TJ was invited to perform for the national songwriter television show, Songs at the Center on PBS. He also has delivered a powerful Tedx talk, “Driven by Passion and Vulnerability,” which universally touched audiences with music and storytelling.

“My music is a fusion of Pop, R&B, Folk and Blue-Eyed Soul, which creates a unique genre that I like to call Melodic Groove,” TJ says.

This was incredibly interesting & his communication was excellent. Can’t thank you enough for offering this – remarkable & quite an education – bits of advice we can all use day to day.

This was one of the best programs you have had. I think you said programs are not taped, but I think you would have given this one a A+++.

I can’t give enough stars. This was wonderful and the questions were thoughtful and answered with the grace and ease of a wonderful presenter.

I thought this program was very interesting. I enjoy my local theater and never knew or even imagined all the ins and outs of putting on a show. I would definitely be interested in any other program by this presenter.”

“James Calaski’s lecture on national, regional, and hyper-local history was professional and highly informative. Our patrons were incredibly engaged, the delivery was well-paced and articulate… We’ll be having him back!”

“Your knowledge of the German American Bund and their history is second to none… Your expertise, both from a historical and research perspective and also in the field, enabled us to capture phenomenal footage for our project… thank you for appearing in our film.”

Annette Baumeister
Documentary Film Director ('The American Führer')

“James Calaski’s gifts as a historian, coupled with his innate skills as a police detective, bring a unique perspective to his work. He is thorough in his research, always going to those places where the facts lead. All that, plus Jim’s personable style and good sense of humor make him an ideal presenter for any group event.”

FANTASTIC !!! She is an incredible lecturer. Only wish more time could have been spent on each segment of her presentation. Left me wishing for more. The blend of history and literature was so interesting and informative.
