Watching the State of the Union: What you need to know

The Best Way to Watch No matter your device, WhiteHouse.gov/SOTU is the place to watch President Obama's State of the Union this Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET. Stream the address, and follow along with exclusive graphics and charts showing what the announcements mean for you. Then, be sure to stick around after the speech for an exclusive live video Q&A.

#AskTheWH Join us the day after the State of the Union for an online, all-day open house: Ask questions across social media using #AskTheWH and follow along. We're calling it Big Block of Cheese Day, in honor of President Andrew Jackson's 1837 open house featuring a 1,400-pound block of cheese. (Read more about that here.)

A New Kind of Interview Finally, on Thursday, January 22, we're teaming up with YouTube for a special interview with President Obama. We're inviting top YouTubers here to the White House to interview the President -- but they're asking your questions. You won't want to miss this one.

We're pretty fired up. Make sure you join us Tuesday!
