HumorOutcasts.com The place to take a humor break. HOPress Shorehouse Books Our guest on this episode is Ed Friedman who is the author of, “I Will Not Be Ignored.” I Will Not Be Ignored combines fiction, non-fiction, and opinion to create a humorous take on three aspects of the author’s thinking: his outlook on the proliferation of “current wisdom” so plentiful in the internet age; his imaginings, providing multiple answers to different versions of “what if?”, and his personal experience in navigating his own shortcomings, failures, and fears. On this episode, Ed shares some information about what it was like for him growing up in the Bronx, his style as a humor writer, and his not profit organization that encourages creative aging by promoting the inclusion of arts education programs in organizations that serve older adults.
