Nothing goes together better than politics and the living dead, so plan to join the CraveCast crew live today at noon Pacific Time as we celebrate both Halloween and Election Day!

Kelsey Adams, Stephen Beacham, Bonnie Burton, Amanda Kooser and myself will take over the CNET studio to discuss the merits of forming a GNU political party for and by the nerds and geeks of the world. What would it stand for? Help us write our manifesto!

If you have a stronger interest in the zombie apocalypse then the democalypse, we'll also discuss the latest in zombie-proof real estate and answer the age-old question: Zombie vs. Bear -- who wins?

You can watch the broadcast right from the embedded video on this page below. Or watch on Xbox Live or on our YouTube Channel.

Send your questions and comments for the show now via Twitter to @Crave and @EricCMack or chat with us live during the show. And...go bears!
