SHOW NOTES: <a href= "https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2025/08/the-five-books.html">https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2025/08/the-five-books.html</a>  TRANSCRIPT: <a href= "https://otter.ai/u/newZynBRoGzWkdF7PaTnzDLDSP4?utm_source=copy_url">https://otter.ai/u/newZynBRoGzWkdF7PaTnzDLDSP4?utm_source=copy_url</a>  The Five Books is a new literary Jewish podcast hosted by Tali Rosenblatt Cohen in partnership with the Jewish Book Council. I'm very happy to welcome another show to our little corner of the book world, so I invited Tali to do a mutual interview. We interviewed each other, and the episode will appear on both our podcast feeds.  LEARN MORE: <ul> <li> <a href="https://www.fivebookspod.org/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">The Five Books Podcast website</a> </li> <li> Highlights of past episodes: o <a href= "https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2008/06/brand-spanking-new-part-1-jewish.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Yale Strom on The Book of Life</a> o <a href="https://www.fivebookspod.org/episodes/ep-18" target= "_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Gayle Forman on The Five Books</a> </li> <li> Recommended podcasts: o Heidi: <a href="https://jewishlibraries.org/nicejewishbooks/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Nice Jewish Books</a>, <a href="https://recognizablyjewish.substack.com/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Recognizably Jewish</a>, <a href= "https://afuse8production.slj.com/category/fuse-8-n-kate/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Fuse 8 and Kate</a> o Tali: <a href= "https://www.hartman.org.il/program/identity-crisis-podcast/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">Identity/Crisis</a>, <a href= "https://www.dansenor.com/callmeback" target="_blank" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">Call Me Back</a>, <a href= "https://www.newyorker.com/podcast/fiction" target="_blank" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">The New Yorker Fiction Podcast</a>, <a href="https://www.elizabethday.org/podcasts" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">How to Fail</a> </li> <li style="font-weight: bold;">For the full list of all the books we discussed, plus links to other past podcast swaps I've recorded, see the <a href= "https://open.substack.com/pub/bookoflifepodcast/p/podcast-the-five-books?r=16b2w9&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true"> Substack post for this episode</a>.</li> </ul> CREDITS: <ul> <li>Produced by <a href="https://login.cbiboca.org/fcl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Feldman Children's Library</a> at <a href="https://www.cbiboca.org/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Congregation B'nai Israel</a></li> <li>Co-sponsored by the <a href= "https://jewishlibraries.org/">Association of Jewish Libraries</a></li> <li>Sister podcast: <a href= "https://jewishlibraries.org/nicejewishbooks/">Nice Jewish Books</a></li> <li>Theme Music: <a href= "https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2006/01/book-of-life-on-book-awards-january.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Freilachmakers Klezmer String Band</a></li> <li>Newsletter: <a href= "https://bookoflifepodcast.substack.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">bookoflifepodcast.substack.com</a></li> <li>Facebook Discussion Group: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/JewishKidlitMavens" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Jewish Kidlit Mavens</a></li> <li>Facebook Page: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/Bookoflifepodcast/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Facebook.com/bookoflifepodcast</a></li> <li>Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/bookoflifepodcast/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">@bookoflifepodcast</a></li> <li>Support the Podcast: <a href= "https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/p/support.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shop or Donate</a></li> </ul> Your feedback is welcome!
