Dick's Gadget Warehouse & How to Submit Your Viewer Video.

Our viewer video starts with this email:

Hi Dick and Chad,

Thanks for showing my video on the Toaster Tops. You mentioned that you really liked my toaster so I thought I’d make this video for you (https://youtu.be/SgHR7Vm0U6g) on the Breville BTA730XL. Just a small correction, the Frozen setting adds more heat to help defrost while the Bagel setting adds more heat to the inner heating elements so that the inside gets more toasted than the outside.

Chad was wondering how I even found the Toaster Top and the answer is that I was looking for a fabric cover for this toaster, but because of the unusual dimensions I never found one. I stumbled across the Toaster Tops website and saw their paper templates which I printed and then cut out to see if they would fit.

We’re looking for more Viewer Videos! We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show, so let’s go going! You’ll get an autographed copy of MAD Magazine and a 35-year-old Alfred E. Neuman picture if we show your video, and who knows, maybe you’ll be discovered by a YouTube Talent Agent! 

Here’s what we’re looking for: Your home shot video – 2 to 3 minutes long, in 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. No professional ads please.  

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 a new gadget you just bought too.   

Post them on YouTube and send us 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’ll a tiny amount of fame (hopefully), an autographed MAD magazine and a 35-year-old Alfred E. Neuman picture. So that's one more (so-so) reason to send in your video!  

All show submissions go to mail@gizwiz.tv. (NOTICE! This is a new email address!)

Letter of the week:

Hi Chad and Dick!

I just watched the episode (live) of the toaster top and y'all mentioned frying an egg on it and re-marketing. I hate to break the news to you, but an egg toaster is already a thing!

Perhaps it's a gadget you could feature in the future. 

Love the show! Misty Currier
