Still In the Game

Forced Break June 22nd, 2009 Romance Languages

A Brothers Winn Special Update

Uh Oh! No video. You will need the Flash player and Javascript enabled to watch this show.

It’s been a long time… Do I look different?

Well, I shaved. I kinda had to – I had a job interview. There’s just nothing like sitting across the table from a guy who’s asking you, “Is this really what you want to do with the rest of your life?” and you find your head’s nodding ‘yes’ even though your brain’s screaming (slowed down) ‘NOOOO!’

A lot of you have been asking what have we been up to. What have we been up to?

Have you ever heard of ‘Cash Cab?’ No, they already have a host for that show, but here’s the short version:

So the guys who do that show contacted us and said, “Hey, we want to do a show with you,” and we said, “Ok.” But then they contacted us back after a lot of back and forth and said, “No, we really don’t want to do a show with you,” which is really strange because they were the ones that came to us and said “We want to do a show with you” in the first place.

The bottom line was, “Don’t call us, we’ll call you. Again.” Which… they won’t.

Strike one, you’re out.

Wait, that’s not how it works.

It is in this game.

But we didn’t give up there. We ended up talking to a bunch of other production companies, including the Discovery channel. Hey, we did all those write ups – we had to pitch it to somebody. We’ve been pitching and no one’s at bat.

I really don’t like this game. I mean, all you do is stand there, stretching, waiting for something to happen. That’s what playing the field’s all about.

Why can’t life just give me what I want? Without any effort on my part? Is that too much to ask?! Boy am I a whiner…

Who you know is very important. And we don’t know anybody. You got to be a player and we’re more like the water boy in the dugout.

So, what’s the new plan? Ha, what isn’t. We entered the show into a film festival where the prize is getting your stuff in front of real TV producers. Yeah, real ones with arms and legs and everything. And there are only four categories. Drama fiction, drama nonfiction, comedy fiction, and comedy nonfiction. Come on, who else is going to enter with comedy nonfiction?

Why so desperate to go mainstream? It’s simple. You see, all the money is mainstream. Do you know how much most podcasters make? *Whispers* Zero. Yeah, they don’t tell you that for a reason.

Ok, enough about our field of dreams. Camera guys got splinters from the bench so it’s time to talk about the show. Our show. You know, the show that’s on break? Was on break. Are we still on break?

Just try and think of the past few months as a really long seventh inning stretch. With no singing. [Sings]

So we’ve had a few suggestions made: start putting up user content, make a DVD or a cool new intro that will bring in millions of views.

[New video intro plays]

Snappy, huh? Let’s watch it again.

[New video intro plays again]

So we’re making a DVD with a bunch of our favorites and four, will-never-be-seen-online episodes. Unless some little, dirty internet pirate rips it and then uploads it. We’re sending Mickey after you.

[Mickey Mouse voice] Hahaha!

Here’s the catch: There’s always a catch. If enough of you preorder the DVD then we’ll be able to make the DVDs and keep the show alive over the summer. You win, we win, everybody wins. It’s like tee-ball.

Right now our batting average is like ninety-six which sounds really good… except it’s not out of a hundred.

    Aww man!!! So no more new ROFL/WTF (WTF in a funny way) shows coming up on the internet; and you guys are stuck to only four new shows only on DVD?! This bites; not only that this is my first post here (I just registered today), I can't buy the DVD cause I'm broke and my parents won't let me get anything online!

    Yeah, what happened to the Undergroud Video that was on here the other day….did camera guy decide you couldn’t buy him off and snatch the video??

    Can’t wait for the results…we’ve been voting for you the whole time…we hope you beat the Osmond guy (although he is really nice, I met him and his family had me take pictures of them outside the Temple many years ago!!)

    Too bad about getting 2nd place, Brett – I know you were aiming for 3rd… :)

    And thanks, socialcutie; I thought of another great themed volume: “Language & Grammar”… I have several friends who are teachers and would LOVE it!

And you took it even one step further, I love the Holidays idea...they could do a "politically incorrect" disk with all the current event shows (gay marriage, the bailout...) and a "weird science" volume...you've got a great idea.

    I love socalcutie82′s idea about making different volumes of wyotk DVDs – in fact, I think it would be awesome to have a “wyotk for the holidays” with all the Thanksgiving, Christmas, & New Year’s episodes on it!

    Unofficial notice: You can buy the DVD anytime. It is the voting deadline that has past. And though technically voting ended earlier today, I haven’t downloaded it yet. Procrastination. So its not too late but it probably will be in about 15 minutes … unless something distracts me … ’cause that is just the way I roll. – The Guy who Counts the Votes

    For anyone who wants to join me, starting on my next payday, and continuing from there, I am pledging a $10 dollar doughnation to this site every month. We may not be able to create a subscriber side of the site, but I can still pay for it like it is.

    I’m going to vote with my feet…

  • 7/22/09 @ 15:45

    Pheonix_blu{207}

    If they did it in volumes they would have to sell 150 of each volume to cover the production costs of each independent volume, so we would just be right back where we are now.

  • 7/22/09 @ 10:16

    socalcutie82

    Here's just a thought...since it looks like it might take a while to get those 650 DVDs ordered to keep the show afloat for a few months, what if you sold 2 or 3 DVDs (like WYOTK volume 1, 2, 3, etc...) and then we can all buy the volumes. You would probably end up selling almost the 600 DVDs (150 DVDs for each volume, three volumes is 450!!) So my suggestion, make a few DVDs and let us purchase ... (more)
  • 7/22/09 @ 9:29

    I would not pay for the show, but I wouldn’t mind watching ten minutes of advertising and seeing 98% of wyotk.com plastered with more advertising, yeah I would definitely prefer it not to be that way, but if it brings the show back it’s worth it.

  • 7/21/09 @ 21:01

    AngInAmerica

    I don’t think they could get away with that if they called it a fee… ’cause fees are evil. :P

  • 7/21/09 @ 13:30

    InsaneAI{207}

    Hmm.. Just throwing this out there…

    Who here would be willing to pay a monthly subscription fee for the show? Say like $7.00 bucks a month?

    I would do it.. I’m already paying that much for my Glenn Beck, and Rush Limbaugh subscriptions.

    Hey Brothers Winn, if enough people were willing to do that, would that potentially save the show?

  • 7/21/09 @ 13:21

    InsaneAI{207}

    I’m down with that idea. But short of giving them money, I don’t have many other ideas…

    I would be willing to volunteer part of my time to doing show research if that would help. That way the brother’s can shorten the amount of time needed to put a show together.

  • 7/21/09 @ 12:42

    designertoxophilite

    I love the fact that the brothers Winn still love creating the podcast, despite not making much money from it. And the fact that not only have they built a strong following [although not as big as they would like] and that the community they created still interacts and is willing to argue with eachother. Maybe we should put our communal heads together and argue over a creative way to help ... (more)
  • 7/20/09 @ 13:36

    AngInAmerica

    I completely agree, InsaneAl. I’m a total skeptic in situations like that.
    I’m just grateful the Winn Brothers don’t charge for watching their stuff online… they let US choose the price, and let us pay in money, time, enthusiasm, or whatever we have to give. :)

  • 7/20/09 @ 12:41

    InsaneAI{207}

    Another thought... If there were endless advertisements on this page for other companies products. Wouldn't that hurt the brothers credability? If they're talking about WYOTK about a product, and you see ads plastered all over the page for that product, can you really believe them anymore? Or can you believe them as much as you would have? So, if they give a product a good review, it's becaus ... (more)

    You're right AngInAmerica, I know because I do fix cars for a hobby, and since it is a hobby_ I rarely charge any labor. This means my friends and family get their cars repaired super-cheap, However I would eventually like to quit my job and fix cars full time, but if I do that I will be forced to charge people labor to support myself since that would become my job, I just have to hope that the pe ...

    Thanks, MoreFood for not being offended by the responses you received. I think I do see your point, but - to answer your question about taking a hobby a step further - I think it depends on the hobby, and on the step. You seem to put WYOTK on par with two brothers building model airplanes - if they really wanted to start doing that for a living, I guess it would make sense to look for sponsors a ... (more)
  • 7/19/09 @ 8:18

    Well, the reason I started this exchange of opinions, was essentially to find out how other people think of taking a hobby a step further. To be honest, I think that putting so much time and effort in entertainment without asking for any financial support (at first) is admirable.

    Ouch, MoreFood - that's pretty harsh. I'm sorry that I don't pay you to read, but I'm afraid it really doesn't do anything for me. WYOTK, on the other hand, has given me useful information, balanced opinions, and hours of hilarious entertainment for me and my family. I don't consider them getting something for nothing if I donate. Besides - when the hobbies or art that someone loves turn out t ... (more)

    Although I am willing to support the effort of the DVD, is it not so that if one chooses a hobby and wants fame, one should not beg for money? Or is this what is nowadays meant by the American Way?

    I know you guys have probably answered this before, but, I’m just too lazy to go and figure out where you’ve answered it. Kinda like I’m too lazy to try getting into 22.

    Hey Kel, I’m “one of those people” myself, I was just giving them a little flack as a joke. I also agree with the Bros viewpoints , especially because they have thought them out and can back them up with facts and common sense, not just talking points.

Winn, think global warming is all hype, think gay marriage deserves to be seriously considered from all perspectives, think chick flicks are formulaic, use a Mac, and agree with them on any other social/political views they have shared.

    So close ... just two more. But Murphy's Law irrevocably decrees there can only be one more.
      EDIT: I guess Murphy was wrong just this once. But he probably would have said the one time you really believe his predictions will be right, they won't. It looks like you all will be getting your DVD's after all. But if you pre-ordered one or more don't forget to vote!

    • 7/8/09 @ 18:41

      We just updated the site. Anyone who has pre-ordered a DVD gets to vote for the shows that will be on it. One vote per copy pre-ordered. But you have to hurry, once the DVDs go into production the polls close.

I understand having to get another job, but I hope you elect to continue the show in your spare time. What would we do without your witty, yet sarcastic commentary on the complex and pressing issues of our time?

Maybe those wanting to get in can be inspired by the DVD and get a great idea of something to do that might get them in too =) Just get creative, that’s what the [22] is all about!!

      I agree with wagazarm, there should be a group called 150, but only if the 650 mark is reached, it doesn’t save the show otherwise.
      Or, maybe a group called 650, but that’s getting to be a really big group..

      Of the 15 episodes on the dvd, how did you choose the other 11 episodes? Are they your favorites or just randomly chosen?

      There’s the 22, and now there should be 150 … Those of use who were too late to get into the cool crowd, but those of us who find this corner of the net way too amusing to let this show fall into the abyss. Hopefully we can get to 650. (Wait, would we need to create a new group then too? ;)

      I need to be able to purchase the DVD other than the choices you have. Is there another way to pre order?

      as soon as I get paid, which is veryyy soon I can buy it. Trying to save for college is making my spending money very tight. This is the first on my list to spend money on though, I love this show so much. hahaha I saw the equals D! Love it! (equals D)

      marc, um... no comment? The happy thing about buying the dvd is that is supports the show. Obviously we put those episodes there to encourage people to buy discs. We realize that some people will "share" and have made no safeguards on the dvd to prevent it. Perhaps we're misguided, but we think (hope) the general public will support things they think are worth while. See our vote with your ... (more)

      You know… on your show about internet piracy… you technically welcomed 30-40% of the internet to steal your show… Does that include ripping the 4 unseen episodes?

      Well done for keeping your dream alive, even if it does mean you have to go main stream.

      InsaneAI

      Thank you for responding. I’ll be ordering this one way or another. I missed you guys, you’re one of the larger links in my daily sanity chain.

      You make me laugh, and inform me at the same time. There are very few things that do both.

    • 6/23/09 @ 12:28

      The Brothers Winn

      InsaneAI,
      We’ll take pre-orders until we get 150. After that we make the discs and ship out the orders as we receive them. The faster we get to 150 the sooner they’ll be available.

      Hey Brothers Winn,

      How long do I have to get my pre-order in? Unfortunately, I’m broke at the moment, but I want to buy several copies of this DVD. I should have money in a few weeks. But you know how it is, raising kids and all, the wallet, and pockets are usually full of nothing but dryer lint. So how long will you be accepting pre-orders?

      Hooray! I'm so glad you're back! I've already pre-ordered my DVD! I do have to agree with marc & graceofbass that the laughing in the intro and ending on "no" was kind of weird. Is there an inside joke that I didn't get? Well, anyway, a bizarre intro is still worth it to get a DVD full of your fun, quirky, informative, and interesting videos! ...I just hope it's not at the beginning of e ... (more)

      The DVD will be NTSC video encoded for all regions. (It’s our understanding that most modern PAL DVD players can read NTSC but not the other way around. Please let us know if that is not the case.)

      graceofbass

      Oh holy crap! You’re back! The laughing in your new, snazzy intro is a tad on the creepy side, but it did make me laugh :)

      So, how many pre-orders do you need in order to actually make the DVD? It would be kinda fun to have a countdown bar with the total number of pre-orders.

      I’m so happy! Whoo!

Is it possible to offer a PayPal option for those still stuck in their dirty evil grip? That is of course until I empty my account buying a dvd :). Its only about 20 bucks in there but I hate to see it go to waste. Please respond gently.
