Looking to laugh during the eight crazy nights? I have shows in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv so mark your calendars now. On Thursday, the 22nd, and Saturday, the 24th, my comedy troupe Hahafuch is putting on variety shows with all new sketches, our brand new “Aliyah Diaries” (think “The Vagina Monologues” but with fewer lady parts [...]

“My Name is Avi Liberman and I Approved This Message”
It’s that time of year again; we’re just days away from the annual Comedy for Koby winter tour. I’m always surprised to meet an Anglo who hasn’t heard of it but anything is possible. B’kitzur, nice Jewish boy Avi Liberman is back, along with three more American comedians to make us laugh, all for a good [...]
It’s the “Occupy Bamba Comedy Tour!”
Shalom from a suburban Starbucks somewhere in North America. As I wrote on FB and Twitter a bit ago, if aliens ever do invade Planet Earth, they should disguise their spaceship as a Starbucks.

Fall Comedy Tour 2011: Open For Booking

Five Years in Israel: What Does Aliyah Look Like?
On August 9th/10th, 2006, I did the craziest, boldest, scariest, and most exciting thing I have ever done: move to Israel. Where have the last five years gone? I have been anticipating this day for some time now and I knew I’d have to mark it on my blog (if not also in real life), [...]
Get Taxi App / Joel Chasnoff Comedy Show
Argh. It’s not yet 7 AM and I’m awake. I was also awake before 6 AM which is probably a result of being asleep by 10 PM. If I had milk for my coffee, I might feel differently right now but both makolot (convenience stores) next to my apartment are closed. What fun is it [...]
