how would i go about recording with is being viewed on my monitor (games, or just whatever) and are there any freewares that do this? and please don't say video camera because that just doesn't look as good.

Penny Arcade and PvP have been using Ustream (Penny Arcade example http://www.ustream.tv/channel/penny-arcade-tv), not sure about the cost, if any, but worth a look.

EDIT: Gabe loves to listen to They Might Be Giants as he draws, and I love me some TMBG!!!

EDIT2: Penny Arcade has been known to put non-PG-13 language into their webcomics, so if you follow the link and wait the hour or so before he puts in the text consider yourself forewarned.

I just did a quick search and found CamStudio. It's a free program for recording monitor things. Not sure if it records games.

@Jack,
Camstudio is a Screen-Capture software which records videos with a low quality when its set to default video codec. thats why i dont use it. but you could use "Camtasia Studio" which is the best video screen recording software in the internet... you could download the 30-day trial.
