Tom PriceCORRESPONDENT
It's like, who knew any of this? So it turns out Fiorello La Guardia was obviously of Italian descent, but only on his father's side.
Tom PriceCORRESPONDENT
On his mother's side, it was from a family, well, technically Italian, the city of Trieste, which was a melting pot and was the major port for the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Tom PriceCORRESPONDENT
And his mother... had a double-barreled, famous Sephardic last name, which was Cohen, without the H, C-O-E-N, and Luzzatto.
Tom PriceCORRESPONDENT
And you can tell your listeners who the great Rabbi Luzzatto is,
Sam CohonHOST
And that's where Fiorello LaGuardia became, of all things, an Episcopalian because his father was an atheist Catholic and his mother was a non-practicing Sephardic Jew, as you noted.
Sam CohonHOST
Really interesting story.
Sam CohonHOST
So Trieste, where LaGuardia's parents met, I don't think many of us know much about what is actually a fascinating city.
Tom PriceCORRESPONDENT
Trieste is a city well worth a visit, if not several visits.

An uphill time trial to Campo di Giove is also rumoured.

David Crepaz-KeayGUEST
I mean, the history of that goes back to...
David Crepaz-KeayGUEST
They borrowed a lot of their ideas from Trieste in Italy, going back to the kind of 60s and 70s.
David Crepaz-KeayGUEST
So, you know, there are places that are doing some stuff really well, and there are some great... services in the UK around the country but it's just difficult and one size doesn't fit all so you know something that works very well in one place may just not work well in another
