AmeriNZ 227 – Still Winter

amerinz_podcast_150x150It’s Maori Language Week, but I’ve talked about that twice (see links), so I’m taking this year off. I start today talking about our weekend, which I don’t do all that often. In the news, the government is changing the alcohol limits for those caught drink-driving. I meander through news and history before moving on to comments, where I meander through news and history—um, yeah.

Be sure to listen to Nigel on The Third Colony Saturday, 9-11pm Eastern (in the Americas) on qnation.fm. Go to their website for how to listen, or to join the chatroom.

Today’s closing music is “Crowing” by Glen Phillips.

AmeriNZ 226 – Claws

amerinz_podcast_150x150I recorded this on Wednesday and I thought I had some things to edit. Time passed. I thought I’d just re-record, then I listened again and thought, “what the hell?”. So, here—a few days later—is that episode.

I begin with a cautionary tale about language. Then, it’s on to New Zealand politics and my “analysis” of what’s going on. A Bella Report continues today’s theme before we head to comments, audio and written. Thank you all!!

Today’s closing music is “Run to the Music” by Degrees.

AmeriNZ 225 – Busy day talk

I am busy, but with ordinary life this time. Still, I take time to talk with you. First up, I talk a bit about Creative Commons licensing, and how that sort of thing is the future. From there, it’s a talk of the massive fee increases that US citizens living in New Zealand have to deal with. I once praised the US embassy in NZ, but it’s not so great after all. Don’t forget Nigel’s show on Saturday (Americas)!

AmeriNZ 224 – Onward

amerinz_podcast_150x150Busy again (some things don’t change). There’s been a lot going on, starting with Pride 48 and work, too. I also tell you about Nigel’s new show. An odd story in the news caught my eye. I have lots of comments that let me talk about other things. I may only have one episode next week, too.
