Jen shares the local news stories from the past week, and then Real Housewives of New Jersey fans — you are in for a treat. Former Hoboken resident, business owner, and reality star Albie Manzo is spilling the tea with our listeners on his podcast, life in Hoboken, what he’s been up to, his life as an entrepreneur — and of course, for our Bravo TV fans — sharing some intel on the most recent Real Housewives happenings between his mom, Caroline Manzo, and Teresa Giudice.
Later in the show, Jen shares a hidden gem to check out this week {for the best chicken parm sandwich in JC, dare we say it}, a Pennsylvania getaway that is perfect for the holiday season, a non-profit to donate your time to, and our Hudson Hero + Zero.
Episode mentions: Margherita’s, Jack & Co, Hotel Bethlehem, City Bistro, Mordi’s, Airbnb, O’Bagel, Loquito, Ani Ramen, Hoboken Fire Department, Franklin Social, PJ Ryan’s, Miracle on Mercer, Mojo Coffee, Third and Vine, Dune + Salt, Augustino’s, Little Town, Ainsworth, 10th Street Pizza, Illuzion, and more.
