Rebbetzin Rivka Leah Zelwig Goes Sukkah Hopping (With the Help of Siri) - Part 1 of 2


She's back. Yes, "Rebbetzin Rivka Leah Zelwig" aka actress and comedian Danielle Jacobs is back with a funny Sukkot episode. We've posted her funny Pesach preparation video and others on Purim and Chanukah in previous years.

This is part one of a two-part video. We'll post the second part later in the week.

In part one, she takes direction from her iPhone assistant, Suri, in finding the location of the sukkot on her sukkah hop.

In part two, the "Rebbetzin", speaking in a mock Yeshivish dialect, stumbles verbally and physically as she tries to show her daughter Chanele (never seen but presumably videotaping the shtick) the meaning of the decorations in a few sukkot that her iPhone assistant, Suri, leads her to.

The fact that she doesn't understand some of the decorations doesn't faze her as she finds a way to spin the meaning of a wall of mustached figures and other unconventional sukkah decorations.

 Stay tuned and enjoy!

  1. Sorry -- the first video was just not funny -- I bailed out after 90 seconds TWICE. There are lots of funny Jewish women, and Rebbetzin Rivka is not one. A good Yiddische voice even as done by non-MOTs Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy is better than a bad Yiddische voice done by an MOT. I'd prefer Sarah Silverman, Bette Midler, even Judge Judy. Rivka's voice is even more annoying and less realistic than Linda Richman's.
