In Episode 102 of The Fog of War and Humanity, host Rich Acritelli sits down with Holocaust educator and survivor-descendant Renee Pardo to trace the extraordinary journey of her father, Victor Partardo. From hiding in the mountains of Salonica and surviving brutal labor camps, to daring escapes, clandestine arms-smuggling missions for the nascent state of Israel, and a new life built in America’s garment district and butcher shops, Victor’s story spans continents—and speaks to the resilience of the human spirit. Join us for a deeply personal conversation about memory, betrayal, survival, and the enduring quest for safety and freedom across generations.
