Comedy Showcase: Standup Comedy With Modi on New York Taxis and Their Drivers
Modi (Mordechai Rosenfeld) is a stand-up comedian that we can't get enough of. We've featured his routines and performances as a character actor a few times on Jewish Humor Central. In January, we posted part of his performance a few years ago at the Comic Strip Live club in New York.
Born April 29th, 1970 in Tel Aviv, Israel, Modi Rosenfeld moved to New York City with his family when he was 7. Before entering comedy, he was a Wall Street international banker. He now goes solely by the name Modi and is known for creating accents and characters.
Today we're sharing another segment of the same appearance at the Comic Strip Club. Modi opens with a description of how he's been finding cell phones in New York cabs, and goes on to a hilarious set of taxi driver impersonations.
Enjoy!
