2PP009 – 17 June 2009

2PP_Album_art_smallJason’s special days are just fun ones today—nothing too serious, which is good, because we start today with a real nutcase and I follow that with something from another. This leads to a discussion of extremists, both on the left and the right. How does extremism relate to terrorism? One of the extremist groups we talk about is in trouble in Australia. We also talk about the influence of the right wing media. There’s also some New Zealand political news this week!

After the discussion, we have comments on our previous episode. That raises topics we discuss. Finally, Arthur provides an update on swine flu in New Zealand.

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.

2PP008 – 05 June 2009

2PP_Album_art_smallAs always, we begin with Jason’s special days, but today we have a VERY special day! From there, it’s a discussion of the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor. What do we think about the Supreme Court make-up? Arthur watched Faux News, and that relates to the president’s trip to the Mideast. Arthur corrects Faux News, which is easy to do. Arthur has a special adventure to share, one that relates to our previous episode.

After the discussion, we have comments on our previous episode. That raises topics we discuss. Join the discussion!

amerinz_podcast_150x150This is my last podcast for May, and we’re about to have a holiday weekend—(Every) Queen’s Birthday. Today I start by telling you about some NZ news, including the arrest of an alleged “HIV predator”. The Prop 8 decision has had some reaction in this part of the world, where the debate is different. Today I also share my feeling on how we move forward.

AmeriNZ 157 – Jury’s Out

amerinz_podcast_150x150I’m optimistic about today’s episode. It begins with some news—both mine and New Zealand’s. The talk of jury service last time generated a few comments, so I researched it a little more and today I tell you more about jury service in New Zealand. Finally, I have a few updates, including one related to Pride 48.

2PP007 – 19 May 2009

2PP_Album_art_smallWe begin with Jason’s special days, but today’s episode is mostly a discussion with our first guest, Peter (aka epilonious). We look at civility on the Internet, the origins and implications of the lack of civility. It’s a wide-ranging discussion, and other political issues come up, too, including how to deal with religious arguments. We wrap up with our advice and strategies for avoiding “uncivility wars” on the Internet.

After the discussion, we have comments on our previous episode. That raises topics we discuss. Join the discussion!
