AmeriNZ 166 – Into the breach

amerinz_podcast_150x150It’s the 40th anniversary of the moonlanding! I start by talking a bit about that. Then, it’s clearing up a few things about Pride 48: I’ll be doing more live shows, some like the three recent ones, but also maybe group discussions of particular topics. What do you think? Then it’s on to comments, which have kind of piled up. I have brand-new theme music for phone comments! Why not call the line so I can play it again?

AmeriNZ 165 – AmeriNZ LIVE

amerinz_podcast_150x150This is a LONG episode! It’s the recorded version of a live show Nigel and I did on the Pride 48 Stream on Saturday afternoon, which was Friday evening in North America. We thought more people would be able to take part than last time, and we were right! This is a show about nothing, just a chat among a variety of folks—not all of them podcasters.

If we do this again, they’ll either be shorter or I’ll split them, but this time I didn’t plan for that. There are a few other minor details to perfect, too—like content, for example. Seriously, it was all just a bit of fun, and completely different from the regular podcast. It’s nice to take a break sometimes.

Also on this episode:

Daniel Brewer of Dubious Intent podcast.
Nessa of Stars & Tartan podcast.
David from That Blue Jeans Guy podcast.
Wes Stone of the Live it up! podcast.
Steven from Wisconsin also joins us.

AmeriNZ 164 – Normal Again

amerinz_podcast_150x150I have some general updates today, including a Pride 48 wrap-up, but I begin with my main topic, work visas for New Zealand and how the recession is affecting people who have them. A special feature today as an homage to the Pride 48 Aftershow—hours condensed to a 1:35 sampling.

2PP010 – 1 July 2009

2PP_Album_art_smallIt’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

Feel free to visit our website, 2political.com, where, you can leave a comment, get the comment line number or our email addresses for the podcast. 2Political episodes will continue to be available through AmeriNZ Podcast for quite awhile, or you can subscribe directly through iTunes (link below).

AmeriNZ 163 – Pride 48 Sunday

pride48_125x125Nigel 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. LurryDean joins us, too.

Plans are to repeat this not just next year, but also in 6 months or so. In the meantime, several podcasters are going to continue doing live shows, and this podcast may be one of them. I’ll let you know in advance if that happens.

AmeriNZ 159 – Recovering

amerinz_podcast_150x150I’m podcasting today despite my cold; I’m a giver. Today, I start by talking about swine flu, which is now a very big deal in Australia. Then, I update the story about the alleged “HIV predator”. That lets me mention a couple things about legal stuff in New Zealand. Finally, New Zealand has been ranked the most peaceful nation in the world. A comment, and I’m done.
