I want to share something very personal about today

Today is the Yahrzeit of my grandfather, R' Nison Gordon, and I'd like to share with you a conversation I had my father, R' Larry Gordon, about R' Nisson.

R' Nison traveled from Poland when he was 18-years-old to report on life in New York City as the American correspondent for a Polish newspaper.

Later he would became a well know Yiddish writer, writing for "The Day," "The Day Morning Journal," and "The Algemeiner Journal," during a career that spanned over 45 years.


Every week, Nachi and Momo sit down for a conversation that feels more like a discovery than an interview. Their Meaningful People podcast explores the journeys of fascinating individuals from across the Jewish world, though you don't need to be Jewish to find their stories compelling. These are artists, educators, thinkers, and community builders-people whose lives are driven by purpose. Each episode delves into the personal turning points, challenges, and inspirations that shaped them, moving beyond public personas to reveal the real human experience behind them. You’ll hear conversations that are as likely to be funny and lighthearted as they are profound and reflective, offering a genuine sense of connection. This isn't about abstract ideas, but about the lived wisdom that comes from a life examined. Tune in for a weekly dose of perspective that feels both uplifting and grounding, a reminder of the diverse paths that lead to a meaningful life. From Meaningful Minute, this podcast sits at the unique intersection of spirituality, self-improvement, and education, all through the power of personal narrative.
