you're wondering who per taxi
to go to where the restaurant is and to
bring the food to you to the owner
you've asked and some people do they ask
the deck all the drivers it was not
picking up a person you're picking up a
package and you bring you to me to the
airport okay so in that so you're going
to go into the store you're going to
have
and in that case it's your
responsibility to tell the store I'm
having someone pick it up please seal it
to make sure that it comes with the
right field because then I'll involved
business they don't know when when you
have someone make it make a pickup date
or maybe that's the person eating it
they don't we okay we don't have a
policy if you send somebody to pick up
something in the store to take out they
don't know we see look maybe you're
eating it but nothing that the business
climate efforts and I guess there's a
lot of effort incentives to me seems
like a lot of effort for a meal you know
I'd rather get a bag of chips and oh no
I mean tonight if I come in let's say
from my lower knows we're right I'm
coming into some area which has put your
restaurant and I want to get a meal but
what sample as the security secure area
like the nicer they'll meet the driver
right you know get the meal and as we go
back in and I got and then they're going
to say no no liquid so that's like okay
uh can be with mayonnaise no I'm sorry
you know they get really we just you
don't have to let me go back in to do
that so I also get but there are people
who are doing this for me but not
everybody is a so I'm going to bag of
chips on the three four-hour layover so
in the melt so their pain mush kiss
cuisine you know there's standard is
what yes okay kiss your brats and candy
bar from Brno right now there are people
doing yourself just say if a person
wants to do that they have to be in
touch with the store to make sure that
it's going to be sealed with the proper
seals you know the old food comes in
with the right amount of seals and that
you built it to unseal themselves if it
comes unsealed we're not going to get
into this now it's too long discussion
what do you do then you have to call
star k ik on your row to see what to do
if it comes on
not every single subject is that
requires sale either okay right all I
want to do
Mitch it's being delivered it should be
it should be normally HIV sealed so you
want to arrange that with this door okay
I have other shadows at uber without
that we're not doing now but there are
other interesting times I show you do
come up on on uber like nothing a simple
of us ie isn't it I got these questions
so for real if a person is a front
person is an uber driver and you ask to
deliver from a non-kosher store right or
a McDonald's what did you do okay we're
not going yet let's go back to the
airplane so you order your if you're
going on a run on a international flight
you really probably offers a choice of
meal and you order your kosher meal
right and in from America buying largest
is reliable in the new states not not
any issue when you get and leaving some
foreign countries and there all sorts of
foreign certifications that are not
familiar so if Eddie gets it gets a
little more complicated but when you get
to feel meals from America usually it's
not a problem I did have I was leaving
from Washington wants to to Israel and I
was stopping off and we're beware but
the meal came and it was was the oh you
and was it was not wholly so with dairy
now call yourself and I was at the first
time we came across that it didn't
realize that it usually comes in usually
the meals all the sodas I want to serve
most customers but in Washington I guess
they figured you know that's not family
I don't know they had their Jews a lot
there are nesting problem compared to
New York there aren't that many people
leaving over the kosher meals in
Washington so Elijah that's who I got
and I wasn't getting it let me know
stewardesses fell very bad so uh but but
the stewardess was very
felt very bad she said once it has Lola
it has all of that you know the kosher
signs and all the coaches field and what
what's wrong so I don't even with Emily
but that was the you can you you don't
assume this you keep calling so you're
going to get August row especially if
you add in New York area we do have an
article that delineates the various half
sharing on which airlines you're going
in with a caterer an updated
unfortunately it went from 2007 that's
ten years ago and it has not been
updated because it's so they still have
meals I think this book serving the meal
a 2007 closer like it might be but the
article still just one year we got a
continental air only so that show you
the Continental Airlines Diego which was
taking over buddy
United many years ago so we need to work
on the police about a well one something
to go if you tell me look at and have a
lot of good advice in general but the
specifics of it need to be updated it's
very difficult you got to constantly
have found that if you if you are
traveling you really do want to know you
think you're going to these foreign
countries whatever it is is that if you
if you contact the local throne presence
in that country that city then many
times they could they could give you
some guidance on what you know who's
giving us right now my son was traveling
back from Israel via Portugal this is
one of these deals that you get okay
stopping in Lisbon or whatever what so
it has Melek hoops or those are just a
few short stops right there for short
start exactly so but it was a cheap
ticket so well anyway so what it like
this is giving after Elizabeth great
with the food so it it should we
contacted the local so bad over there
they've happened to know they happen to
know who was because in the South
trouble no ok I'm from there back to the
state so that's one way to figure out
things you know now it's Google in email
and everything else it's the
easier than if I deficit you're out in
the giving of it's not always different
now you're at a class in orbit Royals we
had a Turkish hair we get questions
about a lot of people are going to from
Turkey to get their to sell and we're
not necessarily recommending that but
that's what they do and we checked out
those bills and those those are all fine
they're okay but it was a MYSA
it was a story rabbi Kagan off we used
to live in Baltimore City well Baldwin
that was necessarily wrote up a piece
about how he was on a flight on solenoid
pesos I think another impetus and and a
fruit family was served your signature
from family they were served a meal and
it was irregular regular comments meal
with everything and they had no idea and
he can he realized it but he went over
there and they were shocked Turkish air
would be serving you you know comas and
face us I mean don't they know that's
what I mean he looks like like a like a
bagel their dad yeah if I was in his I'm
big right right right so I was like all
right so they didn't even was for them
for their Facebook symbol um so what did
he do like jump in there so they told me
that it's comics and that the whole
thing was very providential that he was
right there because I wasn't they
wouldn't even allow has a base kosher on
all their foods but we recommend that
you get the SPECIAL kosher in any event
that was where the phase no sure all the
tools from there to shell forever I was
in New York is different standard
Assyrian wide it's different standards
depends
and where they're leaving from but they
do have kosher kosher standard no matter
where you can get more dirt rates you
can tell it is not kosher on a lot but
for most people that normally eat this
our K value over the sub K they wanted
to have that level they want to be
especially literature especially kosher
meal so from there's a way of doing it
from America you order the Regal meals
right analyst royal regal material and
from television is a clot meals that's
the way I think I well has it in this
system otherwise because whatever what
I've done is I want to just I'm flowing
all that much by order you know special
kosher and they just get any regular
because I don't think the guy who I was
talking to on the phone know what I had
to put it this is the key so they drive
it over include that you were coming
over spin there's a long Israel together
I get your the Hank today different
airline there was United be alone so so
that you're the Regal from from from
America and the gloss from Trent elegy
and we get this question I'd say from a
dozen times a week coffee on an airplane
I'll let you deal with that I'll be by
can I drink the coffee on the airplane
and don't know on any airplane right so
these we've got some hot water here we
have some we bachelor behind them in
this question many times visa be are our
investigations of the coffee drinking
coffee on the road is all this kind of
stuff with coffee and and rebel Hyneman
is always felt that it's not an issue
and he says that you could do it and the
truth is it kind of follows along with
with our she thought that when you're
traveling and you know you're traveling
you for flying that you can you can go
ahead and
rely on the fact that there are various
coulis and so never warrant it won't be
the problem is they washed right they
would wash it with with we actually did
look into a little bit the problem is
not the cost yourself to playing slavery
coffee that you talk about playing on
flavor is it that would be the day when
they serve you coffee well different
used to be and I want to make it a long
the long long longer flight they still
do it that way but they used to go
around with these little like coffee
pots Riveter yes you know coffee you
want to eat don't do this I'm not sure
if they'll do that doesn't mean now well
I don't know if they come out sorry
it's always very favorites up for you
what was that show pre poured now maybe
they might have a coffee maker in the
back and they're only Galindez for
they're not really using other other
caleb's I don't know but but again we
have that hetero thumb of traveling so
because they're linking to you and
anyway it moment really it's okay
director we have some strictness right
what a minor traveling and so I've heard
that does there some I've ever heard
about certain the culture the people who
cool arm acid and we're map is not to
drink the coffee offered on the
airline's day when I should bring their
own incident coffee and get and get hot
water which I was that's certainly and
I'm not an issue there whereas the
stewardesses sorry it would s be when
they fall not not scores is why depends
why dependence I'm sorry since the rice
divorce they would have to flight
attendant for how order that's no
problem just add them on your coffee my
treat okay that's the most people is
difficult to do that so we go in when I
say too late today right yes okay I are
I think I've told the story before I
once had I wanted to a soda and they
broke me so they brought to me and then
I'm waiting what I'm waiting
Whitney have a horrible decision came
again and then stewardess King Supply
Center came back a few minutes later I
hadn't yet started to drink and she said
sir I don't think you want to drink that
so why not she said I made a mistake
that champagne anyone know it that's
where that's enough so the champagne
would cease
would betrayed everybody son was
wantonness watching hockey that's
amazing it's amazing because we learned
unknown in this what the you are works I
wouldn't change me I will just name is
ginger it feels right that's why I
couldn't tell
Wow someone told me you could tell
because of the ice is the weather in the
ice and they'd open I don't believe
in champagne right I would've known that
right now well you have long enough that
I can think so
even if you don't get a meal orders on
the play of course you want to bring
your own food right because you can't
rely on the fact that there are often
times when they make mistakes and
they'll give your meal is whatever as
extras or whatever it's all they opened
it already and such things like that so
you want to bring your gear your own
food just it's just to be sure that's
just a practical side life is my big
story I think I told this before a
little bit kind again other they used to
they make these mules where they think
it believed them where you can have the
technology where you can you it
basically keeps itself up oh yeah there
there yes so there's this self using new
healthy you can open up some there's
some inaudible private colleges water to
us and we'd start ready
yes I've used as I got this isn't this
is when I first came out strangers among
the airports also substrate so I was on
the airplane that I was in the I was in
the area I was in the airport airport in
the indicate area and it had some time
to upgrade I'm gonna have this meal and
I don't think it had any real food the
whole day or once I know it was happy
has brought it along and I never useful
before so I start the process going and
I didn't realize that obscene so much
it's a speeding and smoking this was
like soon after 9/11 and I'll take it oh
my gosh can I live it
piece of transit he'll dress me so the
Belvoir center here okay no all right um
Ron is saying that that hot water source
can be clean and free going to be a
health challenges okay that I've heard
that as well that the lab values were
the coffee and in
roll it up there could be some health
issue but that's not the little taste
good then you have to do your research
on okay let's move to hotel don't lie we
did we do have this question and we got
it for this for this webinar as well
about the sensors in in a hotel and this
is serious question that there is
question yeah a serious question for
shout this observer in a hotel
everything is now becoming more energy
efficient and so one of the things
they're doing is trying to not let you
leave the air conditioning or heat and
light on 24 hours a day when you're
there so what they're doing is having
some sort of sensors in the room it
could be anything from from when you
open the door I was in the place when
you open the door here when you leave
everything goes off when you open the
door you turn everything on okay is
there the lights on you're done the heat
on and and obviously the shopping sense
that you can't do that so you have you
have you have a problem that sometimes
move this the movement in the room will
right will cause the the heat to go on
okay nobody in the toilet said this like
actually on nothing is automatic so some
of these things can be overridden let's
say the air conditioning heating problem
can be open reason but you want to check
that out before you go so I can't see
going to hotel for Shabbos without first
going ahead to make sure that these are
this isn't a problem what imagine the
work sent to the hotel's more Leslie
business and more likely this happier
yes corrective little Mallik stay in the
motel sisters then you're not a safe
probably they're not going to so
sophisticated right that's true because
I don't have one
upgrade but it's definitely something
they want you want to check out even
with the with the bathroom facilities we
had a issue we had an event in
Washington big event that was over
Shabbos and they found that all of this
the bathrooms in the public areas were
electronic so we had said we had to
scramble to make arrangements so we want
one this is a foreshadow started
dedicated for Chavez we started we made
a vengeance right it's one of the things
actually the cycad does check is that
when we give we don't feel that it just
the food we're giving extra to but you
have to be able to the dancer yeah we
give actually the best arcade you have
to be able to some people have to be
able to be there if they're going to eat
their culture that they have to be
comfortable that the area of this
culture that is a pool that it's a great
range in a culture where this is a
density right everything so they asked
at least one available for the for the
guests who would totally love them had
they blocked the sensor whatever landed
they are they on yeah they thought the
sensitivity there must've been some way
of doing it um and if that's going to be
a problem in your room and hotel then
you relate one know that you want to
know that in advance right now that's
one issue well other things sometimes
when you open your your patio door
opening the patio door sometimes the
activates air-conditioned because they
don't want to have the hot air coming in
from outside and you're running your air
conditioning the same time it's just a
waste of resources
so you want to somebody really go at
relaxed indication pettalia really right
we do you do have the key locks that are
electronic with a with a card or a
Hyneman s Baskin
that for that you can handle the you can
range in advance tell me to keep at a
desk and have the non-jews come up and
openers for you didn't we also mention
that it is
balloons in your in your eternal right
that's not a balloon I've read that you
can have a helium balloon in your room
and if the movement is the thing that
causes the animals or animals once
around so that's enough it to keep it so
you have to find some way but you want
to know in advance planet events don't
get there and then realize oh no what am
I going to do okay now as a kosher from
Coach perspective to breakfast the
continental breakfast the hotel's always
we get a lot of questions about that
what can I get it the continental
breakfast well we can say definitively
that the cooked items are not right or
not cultured from for kosher eaters
because they let's say the utensils may
not be kosher and even if the attempt of
the culture but even the hard-boiled
eggs let's say they meant to be desired
with but by you know need you can you
know initially throw all the things so
they're in the United States in the
contents and mills usually will be crest
house servings which you'll recognize
this kosher
ready cooking package if they're
packaged does provide some dairy and
sometimes you can ask to see the
packaging right maybe traveling out of
the United States one time I was
traveling in Europe and they have this
fancy schmancy breakfast it looks really
great but there was like not a kosher
thing in sight besides the war babies
you know it was all sorts of meats and
fishes and Runa book right I I have
heard that sometimes they had you under
Elissa orange juice that they do it
flavor
sometimes it actually hands me that
yesterday they could happily orange
juice in a summer sound they were a
schematic when I was talking about the
juices in the seminar that we working
against today whether or not our policy
of pure juices applies everything of the
Sarah news right applied to that I think
that they could add things and I think
that the person going has to be as long
unless you his or her own much gear you
have to find a way to figure out whether
is anything added maybe they should can
show you the concentrate
we can't sit here telling you that
they're all okay we're all not okay I
think you have to do your own
investigation and that's that's what I
would say just be aware that it's
possible need to add some something to
make it taste a little better which may
be a culture issue that's coffee at the
hotel plain coffee again be the same I
think he's ready to travelin okay let's
see Ron at Ron says AC and he's in hotel
room in the hotel Tokyo the room key has
a plastic tab I mean they want coming to
a switch and turn on AC heat okay so you
have to take your room key and every
time you come in you have to put it in
to turn it on he told him and they gave
him an additional tab so it would stay
on all Chavez additional Tami's it just
was our initial additional tab on
TeenNick so mad yeah no they didn't
addition so that is also promising is
very important that some of them the way
they work is when you come in you put
your key into a slot basically so you
need to get one to leave in the slatina
and want to come in a little top one now
if you be able to use to come in our
soul is it such rule as it is possible
to cache your kitchen countertop I guess
they mean in a in a Cell
that's a good question if you're in like
an efficiency hotel and they have they
have a kitchen you would you it wouldn't
really be necessary to capture the
countertop as long as anything you keep
down if they have nothing
you know something police not
necessarily even if you clean and dry
between the pot and tabletop that would
be acceptable as long as it's over yes
you probably will not be able to contra
because the material is made up it's
probably not contrib we problem about
the old-fashioned things your mojo
really offensive fancy you're in the
hotel where an account
if they have is an average M Debray I
don't think that the hotel will be
pleased that you pour hot water below
your counter does Tom you're very clean
hygienic III don't think you should do
something that you know the hotel is
definitely not going to be very happy
with and you know if they have a rule no
no candles in the room there's a reason
for that rule that afraid of a fire and
it could be dangerous and please elected
insurance bishop can have to respect
that bet
I was in a hotel and I asked him if I
could light candles they said there will
be no problem they don't have any
problem is one or two candles will be
fine so yeah the Delta Phi Delta Delta
you so frightened that you don't have to
light a candle you can use an
incandescent of light like a plug-in
like a little nightlight would work or
even a flashlight if it had a
incandescent bulb which are going out of
style but very good old one with the
filaments and how about all the days
they offer to have that hassle run so
but a lot of candle in the hotel or to
the cashier count it out when you know
they're not going to be fast
I'm not going to want on a mission over
um there are there are times when have
been fired some people with Kindle
nemesis or in Chaves but people have
called cell fires right so that's why
they they're scared going back to the
hotel you haven't you have a for each in
the room you don't have to cash everyone
was cool which usually in a decent place
should be clean and then you have if you
have a stove so that you can't catch it
like you would do it anywhere else you
turn on the burners dude itself clean
Dubuque and up it would I never thought
I was traveling and
there was no fridge in the and I had
brought my food along with me there's a
compact um which some people get into
later the exact impact meat and in the
interview frigerators so I kind of like
you know from place to place where I was
going
usually there was a Christmas I've had
no fridge in the room but they didn't
have a fridge in the you know that they
offered me to use the restaurant fridge
okay oh so you were able to would you
come over here and put your food here I
begin again you
you know make sure that it feels auditor
okay that that's something you can do if
you're going on a trip and you have
meals that are prepared already and they
feel them you can ask them in advance if
they'll be willing to put it in their
fridge on a really pretty comment what
accommodate you they don't get that many
requests for that amount not such a big
deal so they should be willing to do
that I want to mention you're you you
you brought up some gadgets that are
good yeah for traveling travelers
rabbits folding your metallics all this
any reasons Thomas recently there is
some some liquids you know travel gadget
articles there a couple of things that
look like we useful for for the from
kosher traveler one of them was it just
fold up it's a fold up hot plate
basically so a hot plate is that you
know is there's no real vulnerable at
one temperature I guess and that is no
hassle generally is in this mobile dials
whatever this one actually had four
different zone so there was like a
couple I think tool that works more
where hotter I wanted open two of them
were cooler and when you're not using it
can actually fold it up real small you
can carry with you and you guys here
hotel room or whatever you can unfold
they just plug it in right comes your
heads together
so if you're traveling goes great right
for the other one and the other one was
a was a car refrigerator heater so it
has the twelve
you know it's plugged into your into
your car into your around with a
cigarette lighter which is whatever they
call nowadays are plug and because it's
made up a whole having 12 cans of
standard size soda or whatever and it
can it can be dual cooling and if it
also be warming so you can actually warm
meals or as we know it all are mature
they're going to dressings that's the
there are two more gadgets on what
dimension yeah one was the kosher lamp
has a small kosher traveling that you
can use you bring it along and that's
the land that you could beat with him so
I put it down without the right I have a
smaller one compact one in for free so
you can take with you and and as far as
going back to airplanes there all sorts
of cool gadgets I thought that that you
know the hard to sweep the Harris
typical many up so I saw one that that
basically it attaches to the arm and it
brings up the pillow up to here so you
can sort of lean your face like that
it's supposed to be able to maybe a
little more comfortable okay here here
is some more of our comments why a Mises
I heard for a revolution if the hotel
doesn't allow candles in the room it's
breaking hotel policy on your agreement
with them and the brothel would be
considerable at all in other words an if
you do it like them if you would light
the candles against the will of the
hotel which I have a right to make that
policy then you're you're not going to
be fulfilling mitzvot and your Brussels
will be for not that I can I can
definitely hear that it makes you know
like right here that okay Ron says that
don't tell fridge of course with a shop
is you want to disconnect the bulb or
bring some tapes to take down so that
when you open your fridge on job as they
won't go on um some hotels now actually
have escalators let's say on the load on
the lower levels up not between the
guest room floors but you know your
regulars and Lobby on down to the
mezzanine yes right so there have an
escalator those W segment so so they
have they have escalators and remaining
hold that using an escalator on Chavez
is now the problem doesn't get involved
with the question of the elevators which
is another issue but escalators are just
basically one speed only and those that
those are not an issue to use but what
we have found more and more is that
that some of the escalators against it
be efficient are are either slowing when
no one is going on them or they're
stopping completely I see this in the
airport's now that they completely
stopped and when someone comes they
sense that you're coming and then they
start those on lar an issue and then
there are some that have counters they
want to count the amount of people that
are walking on is highly have something
right I have not well then most of the
others something that like so that you
won't you know you'll see where you're
going
no I'm saying it's a light that you walk
you're working you're bridging radios
you've read the mr. beam right right so
you have not seen those and I'm not sure
exactly what they look like that I've
heard that they are they exist and those
would be a problem if you're so that
Apple it actually shuts down he was with
the way for someone else to take it on
the escalator English that was sure if
that would be enough but if there's ever
hotels where you where they have an
Augmented fourth right also right so
what I mean right as long as you're not
keeping that player from continuing to
go there would be okay right right so
let's continue the you wanna elevator ah
we haven't in there might have an
article we talked about if people can
take a look at so try and get up get a
room that's on a lower level I see a
child definitely try to go as you only
could they live it right we do have
another article about traveling on on
air of Shabbos on Friday rather never
have an article about that and the basic
rule is to try to avoid traveling far on
Eric Chavez
if you're going far I tried to have
welfare and they say yes you sure if you
need to travel on Friday the rule is
always leave double time double the
amount of time you never know will be
traffic to do this leave double the
amount of time case there's some right
so it sounded Izzy right
this weekend is July fourth weekend will
be a busy is at this video well select
words yeah Tuesday yes so I exactly so
this we can select what we know very
busy
Freddie should be probably probably busy
so you want to leave as early as
possible and remember recommend not
booking the last flight out - okay
you're coming you're coming home
traveling by plane don't poke me laughs
riding on a Friday
right now hook the last slide out or
even on a Thursday don't put the last
slide out the west like that let's say
20 points out from the West Coast right
that you could take on Southwest let's
say it's very early it's like it's
because they don't do red-eye Southwest
they won't book you on another airline
and Friday the next flight will get you
in on jobs so the earliest the last
slide out from you know the west coast
to the east coast maybe at 10 o'clock in
the morning we were 11 you know on that
you are on ready to last slide and then
there is it and there isn't any other
option if your flight is canceled so you
want to realize that in advance and make
Adam you know may be aware of them I had
I mean the question when you let a
traveling to scroll what is the latest
you would want to get in there or else
you have to get there on Friday really
you should try to get there on Thursday
right says not only when I'm surviving
like necessarily taking and I was taking
know brought you have to get from the
airport so so yellow because you could
take a certain thing slide from the
United States Israel getting is getting
that relief anymore
right let's say you take a four o'clock
or five bucks diuretic slide that will
get you in about nine to ten o'clock in
the morning I think that's okay
because there is a lot of leeway is not
the best bit leaving them Lisbon gets a
Thursday but if you sometimes you need
to be Kevin so you leave Thursday four
or five you get there in the morning it
wouldn't give it it's okay you can't at
that on Thursday afternoon you can take
a stopover here
three o'clock four o'clock adjusted very
late there is a point that we've had
seven from JFK that is in about 7 or 7
p.m. and gets in about noon today just
reloading time shop is initiating its
identity one time of the year right
depending what time of the year for sure
right and shout into the 4:30 right
that's that's a problem but the Emir
Chavez's later it's still cutting it
close because it could it could be
delighted as it happens the flights have
been delayed and they've stuck in the
airport or worse so with everybody but I
think it to me it I'm in my I don't know
if the star can resist it but I would
say that is the latest even pushing it
after that it's and that's not even
reasonable anymore any night that is
even on there in dire circumstances you
know you gotta get back to Charlotte
that's the last slide out
take that you think that selective after
that is really not not not acceptable
okay let's see we only kind of rehab
Joel wants us to talk about kind of
coca-cola on the road with Peppa I just
both of the ethic coach go on the road I
just talked about that if they if
they're in the seminar if that's Joel
Weinberger works of star K we are
curious where you are right now
[Music]
Joel travels the world floor for Astarte
all over Philippines Indonesia of all
over India right sometimes they joke
they live on the plane but so what is
this car is coca-cola on the road so we
so the most recent information we have
from the oh you you only want to
coca-cola is that you can you can drink
coke when we take off you drink the coke
products as many of them you can drink
them in North America and Canada in
Europe and even in the in Russia and the
European parts of Russia and I believe
in Israel and then it Israel actually
it's a little bit of a strange situation
because the the concentrates that are
made for ancestral proper are fine and
they're they're certified
but the concentrates that are made for
the coca-cola that's sold in the English
team in other words of me alchemy was
our beginning it's already area are
actually made in Egypt and it might be
even a little questionable Leo you said
so how would how would you know you
would see that I belong here looking
like where they get a special on the
right hand right well right and then
testicles itself and every that pretty
much test you can get anywhere it seems
like will take most of its coming from
reliable sources except I think they
said for Venezuela except sometimes
really looking like that yet South
America was good except Venezuela I
guess because it's like communist stick
so there's something another like let's
go for the closure but other than that
it was it was fine hiya

to wrap up this so I this to this
