Episode notes
Simon Banderob is back – or, perhaps, he never left – and ready to dive into the second half of his multi-hour yap session. Now that the groundwork of What Is Yiddish? has been laid, Simon and Lela talk theatre, specifically, Fiddler on the Roof, and how it and Yiddish are so irreversibly intertwined. Pulling information and experiences from their own production, Broadway casts, movie adaptations, and global interpretations, this episode brings moving and awe-inspiring context to an already moving and awe-inspiring story.
