Plus there’s a little message from David, another listener, about his new Youtube channel, Polyglot Reading. This is the last episode of Season 3 so there will be a little break and we’ll be back in a few weeks with Season 4.

In this episode I talk a little about what kind of materials are most useful for language learners and a great resource for Yiddish learners - Der Yiddisher Tam-Tam. It’s a little magazine that was published for many years and is full of articles written just for Yiddish learners. I read an excerpt from an article published in the 100th issue of Der Yiddisher Tam-tam. There’s a little bit of tricky vocab, and unlike Tam-Tam we don’t have footnotes, so be sure to check the transcript for vocab notes.

In this episode I play a few excerpts from an interview I conducted with Chana Pollack, archivist at The Forward newspaper (established as a Yiddish daily in 1897!). I’ll release the full interview soon as a bonus episode for those who want to try listening to something a bit more advanced. I asked Chana about her work and her article about LGBTQ stories and silences in the archive.. Would you like to be a guest on the show? Please get in touch!
