Multi-platinum musician Jason Mraz launches debut podcast with Gcast

The Mrazcast has launched on Gcast, and if the first episode is any indication, Mraz has a promising future in podcasting. Following the amicable departure of his band's lead guitarist Bill Bell, Mraz began auditioning replacements. In his first podcast, entitled "Show Me Your Licks", he presents illuminating and often hysterical one-on-one accounts of meeting and jamming with four prospective guitar players. Besides being chock-full of great music, Mraz delivers on-point psychoanalysis of each musician in a constant voice-over narrative. The 'cast is capped off with an endearing interview with departing guitarist Bell as he relaxes in Mraz's pool. It's an entertaining half hour even if you're not already familiar with Mraz's unique sound.
