Though the Jacksway Collective may have one of the most sporadic release schedules online, when there is a release, it's worth listening. Especially this one.
Jhana had the priveliege of sitting down to chat with Professor Scott Palmer from the University of Texas at Arlington. Professor Palmer is a scholar of Russian history, the history of aviation, the history of technology, and the history of video games. He's also a fascinating guy and a great conversationalist.
The conversation ranged from Russian History, Joseph Stalin, what it means to be "great" in the historical sense, great works of literature, online education, and much much more. If you are at all interested in history, this is the perfect episode for you.

Time for a spin off episode! This time, Jhana hops on the mic for a solo project that he's been brewing on for a few weeks now. What is it you might ask? Well, probably one of the most niche, "unappealing to many," things he could think of.
He's decided to read aloud, audiobook style, his favorite books on the mic, chapter by chapter and then have a discussion immediately after. Yes, you heard it right. Jhana is going to talk aloud alone on the mic, then read a chapter of a book, and then give his hot take immediately after. So, a total rip off of the "Let's" model, but with a book.

The Jacksway Collective is back!
After 8 months of hiatus, Jhana, Oliver, and Brendan hop back on the microphones to shake off the rust. The guys got together this week to talk about Digital Piracy. Since Brendan is a musician, we thought he'd offer an interesting perspective on the modern state of affairs when it comes to piracy.
Under what conditions is piracy more or less acceptable? Should you pirate the Lord of the Rings Director's Cut? Is Spotify merely a pretty platform facilitating piracy? These are a few of the questions that the guys debate in this episode.

The Jacksway Collective
How seriously should we care about what the author of a work intends for us to think about their work itself? Should we base our interpretations of art on the ability of the artists to "accurately portray" their own experience? Does knowing more about what an author set out to do further our enjoyment of a work?
These are the questions the gang juggle as they discuss Roland Barthes' famous essay, The Death of the Author. Thanks again to Ted for another awesome listener email spurring our discussion!
The Jacksway Collective managed to hold it together for some thoughtful discussion on individual creation and how we interpret works of art.

We're the Jacksway Collective
The Jacksway Collective is back after a minor hiatus! Brendan, Sarah, and Jhana sit down to talk about Zadie Smith's essay "Generation Why" in her book "Feel Free." Zadie Smith's essay examines the generational gaps between herself and Mark Zuckerberg. She asks questions about his motivations, critiques his ideas around "connection," and challenges our society's willingness to buy into these platforms.
The gang dives into their own Facebook habits, their experience with online advertising, and wraps it up with an EPIC monologue from Brendan on Justin Timberlake vs The Backstreet Boys, which you can not miss.

Sometimes, the best stories are hidden in plain sight. Underneath a modern soul, sample driven record by Mr. Jukes, aka Jack Steadman of Bombay Bicycle Club, is the tale of how clashing cultures can recover from conflict through art and expression. Join host Brendan Tuytel as he delves into history to illuminate how a new release came to be and how it has meaning as an emblem of an era.
This is an experimental audio essay separate from the regular Jacksway Collective podcast.

In this episode, The Jacksway Collective read Hilary Putnam's paper Brains in a Vat and experience a collective hallucination. Well, not exactly. They do, however, discuss epistemology and the implications of what would happen if it were revealed tomorrow we were all just brains in a vat. The gang also dives into their most embarassing author they have on thier shelves and how to deal with social interactions with clammy hands.

In this episode, Jhana and Oliver step into Daniel Orozco's absurdly dark story The Orientation. As fresh employees (readers), Jhana and Oliver stand by the water cooler and discuss things such as the dichotomy between work and personal life, our obsession for rigid processes in the modern workplace, and the formation of arbitrary rules within social circles.
It's the first recording of the year for The Jacksway Collective. We recorded remotely this time for convenience sake and the audio quality takes a slight hit. Bear with us because the next episode will be back to normal.

The Jacksway Collective
are back at it again with Jonathan Glazer’s “Under the Skin.”
In this science fiction meets art house film, listen in as the gang muddles through thick Scottish accents, the often obtuse, and the visually stunning. The episode asks questions such as what it means to be and become a human being, why we have the desire for our main character to move towards that goal, and what the most messed up scene of the film was. (There were many).
Happy New Year from all of us (and if you’re a fan of making resolutions, be sure to put listening to this podcast as one of them!)

Tolstoy is back in the Jacksway Collective's quest to find the story with the most possible suffering a human being can endure. Sarah, Brendan, Oliver, and Jhana dig into "God Sees the Truth, But Waits." During the episode they talk about holding on to one's faith and question whether or not truth ought to be the most fundamental virtue of our human experience.
The gang also reads their VERY FIRST LISTENER EMAIL. Ted from Vancouver asks us to clarify our views on blame, what it means to blame someone, and whether "brain states" are emancipatory in our evaluation of other people's deservingness of blame. Side note, Jhana wrote a longer blog response to this email below.

Things get truly grotesque on this week's episode on Lynne Ramsay's We Need to Talk About Kevin. The gang opens up with a discussion on gene editing and whether or not that applies to our potential psychopath babies (yes, a Hitler discussion arises...).
After the intro discussion, Sarah, Jhana, Oliver, and Brendan talk about Kevin, motherhood, moral responsibility, the colour red, and the presence of the male penis in modern film.

Listen in as our hosts wade through the supernatural, death, and insanity and find out how they manage to alienate twins and Bostonians alike.

The Jacksway Collective explore Ursula K. Le Guin's philosophical short story The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas.
Le Guin's story acts as a thought experiment asking the reader to imagine a perfectly content society and then turns it on its head once you find out that it's predicated on the endless suffering of a singular child. Can people live on in this society? Is this story an allegory for the west? How complicit are the people of Omelas in this story? These are the topics the guys cover in their discussion.
