The Story of R' Noiky Roberts - The Rock of Gibraltar | Meaningful People #60

"What's Gibraltar?" you may be wondering.
Originally from Gateshead, England, Noiky (Chanoch) married his wife Ahuva in Atlanta, Georgia and moved shortly thereafter to the UK.
After less than a year they were offered a teaching and kiruv role in the wonderful Jewish Community of Gibraltar. They were offered a 2 year contract..... and now nearly 25 years later, the Roberts family has been a staple in one of the most fascinating Jewish communities.
Noiky is a Rabbi, motivational speaker, singer, tour guide and more.

The classes that Rabbi Roberts would give were the ones you didn’t want to end, it was always the highlight of my day, best rebbi!

[@NoikyR]

So humbled... Thanks so much dearest Yosseleh...

[@markmiller8767]

I was lucky to learn in the same yeshiva as Noiky for a short time. He'd occasionally come back to visit after he moved onto another yeshiva. BH, he hasn't changed at all! Kind, effervescent, articulate, down to earth, engaging, real... Thank you for having him!!!

[@NoikyR]

What a wonderful comment. I deeply apprecaite that... (no idea who you are tho!) Perhaps you'd be kind enough to share????? Regardless, I wish you well be'H always...

[@dustin9737]

Which Yeshiva was that?

[@Judys_Jewish_Music]

As Jack/ Yaakov said- Everyone can be a Meaningful People Podcast Guest- because everyone can have a meaningful impact on someone. This kind guest chose a career where he could make the Most Meaningful Impact. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@NoikyR]

Thank you for your kind words. You said it so well. EVERYONE has the capacity to change lives.....

[@Judys_Jewish_Music]

@@NoikyR WOW‼️ I am honored by your kind reply. I don’t often get a reply from a MPP guest. Much Appreciated 🙏🙏 All The Best & have a Good Safe Shabbos. (I did not finish the episode; but, I will share at least one important quote.)

[@eli2443]

[@NoikyR]

Dearest Levi... There aren't enough words to tell the world how great I think my boys are.... Go make em all proud...

[@davidbentata8818]

If there is a down side to my dear friend Rav Noiky ..... that is .. that there are not more Noikys around. I know him personally and his neshama glows!

[@NoikyR]

These words truly touch my heart.... thank you dear David.... the feeling of love is truly mutual...

[@dassyobermeister2274]

[@eliezersuissa4430]

Truly inspiring

[@Life_42]

1:07:45 Strongly agree; how dare we get up and complain.

[@meaningfulminute]

Kavoded him up big time!

[@NoikyR]

I do love that line :-)

[@DavidKorezky]

One word to describe the interview: WoW So inspiring, thank you

[@NoikyR]

Wow, Dave... thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it and found it inspiring. That means so much to me ;-)

[@ShloimyZaltzman]

Love it!

[@josephfletcher8791]

Hi Noiky. Heard you were in gateshead for pessach. This just came up on my feed …. Would have loved to catch up. Thank you for your inspiration. Be well. Yosef chaim.

[@Life_42]

Wow this man has stories! Great inspiration!

[@saml9968]

Beautiful and inspiring podcast. Thanks Noiky

[@NoikyR]

Thanks Sam! Be well....

[@denizalgazi]

Wonderful interview!

[@NoikyR]

Thanks Deniz!

[@michalmehler7887]

What an amazing interview so inspiring!!

[@NoikyR]

Thank you so much....

[@Judys_Jewish_Music]

Who do I hold responsible for Not discussing R’ Noiky’s Singing Career????‼️‼️‼️ Good Reason for a 2nd Follow Up Interview.

[@NoikyR]

Thank you Judy... but this interview was about Gibraltar, not about me ;-)

[@Judys_Jewish_Music]

@@NoikyR - That is a funny & unexpected answer. I thought you would have said that the interview was ‘only’ to focus on your Rabbinic career. Of course, you are the inspirational guest; just happened that Yaakov found you in Gibraltar, B”H. 😊🙏

[@Judys_Jewish_Music]

“Kovod You Up”- Nachi Gordon

[@eliezersuissa4430]

That’s my rabbi ❤️

[@NoikyR]

That's my talmid.... the next gadol

[@buckinghamandchester]

Nice chap indeed. He makes an ok homemade herring too...

[@NoikyR]

Shhhh.... don't let everyone know... there's not enough of the contraband Ashekanzi staple to feed them all 😀

[@tzviw7257]

Wish you would’ve let him tell the story at 1:15.53

[@TwoChassidsInaPod]

Interesting yid!
