JACCAST is a cast about... well... Jac. Namely, the ideas that Jac is interested in as seen and expressed by the people Jac is friends with. Jac is a student at a university in the West, studying philosophy. However, philosophy is not his only interest: he is also interested in the arts; primarily design and film but also broadly appreciative of music and literature. He is also interested in technology. In the CCASTS about these topics, Jac talks to his friends and examines what these ideas mean for people in an effort to cause more dialogue between his personal community

JACCAST: PHILOSOPHY-2 Dr. Megan Fritts on academia, action, and 'communitarianism'.
In this CCAST Jac talks with a professor of philosophy, Dr. Megan Fritts, about why she is in academia, about some of her philosophical positions, and discusses the idea of 'communitarianism', a social philosophy that, as it sounds, emphasizes the community. Some of the inquiries brought up briefly include: technology ethics and how the internet has harmed us, the role of community and our view of 'the good' in the social sphere, and how exactly human action is possible.

JACCAST: TECH-1 what makes technology exciting? and other tech questions answered by Jose
The CCAST about technology opens with a discussion with one friend who always seems to be on top of the tech scene, Jose. Jose is a friend of mine who shoots and edits great photo and video. He and I met in high school digital media classes, and like me, he also tries to keep up with all sorts of types of technology. This CCAST focuses on his thoughts about the current smartphone market, as well as inquires into why he gets excited about technology and if modern technology and smartphones are a good thing or not.
