April 2025 Update: What's with Baum - An Upcoming Woody Novel????

We are sorry to say there will be no podcast episode for this month April 2025! While we, Don and James are out of town this month, we didn’t want to leave you completely hanging - so here’s a short update episode to keep things warm until we return next month in May. In this bite-sized instillment, we discuss the curious and quietly revealed news of Woody Allen’s first-ever novel, What’s with Baum?, slated for release on September 23, 2025, and published by Post Hill Press. The book centers on Asher Baum, a middle-aged Jewish journalist wrestling with anxiety, a fading career, and tangled family dynamics — a premise that feels like classic Woody territory. We do wonder if this is a pivot away from filmmaking moving forward as allen slows down on the movie releases, honestly we are seriously wondering if is this book release even real.. or have WE BEEN DUPED BY Ai? :P Well... as we all try to figure this out, you will of course, find the Amazon link to the book page below. What's with Baum? UK Amazon Link 🎙️ Donald and James will return next month for a full Woody Allen Adjacent episode discussing Stranger Than Fiction (2006), starring Will Ferrell, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Emma Thompson.
