Kerler opens with the date and thanks the people who helped the expedition, then asks Rezmovits to sing. Rezmovits, with another person joining in, sings a humorous song about a rebbe, the rebbetsin and the hasidim. Asked when the song was sung, he says he heard it in Israel and brought it back to Hungary, and tells how Polish friends there found he knew Yiddish.
Also includes Kerler's opening announcement and thanks, and an anecdote about Polish friends in Israel.
Kerler asks about a local Yiddish word for 'together' and about a term connected with bundles of beans (?). Rezmovits confirms the first as used in Debrecen and discusses the second; he then says he has songs he heard from his mother.
Rezmovits recalls sayings and songs from his Carpathian family tradition, such as not boasting about money. His parents came from Sighet and his grandfather was a melamed. He tells how his father, angered by a Romanian tax collector who seized his grandfather's tefillin bag, threw the man to the ground and his grandmother calmed the man with brandy. Kerler asks about songs of the grandfather and father, about love, and about a comic song about paper children; Rezmovits cannot place the last.
