Chirp: Monster Trucks and A Jewish Singles Meetup in Midtown

from New Yorker of the Week · host Nora Fried and Hanna Gerlander

There once was a DJ in Hoboken—a simple man. Jewish, kind, and, most importantly, single. After 20 years of attending Jewish singles events with no luck, he finally said, F*ck it! I’m going to become the HOST! And not just any host—he decided to run the ultimate Jewish singles event at the Marriott in Midtown on Saturday nights. Fast forward, and Nora has found her way to this legendary gathering, with quite the story(ies) to share. Meanwhile, Hanna is losing her mind at another NYC classic—the Monster Truck Jam at Barclays. Two NYC ladies, absolutely rocking this town! We know we say this every week, but this might just be our best Chirp yet. Enjoy! Xx Love us? Hate us? Keep in touch!  Check us out (yes, literally!) on YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Watch Now⁠⁠⁠  Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@highheelsandpunchlines⁠⁠⁠ And if you've fallen head over heels for our hosts (and who could blame you?), show them some love on Instagram too:  Hanna Gerlander: ⁠⁠⁠@hanna_gerlander⁠⁠⁠  Nora Fried: ⁠⁠⁠@norafriedcomedy⁠⁠⁠ Becky Hermenze - Production Manager and Video Editor: ⁠⁠⁠@beckywtheokhair⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Subscribe, follow,⁠⁠⁠ and get ready to dive into a world of humor and fabulousness with High Heels and Punchlines!
