Don't Stop in the Middle of the Sidewalk! Comedian & Tour Guide LizaBanks Campagna
The ultimate NYC crossover episode. Natasha sits down with the hilarious LizaBanks Campagna, a comedian who makes a living doing the two hardest jobs in New York City: making people laugh, and successfully navigating tourists through Grand Central Terminal. LizaBanks' comedy is a masterclass in internet chaos and on-the-ground storytelling. When she’s not doing stand-up across the five boroughs (and the rest of the country), she’s the resident NYC Tour Guide for The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Grand Central. She’s been featured in The Cut and on the Today Show, which basically means she's officially certified to yell at you for standing in the bike lane.

How do you sell when the stakes are nine figures—and the best deals are never publicly listed? On this episode of Talking with Natasha, Natasha sits down with Peter Zaitzeff to break down the art of the pitch—and what truly separates elite closers from everyone else. With $4.8 BILLION in career sales and some of New York City’s most iconic deals to his name, Peter explains how influence works at the highest level—where precision, restraint, and timing matter more than hype. You may know him as the “Sexy Rabbit” from Netflix’s Owning Manhattan, but behind the on-screen charisma is a strategist who has mastered persuasion when the stakes are massive and the margin for error is zero. We also get into the state of NYC real estate post-Zohran Mamdani—how market psychology is shifting, what buyers are really reacting to, and how great salespeople adapt their pitch when the ground moves. This conversation goes beyond real estate. It’s about how to sell anything. Peter also opens up about purpose beyond profit—sharing how fatherhood inspired him to co-found The Kabuki Syndrome Foundation, helping raise over $5 million for groundbreaking medical research.
