מינע־ליפֿשע רעדט װעגן אַ פּאָר פֿאַרװײַלערישע ביכער און איך רעד װעגן אַ װיכטיקן פֿיגור פֿון געשיכטע - אַ מענטש װאָס איז געװען אַ גרױסער מאַכער אין די אוניאָנס.

This episode our guest is Meena-Lifshe Viswanath who tells us about a few Yiddish page-turners - fiction in some surprising genres. And in our Mysterious Person I describe someone an important figure from American labour history, a big player in the unions. Can you guess who it is?
