Mochers Magazine
« on: January 27, 2021, 02:22:46 PM »
I'm surprised this hasn't been posted till now. When I first saw the pics going all over whatsapp I thought it was a joke but, it turns out this is real.

What the what?!

https://www.mochers.com/

I just got this email: https://mailchi.mp/330dee133e9b/mochers-magazine-the-jewish-mens-lifestyle-magazine-8808284

If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Funny name for a magazine, I first read it as moochers. If they mean machers, then use an a. Or do they mean mocher like a seller, and it’s targeted towards every other Frum guy who “does amazon” (the new “in real estate”).

ETA: Please tell me this is a joke, I don’t want to be accused of eating the onion yet again :D

It’s gonna flop either way, not much of a market. People who want their worldly fix won’t be hiding this under their pillow...

It's definitely a joke, but just judging by the website, email promo, etc. it appears the joke was unintentional rather than being satire.

"Our features and articles are advanced and knowledgeable and a luscious experience" (emphasis added).
That sounds intentionally silly to me.

(https://whois.domaintools.com/mochers.com and https://lookup.icann.org/lookup
seem to offer very little information beyond "Created on 2018-12-10" and that the
party that it's registered to is based in NY.)
Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)

Yeah, DansDeals has real trouble getting the word out on stuff.

If they were a bit more subtle it could be pretty convincing...,

It's just truly something that's not believable. Literally, I see it with my eyes and I'm pretty sure I'm awake and not dreaming but my brain still can't process this as reality. Every time I see this I have the same astounded reaction. I say again:

What the what?!

Looks like they have some other 'brands' though none seem active as far as I can tell

While the image and title aren't linked to anything, that podcast does exist (I haven't listened to it).
