In this week’s Reporters Roundtable podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward contributor Jay Michaelson to talk about his recent, controversial piece on Jewish fundamentalism and the ultra-Orthodox. Then, Nate Lavey drops by to discuss his video on a classic Brooklyn hat store and their century-old equipment. Finally, Susan Armitage gives a brief history lesson on Katz’s Deli, which is turning 125 years old.
