The podcast features Edwards discussing his work on poverty. Edwards also answers questions submitted to the One America Committee site. The topics discussed range from possible FEC proposals to regulate blogging, to drilling in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge, to how to increase the youth vote. It also features Elizabeth Edwards, who has been dealing with breast cancer. She's using her high profile to help to raise awareness of breast cancer issues. "As Democrats, it is essential that we use the most cutting edge tools at our disposal to fight for the causes near and dear to our hearts," said Edwards. "Podcasting is an amazing new medium that has given a voice -- literally -- to people all across America. That is why I am inviting people everywhere to visit my website, listen to this podcast, and subscribe to future podcasts." The podcast is surprisingly direct and personal. The show is recorded at the Edwards' home, and offers an intimite view into the mind of a prominent politician and his family. As Edwards describes in the podcast, "Elisabeth and I are both sitting here at our kitchen table. The microphones are sitting on my four-year old Jack's blanket that he sleeps with every night, so we feel very much at home, and I hope you enjoy this discussion!" John Edwards' podcast is available via the One America Committee site, and can be directly downloaded or subscribed to using a news feed (http://www.oneamericacommittee.com/podcast.xml). CommentsAmazing, just amazing. So refreshing to hear a politician in this candid fashion. Let's hope it does start a conversation with John Edwards, his wife, and an interested American community - and that the result is more podcasts from them. Mark my words, in about one week this podcast will be all the buzz around Washington and the MSM (main stream media). March 2005 will be rememberd as an inflection point in podcasting.
