TWiT.tv… This Week In Tech, which was the original show, and is now the network name for about 30+ shows, found at http://twit.tv has one show that really good, called The GizWiz, I’m guessing is short for Gizmo Wizard?
If you are a fan of MAD magazine, you might recognize the name Dick DeBartolo. Dick is the feature host of teh The GizWiz, while Tech.TV/TWiT founder Leo Laporte is the show host. While watching episode #1426 of The GizWiz, I was startled out of my other work to see a toy train running in Dick’s backyard during a gizmo review. I rewound the clip. It is an LGB electric unit with a Santa Fe modern caboose in tow running along his fence.
The part with the train starts about nine and a half minutes in, but I highly recommend that you watch the entire episode. The GizWiz is an excellent show, and TWiT.tv is an awesome network with my favorite show being Security Now with Steve Gibson… but who’d have thought we’d see LGB equipment on TWiT?

Edit: Don’t skip over the first part of the show… the jingle is cool, and the first segment on Kevin Rose and his dog Toaster is absolutely amazing. Kevin’s video, post on youtube on Saturday has already generated over 5.5million views, several of which are mine, its absolutely astonishing, and IS SAFE FOR WORK!
