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.

I could have listened to him for at least another hour. It was a fascinating presentation!

Parker Life Senior Living Attendee

Speaker was great! Presentation thoughtfully included enough time at the end for questions, which enhanced the presentation with additional information. Thank you for thinking of such an intriguing topic in the series!

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.”

Arnie Bernstein
Author of 'Swastika Nation: Fritz Kuhn and the Rise and Fall of the German-American Bund'

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.

Writing Your Next Act

In conjunction with fitness professional turned novelist, Linda Rosen, Jami shares her personal journey of reinventing herself as a “ghostwriter” after believing her writing career was over when generative AI came on the scene. This was about the time she turned 60 and already felt doomed to irrelevance in a corporate world dominated by Gen Z and late Millennials. (Please don’t call her a Boomer, technically she’s on the cusp.)

Their quirky (Jami) and compassionate (Linda) styles create a safe space for attendees to talk about their own dabbling passions—or those they’ve always thought about but have been too hesitant to try. Through a lively, interactive dialogue, attendees will find inspiration, ideas, and the courage to confront their next acts head on—whether through writing or any endeavor that may be calling to them.

The Ghost And Mr. Miller: The Story Of Miller’s Ale House

Jack Miller knew he wanted to write a book long before Miller’s Ale House made #1 on USA Today’s 10 Best Sports Bars list for 2025. In his new book, Our Way: How Claire and Jack Miller Built America’s Favorite Ale House, he shares how he and his wife Claire started the first Ale House in Jupiter, Florida, nearly 40 years ago, and how they grew it into the extraordinarily popular national chain it is today.

In this revealing and heartwarming discussion, Jami Kelmenson, Mr. Miller’s ghostwriter, shares their journey of documenting his journey—along with advice to restaurateurs and entrepreneurs, thoughts on longevity and giving back, and building a business with your spouse, gleaned from one of the GOAT (greatest of all time) legends in the restaurant industry.

Note: A resident of Juno Beach, Florida, Mr. Miller will make every effort to attend Florida sessions in person.
