Kvetch

Christmas is over I said, move on I said, wait until next year I screamed, but nope, Darone could not wait another year before he complained about one aspect of being Jewish on Christmas.

What in the world could frustrate him soo much? You will have to listen to find out.

How do you listen to Kvetch and Kvell? You have a lot of options you know? iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, Stitcher, RSS, it’s your choice!

On Christmas Eve Day, it is no surprise that Darone would want to kvetch about school vacations, but this time, perhaps he has a point…

In this episode of The JCast Journey, host Darone Ruskay returns for his semi-annual request for support.

No, Darone isn’t about to kvetch about prayer in public schools, he has something to say about going to school to participate in family davening at his children’s Day School.

While his instincts are to kvetch about it, at his heart all he can do is kvell!

I don’t know what you think, but Darone has some strong feelings about what you call your Rabbi. Take a listen and hear why!

Let us know what you think by reaching out to us on Facebook at http://facebook.com/JCastNetwork.

See you in two weeks.

Before we start, let me be clear, Darone could easily do a Kvell about the amazing experience of taking his children to Orlando for a Disney vacation. It was an experience that he will never forget, but if you have been listening to Kvetch for the last 60+ episodes you know that Darone can always find some reason to Kvetch, and this week he has something to say about one specific, iconic Disney World experience. If the title of this episode hasn’t made it clear about what he has to talk about, then just take a listen and hear Darone Kvetch in his special way.

Darone loves the word phylacteries, but doesn’t wear them often. For those who don’t know, phylacteries is another word for tefillin. But wear them or not, what in the world would he have to kvetch about them? Take a listen to find out.

Also, if you could, please consider making a donation to JCast Network at our website.

Darone sure is frustrated this week. Why? Because of Columbus Day! Not because it should (or shouldn’t) be called Indigenous Peoples Day! Why then is Darone so spastic? Listen to today’s episode and you will understand why it is such a problem (or at least why he think it is).

In the days after the High Holidays, you can’t be too surprised that Darone would want to Kvetch about the length of religious services, but in an unusual swerve, Darone actually has more of a Kontemplate (you know the K is just to stay in the Kvetch and Kvell model) on the length of religious services, and what should or shouldn’t be done to change them.

Take a listen and let us know what you think.

Regardless of whether you spell it Hummus or Chumus or Chummus, there is no question that Hummus has taken over! And when something takes the world by storm, you know that Darone will find a reason to kvetch about it.
