Join me and my guest Micaela Tepler as we follow her Bubbe Faye on an epic journey that includes fleeing Nazis, traveling through Europe and Russia, surviving Kazakh floods, refugee camp romance, a transatlantic crossing, a bathtub full of pike, two immigrations, a mafioso boyfriend, Micaela's bat mitzvah, indigestion, and a battle with dementia that she never really lost. This episode's music is a song called Tumbalalaika. A Jewish folk love song that was one of the last things Faye Tepler remembered.
