WAMC Radio, in Albany, produced this fun piece last week about the temple in the Berkshires where I spoke tonight – for ten minutes from my home – to tease my appearance there this summer (7.18.19 | 7:00 PM | Hevrah of Southern Berkshires | Great Barrington, MA). Have a listen below!

Below is the full description of the piece from their web site: 

The Berkshires’ Jewish Festival of Books — held at Hevreh of Southern Berkshire — and The Berkshire Jewish Film Festival of Knesset Israel are collaborating on an Egg Cream Eggstravaganza on Saturday, February 16 at 7 p.m. at Hevreh of Southern Berkshire in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.

The evening will begin with a screening of the short film “Egg Cream” by Nora Claire Miller, Peter Miller and Amy Linton. Following the film, author Barry Joseph will give the audience a taste via video of his book “Seltzertopia: The Extraordinary Story of an Ordinary Drink.” Then, audience members will be invited to share their own egg cream reminiscences and enjoy real siphon bottle seltzer, milk, and Fox’s U-Bet egg creams.

We were joined by Berkshire Jewish Film Festival Executive Director, Judy Seaman; Co-Chair of the Berkshires’ Jewish Festival of Books Avi Dresner; and “Egg Cream” co-director Peter Miller.

The event will kick off a week long egg cream special at the Great Barrington Bagel Company in Great Barrington, which will be doing a trial run for its Memorial Day through July 21 egg cream special to benefit the book festival.
