This video is about how I designed and made my own custom mute guitar pedal for my clip-on mic and piezo pickup on my violin (fiddle). The mic is an AT Pro35 phantom powered XLR condensor microphone, and the pickup is a Fishman V200 piezoelectric transducer. I got all of the parts from PartsExpress.

Thanks to my band (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEKRoVVSZKGih6v_xK4LAdw), Caleb, Pete, Paul and Troy, and to Hannah for filming.

I want you to stick around till the end of the video

'cause we have some news about our Patreon page

Today, I wanna tell ya about an exciting new product:

while filtering out all gestures of bad faith

and denials of your brutal existential freedom.

But, I do wanna talk about celebrity endorsements.

Early star Fatty Arbuckle was hawking Murad brand cigarettes

But, we're totally fascinated by a new trend

that's taking the celebrity world by storm:

NFTs are purchased almost exclusively with,

and mostly unregulated, NFTs are ripe for hype, speculation,

and fortunes to be gained or, as many experts warn, lost.

Side note: If you wanna learn more about the NFT market,

if you can't even carry on a conversation about crypto,

But, you know, please finish this one first. Please?

are actually making fetch happen with NFTs.

 And, eventually, to surprise the audience

with NFT art of their very own, which she designed herself.

 And I wanna give one to everyone in the audience.

 All of this is treated as if it were normal,

as if she were promoting, say, her new book,

album, or line of designer YouTube sunglasses.

Fortune has even gone so far as to name Hilton one

of the 50 most influential people in NFTs

and Matt Damon used his 35 year old career to promote crypto

who's spending his golden years doing this.

 Eh, I don't think so and I'm never wrong about this stuff.

Why are celebrities gaga for NFTs and crypto in general

and what does it say about our fame hungry society?

Let's find out in this Wisecrack Edition:

Celebrities and NFTs: A Match Made in Hell?

I wanna talk about this week's sponsor: Surfshark VPN.

and secure protocols help keep your data secure

that I'm gettin' the best prices available

Because, if a website doesn't know where in the world I am,

on what country I'm in and this can result in huge savings,

especially when shopping for things like airplane tickets.

And don't forget the secure file sharing that comes

By encrypting all of your internet traffic,

which means nobody at Wisecrack will ever know

Test your pronunciation!
