By Tim O'Donnell on December 21, 2018

Welcome back to Jet Lag. In this episode, Tim O’Donnell takes you to the roof of a SoHo apartment complex where a statue of Vladimir Lenin, sculpted in the Soviet Union, looks out at New York’s Financial District. But how does the statue’s location alter its meaning?
