This is just a nattercast today, since I won’t have time tomorrow. I start with some updates (this IS a personal journal podcast!) and go on to other bits and pieces. It’s another cornucopia today! I have a little bit of a downer toward the end, but my reason for bringing it up is positive.

I begin with some breaking news, then onto something from the NZ news. After that, the main topic: Visiting New Zealand. I share a few tips and tricks and resources. Comments and then that’s it for this week.
It’s out tenth 2Political episode! Jason’s special days begin the show, and Arthur follows that with a Pride 48 recap. We talk about Republicans’ problems with malfunctioning zippers. Minnesota finally has two senators! Talk of a “super majority” for Senate Democrats is over-blown. We then talk about a Republican nut in Maryland and other nutty Republicans—as well as hyperbole in political debate. Where is the US’ opposition party? The Supreme Court also gets a look. Finally, we have comments on our previous episode. That raises topics we discuss
Nigel and I did ANOTHER live show on Pride 48 Sunday night, and this is the recording of that show. It’s a different kind of podcast—again—and we had a lot of fun.
