The world of Chabad podcasts has grown rapidly in recent years, with hundreds and thousands of episodes featuring chassidishe stories, personal memories, historical accounts, and fascinating interviews on the history of Chabad and the Rebbeim.

But alongside that wealth, finding a specific story, checking a historical detail, or revisiting a quote meant listening through long recordings without knowing which episode held it. A new project is changing that, turning the audio treasure into a written, accessible, and searchable archive.

The new site, which launched with 2,816 fully transcribed episodes, already holds 3,773 episodes as of this writing from a wide range of Chabad podcasts and series, including Rabbi Shalom Dover Shapira‘s historical series, Rabbi Leibel Shapira‘s “A Gross Fun 770,” Rabbi Michael Aharon Seligson‘s “Zichronos MeHaRebbe,” Rabbi Shalom Dover Levin‘s “Otzaros MiSifriyas HaRebbe,” and R’ Bentzi Avtzon‘s “Gaaguim L’Beis Lubavitch,” alongside more series on chassidishe stories, niggunim, shlichus, and the history of the Chassidus.

The archive allows free text search across all transcripts, in Hebrew and English, locating mentions of people, places, events, and concepts anywhere in the recordings. Episodes recorded in English also carry a Hebrew translation alongside the original transcript.

The entire archive can be downloaded as well, both as a standalone site that can be browsed and searched without an internet connection and as text files for study and research – a significant tool for researchers, authors, educators, shluchim, maggidei shiur, and every chossid looking to discover Chabad treasures.

Organizers note that the transcripts and translations were produced automatically and have not yet been proofread against the original recordings, so errors are possible, especially in names of people, places, and chassidishe terms. Each page links back to the original episode for verification.
