The following shiur was delivered by Rabbi Shloime Pollak, Daf Yomi maggid shiur at the Sterling Forest Beis Medrash inLakewood.
Most have the Minhag to say “לדוד ה אורי”; many don’t.
What is the reason for this minhag and when did it start?
Why does Nusach Ashkenaz say it after Shachris & Maariv, and Nusach Sfard say it after Shachris & Minchah?
Should it be said until after Yom Kipor, Shmeni Atzeres, or Simchas Torah??

For all the sources brought, and all the examples of whom do not say it, this lecturer neglected to mention that Minhag Ashkenaz and Minhag Polin do not contain this custom in their repertoire. And those who still adhere to the customs of their ancestors and don’t run after every exciting custom, kabbalistic or otherwise, are careful not to add this custom too. Therefore, the Yekkes don’t say it either.
