i managed to record a little three minute video at the home of jason and his family recently.  it was pretty rushed but i think the video is a good introduction to people about the buddhist podcast from a video perspective and this will be the first video that we will use for distribution over video sites to raise more awareness of the podcast.  

i hope you like it and would love your feedback.  would you like to see more video content, maybe interviews?
