#257: Modi Rosenfeld - Moshiach Energy

Funny In Failure

Modi Rosenfeld is a stand-up comedian and actor. He was voted one of the top 10 comedians in New York City by The Hollywood Reporter. He is one of the comedy circuit’s most sought after performers. Featured on HBO, CBS, NBC, ABC, Comedy Central, Howard Stern, and E! Entertainment, Modi has received rave reviews in The New York Times, Time Out NY and The New York Post. Born in Tel Aviv, Israel, Modi emigrated with his family to the United States at the age of seven and was raised on Long Island. After graduating from Boston University, he worked as an investment banker until his first open-mic night made him realize that stand-up was his true calling. Equipped with a sharp wit and a knack for reading his audience, Modi has gone on to become a successful fixture in New York's comedy scene, often doing bits that incorporate his heritage. He is a hit with audiences of all backgrounds and beliefs.

He is now a regular performer at the New York and Los Angeles comedy clubs but has also become well known across the US and also across the globe. He is currently touring so check out the links below if you’d like to see him.

Modi has played himself on HBO's Crashing and Netflix's When Jews Were Funny. He's also appeared in several feature films and played leading roles in two: Waiting for Woody Allen, which won the LA Film Festival, and Stand Up, a feature-length film. In 2018, Mayor Bill De Blasio declared June 26th 'Mordechi Modi Rosenfeld Day' in the city of New York for his accomplishments and contributions to the artistic community.

Modi has a brand new comedy special - Know Your Audience which is hilarious (links in episode notes below) and he also hosts the popular Podcast, and Here’s Modi.
