Thanks so much for continuing the chat about the Bund - it's absolutely fascinating. She is brilliant in every sense.

Fun fact: that Jewish joke Matt alluded to is alive and well in Harbin, China. The town only has one Jew living in it, an Israeli born Professor, Ben Canaan, who is a Chinese citizen, there are two preserved synagogues in town, and he loves one and hates the other.

Need to transcribe that quote from about 38 minutes about Zionism

Pleeeease go listen to the episode of the Dollop about Johnny Appleseed! Not only was he real, he’s less problematic than you’d expect from the time. (Also any episode of the dollop, esp 20th century politicians and any union-centric topics)

also, the passage Daniel read around 1:07:20 is a hell of a piece of prose and gave me eidetic flashbacks. Ouch indeed!

Daniel's missed opportunity to talk about the surprisingly good Israeli funk band The Apples
