Rabbi Moshe Barrocas

I really enjoyed R. Bassman’s Semichas Chaver classes on muktze. The nice thing about it is, there’s lots of modern muktze examples that we may experience on shabbos and we learn where it’s source is in Shulchan Aruch. I feel like I have a better knowledge of the laws of muktze. 

R. Bassman is really knowledgeable and well prepared. Yashar koach.
