Water on Mars!!! gnooze 7-31-08

[VeritasTruthEmet]

yo she should use ads thats totally legit. awesome show!

[NukeMePlz]

<3 ur t

[emuholic]

HO ho.. ho

[Squarerig]

Bring on the ads.This lady deserves all our support.Refreshing humour from the old US of A.She really does tell it like it is.

[awffle]

I'm not a fan of subjecting myself to advertisements, but this is an exception where I would think it's definitely worth it.

[thoxbui]

More advertisements! If that means more Gnooze, then bring them on!

[PiratePuppetMelba]

Don't worry about the complaints.

People will complain about anything on the internet.

[davidkazzmann]

Hello?

Unemployment is at an all time HIGH... (Gnooze 8-1-08)

Join the club sweetie! It's the powers that be, making sure that we remember the wonderful leadershit (not a typo) that we have "elected" to have for the last decade.

$1500 a second??? Sheesh! They are making more money than a drink distributor at an outdoor concert in 100 degree weather!

Luv ya Marta!

You people start tossing her money! Next thing you know, she will install a brass pole... *wink*

[briankofke]

Don't sweat the ads thing; just continue to be honest and up front with people, and you will usually be pleasantly surprised with their perception, and reception of your views.

[Thinking4Free]

You go girl... I want to see you on SNL

[DeathRattle101]

don't listen to those people about the ads, do what you have to do. Those are just idiots who cry when something isn't free.

[heraclitus44]

I like your show. Very funny.

[JimmerSD]

Ignore the jerks Marta! There is nothing wrong with looking for sponsorship. That is not e-begging. E-begging is "send me some money cause I need a new computer"

[carnivalofsouls2047]

No comment.

[beornborg]

I subbed. I'll luv this show with or without the advertisements. Revision 3 does a good job making jokes about their sponsors and they even make their own fake ones.

[Nic33rd]

Just keep going. Rock on, Brian and Marta!

[AtheriaMagic]

Your show is AWESOME! You deserve to get paid for it.

[willb5k]

we love you, ignore the haters. do your thing.

[Dannysawake]

NASA is covering up the truth by keeping us watching there fake program.Anyone who looks into it knows UFos are real.

[ZachsMind]

It is true that there is other intelligent life in this universe. It is however not necessarily true that any intelligent life has visited this dinky little planet. We're less significant to the rest of the universe than a bug that you catch landing on your hamburger.

In fact, be thankful that UFOs are not "real" because if aliens did visit Earth? They'd flick us off, and claim this planet for their own.

The movie Independence Day had a happy ending only cuz cuz humans were making it.

[Dannysawake]

Im sorry you want to feel your an authority.You are not .I have seen several and had contact myself.You can believe your 3d view if you want.They are here enmass, they know we are headed for major earth changes.So laugh all you like but time will unveil the larger reality.NASA is a fraud like it or not.

[ZachsMind]

DannysAwake says, "Im sorry you want to feel your an authority.You are not .I have seen several and had contact myself.."

So you must be an authority on crazy. Next time I need input on that, I'll look you up.

I never claimed to be an authority. I'm not even good at math, but I understand the laws of probability.

It is VERY probable we are not the only life in the universe. It is also VERY probable we'll never find extra-terrestrial life.

The universe is too effin' big.

[Dannysawake]

You are right my mistake , and yes im carzy. sweet dream sleeping beauty

[ZachsMind]

"sweet dream sleeping beauty"

Right back atcha, Snow White.

[Dannysawake]

This is so anoying , two of the men who walked on the moon , Edger Mitchelle being the most recent , have both said that Aliens are here and contact is ongoing.then Nasa comes up with this shit the next week?

[blkbishop112]

What do you mean the Aliens couldn't be reached for comment. They know, that we know, that they know and their scared.

[lastnymleft]

I'll watch an ad for you, Marta.

Heck, I'd take a bullet for you, Marta!

[mikma]

lets go swimming on Mars...MIKMA WAS HERE

[qiranger]

Awesome!!!!! Sip the beverage Marta!

[ydyammo]

Small ads in the form of scrollers or as long as the current "Bush" thingy would not disturb a thing :)

You roxx 99.9% of the time.. ;)

[parsaim]

Hey gnooze: (EXCUSE MEeee!)

We are upset! ... You never said they tasted the water on Mars, Are you against science? I love Mars and I like to live there for the rest of my life, at least for not to pay TAX.

[squitmaa]

You should get paid to do what you love, anyone who's says different is a self loathing turd. Great vids.

[TheUncompensatoryGuy]

I think you should run 2-4 min ads, and shorten the gnews. That way you could fly to hawaii.

[geojus1]

Whose complaining about an ad? It's your show, Marta, you can put whatever the hell you want.

Great stories. Water on Mars! wooh!

[chimera15]

Zarbot and Blargel should sponsor your show!

[butterflie2484]

Advertisement? I enjoyed the previous video so much I didnt even notice! Well, great video as usual. :)

[halizzle]

Oh boo. It's just an ad! :D Go, Marta!

[CHUCKtheFED]

the heck with 'sustainable'

we're all just pissed

cause we can't ever hit

that pesky ole

whacka mole...

[EvilMongrelMonkey]

Congresses supoena means absolutely nothing... neither does the Federal Judge.... Separation of Powers... ain't gonna happen.

[strav12]

Well - Frank Zappa would have approved of your advertising thaing - he said that people like him (intelligent and creative) were generally not liked by the mainstream and would be prefered extinct as a species - so yeah, if you don't figure your own survival needs then maybe you should stay with yo mama she can do yo laundry and cook for you maybe you should stay with yo mama you're really kindda stoopid and ugly too - OR - you're just dumb all over - and maybe a little ugly on the side...

[ShamanWS6]

Hey, become an Internet free vlogger. Post up the ads. If you contribute to people paying attention to the world around them instead of inane "reality" shows, you have my vote.

[anmoose]

If there were two complainers, then I missed the second one. There are obviously a large majority of us who aren't offended at all by your little promo clip. I personally hope you can get the backing you need.

Meanwhile, I'm moving to Mars. And I'm taking the boat and water skiis with me.

Moosie

[nomosushi]

does this mean you need to have those annoying comercials ...just kidding do what what godda do I'm here to see you

[69Macleod69]

Ignore the idiots,you deserve any money you can get from this,if they have a problem perhps it's time they started thier own.

[HumanTruth0000]

You work really hard to make something great. I love your show very much. You are crazy chica, lol. Advertise all u want: If people don't like it, they would miss you if u were gone.

[DudeX01]

Yeah so what? Let her ask for advertising and donate to the show!

[everyonelovesbutters]

woah!!! turbo intro!!!

[hypnofan35]

Maybe get GeorgeWad to say different stuff in the add. i think you are very entertaining and should be doing the regular news instead of Brian Williams or Caydee Couric.

[mittius8]

Marta, I know some purists believe that advertising could change the content of these shows but for people (like you) who regularly try to put on a show (not just vlogging here and there) the need to underwrite your costs seem completely justifiable. Good luck and I'd rather see advertising than have you disappear altogether. You have a great channel!

[godlyfighter]

Please, someone drive a dumptruck full of money to her house so she won't stop making these videos.

[kardel100]

on my way!!!!

[anmoose]

I have a dumptruck, and it's full of money, but I can't afford to buy the gas to drive it there.

[godlyfighter]

I'm sure Marta wouldn't mind you using some of that cash to fill up the tank....unless it was full of 1s. I believe right now a dumptruck full of singles wouldn't be able to fill a dumptruck.

[conciousgood]

Advertise if you want girl... gotta make dat cash to buy smaller T-Shirts for me:-D

[Diasfu]

You are great, I Love your show. Every weekday I look forward to it-"So what's the news today" runs in my head everytime I get on. As long as you make it more about the news than the adds, you have my support. Wish you all the best!

[conspiracy777]

It's YOUR show ... you put what you want in it! Who are the nit wits that are "complaining" about the ad for an ad?

Let me at um I tell ya.

Do your thing and let them start their own show if they think they can do it the right way.

:)

[seneca67]

You Rock Marta. The Gnooze sets the tone. Ty :)

[1NethgilN]

whats with beeping, this is you tube, not tv. love ya. 5*'s.

[gnooze]

I think the beeping makes it more funny... maybe?

[EmptySeed]

Don't worry about the negative comments. You already know that. The bigger you get here the more ppl are gonna talk shit. It's a small percentile. The rest of us love and support you in what you do. You rock Marta.

[gnooze]

Thanks Adam! YOU rock. Thanks for the perspective.

[webadage]

I love you and I love your show and I hope you make a million dollars but let's think about what you just said. You want to make a three and a half minute show your full time job? Wow, me too!!! How can I do that?

[gnooze]

I'm glad you like the show! Thanks! True, the final product is around 3:00 but it takes hours more work than that.

Think about this: when I was a TV reporter, with a much larger support staff, the byproduct of my full time job was a 2 minute report each day.

There's more to it than the end result.

[100and1000s]

I hope you find a sponsor real soon.... its a win win situation for everyone (viewers, sponsors and you) that you do for now though can i say i appreciate all your hard work, i know that doesnt pay your bills but at least you know all your hard work is appreciated.

[gnooze]

Thank you so much. It really helps to know that.

[Blargaldalien]

Hello,Marta. I must concur with Zarbod.

I do not know "too much". That is what "they " tell us to say. I am relived that they only were able to melt that "liquid" on Mars. Having determined where the lander would be digging,Zarbod and I left behind "space-y-mens" to be examined by the lander. Ha ha ,the joke's on NASA. I will see if Zarstar Industries could find a suitable product to have Gnooze advertise. You efforts are appreciated by Zarbod and I.

[gnooze]

The joke's on NASA!? Hahahahaha. :) I would love to advertise Zarstar Industries.

[mikma]

hey space boy I just asked marta to go swimming on Mars and guess what she said :}

[Blargaldalien]

I estimate she said,

"Mikma!"

[librano]

i hope you get paid so you can make more shows... but dont go the FOX route once the big money starts rolling in :P

i like the corners of your mouth... they're cute :D always pointing up... like a mona lisa smile lol...

weird... i know...

[gnooze]

No danger of going all Fox-y here. A gnooze clip did air on Shepherd Smith once, but I wouldn't take a job there or emulate their operation in any way.

[i3kel]

I love how everyones defending the advertising for advertising now... Youtube people are so quick to change their tone.

[Bubba186]

who was the idiot complaining? I say waterboard him/her....with no intention of torture...of course...we want to keep it legal....

[gnooze]

HILARIOUS. I mean it, too funny.

[piratakamrata]

You do make a great show.

Don't worry

Be happy

forget about those people that is only looking for something to whine about

[ZachsMind]

How much would a day cost, anyway? I'm assuming it's so much I can't afford it, but since I don't know, maybe I'm assuming too much?

What if a group of us could get together some change and buy a day? So Marta could get a new Rainbow Brite tshirt? Do they still make those?

Admittedly though, if a group of viewers sponsored a day of Gnooze, no one would know, cuz she could still say "This show is brought to you by Viewers Like You." So maybe it wouldn't be worth it?

[observationmode]

this video is a response to a mccain ad? must be a joke in there somewhere.

[itsbizbuz]

Don't listen to haters what you are doing is great.

[quietcon]

hey marta, you don't have to justify yourself about the advertising - keep doing what you're doing

[KlaxonCow]

Hey, Marta, about the advertising.

It was just one guy complaining. One guy. Out of, like, thousands of views.

Admittedly, that one guy complained loud and frequently. But you know what they say about empty vessels, right?

Anyway, he completely invalidated his argument against "consumerist culture", when the question was turned back on him and he just said "not my problem".

Child slave labour producing his clothes?

Not his problem.

[KlaxonCow]

Rainforests being felled for gazing land for the meat on his plate?

Not his problem.

Unsustainable energy consumption forcing Western interference in the Middle-Earth, creating a powder keg for terrorism, war?

Not his problem.

He paid his money, he expects his service. No questions asked.

[KlaxonCow]

It's not his problem how they do it - how many people are indirectly killed and what irreversible damage is done to society and the planet to get it done - because he paid his money and that gives him "entitlement".

Now that is the dictionary definition of a "consumer", on all its various semantical levels. Including the one which implies "parasite".

Fuck him, Marta. He ain't worth your time.

Keep on fighting the good fight. Because, unfortunately, there are not nearly enough people who are.

[gnooze]

Thanks for the perspective. He was one of my first dozen or so loyal viewers so I guess I took it kind of hard.

[KlaxonCow]

Understandable.

But here's another perspective - are your loyal viewers today any less loyal than your first loyal viewers?

If your newest loyal viewer had found your show back when you started, they'd have been one of your first dozen loyal viewers too, right?

It's the degree of loyalty and support they give you what counts. Not the rather arbitrary "date of commencement" when they hit the subscribe button.

It's a mere "coincidence of timing" between your oldest and newest subscribers. ;D

[999bob666]

You make a cool show. Much luck with the endeavor.

[travshorts]

who is shitting their pants over these ads?

[cphellp]

I want you to make this into your day job... !!!! You do a grate job!!!

[megamandapop]

you ain't gotta splain yourself!! you keep doin' what you're doin'. dammit.

[Rocketman16]

Blargal is going to flip Marta! Nice :)

[ZanyBear]

RAWR!!

[gnooze]

RAWR INDEED!

[MethMojimbo]

Been watching since the start and it's still as witty and entertaining and delicious as ever. Yup. Good job Marta.

[gnooze]

Aw shucks. Thanks for sticking with me!

[justin1o0]

Imagine if there was life in the water.

That would be awesome.

[gnooze]

And terrifying.

[justin1o0]

2 planets with life in one solar system.

That would mean there could be billions of civilizations on the universe.

That probably is terrifying.

[TimberGeek]

I don't mind the solicitation.

I suppose, Bush could wear a bit thin on some people.

[zqueenbean]

Zarbod and Blargal on the gnooze... I am feeling so proud.

You deserve every penny you can earn!

[gnooze]

And pennies it is. :)  But really, thanks!

[jx14aby]

Marta,

Love your show. Love you. This is the most fun I've ever had watching the news. And if you can get some ad money out of it, good for you!

[gnooze]

Wowie zowie! Thanks a ton for being super nice. :)

[geekyvince]

I totally agree there is no harm in ads. I wish I could make a living off my films.

[gnooze]

We can dream, right? :)  Maybe someday.

[HaleyMary]

The extra terrestrials part was the best. :)

[gnooze]

Glad you liked it!

[theDave1956]

I don't have a problem with the ads. I hope you get some sponsors.

BTW, I thought the "could not be reached for comment" from Zarbod and Blargal was a great idea :-)

[gnooze]

Thank you! It just seemed like the perfect alien allusion. :)

[geargemartin]

product placement can be funny and profitable.

[gnooze]

Now if I could just get some products to place...

[MillionthUsername]

I had this theory that the whole planet of Mars was covered with liquid water, but that it was red and looked like a big desert with rocks, so like...you couldn't tell. No one at NASA would listen. They were all like, "Yeah, but we have instruments and stuff..."

Gosh, they're so territorial. I have theories too, darn it! : )

Hey Marta, don't sweat the advertising thing. Just think about YouTube selling advertising here while you and everybody else are creating all the content for them!

[gnooze]

*slaps forehead

Do'h! We are doing all the work while they sit on their chaise loungers made of gold!

[BettaScream]

Nice touch with the alien dudes. ;)

I can't believe you got negative feedback about the ad thing. You have a totally valid point. Some people, ugh!

Well, I'm moving to Mars! Talk to ya later!

[gnooze]

Go figure, huh? Thanks for being nice. Have fun on Mars! :)

[palmtreez101]

You are providing a service so I wouldn't mind an ad or two. But nothing too obvious or dumb product placement stuff.

[gnooze]

Duly noted. What if the product placement is awesome and perfect fit?

[rain8a]

awesome video!

scientist humor is funny.....well at least yours is!!

[gnooze]

Thank you! I think scientists are pretty damn funny, even if they don't know it. :)

[ZachsMind]

"I think they know too much!" <-- def LOL there.

Okay who's bitching about the ad rev spot? If I could afford it, I'd buy a day myself. Just imagine: "This episode of The Gnooze is brought to you buy ZachsMind! Thanks for your support!" That'd be bitchin'. I mean the good kinda bitching not the bad kind that other people are doing. Lay off Marta!

Y'know if each of us who watch this show could buy a day, Marta could buy a new Rainbow Brite shirt! ...do they still make Rainbow Brite shirts?

[gnooze]

I should look into getting a new Rainbow Brite shirt! It's actually a reproduction, not authentic vintage... a company called Junk Food makes them (advertising now even in comment replies! LOL. They don't even know I exist actually)

Thanks for being so supportive. The reason I would want ads/sponsors is so my viewers DON'T have to pay, you know? I want somebody else to foot the bill. You're too nice.

[sac2ase1]

Hmmm Good One As always Marta Right On...

[gnooze]

Hey thanks!

[ptrptms]

Advertising is totally ok with me. As long as it doesn't compromise your journalistic integrity.

[gnooze]

I should have mentioned that: if advertisers do ever become interested, I will most certainly not just take money from anybody to promote their products. One of the reasons I got out of TV News was all the shadyness.

[Blargaldalien]

Shade is good on sunny days.

[theheroslegend]

I wouldn't mind the ads one bit! Hell, half of the air time of my favorite shows are commercials anyway. What's a little logo going to hurt?

[Zarbod]

Marta, I've actually never been accused of knowing "too much." It's usually something like "Zarbod, you're an idiot."

I think we should all pay you $1500 a second for this show (Are you listening Exxon?) I can't imagine what it must be like to spend all of your evenings on a show which doesn't pay you a dime. Hmm. I'll try to imagine what that must be like :)

PS: Just got my Alaskan Dream Job!

[Zarbod]

Water water everywhere and oh so out of reach!
