In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Rabbi Pini Dunner and Rav Moshe Weinberger about the Yabloner Rebbe and his astounding story of teshuva.

The Yabloner Rebbe was a chassidishe rebbe who helped found Kfar Chassidim. He disappeared and went to Los Angeles, where he went off the derech, but he later returned to Judaism and Kfar Chassidim in a remarkable example of teshuva.

- Who was the Yabloner Rebbe?
- Why did he leave his faith?
- What inspired him to return?

Tune in to hear a conversation about the astounding story of the Yabloner Rebbe.
