Frick N' Cheap ← the clubhouse

We don't place links. We make episodes.

Two cartoon birds argue about whether your product is worth buying. One of them is very hard to convince.

Frick and Cheap

The format

Cheap wants everything. Frick says no to almost everything — which is the entire point, because it means his yes is worth something. When both birds say yes, a product is certified Frick N' Cheap. When only one does, it goes on that bird's own shelf. When neither does, it goes in the reject pile.

Nothing misleading gets certified, and we don't certify things we haven't looked at. A seal that's handed out freely isn't worth putting on anything.

We probably already made you one

This is the part that's hard to explain in a form field, so here it is playing. Both of these are complete animated episodes — written, voiced, animated, and published by us.

The Cheese Bank Pitch. Cheap wants an 80 lb wheel of Parmigiano-Reggiano on the theory that Italian banks vault it as loan collateral, so owning one makes you a financial institution. Frick concedes the price is fair and says no anyway.

The Chair Reads. An ergonomic chair, tested by a small bird who will not sit still. This one got certified — and it's what a yes looks like when it's earned.

What that means for you

Tell us what you want featured, and we'll write the birds an argument about it. The whole pipeline is in-house — scripts, both voices, animation, publishing — which means a finished branded episode in days, not weeks, and no quoted production budget.

That's the offer no ordinary affiliate can make. Most partners can give you a link in a list. We can give you ninety seconds of two characters taking your product seriously enough to argue about it — on the site, on YouTube, and on social, with the product page linked underneath.

Where we actually are

We'd rather you hear this from us than go looking for it. The show is new. The site launched in August 2026 and the audience is small and early:

4episodes published
461views, first short, day one
2social channels live
100%original animation

If you're screening purely on follower count today, we won't clear the bar, and we're not going to pretend otherwise. What we'd ask you to weigh instead is the thing the numbers don't show: every episode above is original work about a real product, made start to finish by one team, at a cadence we can sustain. Partners who come in early get products woven into the show itself rather than listed beside it.

How we work

Certified Frick N' Cheap

The seal is the product. Two yeses, or it doesn't get one.

The rest of the shelf

Frick N' Cheap is the flagship of a small portfolio run by the same team — PintsPerDay (dehumidifiers), HeatThenCold (sauna & cold plunge), ThreeWheelsBetter (e-trikes), BidetMatch (bidets), and StandUpEasy (home independence). Those are straight, specification-driven review sites with no jokes in them at all. If your product fits one of those better than it fits two arguing birds, say so and we'll put it there instead.
