SPOTTED - NYC Escapes: Jim Thorpe, PA
Gossipnista: A New York City Podcast
10/25/20 • 5 min
JimThorpe, a little gem located just two hours away from New York City is too charming not to share on this podcast.
All New Yorker’s need a little weekend escape here and there, so in this short-spotted episode find out why this town is called the “Switzerland of America” and often included on national “Best Lists”.
It’s a town filled with tons of character all year round, but it’s especially my favorite during Halloween, with its haunted mansions and old world charm which make for a spooky destination. Not to mention, it’s vintage train ride, which feels as though you’re traveling on the Pineapple Express.

Gossipnista: A New York City Podcast
12/27/21 • 59 min
It's the finale episode of season 4 and we're talking Transition and Newcomers to NYC...
It has been particularly challenging the last two years for those moving in, out, or around the city and will continue to be so going into 2022.
Episode 48 brings you writer, real estate publicist, and expert, Kelly Kreth to share her wild NYC story and talk more about her role at Brick Underground, which is a one-stop online resource on all things real estate as well as an informative guide on living in the city and also a platform for sharing real New Yorkers living situations.
In our interview Kelly will dive into two big narratives that have defined NYC’s ever revolving housing door the last two years. She’ll note how newcomers to the city are happy to be part of the city’s “rebirth” after the ‘New York is Dead’ conundrum that has plagued the city and caused an uproar amongst many. She’ll also dive into what New Yorkers have transitioned into the most during the pandemic, as well as, where one can get the biggest bang for their buck in the city, and also share some crazy living stories that may make one think twice about moving here.
Kelly is the first guest interview ever where someone had absolutely no negative feedback about NYC. Her positive reinforcement comes through as she states that, “no matter how long you’ve lived in New York...you’ll always still feel honored just to be here.”
Enjoy the interview with Kelly Kreth and be sure to check out all the links at the bottom of the show notes here. You can catch Kelly’s email and share your New York living story with her & Brick Underground.

As home prices continue to rise, some will have the opportunity to buy a home in the city; others may inherit a family home in one of the boroughs; many will move to New York and rent an apartment as the majority will come and go. However, few will have conquered the city in such a short amount of time as my guest Demi Palmer has done and did it all before the age of 25. Making New York City her backyard and playground, Demi is only 20 minutes away from the heart of the city, West Village.
With light, love, humility, transparency and serendipitous moments that can only happen in New York City, Demi, holds nothing back in our interview and shares her New York story as well as pathway to home buying in Jersey City, for anyone looking to make that move now or in the future. “It’s an extension of New York”!

New Yorkers in LA with Daniel Zahler
Gossipnista: A New York City Podcast
06/01/22 • 54 min
New Yorkers in LA - do you feel the heat already on this topic or is it just the weather!? This topic never gets old and there’s so much to learn from those who call these places home as well as their fascinating stories.
My guest today, @danielzahler started a movement to unite New Yorkers in Los Angeles. That’s right, The New York Times picked up Daniel’s unique, yet much needed community of New Yorkers, who have made the transition to Los Angeles and who have connected through a What’s App group of 250 ppl (with a waitlist to join) called, NYC in LA.
Why he started this community and more on what his New York & LA story is - you’ll have to tune into the episode for that. However, what I can share is that Daniel has so many tips for both coasts along with pizza recommendations that will have you wanting to visit both cities to confirm.
Daniel is a Harvard graduate in Chemistry & Chemical Biology, and has a JD from Harvard Law School. He even had a fellowship at Yale Medical School. He knows his east coast and is currently making his best life in the west coast while promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Also did I mention, he not only offers multiple quotes on New York City, but he also shares a poem intertwining the city and Burning Man as one. Queue the heat and enjoy the episode!

Gossipnista: A New York City Podcast
05/18/21 • 64 min
Shots on New York - served with a side of french fries. Yes please! You’ll have to tune into the episode to hear the whole story on the fries. In the meantime, one can actually get tickets to some of New York’s most popular locations right now if you sign-up/walk-in to get the vaccine shot. Sign me up!
Episode 29: I had the honor of speaking with one of New York’s frontline essential healthcare workers, Karla Mabini. Karla is currently assisting in distributing the covid-19 vaccines throughout New York City. When she’s not helping administer shots, you can find her saving lives in the operating room as an Intraoperative nurse in the city.
In our interview today, get ready to hear her recount some of the challenges faced in 2020. Also, hear some of the beautiful moments New York offered it’s healthcare workers during these trying times. Karla is an advocate on getting the vaccine shot and shares why it’s important we move towards “herd immunity", while also helping to answer questions we may or may not already know about the vaccines, during our conversation.
Ultimately, her light, love and gratitude for life and everyone who’s supported essential healthcare workers shine through. This is a must listen from someone who has experienced it all!
Karla wanted to express her gratitude to the following businesses below. Please check them out and see how you can support-
Specialized - Specialized gave Karla and other healthcare workers a commuter bike which they could use to go to work. It was a immense resource and alternative mode of transportation especially at the height of the pandemic to fell safer.
Transportation Alternative - This company helped match Karla with Specialized for a commuter bike. They accept bikes (used or new) to be given to those who needs it.
First Descents: Experience the Healing Power of Adventure - During 2020 this company awarded Karla and several healthcare workers with an all expenses paid rock climbing trip upstate. They generally serve Cancer and MS patients to offer these life changing outdoor adventures - but of course they made an exception for healthcare workers.

New York's Buddy the Rat with Jonothon Lyons
Gossipnista: A New York City Podcast
08/16/21 • 60 min
It’s a rat-race in the city and my guest today has figured it out, how to be a local by giving back to NYC in more than one way...
Jonothon Lyons is the talented actor, creative, and performer behind the mask and viral sensation in New York City, Buddy the Rat.
Head on over to my Instagram (@gossipnistapodcast) to see photos/meet Jonothon if you haven’t already. This is an interview not only sharing the creation of ‘Buddy the Rat,’ but the New York story and journey of the man behind it.
Taking on the streets of New York during the pandemic entertaining and sometimes maybe even scarring city dwellers and tourist alike, Jonothon has embodied one of New York’s most illustrious inhabitants - the rat!
Hand crafting the rat mask himself, as well as the squeaky long rat tale, the large pizza slice he sometimes carries, a huge mouse trap and many other props that he developed out of his New York City apartment and sometimes even on his stoop for more room. Can we hear it for Jonothon’s one small step for a rat, and one giant leap for rat-kind! #BuddytheRat
Jonothon Lyons was destined to stardom at a young age, with his many talents as an actor, singer, dancer, pianist, playwright, director, creator, and the list can go on. But, would you believe me if I said this is not the first rat he’s played the role of and it’s almost as though he was meant to create Buddy the Rat from the onset.
See a photo of him as Templeton from Charlotte’s Web at a young age on Instagram at (@jonothonlyons).
With many other exciting projects in the work for Jonothon, such as his creation of 'The Apple Boys' play, a short film called 'Rat', and a lot of cool projects to come from Buddy the Rat, you’ll have to tune into the full episode to hear all about this and much more, plus Jonothon getting real about living in New York City and the many opportunities it offers.
