In this episode, American expat videoblogger, BicycleMark, who is based in Amsterdam, pays a visit to Chris' place in Paris to talk to me about European reaction to the US elections, and the future of videoblogging.

Joe and I sat down today with former CNN Internet reporter Jacki Schechner and recorded our post-Super-Tuesday podcast. In this episode, we look at the fallout from Super Tuesday: who really won; who lost; what's next for the various candidates and the various caucuses and primaries; and finally what is up with this crazy "delegate" system and could so-called Superdelegates steal the election?

Joe and I just recorded a 25 minute podcast as a post-NH election update. In this episode, we look at increasing nastiness between Hillary and Obama; upcoming primaries in Michigan, South Carolina, Nevada and Florida; the ongoing turmoil in the Republican primaries; and a troubling election lawsuit in Nevada.

NOTE FROM JOHN: I'm bumping this post because it went up at the end of the day yesterday and some may have missed it. Joe gives a really good analysis of where things stand in the election, what to look for today in New Hampshire, and what today's results mean for the various campaigns. It's a podcast (basically a radio show), 20 minutes long, and you can listen to it on your computer by clicking the link below (assuming you have speakers or a headset).

Joe and I joined Internet reporter Jacki Schechner earlier today to discuss Obama's and Huckabee's victories in Iowa last night.

And Joe and I have just recorded a New Years Eve podcast looking at where the presidential nominations stand on the eve (almost eve) of the Iowa Caucuses (coming this Thursday). You can listen to our latest podcast simply by clicking this link (it's an mp3). This episode is around 30 minutes.

I finally get Joe to explain how the Iowa caucuses work in a way that even I could understand (actually, I still didn't totally understand it, it's pretty horrible). Also, we discuss the latest polls, Hillary's possible campaign shake-up, McCain's mini-surge, the Huckaboom, Ron Paul's fundraising, and my favorite wackadoo Cynthia McKinney is running for president! God, please let her in the general election debates. Couldn't you just see her throwing her cell phone at Romney? You can listen to the our latest podcast simply by clicking this link (it's an mp3).

AMERICAblog Paris correspondent Chris Ryan and his lovely French wife Joelle Planche visited AMERICAblog world headquarters this past weekend, so we did a little podcast about what Europeans are currently thinking about Americans, the elections, and more. You can listen to the podcast here. It actually ended up being quite fun, and funny, I think - I'm thinking I'm going to get Chris and Joelle online from Paris via skype to do more of these in the future. Oh, and for those still trying to figure out what a podcast is - it's simply an audio recording, like a radio show, that you can listen to on your computer. And if you're even more computer literate, you can have it downloaded to your iPod and listen to it on the way to work, while working out at the gym, etc. They're usually from 15 to 30 minutes long, so perfect for a commute or workout. I think you'll like this one.

Joe had a cocktail party yesterday for blogger Pam Spaulding, and who was there at the party, none other than David Phillips, one of the guys who says he slept with GOP Senator Larry Craig. I took the opportunity to interview David for a podcast. The podcast is occasionally explicit, due to the subject matter, and therefore not safe for work. You can listen it to here.

In episode 5 of our new podcast, Joe and I discuss: the latest polls and how they're showing increasing trouble for Hillary, even in South Carolina; Obama's rise in the polls and this weekend's Oprahpalooza on his behalf; Huckabee's implosion over the rape/murder scandal; Giuliani's use of city money to enable his extra-marital affairs (and then how he may have skirted the law by trying to hide it); and Pinocchio's, I mean Romney's, ongoing effort to be a real Christian.

I've decided, for now at least, to do a weekly election update on the podcast. Joe really is one of the smartest people I know when it comes to elections - he has a scary knowledge of polls and districts and facts about why a caucus isn't a primary, and more. So, each week, we're going to do a round up of where the elections stand and why. This week, Joe and I invited longtime Internet reporter Jacki Schechner (formerly of CNN) to join us. I think it turned into a really interesting discussion, and hope you agree (I also left the file in stereo mode this time, which I think adds a nice touch). You can listen to the broadcast via this link (just click and it should play the audio file on your computer), you can subscribe to our podcasts via iTunes here, or you can subscribe to our podcast RSS feed here. This show is about 26 minutes long, so perfect for the treadmill :-)
I've just published a new podcast episode and devoted this one to viewer mail. In this episode: why Hillary is popular and Kucinich isn't, why DiFi is such a pain and what you can do about it, whither impeachment, why the Dems don't care about privacy (and why they should), on being a former Republican, why Dems are so wimpy (sometimes), and all in haiku! (kidding)

PS I've been struggling with the album art on this one (the picture associated with our podcast in the iTunes store). I'd like something that plays-off of the logo from AMERICAblog 2.0, I'm attaching it below, but the logo for the iTunes store needs to be 300 pixels by 300 pixels (and this isn't). If anyone wants to take a shot at making me such a logo, using the logo below as inspiration, I'd appreciate it. No promises on what I'll use in the end, but if you want to give it a shot, I promise to check it out, thank you. (Obviously any draft iTunes logo you send me is a gift you're making to the blog for free, that we can use as we see fit for free, that you retain no rights in, blah blah etc. :-)
Okay, now that I'm teasing the new blog. My friend Ari said not to give away the new design till we're ready to launch, but I figured I could tease a little with this. This is the new color scheme, kind of a powder blue. I really like it. Oh, and the American flag comes back too, thank God.
At least that's what Joe thinks. I'm not so sure, but then again, Joe is the election expert. I've made his analysis the subject of our second AMERICAblog podcast. You can listen to it here, and you can subscribe to our podcasts either via iTunes here, or via Feedburner here.
Okay, I took the plunge. I've signed up with a podcast host service, Liberal Syndication, and produced my first podcast yesterday (my account got a bit goofed up, so I'm posting it today). You can find episode one here. I'm still trying to figure out how this service works, whether I can post something more than just a link here (can I embed the content in the post?), etc., but for now, you can go over, listen to the show (it's about 20 minutes), grab the RSS, etc. Also, I'm open to advice as to what to do next - do I need to register with podcast promo services, etc.? All pretty new to me, but was pretty fun, and not too hard to produce (and forgive the high pitched sound in the background, I think I was too close to my computer).
