For this effect we’ve dressed up a straight-up old school bar scam. Here’s the simple presentation for the classic “you do as I do” effect: Bet a friend he can’t copy everything you do.

This is the first episode from the second set of shoots we did. I think there's a noticeable improvement in the pacing and flow. Plus, this gag makes me laugh.

Kick-assery, man. Loving the show, but I am concerned about the lack of sponsors (yeah I worry about that stuff, sorry) but I hope you know the short length and this type of content means I, and probably others would watch these episodes more than once to get the stuff down.
Great work!

Yet another great ep. I like how you can knock out a few eps with just one shoot, should help keep the flow going.
I like the ends when you recap the trick and mention important parts but it seems like you're sort of moving away from that slightly, I say bring it back. The last trick (ep 3), I'm still a bit confused by and that recap would've helped :)
Great show though, keep up the great work!

That's the last of the dailies. New episodes will come out every Thursday at noon Eastern...
...Unless there's some kind of letter-writing campaign demanding more than one episode a week (hint, hint).

Really dig the show, Brian. You come off as genuine, so it's fun to watch no matter what the scam is. Thumbs up, dude.

After 4 episodes, my verdict on whether I would watch this show on a regular basis is this: absolutely.
In fact, every time I've woken up this week, I remember there's a new Scam School up, and the quality of the show is great.
So count this as another vote for dailies.

Dude, I knew that sounded familiar. You just sent me down a 30-minute Mr. Show rabbit hole.

Hey Brian Great Show. I looked forward to watching it the past few days. I thought you should know that I got my friend to totally fall for the head banging against the table with the quarter scam. It worked out perfectly :D

Hey Brian, I wanted to tell you that I did the puzzle trick on my parents. I told my mother that if she could solve the puzzle with the quarters then she could keep the coins. But if she couldn't then she had to give me a dollar. It worked perfectly. :D Time to move on to my coworkers at the store :p Thanks for an easy buck.

Loving the show...although a couple of them I'm catching on to early enough (like the quarters, I paused it and got int in around 9-13 moves...and the mirror, I kept thinking 'don't swallow dude'). Maybe I should have a drink before watching...
Amusing as hell though.

Another great show Brian! I'll be trying this tonight! Who should we contact to send feedback for the shows and to request more?

Good question... I know they read the forums, so I'd start here. Just make your opinions heard.

This is going to be the last scam I'm refreshing myself on and grabbing for tonight.
It would be nice if I can get the same initial inverted response.
