This is a short episode just about the aftermath of the US election, well, as it affected me. I have two voicemails that kind of nicely bookend the whole thing, too. This is not really about politics, by the way.
Next episode is inspired by another voicemail. Feel free to call or write me with questions or suggestions (just let me know if you don’t want it played/read on the show).

Today’s episode is all about catching up on a some of what I’ve been up to. I share a weird encounter with YouTube. I also have some updates about the Marriage Equality Bill. Then, I turn to some talk about Pride 48 and podcasting in general, introduced by a clip from Auntie Vera Charles. A voicemail lets me expand on a topic, and then I’m done for today.

So, then, this happened today: I voted.
Today’s episode is a bit of this, a bit of that. I start with an example of a problematic Kiwi accent, then after passing the pending marriage equality bill, I move on to a few stories in the NZ news that caught my eye. Finally, it’s an update on what’s going on here before the real finally, comments. Join us on Pride 48 this weekend!

I begin today with updates about what I’ve been up to, followed by talk about this year’s Pride 48 event (September 14-16). I move on to updates about things in the New Zealand news, including marriage equality. A phone message allows me to talk about another topic.

Some excellent news today—marriage equality in New Zealand is one step closer, so I talk about that first. In fact, it’s the whole reason I did a podcast today. I remembered a couple other updates (which is pretty excellent for me), and Jake, who was doing poorly last week is doing very well. Excellent. Finally, a comment let’s me say why I’ve used a one-word title for this episode, too. Excellent.

This is just an update podcast: Today and this week are both better, and even the weather got better. Yep, had some good developments this week—and one not so good one that still turned out okay. Once again, comments let me expand on topics. There’s even an easter egg this episode.

It’s been cold in Auckland this week. Last week was my busy week—with a twist. I’ll be part of a new podcast, but it doesn’t have a name. Leave your suggestion in the comments or ring the comment line. I also talk a bit about Pride 48. Congratulations to Ramble Redhead for 500 episodes! After that, I talk about a blog project I’ve been taking part in called ABC Wednesday. A comment lets me talk a bit about the upcoming New Zealand Census.

We’ve been cold and had colds—not fun. But today I begin with a little update on what we’ve been up to, including some technological stuff (yeah, it surprises me, too). I move on to phone messages that allow me to comment further. Then to wrap up this episode, I pay tribute to my friend, known on this podcast as Lord Byron of Illinois, who died June 10. I talk a bit, too, about online friendships being real friendships—because I think they are. And that includes all of you who I know only through this podcast, by the way.
