Summary

Rachael's recent trip to NYCF was full of mishaps and late nights. From threatening to assault a gypsy cab driver who was ripping her off, to forgetting to bring flats and having to walk to meetings in hooker boots, to experiencing one of the busiest comedy work trips of her life -- Rachael recaps with her friend, native New Yorker, Christian Majewski. Christian and Rachael retell the story of how he tried to teach her to get around NYC from afar but eventually just tracked her via GPS (as he was naturally a bit concerned after she threatening her cab driver). Rookie New Yorker move, Rach. They then share their different NYC experiences, their favorite restaurant recommendations, and Christian's propensity for everything old school.
