All right, guys! HERE IT IS! We've finally launched. The news I've been keeping secret for months is...

I'm hosting my own, brand-new series from the revision3.com network! Revision3.com is a TV network that distributes all their content through the internet... you can watch the episodes on the web site, through your iphone, your ipod, zune, or mobile phone. You can embed episodes in your myspace profile. You can even download the episodes in glorious, high-definition HDTV format.

The show is called "Scam School," and here's the skinny on it from the web site:

Ever wanted to learn a trick that would absolutely explode your friend's brains?  Want the secrets to scamming free drinks when you're at the bar?   Ever just want to screw somebody over, just to laugh at them?  Then welcome to Scam School:  the only show dedicated to social engineering at the bar and on the street...

...I'm Brian Brushwood, your surly, hungover professor.

Here's the deal with scam school:  each episode, we teach you a usable bar trick, street con, or scam.  These are hands-on episodes with real people we find at the bar... If Harvard offered a PhD in deceit, this would be it.  We'll make YOU an expert in social engineering at the bar (or anywhere else)... and you’ll never pay for a drink again.

We've already shot 16 episodes, and will be releasing one every day this week (after which the show goes to a weekly release schedule).

After you check out the pilot episode (just type "scamschool.tv" into your web browser to go straight there), do me a favor and help us spread the word by doing the following:

Click here to digg the show at digg.com
Join the revision3.com forums and offer your comments on the episodes (this helps a lot, as it tells the suits that the show has an energized fan base)
Send a link to the show to your friends and email associates. (Just remember that scamschool.tv takes you right to the shows)
Embed your favorite episodes on your myspace and facebook pages (I know there's only one as of today... in a few days you'll have 4 to pick from).

... and by all means, let me know what you think of the show!

Thanks guys. Can't tell you enough how excited I am about this new project.
