Dick's Gadget Warehouse & How to Submit Your Viewer Video On Any Gadget!

This week our viewer video is about another “As Seen On TV” gadget – one that --- actually works.

Hi Dick and Chad,

This is a video for a kitchen gadget that I received for Christmas that I almost donated. I tried it and it works much better than expected!

Since you guys have tried so many crappy kitchen gadgets, I thought you would like to see one that actually works.

********************************

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:

From: Steve C Subject: Hotlogic

I one of those Hotlogic type devices cheap at Goodwill and it took me a while to figure out what it does but it cooks quite well. It works with frozen dinners just fine, put one into it in the morning and it will be ready by noon since the thing gets pretty hot. I wouldn't power it from an inverter in the car though unless I was driving somewhere too so it wouldn't run down the battery. Best to plug it into AC at home, work or school.

And letter number two on the same subject:

From: Douglas Ferguson Subject: Cooking on a car (engine.)

Hey Dick and Chad,

I heard your discussion about keeping food hot by putting on a car engine. Well, the Mythbusters, with guest Alton Brown cooked a whole Thanksgiving dinner on a car (engine).
