Beautiful photo from an audience member of the stunning singing Let it Snow in the snow. Thank you Noa and The Adam Schulman Quartet for bringing the catalogue of immigrant Jew-written Christmas songs to life throughout the evening.

You never know what’s going to happen at A Very Jewish Christmas Spectacular. Sometimes a KISS concert breaks out in the middle of a Jews Who Rock segment celebrating the life of superjew promoter Bill Graham. You just never know.

The Sklar Brothers brought the house down at The Fillmore. Thank you Randy and Jason for an incredible performance and for being so kind and supportive of the show. Check out their podcast View from The Cheap Seats, and see them on the most recent season of FX’s What We Do in the Shadows.

That’s right, it’s Cut or Uncut - the game show where 1 lucky contestant has to guess whether or not 2 culturally ambiguous men are circumcised by asking them stereotypically Jewish questions!

Congratulations to Lauren from Michigan, who won two kosher salamis with the help of our studio audience.

Still buzzing from this opening number at The Fillmore with The Maccababes.

Turns out that while Jews don’t run the world per se, we are doing very well for ourselves (all things considered).

Thank you to everyone who came to last night’s show. Performing in front of a full house at The Fillmore was surreal.

Just had a surprise visit from former SF BOS member and Jimmy Carter’s Assistant Secretary of the Interior, Bob Mendelsohn. Bob’s wife Ink Mendelsohn was a writer for the Smithsonian News Service, read our write up in The Chronicle, and wanted to share a piece she wrote on Irving Berlin back in 1988. There are some amazing insights on Berlin that I will 100% be including in the show.

Thank you so much Inky and Bob Mendelsohn for the history lesson and the incredible 113 year old postcard included in your lovely note (the stamp has Benjamin Franklin on it!). See you at The Fillmore on Thursday, and I hope you enjoy the show. -MM-

I swear we Jews don’t run the media - it’s just that good of a show. There are a few tickets left, but they’re going fast. Tap link in bio for tickets, or suffer the crushing guilt of Jewish FOMO.

Hot off the press (ok, The Chronicle's Datebook), it's a sweet little write up of the show. Read all about it.
Have you got your tickets yet? One night only THIS THURSDAY at The Fillmore.

A one-night variety show at the Fillmore celebrates, both musically and educationally, the Eastern European immigrants who wrote endearing yuletide classics.

Chanukah can't compete with Christmas, so what's a Jew to do? Find out in the guest blog post that our host, Michael Meyer wrote for Reboot.

We still have a few tickets left — don't miss out on the most spectacular Jewish event of the holiday season. Tap link in bio for tickets.

It’s brutal watching Chanukah get its butt kicked every year by Christmas. For American Jews, Christmas is unavoidable, and for Jewish American children, it’s irresistible. Candles and chocolate gelt don’t stand a chance against Christmas trees and candy canes, and Judah Maccabee and the Chanu...

Friend of the show, the late great Gilbert Gottfried was kind enough to make this video for last year’s production. He was a one-of-a-kind, uniquely hilarious Jew with a voice that still makes me laugh and haunts my dreams. We have some big name surprises for this year’s spectacular that you’re not going to want to miss. Tap link in bio for tickets.

This year’s show is at The Fillmore — the San Francisco venue made famous by legendary concert promoter, Bill Graham. This German-born Jew came to New York as an orphaned Holocaust survivor, found his way to San Francisco, and literally invented the benefit concert and the music festival. Fun fact: he also created the Bill Graham Menorah in Union Square, which started a worldwide trend of giant menorahs in city centers.
We’ll be celebrating Bill Graham in a big way at A Very Jewish Christmas Spectacular on December 8th with a rockin’ comedy and music show and menorah lighting that we know would make the legend proud. Don’t miss it — tap link in bio for tickets.
