< p>Google is teaming up with Vice President Joe Biden to host a video conversation with voters about gun control.

Described as a ’21st-century spin’ on President Roosevelt’s fireside radio chats, Google is hosting several “Google+ fireside hangout” events with top Obama administration officials.

The chat with Biden will be hosted tomorrow afternoon.

“During his 30-minute hangout, Vice President Biden will discuss the White House policy recommendations on reducing gun violence with participants,” read the official statement from Google.

The team will include Google+ users Guy Kawasaki and Phil DeFranco, while Hari Sreenivasan from PBS NewsHour will serve as a moderator.
