Episode Synopsis "JACCAST: PHILOSOPHY-2 Dr. Megan Fritts on academia, action, and 'communitarianism'."

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.
