[stevenbullen]

Oregon Woman Loses $400,000 to Nigerian Email Scam, Gmail Adds Themes to its Awesome Feature List, 15 Images You Won't Believe Aren't Photoshopped, Let Me Google That For You, Ultimate Cat Jump Failure

Watch here! (http://revision3.com/diggnation/bradsavedus/)

By the way.
No Prager or Hippie Glenn. But Dr. Tiki and Lala is at the show. (Not on screen)

[hoot]

Great episode, I laughed so much at the very end!

@14:23, @16:27 and finally @44:18 – Nice shot’s of Lala. Way to go Dr. Tiki.

I have a nice FAT chair for my desk.
Did not cost $1600, nor have ‘arse memory foam’ but it does the trick.
Seriously though... I personally think that a good chair for your arse and back is damn important if you sit at your computer hours at a time.

Oh also. Golden girls were awesome back in the day. Ha ha!

Quality episode.

[compdude414]

Awesome show.....HILARIOUS(montana, Dr Tiki, Lala) and interesting(monkey girl, dating lines, and one armed fighter)...I live like 2 min away from both BWI and Elkridge(only 2 miles away according to google maps). Lucky guy Chris! Maybe a local meet-up in the Glen Burnie/Linthicum/Elkridge area?

[daikun]

Regarding the 15 photos you wouldn't believe aren't Photoshopped: Those Miley Cyrus gummies are indeed a real candy. I've seen them on sale at Sav-On.

And wasn't that ice cave covered in a previous episode? I'm feeling certain it was...

[masterq]

We all know what kevin means when he was talking about what Planet Earth is good for haha...

[wettestwillie]

I think this is one of the best episodes done in a long time. Lots of randomness and spontaneity always makes the show better imo.

[arraz]

I really want more episodes like this. I like the professional aspect of all other shows on Rev3, but Diggnation needs to be different. More odd shit going on around the room. Make it real.

It obviously had to do with Prager and Glenn not there. Find a way to do this with them there.

[vash]

This episode had the right amount of everything. Random cutaways, guest appearances, random after the show moments with Kevin and Glenn, loved it.

You can find more retailers and more info about the desk by doing a google search for "Tanker Desk"

Check with your local junkyard first!

[dash2]

If the first story doesn't make my state look bad, I don't know what would.
=D

[hand-springs]

That was cool to see Kevin and glen drive back and brewing tea at the same time, I think you would get Arrested in this country for doing that! ;)

Does anyone Know the music that they play in the Background in that segment? it was some sort of cool techno Jazz.

Oh for sure.

[molle]

Did anyone else notice that they played Sigur Rós in the car! :)

[yerbestfrend12]

It was "A Dream" by Mary J Blige.

[msmags]

Hilarious episode guys. I liked the sort of 'haphazard' format.

Kevin looks like he's totally into Lala (and who wouldn't be?). He kept glancing over at her and smiling and laughing. Is love in the air??

:D

Im pretty sure it was Sigur Rós as Molle said.

I think you will find he means the segment in the middle. Your talking about the song at the end... which is rock/pop not techno jazz. :p

[smes]

They should really do a diggnation episode up at the tikibar.

But what is "wat"?

[radzack]

Lliked our cameo at the end :D

[jsc315]

I just wanted to point out that they kind of got the 1st story wrong about the lady got scammed of $400,000. The FBI and all her friends and family told her that she was being taken advantage of, yet she still kept sending them money. she was being stupid and ignorant and didn't want to believe what anyone was telling her. She kind of deserved what she got. I feel sorry for the husband though.

[iccanui]

The free flow of it, the silliness of it, it was really good. Personally i like this kinda show cause it felt like we were brought into the environment of the show with la la and dr tiki and heather, it was more like we were all hanging out or camping like alex said.

More like this plzkthnx ur welcome BBQ Dairy Queen.

[jayunsplanet]

LOL!

I don't think that was Sigur Ros, being that I'm a huge fan. It did have a rather jazz ambient feel to it though. I'd love to find out what/who it was.

[compdude414]

LOL!
I love how after that moment, Alex was like 'Oh well' and went on wit the show like Montana didn't just try and kill Dr. Tiki

They definitely used to date, don't think they still do though.

[murphy1d]

And those of us who have Dr.Tiki on our twitter watched them film this diggnation live through the qik stream. And Lala had the cam for a while, which had some sexy footage as well.

What is the actual $1,600 chair that Alex has?

I'm in the market for a new chair :)

[hollywoodbound]

LOL!

Yeah... a lot going on there! Kudos for the pic!

[hollywoodbound]

Haha, oh we know. Too bad im sick now... I dont like maryjane when I am sick. She is always hurting my throat... hmmm... maybe I can eat her and watch planet earth... mmmmm kinky. Wow I just turned myself onby my own post... ummm... (inserts disc number one) i'll uh.... see ya later!

[hollywoodbound]

This episode was just so great. It felt real to me. Thats why I watch dn to begin with. Because it does feel like a high school slumber party where me and my pals just talk about nerdy shit. Way to go guys.

P.S. Seeing Kevin drive his a3 made me even MORE envious... totally DIGG the fact that you were reading A New Earth! Good stuuf my man!

[tweaker]

So what is this infamous chair alex bought anyway?

[trunolimit]

WEP? really? wow.

[forzeti]

Great episode, I loved it.

[kadendark]

what was the song that they played during the tea segment? it was very cool and i would love to find the artist!

For a very nice and new hotel to stay at check out the new hilton that just opened up on Pratt St. In Baltimore. Also downtown Baltimore is only 15 to 25 minutes from Elkridge, MD which is only a stones skip from the BWI airport.

Everybody's guesses are pretty interesting. During the tea segment, the song playing was a stock library song from APM music called "In My Living Room". Pretty appropriate for Diggnation.

"sexy editor"

misleading!

They should totally do a live Diggnation in Baltimore after the Elkridge shoot! Maybe a Digg meetup?

I believe this might have be the chair Alex bought, I saw this in the Wired Magazine. It's called the Herman Miller Emobody Chair (http://www.hermanmiller.com/CDA/SSA/Product/1,1592,a10-c440-p271,00.html)

@cholly
That is not a chair, it's a machine.

[ctraider]

Can we get some confirmation on what chair he has for his "office"?
Here is a couple I'm looking to get and haven't decided.
http://www.ergonomicofficechairs.com/heavy-duty-chairs.asp?categoryID=78
or
http://www.ergo4me.com/i3507.php

Any one else here use a 24/7 chair?

After looking through Alex's twitter postings I found that he said he was going to post a picture but I couldn't find it. However he did mention buying a chair then stating "Relax the Back" so I did a search for that and came up with this:

Still going to need confirmation from Alex on this please.

[alaskalonewolf]

No doubt, and you should film from the court outside the bar:

...now that would be epic. BTW, I love the "Golden Girls (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Golden_Girls)"

[maxhdrm]

Nope Nah Ah I don't feel sorry for anybody that loses that much money because their greed and stupidty levels. anyone who was told that store with any kind of common sense would have checked the store out.

It's really simple just delete the email all together and believe nothing unless a lawyer appears to you in person with proof.

Oh and Kevin good luck with your supposed 20min wake up time drinking tea when you have kids who have school , ballet soccer etc. the so-called take time for yourself goes out the window.

nevertheless one of the funnier shoes but kind of weak on stories.

only a tempur-pedic chair is worth that kind of money and even then it is pushing it. Spending too much time in a chair will garner you a secretaries ass, flat and spread out.

But he games.... Come on you need a good chair for that!

[ctraider]

As much as I like to play games on my PC this chair would be for my office.

I work about 10-12 hrs a day and most chairs don't last me more than a year or two.

[acidmix]

I'm just curious where Kevin got his tea ball set, anyone know?
