This was the second launch event that he attended, the first, last years event he attended right after he concieved of JCast Network. In this episode, he talks about the difference a year makes, the question of how many innovative ideas can really be viable, and a Youtube video he just watched of Aaron Bisman (founder of JDub) talking about the successes and failures of an innovative project in the Jewish community.
