I got my BA in politics and MA in political theory and philosophy from New York University.

Yesterday afternoon at PDF2008 Davar Iran Ardalan, Senior Supervisory Producer at Weekend Edition Sunday, and I sat down with Huffington Post founder Arianna Huffington, MySpace IMPACT Director Lee Brenner and blogger Matt Stoller of OpenLeft.com for a 10-minute conversation about how what they do is literally changing politics as we know it — and maybe public radio too.

NPR’s very own Andy Carvin makes a cameo appearance too. He streamed our entire chat live with his Qik cam so here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the behind-the-scenes interview. The high-quality version will be posted to NPR Sunday Soapbox later this morning. Many more interviews to come there from PDF2008 in the weeks ahead.
