Make it Date Night at Side Splitters, Tampa’s Premier Comedy Showcase

Speaking of which, we’re back, baby! You’ve missed the nightlife, haven’t you? We all have. For more than a year, date night has meant a pizza dropped off at your doorstep by a teenager in a mask who makes a run for the car as soon as he detects movement behind your door.

Now it means chuckles and drinks in an actual away-from-home location with other laughing adults.

“We’ve made Side Splitters the ideal place to enjoy life for a few hours in the company of friends and loved ones,” says (name, title). “Check it out once and you’ll keep coming back. It’s guaranteed.”

Side Splitters earned its reputation for big laughs by hosting just about every national act who’s split sides for the last couple of decades. Upcoming shows include the likes of impressionist Frank Caliendo, actor-comic Jamie Kennedy, the legendarily and hilariously dirty Tom Green, funny guy-author Todd Barry, and Dan Mintz, the voice of Tina Belcher on Fox’s Bob’s Burgers, among many, many others.

You’re also invited to put one or several of the following nationally touring stand-up comedians on your schedule: Chad Daniels, Angelo Tsarouchas, Ms. Pat, JJ Curry, Daryl Wright, April Macie, Sean Finnerty and Finesse Mitchell. And that’s only a handful of performers dropping by and taking center stage over the next few months. Check out the Side Splitters Events page regularly to see how many great excuses you always have for hysterical nights out.

Got something else in mind besides a visit? Side Splitters is even available on a to-go basis. That’s right. If you can’t come here, your Side Splitters stand-up will come to you. This is the perfect main attraction for birthday and anniversary parties, and business and social events of all kinds. Just contact Side Splitters and share your budget and how you’d like the event to proceed and the ideal headliner is headed your way. Fill out the brief booking request form and a booking specialist from Side Splitters will get in touch with you.

You can take Side Splitters to the next level by becoming a VIP Club member at no cost. In addition to a whole lot of other exclusive fun features, you could win free or discount tickets to upcoming shows.

Side Splitters gift cards are available for the people you love, or at least put up with. Order them in amounts ranging from $5 (for more of an annoying co-worker than a friend) to $250 (for you and the love of your life, or a bunch of rowdy friends and unforgettable times).

Feelin’ funny? Put it all on the line and sweat it out behind the mic during our next Comics Night Out, sponsored by Ledo Pizza. Or stay at your table and maybe help discover America’s next national comedy phenom. Either way, learn more about the award-winning action here.

Side Splitters is all over social media, too. You can follow your favorite Tampa Bay comedy club on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.

So be sure to check out Side Splitters Comedy Club in cyberspace. But the best way to visit is in person. Start planning your date night, bachelor/bachelorette party, after-work get-together, or nights of laughs for any reason or for no reason at all.

Side Splitters, Tampa Bay’s premier comedy showcase, is located at 12938 N. Dale Mabry Highway in Tampa. A second location will open soon at The Grove at Wesley Chapel. More on that later.

New York City’s Faith & Fashion Icon Pens Inspiring Opus in a Fight for Her Life

The House of Faith and Fashion: What My Wardrobe Taught Me About G-d releases on May 13th, 2021 and is a collection of essays and conversations that fuse together fashion and faith — two subjects that are traditionally juxtaposed, yet are brought together seamlessly within these pages, as if they had always belonged and had never existed separately. The attention-grabbing cover was designed by none other than Elizabeth Sutton, giving perfect visual representation to the beauty found in the content inside.

Through The House of Faith and Fashion, Tobi works to reveal G-d’s presence in fashion, jewelry, art, beauty, and style through the unique lens of Jewish teachings. She completed the book during the fight for her life against Müllerian ovarian cancer, an aggressive carcinoma requiring equally aggressive medical care.

Through her cancer diagnosis and the challenges of treatment, Tobi created an extraordinary chronicle of faith and fashion that elevates the creative process to divine proportions. Her collection of thoughtful, profound, and sometimes poignant essays illustrate to readers how the creation of fashion and art can become a channel through which to express one’s faith and connection with their spirituality.

“Brilliantly redraws the borders between spiritual and physical beauty.” — Chief Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt

The House of Faith and Fashion began as a weekly column for a local newspaper and has since flourished to a robust treasury of essays that weave spirituality into every aspect of the fashion and creative industries. The book continues Tobi’s work with top international designers, fashion editors, jewelers, artists, and influencers like Manolo Blahnik and Carolina Herrera. Tobi weaves spiritual awareness into her work with fashion figureheads at events like the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Exhibit and New York Fashion Week to create an opus that takes a fresh new look at style and spirituality.

“I definitely found my niche, that’s for sure,” Tobi explains. “Nobody else has put together chief Rabbis and fashion editors together to discuss their craft and then bring it all [together] with clear Biblical and Judaic thought,” she says.

The book is clearly organized and divided into five chapters, each with about twelve to fourteen essays. This format is designed specifically to make the book easier to pick up and put down as needed to fit busy lifestyles.

“It’s not really about me; it’s not my memoir,” Rubinstein says. “I became ordained as a path to gaining more understanding and digging deeper. It’s not necessarily a title I go by. I’ve learned that my title is myself and that titles really don’t matter in life. It’s about relaying your message in a way that you can impact people. [I believe] that creativity on all levels is a gift from G-d.”  

“For so many decades, fashion, art, jewelry, and beauty has been looked at in this vain, purposeless, self-contained way,” Tobi continues. “I’m putting a new layer to it, saying ‘No, it’s not.’ In my first essay, The Haute and the Holy, I talk about the fact that the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s most successful costume exhibit was Heavenly Bodies, about the Catholic church. I refer back to the two chapters in the Bible about the outfit of the high priest, which is the most ornate, couture outfit you could think of, from the jewelry, the lace, the colors, the dying, the patterns, the gold trim, and the placement of the gems.”

In this never-before-seen collection of visceral, thought-provoking essays, readers will discover that faith and fashion aren’t necessarily two separate roads. Biblically, clothing had great importance; purple robes were reserved for royalty because the dye was so rare and costly to make. Spirituality has never taken such a practical turn before, framing the beauty of creation within the lens of the fashion industry.  

Tobi summarizes the book best with a single phrase: “The House of Faith and Fashion” ultimately pays homage to the first master couturier, which was G-d.”

 ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Tobi Rubinstein began her notable career in fashion after being brought into the industry by an exclusive manufacturer for Victoria’s Secret and JC Penney. Tobi then licensed with Nicole Miller for Childrenswear and helped develop Crunch Gym’s popular activewear line. In 2001, Rubinstein and her partners created “Chedda,” an innovative men’s urban clothing line designed for mass-market release at K-Mart.

In 2011, Tobi took a leap into reality TV and a successful lecture and radio series by creating The House of Faith and Fashion. Her goal was to consistently fuse creative outlets like fashion with spirituality. She made media appearances on WABC, WNBC, Lifetime, I24, Huffington Post, Page Six, and other outlets, having the opportunity to fashion icons like Patricia Fields and Badgley Mischka about their faith within their craft.

Tobi found further meaning by in-depth study of Jewish thought and teaching. This led to the combination of both her loves into one solid purpose — The House of Faith and Fashion: What My Wardrobe Taught Me About G-d.

Female Veteran and Entrepreneur Releases eBook for Service Members Transitioning to Business Owners

blank

(Fayetteville, N.C.) The journey from military service member to small business owner isn’t an easy one. No one knows that better than ShaDonna “Mo” McPhaul. McPhaul spent 20 years in loyal service to the United States Air Force before she made the transition to small business owner. In her new eBook, It’s Not What You Know, It’s the Mo’ You Know, McPhaul opens up about the lessons she learned while transforming her career and launching two successful businesses.

During her time as an active-duty service member, McPhaul gained expertise in Public Affairs, Administrative Support, Knowledge Operations Management, Command & Control, Human Resources & Logistics Management and Religion & Resiliency Support. After leaving the military, she wanted to put her expertise to work and soon started two companies, Mo’s Heroes and The Mo You Know. Now she wants to make her advice and life lessons available to even more people through her new eBook, which will help small businesses gain additional target audience exposure and introduce new audiences to their businesses.

“Unless you’ve made the transition from military to civilian life, you don’t really understand the struggles that it entails,” explained McPhaul. “I’ve learned a lot through transforming my career and building two businesses from the ground up. I knew it would be helpful to share my own experiences with other veterans going through the same thing, or really anyone going through a big transition in life. I wanted to point out some blind spots that they may or may not be aware of. It seems like a missed opportunity to not share that advice with others.”
