2PP004 – April 8, 2009

Image EDITEpisode 4 continues our regular schedule of podcasting every other week (the next episode will be the week of April 20). After special news, we talk about President Obama’s trip to Europe. That leads to a wide-ranging discussion of international relations before we move on to talk about the auto industry. That leads to a concrete example of why it’s so important to the world that the US fixes its economy and gets credit flowing again. Comments on a variety of topics round out this episode. Back in 2 weeks!

AmeriNZ 151 – Third Season

It’s the start of my third year, but I need to clear up a few bits and pieces from last time. But first, I have a few news items that caught my eye, including some things from other Commonwealth countries. Then, it’s back to those bits and pieces needing tidying up.

AmeriNZ 150 – Two Years

amerinz_podcast_150x150Two years! Today’s episode would have had an audio file, similar to episode one, but it couldn’t happen. I talk briefly about that subject before moving onto the breaking news I alluded to last time (and Jake makes an appearance in the background). From there, it’s on to anniversarium comments and more comments. I actually received some as I was working on this episode, so I finish it after a few wines—good move or not? You be the judge. In any event, the number of messages I received kinda changed the way I did this episode, but I don’t mind at all. Thank you for two years of wonderful times. I deeply appreciate it!

Things I forgot!

AmeriNZ 149 – Penultimate Episode

amerinz_podcast_150x150It’s Thursday, so that makes this my penultimate episode, since tomorrow is my over-hyped Second Anniversary/150th episode. I begin today with some more updates, starting with a pretty big one. Did you know there was a reason I picked all the small topics this week? I get caught up on comments, too, which lets me expand on earlier topics.

Mentioned today:
Clark role puts her third in UN hierarchy.
Craig Horner photos.
Legend of the Seeker.

2PP003 – March 25, 2009

2PP_Album_art_smallEpisode 3 begins our regular schedule of podcasting every other week (more or less…). After special news, a special announcement: 2Political has it’s own US-based comment line. Then it’s on to AIG and the implications of that whole situation. We say that reform, regulation and oversight will all be necessary. We then move on to talking about the plans to buy “toxic assets” and what that can mean. Back in a couple weeks!

AmeriNZ 147 – End of the World

amerinz_podcast_150x150Today is the start of Anniversary Week! The AmeriNZ Podcast will be two years old at the end of the week, and to celebrate I’m planning to podcast every day this week (though Wednesday will be a 2Political episode). I talk today about some of the realities of living at “the end of the world” (from a US or European perspective). I also share what may be a sign of the other meaning of the phrase—the end of everything.
