I was recently interviewed by sports journalist Ed Odeven about my book Brick City Grudge Match. A Conversation with 'Brick City Grudge Match' Author Rod Honecker (Part 1) edodevenreporting.com/2024/05/17/a-c…


My book Brick City Grudge Match concludes with Tony Zale's championship belts being stolen. Attached is a NYT article on the thieving gang. Also a related segment on 60 Minutes tonight. The Gang That Preyed on America’s Small Museums nytimes.com/2024/04/07/art…


Honored to give a presentation on my book Brick City Grudge Match at the Gordon H. Mansfield Veterans Village in Tinton Falls, NJ. The Vets were gracious and engaged (and put the author through his paces with thoughtful questions). #VeteransVillage; #BrickCityGrudgeMatch
