Hi.
I'm the YouTube Deal Guy, Matt Granite.
For those of you subscribed to my channel you now know you get huge deals that I hand
pick, the most recent one right now is a 66% off home theater system but if you're watching
this right now, I'm actually on vacation so as a result of questions we've collected,
from those of you who follow me on Twitter or subscribe to me here, I figured we would
do a Q&T today with an amazing intern by the name of Jeannie.
It's Jeannie right?
Alright.
Jeannie!!I actually knew her name very well.
I just call her "Lilly."
It's a long story.
Lilly / Jeannie, you're a wonderful person and we'll now have you ask me some not so
wonderful questions.
Do you really have a bald spot on the side of your head?
Yes that's actually my most frequently asked question.
Yes.
Can you see it hear?
Yes.
I had a benign cyst removed from the side of my head.
It was disgusting but if anyone wants a photo, I'll email it to you.
But it left me with a bald spot here.
But now, on a different retrospect, how tall are you?
That was the next question or you wanted to know?
Um, maybe it's both.
I'm just over 5"9.
How tall are you?
I am 5"7 and a half.
How do you find all of your deals?
I have no life, I have a wife who lives in a separate country, and I have sources all
over the country through the TV stations I work for, alongside some couponers and techies
and we all watch price trends.
We watch patterns, wait for price drops and when I think something's going to drop in
price I buy it and I test it.
And then we feature it on YouTube before anyone else watches me anywhere else.
Alright, do companies pay you to feature products?
No.
I try to make it clear in every video we shoot and say "these are not paid products" but
I don't make a dime on anything I feature.
YouTube is actually something I do because I love my subscribers and it's a good way
to get the deals tested but I am never, never in contact with companies.
There are a lot of bloggers who make a commission on everything and I don't think it's ethical
even though it happens all over the place.
What position do you sleep in?
Seriously?
I sleep on my back.
Wish there was a more exciting question there but I sleep on my back.
Okay.
Well, interesting.
Thank you!
Are you married?
Yes.
I married my highschool sweetheart.
Her name is Jacqui.
We're two years apart.
We've been together for just over 13 years so if you dot he math, we basically went through
puberty together.
Do you have any kids?
No kids yet.
That will happen at some point but we're still practicing.
On my nephew.
That sounded really bad....but I mean we're learning how to be parents.
Yeah.
Good stuff.
Are you a dog guy or a cat guy? Dog guy.
I have a dog...
Cobey.... extremely good looking.
Nice beard and we enjoy each other.
He's a wheaten terrier.
I have a shelty.
What's his name?
Cody!
Wait Cody and Cobey???
That's awesome.
They should be friends.
Yeah.
They should be.
How old are you?
30.
How old are you?
22!
Wow.
So we're not similar on the age thing.
That's fine youngster.
How long do you sleep for?
I sleep 7-8 hours but I sleep during the day.
I'm nocturnal.
I generally go to bed around noon.
Another question... where are you from?
Toronto.
I work in the states but I'm from Toronto - born and raised.
So do you like the winter?
Oh it's Spanks... show Spanks.
I love you.
I like the winter.
Winter is actually one of my favorite seasons.
I'm a skiier.
Why do you wear a microphone that sounds like it isn't tied to your YouTube Channel?
For those of you who sometimes see a lav.
mic on me, it's because I record YouTube segments during TV commercial breaks.
So the microphone is for my TV work even though I'm flipcammed for YouTube.
Great question!
We have some perceptive viewers out there.
So for those of you who have sent questions in, thanks for having any interest in my not
so interesting life.
A reminder, all my big deals return here next week.
And if you're watching this after the fact, just look back at my other videos.
I would like to thank Lilly / Jeannie for being here.
Maybe next time we'll collect questions for you.
This was fun.
bye bye.
