This episode is presented as streamed out over the Internet—in other words, not edited. For this very special LIVE episode of AmeriNZ, I’m joined by Daniel and TurnipHed. We take advantage of the opportunity to give an update on the Pride 48 DVD. Daniel is anal about audio—like we didn’t know.
We start by talking about the Proposition 8 ruling. Then we talk about marriage equality v. civil unions. We talk a lot about marriage—what it is and can be. Yeah, Glenn Beck is mentioned. Healthcare creeps into the discussion, and then lots of other stuff about American politics, and Daniel makes lots of good points, TurnipHed makes good points about Canada and Arthur mentions New Zealand: Yeah, you’ll have to listen to get the details.
Thanks to Honey of My Honey Wears Plaid for letting me borrow his time slot (I tried to put the furniture back and vacuum afterwards—sorry about the water stains on the tables).
Be sure to listen to Nigel LIVE on The Third Colony Saturday, 9-11pm Eastern (in the Americas, 1pm Sunday in New Zealand) on qnation.fm. Go to their website for how to listen, or to join the chatroom. The Trivia Game is back!!

This episode was recorded live on Pride 48, the 48-hour podcasting marathon, on Saturday, June 26, 2010. Joining me were Nigel, Daniel Brewer and Scotty, the Little Aussie Battler. This is episode is different from my others, and not just because it’s live or 90 minutes long.
I start out today talking about Pride 48, the 48-hour live podcasting marathon. It begins with a kick-off show at 8pm Eastern on Friday, June 25 in the Americas (9pm Saturday, June 26 in New Zealand) and ends 48 hours later. As host of Pride 48 for 2010, I’ll be on the kick-off show and the wrap-up show. My own live show is 5:30am-7am June 26 Eastern time in the Americas (9:30pm to 11pm New Zealand time). I’ll record that show and post it the following week.
I have both New Zealand updates AND a short topic today. Not only that, it’s my second podcast this week! I can’t remember the last time I did that. After NZ news (including an update), it’s on to today’s short topic: There are some unusual things I miss about the US, and today’s show art shows one (thanks for the photo, Lord Byron of Illinois!). I talk about that and a few other random things—not the sort of things that most people think about. Comments let me further comment on an earlier topic.
