Dick's Gadget Warehouse: Another viewer's video and how to submit yours!
December 2, 2013 Post a Comment 
Dick and Leo (and Jason),
After Leo mentioned the old TV set he had as a kid, I realized I should send this in for a viewer video. I found this TV at an antiques market, and saw many possibilities.
Overall this project cost me a little over $100 but the cool factor is totally worth it.
Peace, Ryan Price
We'd love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show.
Here's what we're looking for: Your home made Videos -- two to three minutes long - in the any of the following categories:
I bought a piece of crap! Did you buy something you ended up hating? We won't get you a refund, but we might be able to give a platform to vent your disappointment. Remember, "family friendly" language applies.
I Invented This! Did you invent something? (Or did a friend or relative invent something.) We can't market it for you, but we can help get the word out. Show us what it is, and how it works. Even if it's a prototype, you can get our (and the audience) reactions.
My Gadget Warehouse! Okay, so you don't have a warehouse. It doesn't matter. Just tell us about your favorite old gadget(s). When and where you bought it, and why you're still hanging on to it.
My favorite gadget of all time! Show us what it is, tell us what it does and why you love, or loved it! It can be something you just bought too.
Post them on YouTube and send our producer, Jason, the link! We'll do the rest. (Or possibly nothing, but that's unlikely.) Remember, videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long! Low production value is fine, but we should be able to hear you and see you!
If we select and show your video on The Giz Wiz you will now be awarded with some sort of prize. Like an autographed MAD and some piece of crap. So that's one more (so-so) reason to send in your video!
All show submissions go to gizwiz@twit.tv

Just thought you may find this interesting. If you and Leo could review it even better but not worries if you can't find it or work it in to the show. Still found it interesting.
