“Hey, it’s not like we’re selling out. I mean, it’s just that, we’re selling out.” First they’re bought by CBS, and now they’re sponsored by Dell.

more power to them. i dont think they sold out at all. they have to pay the bills. i’ve been up to their offices and production studio bc it is right by my house and they are all very savvy guys and girls and were bootstrapping for a while. it was good to see that they are making a living off their very interesting content. congrats and keep up the good work. john
