The Borscht Belt Part 1

We're going to the Catskills! It's summer vacation, and for thousands of 20th century families, that meant a trip out of the sweltering heat of New York City into the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, where they patronized thousand-acre resorts, bungalow colonies, and B&B's. We welcome special guest Jen Stewart, host of the Borscht Belt Tattler Podcast, as she takes us through the rise and fall of the Borscht Belt.🎧 Listen and subscribe to Jen's podcast and follow her on Instagram.☕️ You can support Hotel History (and our caffeine addiction) here or on Patreon.📰 Sign up for our free newsletter, The CHECK-IN.📖 Join our book club here.📚 Shop our bookshelves here.🤳 Follow us: TikTok | Instagram | X🎶 Music:I Like Peanuts by Jason Shaw licensed under Creative Commons License.
