How to Be a New Yorker

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Apr 2

There's no easy answer to the question of how to successfully be a New Yorker, but New York Magazine is launching a new newsletter to try and make navigating city life easier. "How to Be a New Yorker" offers tips on how to do very specific things in New York, like how to throw a party, where to get a haircut, how to exercise without going broke, how to catch the best concerts, and more. Features editor Julia Edelstein discusses what you can learn in the newsletter and listeners share their advice on how to be a better New Yorker.
