Take your local chevra, add Hiten as the local Shabbos G who knows all the hock, Will as the BT who has secular world bona fides and experiences, institutional background, and the complete inability to pronounce anyone’s name properly. Just a fun time that may result in a hangover, definitely worth it. Top shelf stuff gents!
If you're tired of dry, surface-level real estate shows, The Promote is a breath of fresh air. The hosts deliver sharp, no-BS analysis on the biggest deals, market trends, and industry drama—in under 35 minutes.
