Dick's Gadget Warehouse & How to Submit Your Viewer Video.
October 26, 2018 Post a Comment This week's viewer video arrived just in time for Halloween. It's very short, but the gadget is scary indeed!
Here's Scott's email:
Hey dick and chad here is my short and semi sweet gadget video
Scott M Northlake IL
There's a short video on the Home Depot page: (This page will probably disappear after Halloween.)
See or hear this episode: www.gizwiz.tv/episode/1698
+++++++++++++++++++++++
We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show, so 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 (favorite old, or favorite new): 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 earn a tiny amount of fame (hopefully). And if you live in the US, you'll also get an autographed 35-year-old Alfred E. Neuman picture and a MAD surprise (most likely the current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live, I canemail an autographed to you Alfred E. Neuman photo if we show your video. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it's a copy. We've tested it out and fans say they look terrific!

Letter of the week:
Subject: Upcycling from episode 1696
Hi Dick and Chad,
I just watched episode 1696 where you talked about upcycling. There are actually a bunch of companies doing this right now. I found one called Rareform at www.rareform.com that I ran across a few months ago. They also take old billboard vinyls and turn them into all sorts of bags and wallets. They have a huge selection of different types of backpacks, totes, wallets. I bought a billfold style wallet from them that I really like.
I also wanted to thank Chad for showing that Halloween doorbell gadget. I plan on taking my Ring doorbell down on Halloween because we tend to get a lot of kids coming by. (Last year it was around 120. I gave out 7 pounds of candy.) I don't want the ring going off all evening. I just ordered the eyeball doorbell and I'm going to put that up for the kids to ring.
As always, thanks for the show, Linda Norman (Linda from Long Island)
