I am Zoom-presenting Zaidy's War to a wonderful community library. The evening will be Zaidy’s 106th birthday AND 78th wedding anniversary, and it is filled with meaning that I can present on such an occasion.

Zaidy's War - Finkelstein Memorial Library

New York libraries are inviting me too! Glad to head over to this one to deliver a talk on Zaidy's War.

Not my first time podcasting a Zaidy's War discussion live, but my first time my host is out of India! How about that!

Traveling to nearly the southernmost tip of my state to deliver a discourse on Zaidy's War in yet another accommodating and welcoming NJ library.

Zaidy's War will be the topic for this interestingly-named podcast and the interesting host behind it.

Headed out to this Mamaroneck of the woods to present Zaidy's War. Libraries feel like home.

All who are available from the entire lineup of writers who have created work for Amsterdam Publishers will be turning up at this event, and will take their turn behind the lectern, and the public is invited. I will be numbered amongst them, and I'm going to explain how the publication of Zaidy's War affected my life.

The topic that I'm bringing Zaidy's War to could not be more apt, and we'll likely zero in on the survivor/survivalist aspect of Zaidy's experience.

Broadcasting not just from Down Under, but Way Down Under to hear about Zaidy's War. This is going to be fascinating and interesting.

I'm actually doing two talks at this one event. First, I'll be presenting Zaidy's War during a morning breakfast. Then I'll have a bit and coffee, and we'll pivot anew to my haggadah talk. Should be a great time.

This is going to be interesting. Mr. Jesse Jackson wants to hear about Zaidy's War from the storyteller perspective. I'm game.

He also has set forth a curious and fun thing that's his hallmark for all episodes: giving him my opinion about whether or not Mary gets into the car at the end of Bruce Springsteen's Thunder Road. Betcha never thought about that!

Podmatch next paired me up with Mr. Joe Dimino, out of Kansas City, and I'm looking forward as well to our conversation about Zaidy's War.

Podmatch paired me up with Jason, and I'm looking forward to our conversation about Zaidy's War.

Talking about Zaidy's War at their Yom HaShoah event. I'm always honored to do so.

I'm closing the show! After publishing haggadah #5, This Haggadah is The Way (AKA The Star Wars Haggadah), I've earned the right to talk about haggadah history itself, and my own haggadah history. Pumped.

Martin Bodek to Speak At YU Seforim Sale - The Jewish Link

Congregation Lev L’Daas to Host Book Talk With Martin Bodek - The Jewish Link

First of two talks of the day. First stop: the Men's Club south of me in Princeton Junction want to hear about Zaidy's War, then...

I'll be presenting Zaidy's War remotely to a fascinating group of folks. They've read the book beforehand, so the conversation should be interesting.

I'm presenting Zaidy's War remotely to a fascinatingly situation congregation on the Left Coast. Should be fun and interesting.
