Politics, YouTube, and how to skin a moose

I did a podcast yesterday with Jeff Powers, the force of nature behind Geekazine.com. We talked mostly about the YouTube effect on politics and the fact that we haven’t yet had a "Macaca" moment (but there’s still plenty of time), and also about Sarah Palin, Tina Fey, Hulu, and the new crop of amateur video satirists that YouTube has inspired.
You can find the podcast here. (I’d host it here, but I’m too lazy to deal with it, and I’m sure Jeff needs the traffic.) We recorded 30+ minutes of my blathering; I’m hoping he edited it to make me sound sane.
FYI, Powers says he meets all the qualifications for becoming president: he’s native born, over the age of 35, with no felony convictions. But he can’t skin a moose or see Russia from his backyard, so I guess that leaves him out.
I did not ask how he looks in a swim suit.
You never asked about skinning a Moose. Besides – it only leaves me out at being “Comical sidekick”.
Thanks again Dan for coming on the show. Yes, I did edit. You should see what I can make you say or favor… Kidding. Only took out the sea of UMMMMMMs I did.
