From the machine transcript

The team arrives at the Balta community center and the museum there. Tanya and a colleague discuss, mostly in Russian, which elderly Yiddish speakers might be interviewed in Balta and nearby towns such as Kotovsk. They mention an earlier visit by a group from Petersburg, Yiddish books, the Hesed, and plans to visit two women in their eighties.

The catalogue entry names Tanya as speaker; the transcript also shows the Petersburg visit, the Hesed branch and Kerler and Lemster's replies.
