In this episode of The JCast Journey, host Darone Ruskay talks about the crazy experience he had when the download numbers for the month of September dropped by forty percent. This was something to worry about until he remembered that this month has been the month of the Jewish High Holidays, and so obviously people didn’t have the same amount of time to listen to podcasts, especially Jewish ones.
This got host, Darone Ruskay, to think about the unhealthy role the dopamine hit of a like, or a retweet or a download can have and his feelings about taking away some of that power.

Darone has spent the past fifteen years working in the Jewish Education field, providing top-quality Jewish education to the North American community. he served as the Conference Coordinator for The Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE) for many years. Since then he has worked at United Jewish Communities (UJC), as their Director of Young Leadership Cabinet Membership, at The Jewish Theological Seminary (JTS), in the Department of Institutional Advancement, and most recently as the Managing Director of The Skirball Center for Adult Jewish Learning at Temple Emanu-El. He brings his passion for Jewish Life and Education, as well as his personal interest and passion for media and technology to this new venture, and is perfectly suited to lead the JCast Network (which he might just have to call JCN as he is so used to working at institutions that use their initials.)
