Hi. 7 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 1: Sounds like a soup. 8 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 2: It's not a soup, yella. It is a soup. But 9 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: even better, it's also one of the greatest parties of 10 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 2: the year. It's been happening for thirty eight years actually, 11 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 2: and this year we're doing it in seven major cities 12 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 2: in the US. So if you're not going on Christmas Eve, 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 2: what are you doing? 14 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: Okay, So let's talk about the problem. Thirty eight years ago, 15 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 1: some person said, what are people between the ages of 16 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: like twenty and forty do on Christmas Eve? When literally 17 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: everything's closed and they're not necessarily celebrating the birth of 18 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: Christ most people in America as celebrating the birth of consumerism. 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 1: I think, but whatever, and so what do they do? 20 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: And somebody came up with this concept, Well, this is 21 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: a night to party all night. Is that what happened? 22 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: Well, yes, yes, yes, definitely yes. But Andrew, actually I 23 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: dread Nick, the founder Monsibal, was looking for his wife 24 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: and he was like, listen, you know what, I'm going 25 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: to throw the biggest and best party of the year. 26 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 2: And what he did was he goes, what did Jewish 27 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 2: people do on Christmas Eve? Besides the Chinese food? And 28 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 2: you know, just count fingers and there behold came the 29 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 2: Massibal and it's been notorious ever since. Just about ten 30 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: years after creating his first monsible, he found his Jewish 31 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 2: wife at Yeah, I took him ten years, but listen, 32 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: I mean it's a little different when you're working it 33 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 2: versus attending, that's for sure. I mean we've had thousands 34 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: of marriages and counting. There's people that come back that 35 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: have babies and they just want to celebrate it, joy 36 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: the night and just honor of all the great should 37 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: us and like partnership that we've been able to create 38 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 2: between young Jewish people. 39 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: And according to your website, you've had nearly half a 40 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: million people attend these things since nineteen eighty seven. And I, 41 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: you know, I was curious, so I clicked on a 42 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: lot of the videos from places like Miami, Boston, Philadelphia. 43 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: There ain't nothing religious about these parties. There was a 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: lot of and but grabbing, twerk and dance into DJs. 45 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: This is a very modern party. 46 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: Right well, I mean listen, everybody has free choice. I 47 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 2: think that's that's the bottom line as far as what 48 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 2: you know, the Massa ball is, it's just the night 49 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: to have a good time and be around young Jewish 50 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: people that are single and want to mingle and enjoy 51 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: in some of the greatest cities in the US. So 52 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: that's really the bottom line. But it's really it's really 53 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: just a night to have fun and get to know people. 54 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: Okay, So there is alcohol served. So if somebody is, 55 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: you know, seriously religious and doesn't even drink alcohol, probably 56 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: not the place for them. Or they can order soda water. 57 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: Right yeah, I mean listen, we in Judaism you can 58 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 2: drink so as well. I mean, good some holidays even 59 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: promote it, believe it or not. It's very apart, very 60 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: much so a part of our culture. We have wine 61 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: every Shabbat. I mean, it's very normal. So I think 62 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 2: even if you are religious, I mean, we have different 63 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: ranges of religious observance that you attend. But I will 64 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 2: say that most of the people that do attend are 65 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: a little more secular. But we do have religious people. 66 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: We have all different types of modern orthdox. I mean, 67 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter if you're a Jew. You're a Jew 68 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 2: and you're more than welcome to join. 69 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: And so it's on Christmas Eve. And tell me the city. 70 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: So you said seven cities. 71 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: Yes, okay, So we have New York, we have Miami, 72 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: we have Foca, we have Boston, we have DC, we 73 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: have Philly, and we have la. 74 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: I love it. You just call it Boca, thinking that 75 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: everybody will not. I actually lived in Boca ratone one 76 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: time and for a short period of time, and I 77 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: used to call it God's waiting room. It's quite a 78 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: retirement community too. 79 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: But you're Jewish and you don't know what Boka is, Like, 80 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: what are you doing right exactly? 81 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 1: And Philadelphia, Washington, d C, Boston, Los Angeles? Where is 82 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: it here in Los Angeles? Where are you holding it? 83 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? So we're actually hold on. There's so many amazing cities. 84 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: I'll give me a second. Well, look it up. 85 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: Where the cool venue is. I'm going to tell people 86 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: that this year they've done something interesting. At the Box 87 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: of Ball, they have paired with a Jewish dating app 88 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: called I'm Not making fun here Jews. You know what 89 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: that means. It's j e w zz see in that 90 00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: cool Jews Jews.

So, actually, the coolest thing about 98 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: jess and the reason we work with Jesus is because 99 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: if you are going to Massibal, it's totally free to 100 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: join the app, and every single person that's at the 101 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: Massi Ball is most likely on the app, and if 102 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: they're not, they're going to get on the app by 103 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: the end of the Massible. So the goal is to 104 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 2: get everybody on there, because hey, you never know if 105 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 2: you have time to speak to everybody at the party, 106 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: and there's a lot of cute singles that want to 107 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 2: mingle and go out on wonderful dates, and you'll have 108 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: the opportunity to connect with them.
