Are you ready for Season 2 of Gossip Girl on Dec. 1st?!? 
I hope you everyone enjoyed the thanksgiving festivities, because I have one more juicy dish to bring to the table on this New York Sunday. 
In giving my thanks, I’m grateful Gossip Girl existed, inspiring the Gossipnista podcast to be born, then bringing GG 2.0 to life in a bigger & bolder way, ultimately leading me to my run-in & interview with the talented & fun actor, Johnathan Fernandez, who plays Nick Lott, a series regular on the New Gossip Girl. 
So the questions are…..has dad Nick Lott gone bad boy in the upcoming season of GG? And, do him & Zoya end up caught up in the glitz & glamour of Manhattan losing their bond along the way? Oh, and where does that unassuming relationship between Nick Lott and Ms. Kate Keller go? Rumor has it, it’s all or nothing. Sparks will fly as Georgina light’s up the second season and Monet de Haan had better watch out thinking she can be Queen B. The sisterly love/hate relationship between Zoya & Julien continues as does the ménage à trois with Max, Aki, and Audrey. So much to cover and so little time! 
You’ll have to tune into my podcast interview with Johnathan to get the scoop on some of these topics, plus get a behind the scenes story of the GG cast members living in the city. Johnathan will of course, share his relationship with New York and his perspective as a native, as well as dive into his acting career. 
And might there be another O.G. cast member making any appearance this upcoming season - I'll never tell! Enjoy the interview.

This weeks guest is, Shiloh Frederick, creator of @shilohinthecity a resource for exploring NYC in a different way (off the beaten path with a New Yorker who’s rediscovering her city and takes everyone along for the ride). Shiloh shares fun history lessons and facts from all the city boroughs (not just Manhattan) and she also makes it so interesting and inviting. 
In our lighthearted, yet very informative conversation, Shiloh drops so much insight on NYC, plus 2-3 things to do in each borough. She mentions the attraction that brought her to tears and shares why Staten Island is often forgotten. She’ll also get into food places to explore, facts about NYC you may not want to hear, and her number one tip to Native New Yorkers and those looking to call NYC home. 

It’s been a 3 years in the making to have the honor to interview Shiloh and I hope you enjoy our conversation. Be sure to reach out if you have any questions.

Living in New York City is attainable, but not without many learnings along the way. In this week’s episode I sat down with Brittney Scardina, a new local to the city, who although did some extensive research before her move to NYC - she never saw the Ikea couch situation coming her way that would become one of her first #onlyinnewyork moments (like an episode of FRIENDS), and a pretty hilarious one yet, although not so funny when you’re actually living it. 
Brittney was an absolute joy to speak with, she brought a different perspective and approach to her move to New York City and she’ll share her tips in our interview. You can expect everything from:
Why having a real estate agent/broker was pivotal to her move How research and visiting the city ahead of her move was so impactful for a smoother transitionHow coming with an open mind and a side of grit is a recipe for success in the cityAnd, why she choose the neighborhood she moved to plus so much more! You won’t believe how lucky she got in getting her apartment in the height of the summer in 2022 when rent prices were soaring and the housing stock was limited post pandemic and everyone returning to the city.
Tune in and let us know what you think or if you have a moving to New York story you'd like to share.

Hello New York lovers and New Yorkers, how I’ve missed you all. I’m dropping into your feeds unexpectedly today to finish off season 5 of the Gossipnista podcast. You can expect a couple new episodes to come that will round up the completion of season 5 in the next few weeks.
And, do I have some City Confessions to start you off with. The fabulous Mariann Yip, opens up the 2nd half  of season 5 discussing the city of course, her NYC podcast, and her new dating book ‘UN-Hinged’, as well as sharing a BIG life moment that recently turned her life upside down (in an unexpectedly/unplanned, but wonderful way), which makes for a future book about New York City that will leave you surprised and inspired all at the same time. 
We also discuss her New York upbringing and how she believes some native New Yorkers can learn to let go of their NYC ego and pride a bit more (keepin it real). She dives into what life was like growing up in Manhattan and why she prefers Brooklyn, and sooooo much more!
Thanks to everyone for your patience and support in letting me continue to bring you this podcast and conversations that I enjoy so much. Be sure to look out for new releases on the weekends and moving forward, plus maybe a BIG city confession of mine as we wrap up the season.
