9 to 5

9 to 5 is an innovative documentary-style show produced by WJCT Productions. The concept is to expose the audience to various occupations and to uncover what truly lies behind one’s job title. 9 to 5 attempts to dispel the myths and misconceptions, inquire about the decisions made and the paths taken and ask if and/or how their particular job has changed them or their view of the world.

First Coast Forum

A quarterly series of interactive community forums designed to address critical challenges facing Florida’s First Coast and to engage the community in resolving them. Each program brings First Coast business and community leaders together for discussion, and gives community members an opportunity to weigh in. Launched in July 2001, the quarterly forums broadcast live on TV and radio.

Next First Coast Forum

Airs: Thursday, May 17 at 8pm on WJCT-TV and 89.9 WJCT Public Radio!

As fuel prices continue their inexorable rise, the next First Coast Forum will tackle the issue of transportation and transit in the age of four-dollar a gallon gasoline. Jacksonville Transportation Authority Chairman Ed Burr says the agency will be looking at mass transit as an important part of its mission in the future. But what might that entail? What options are available to move people around the county more efficiently? What mass transit ideas is the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization considering?

As the JTA searches for its next chief executive officer, what opportunities are there to re-evaluate and re-focus its mission?

The city has also frequently been cited as one of the least pedestrian and bicycle-friendly in the nation. Bike advocates want an expansion of bikeways and recognition of bikes as a legitimate transportation alternative. But relations between motorists and bicyclists have oftentimes been acrimonious.

We'll also look at the question of whether sprawl can be effectively curbed so that future development will be more pedestrian-friendly.
