The
Jewish Radio Mafia: Nudge
A.K.A.:
"The Kid"
From: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Age: 22 years
Been in Radio: 6 years
Heard On: Star 94, "Nudge at Night"
HIGHS, LOWS AND RED SPEEDOS: "I
was an intern at 16 at the radio station concert, and
one of the DJs wasn’t there in time," remembers
Nudge. "So in front of 25,000 people I walk out on
stage, 130 lbs. of twisted steel and sex appeal. I had
no idea what I was doing." Then he took those 130
lbs. to a Miami morning show. "I remember standing
on the top of a van in the busiest intersection during
morning rush hour in nothing but a red Speedo." Talk
about paying your dues.
STALKERS CAN BE FUN: When he arrived
in Atlanta, knowing nobody, Nudge gave JDate a try. Turns
out there are some crazies on there, and he ended up being
stalked even at his home. "At least it was a Jewish
stalker," smiles the 22-year-old. "I’d
rather have a Jewish stalker than a shiksa stalker."
A MENSCH HE IS: "Judaism is a very
big deal. Before I went to college [at Temple University,
for one semester] I went on Birthright Israel," says
Nudge. "As I get older, I just feel a bigger connection
to it."
FOR ADDED MEASURE: "Oy vey. You
can throw one of those into the interview."
