I’ve mentioned Mickey Kaus and Robert Wright’s bloggingheads.tv in the past, but it’s time for a reminder.
If you enjoy reading this blog, or, for that matter, any blog, you should be watching this show. Kaus and Wright are two of the sharper knives in the drawer of Internet punditry, and through their dialogues bring out the best in each other. Both are passionate, but neither is particularly partisan, and it is extraordinarily refreshing to listen to two smart guys simply trying to parse through the latest events and make some sense of them.
And yes, the technology actually is impressive. Even though I’ve watched every single episode they’ve produced thus far, I only just realized last night that they are streaming at 300kbps — which means you can watch the video full-screen on your monitor and it appears almost as clear as a normal TV broadcast.
Anyway, I’m a big fan, so I’m going to keep talking about them until y’all give them the audience they deserve. So save me some posts and just go watch…
