BEST COMEDY !!!

Congratulations to Dick and Leo, who won in the Podcast Awards Best Comedy category (announced on Saturday night, 12 December). TWiT won in Video, Munchcast in Food, and Security Now in Technology. Read what Dick has to say on his website. Here is the video of the announcement, Dick’s acceptance speech and Leo’s appearance, as streamed on Ustream (about 7 minutes into the video). By the way, Dick forgot the “Winning is everything” acceptance speech.

Christmas Hat, Stocking and Ornament

Watch Leo don his TWiTmas Hat and hang up Ozzy’s TWiTmas Stocking (thanks to Randy and Tammy Faulk who also made the TWiT Mat – see Episode 823 and Episode 856), and watch Dick demonstrate the Ornament Dimmer for his “6-foot tall” Christmas tree.

Gadget Curfew

TWiT’s accountant Lisa Kentzell has found out that Leo may have forgotten about the taxes in his budget. For the rest of the year, Leo has been put on a tight leash as far as spending money on gadgets is concerned. Wasn’t Lisa on the test drive for the Ford Mustang?

Wowwee Not-So-Alive Elvis

Jerry Reiger, a recent convert to the Daily Giz Wiz, has suggested a gadget that is fit for the Daily Giz Wiz – the Wowwee Alive Elvis. It is indeed – see Episode 378. Now available at a discounted price. The problem, Leo thinks, is that the motors of Wowwee Alive Elvis are a bit like Mr Lincoln at Disneyland. A good match for the Wowwee Alive Chimpanzee (Episode 13).
