Hello Dick and Chad.
I’m not sure this video fits with your gadget theme, but I’ve been watching through all your videos (I’m back to 2018 now) and I’ve seen you review some puzzle games also and not just electronic gadgets.
This tile game is called Tantrix and I got it quite a few years ago and it’s great fun and challenging to play. The aim is to make the colors match, which sounds easy, but it’s not. Also the booklet has several puzzle variations (one of which i mention in the video the “pyramid puzzle”) so it’s varied and keeps you busy for quite some time.
Take care, Jakob

Dick’s Gadget Warehouse & How To Submit Your Video To Win An Autographed Copy of MAD Magazine.
We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show! 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 38+ year old Alfred E. Neuman picture and a MAD surprise (most likely the current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live outside of US, I can autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email you a high res copy 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! If you submitting warehouse videos for a second, third time, etc., you’ll get the current issue of MAD as a thank you.

Hi Dick and Chad ,
Enjoying the show from United Kingdom.
Hope you’re eye is getting better Chad
I always enjoy your gadgets etc.
I got the solution to the problem of listening to audio books in bed.
These Bluetooth stereo headband stereo headphones are brilliant from Amazon. All colours and prices from £15 upwards.
You have control over pause, vol up vol down on headband and are very comfortable indeed.
Keep up the great work love the show. Den
From the Giz Wiz: Amazon has a ton of them, most quite inexpensive:
