It's the Social Media Camp podcast cross-over episode. Look for this episode on John, Paul and Mic, and the Social Media Camp podcast. Crazy, huh?
Paul talks to two folks who know a thing or two about politics and social media. One is current journalist, communications consultant, and former communications and campaign manager for British Columbia MLA Mary Polak, Todd Hauptman. The other is communications consultant and former social media coordinator for the British Columbia Liberal Party during the last provincial election, Allie Valiente.
How does social media fit into the context of a modern political campaign? What are the opportunities, and what are the pitfalls? Who should and should not incorporate social media heavily into their campaign strategy.
We discuss this and more in this special episode.
Todd and Allie will be joining former JPM guests Andrew Reeve, Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps on a special Politics and Social Media panel at Social Media Camp 2015 on May 21st to 23rd, 2015 in Victoria, moderated by UVic political science professor Janni Aragon.

Oh, and here's the link to the video Paul thought was so funny...
