    Our guest today is Joel Blecher who has a beautiful story about learning Yiddish in Berlin and the historical resonances. Joel also had a few questions for me, so I speak a little about Yiddish in my family and starting to study Yiddish.

    We’re back with a fourth season of Yiddish listening practice on Proste Yiddish.

If you find it a bit challenging remember you can adjust the playback speed in your player and follow the transcript to help with your comprehension.

    In this episode we hear from a listener, Elisheva, about her interest in sewing and learning about Jewish clothing. And I share a bit about one of my interests: Yiddish on Youtube. All the links are in the transcripts but you can also find most of the videos via the playlists on our Youtube channel.

    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.

    Another interview! I spoke with Jake Schneider about a shmues krayz that he organises in Berlin called “Shmues un Vayn”. This was recorded over zoom so apologies for the audio quality.

    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.

    This is a special episode - I had some requests for longer episodes for advanced students so this episode is the full interview that I conducted with Chana Pollack, archivist at The Forward (דער פֿאָרװערץ).

    The language in this episode is a lot more complicated than our usual format, and of course it’s a lot longer. So if you’re not ready for this much Yiddish don’t worry, we’ll be back next week with a regular episode.

    The article Chana wrote about LGBTQ stories in the Forward archive is here.

    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..
