Jewanced Podcast-Shakked Beery – The Underdogs’ Assembly

Once, there was a speaker who gave talks about Israel to tour groups who came to visit it. Once there was a tour operator who brought tour groups to Israel. Once there was a tour guide who guided tours in Israel. Then COVID-19 hit, and flipped their lives over. They all still wanted to bring Israel and Judaism to people around the world. How can they do it? Did they manage to survive the crisis?

Well, the speaker Dan Feferman and the tour operator Benny Scholder, used their skills to start a ‘Joe Rogan’ format podcast by the name Jewanced, taking deep dives into Jewish and Israeli topics. The podcast turned out to be a great success and they are now reaching over 135 countries worldwide! Who knew Jews are so interesting?? Ok, they kind of are and I kind of knew, but still .

The tour guide, however, packed her bags and left for the US, determined to keep speaking about Israel no matter what. She road-tripped and gave talks for a while, and wondered how can she bring Israel to even more people? Suddenly, it dawned on her. She settled for a few months in a rach in middle-of-nowhere Nebraska and wrote her first book: SECRET ISRAEL – The Israel That Most Visitors Miss.

In the current social and political climate, the devoted professionals of the Israeli Tourism Industry became the underdogs. It often feels like the system is rigged against us, even if it isn’t deliberate. We went through a lot and it isn’t over yet, but still, in the midst of hardship, creativity can be found and passion finds its way. People like Dan & Benny and their podcast are a perfect example for what I find most inspiring in these crazy times. Sometimes the light finds a way in through windows you never imagined are there.

Now a question: what’s the connection between the first Bahraini delegation to Israel, current Antisemitism, the crisis in the Israeli tourism industry, and Jewish pirates?

Well, I recently had the great honor to be a guest on the Jewanced podcast, with Dan (who’s the person behind the Bahraini delegation to Israel!) and Benny, and our conversation covered ALL of these topics, and much more. We took deep leaps into fascinating stories and had A LOT of fun on the way.

Dan & Benny are fascinating to listen to, and I feel like they managed to bring out the best of me. We also covered much about the book, so if you want to take an audio tour in the stories of SECRET ISRAEL, this is an excellent way to do so.

You can listen through Spotify or on any podcast platform.

One last thing: we in the tourism industry are all going through a challenging time here. If you find it in your heart, please consider supporting Jewanced and help devoted Israel-thinkers to keep pursuing their trade: https://jewanced.com/donate/
