00:01Hey y'all! Joe here. You may know me as Joe Travis, CEO of Video Village.
00:07And if you've been following local news lately, you know that recently we've had to...
00:13Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
00:15That said, I and all of us at Video Village have one last limited time offer for the good people at home.
00:20You see, we had this old ad space lying around, so I figured, why not sell it?
00:24That's right! We're offering Video Village's prime time TV ad space.
00:29That's national television. One minute of pure ad space that you can put anything in.
00:34Literally. I'm selling this for so cheap that most ad space companies would literally kill me for it.
00:39Like, it's like 300 bucks. You know, that's really... You know what, no one will ever buy that.
00:43Half that? You think half that?
00:45Okay, so we're gonna sell it for $150 actually. Again, at a price that most ad companies would only dream of.
00:51Listen, times are tough and I promised I'd pay Andrew Jimmy at least once before I let him go
00:56and I need to make rent this month, so like, you know, I'd really appreciate it if you could, you know, let me up on him.
01:01Thank you for thinking of me, sir.
01:02One more outburst like that and you're fired!
01:04Yes, sir.
01:06Promote your business! Promote a social issue! Sell ad space with it, I don't care what you do with it.
01:11Hey, I'm selling it to you, so you can use it for your stuff. I mean, that's how this works.
01:15It's a transaction, so call 1-800-237-7223. That's 1-800-237-7222. I think that spells out ad space if I entered it correctly.
01:23Uh, and you can buy the ad space from me right now, that we're using right now to sell you the ad space. That's what we're doing.
01:28We got it, you know, it was good?
01:30Yeah, it was fine, it's just that, you know, um...
01:34What?
01:35Well, I mean, aren't we using the ad space we're trying to sell?
01:39No, no, no, you see, when it transfers ownership, you know, that's... I talked to the ad company, at least, they seem to...
01:44You're shaking your head. Is that not how it works?
01:47No.
01:49Well...
01:51Shit!
01:52Shit!
01:53Shit!
