OMG! This is the 1st Giz Wiz Show OMGChad & I are producing on our own!

BIG CHANGE!

It's was time for the Giz Wiz Show (after 8+ years) to leave TWiT. Leo Laporte, founder of TWiT and co-host for most of those years, suggested OMGChad & I produce Giz Wiz ourselves on Patreon. And that's what we're doing. Hopefully you're a fan and will stay with us. The show numbering continues, and if you subscribed when we were on TWiT, you'll continue to receive the Giz wiz shows. But this time 'round, if you feel like supporting us and the show, you can visit

www.patreon.com/gizwiz. Thank you!

Our new podcast & chatroom home is www.gizwiz.tv  (Join us, please.)

And now on with the NEW, not-IMPROVED Giz Wiz Show!

It’s Spring which means it’s time for the annual "Time To Play Magazine Spring Showcase." It’s an event to give the press a first look at the hottest new toys, video games, baby products, and playthings people will be talking about this season. .....As you probably know, especially if you have kids, the 3rd Minion movie arrives June, 2015, so there's a lot of tie-in merchandise on the way. Some clever gadgets I saw at the TTPM Spring showcase are from Sky Rocket Toys. Its their Minion Safety Gear for kids, that include helmets, knee and elbow pads, even goggles. I think this is a great idea because kids will want to wear their Minion safety gear while biking, skating, etc. There’s even a fun piece of Minion equipment for peering under the water at the beach or pool. And there’s even a Minion Music and Sound Board. Prices range from about $10 to $25. These are shipping already and should be available at the big box stories and online at places like Amazon.
