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

Our email of the week comes from Eugene Street, a fan who has been watching the Giz Wiz for many years, even back to the early Leo/TWiT days.

Eugene is a trucker, and in his video of the week, he tells and shows us one of his favorite gadgets.

Eugene said he hope this video works for the show, and it does. Thanks for submitting it. If you live in the US, you get the current MAD magazine & one of those 38+ year old Alfred E. Neuman photos. 

 

It's here on Amazon: (Under $30 as of 7/26/82 & 4.5 out of 5 starts from over 1600 reviews!

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!

All show submissions go to mail@gizwiz.tv

Letter of the week:

 

Hey Dickie and Chad, I mentioned on the show that I got 2 TB Flash drives for 5 bucks each. I went on the WISH app and they went up to 13 dollars. Also if you notice, there are external Hard Drives for 10-20 Terabytes and the prices are like wow. I do have to say, some are misleading on the app, like the one for 50 TB is for a case and not a drive. I bought the little gold & silver ones. Some people in chat thought maybe I was stretching the truth when I said 2TB for 5 bucks. You have to wait 6-8 weeks for delivery because it's shipped from China.
Ok, this is part where I say "Really love the show, keep up good work"

From the Giz Wiz. I went to Wish.com and was asked to sign up & give some personal info, gender, birthday, etc. before you I would be allowed to enter the site. I decided not to sign up, but Chad might. We'll find out next week if he did.
