Visit Rage Room Philly To Take Out All Your Frustrations
Feeling frustrated like you want to smash a computer? Well, Philadelphia now has a rage room where you can take out all of your frustrations. Rage Philly, the City of Brotherly Love’s only rage room, where people suit up in protective gear and unleash their rage on old furniture, dishware, and children’s toys using metal bats, crowbars, and sledgehammers.
Rage Philly is run by Kea Tull and her daughter 20-year-old Nyerera Jordan. Together, they ensure that clients who participate in the obliteration of statuettes, plasma screens, playsets, and pasta strainers don’t get hurt as they smash away — and also keep customers working hard with enthusiastic exhortations to “turn it into crumbs!”
Rage Philly gives you disposable coveralls, hardhats, mesh face masks, protective vests, goggles, and lightweight work gloves to wear before you start breaking stuff. If you check out their Facebook page, you can see that there are groups of friends who go for fun, companies go for holiday parties, and even Sweet 16s are celebrated there.
“Rage rooms aren’t places where you’re going to sit down on the couch, talk about your feelings, and then be given a plate to throw — it’s not that,” said Jordan. “It can be a therapeutic experience, but we’re not licensed therapists.”
The fact that it’s owned by local Philadelphia residents who happen to be a mother and daughter makes it even more special.
“It’s a good place to allow folks to get out lots of things [built up], especially coming out of the pandemic,” said Green. “Also, we’re really excited to be able to support Black women entrepreneurs.”
Check out the info below for all the details and how to book a session. The holidays are coming up so you might need stress relief or give it as a gift. Ha!

Pennsylvania Has One of the Best Places for Apple Cider in America
Apple cider season is here. There’s just something special about having apple cider in the fall. You can have it any season, but it just tastes better in the fall. What’s more, if it’s chilly out, it’s extra delicious to have hot apple cider with a dash of cinnamon. Well, we’re lucky, because Pennsylvania has one of the best places for Apple Cider in America.
Before we get to today’s apple cider, let’s look at some of the interesting history of apple cider. According to Washington State University, the very “first recorded references to cider date back to Roman times,” and, “in 55 BCE Julius Caesar found the Celtic Britons fermenting cider from native crabapples. The people of northern Spain were making sidra before the birth of Christ.” That’s so wild to think about.
Moreover, according to SmithsonianMag.com, “Evidence of apple trees growing along the banks to the Nile River can be found dating back to about 1300 B.C., but there’s no evidence that ancient Egyptians ever used them for cider. However, considering how much the Egyptians enjoyed beer (and that they were one of the first cultures to brew it), they did have some notion of the joys of fermenting alcoholic beverages.”
In other words, apple cider dates back a long, long time. In fact, apples are as old as time, really. Remember the Biblical story where Eve at the apple? There you have it. Even though apples are very ancient, the way that we eat them today is not. There are so many different ways to enjoy apples and apple cider in the fall. With that in mind, let’s get into the best apple cider in the U.S. What’s your favorite spot to get local apple cider? Reach out to us on social media and give us your picks.
