Wall-to-Waller
Two stories from producer Quinn Waller: hitting the road with an observant trucker and an inside look at NYC’s new, nontraditional Bagel Joint
This week on the show, we’re bringing you two stories from our producer Quinn Waller.
First up, we hit the road. After getting to know “Jeff the Truck Driver” through his Unorthodox voice mail submissions about keeping kosher while on his long-haul deliveries, we had to know more about this very unique Jew. Quinn hit the highways to figure out the challenges observant Jews face in this industry.
Then, Quinn brings us a story closer to home. She checks out Bagel Joint, a unique new bagel place in NYC that’s serving nontraditional flavors while still hewing to the legacy of traditional Jewish food.
