It's a Brand New Opening Intro
After setting up TWiT's "Home Office" in Pickles Gap, Arkansas (see Episode 830), Leo decides to create a morning mood, with a little help from Dennis Wunderlin and Grieg's Peer Gynt Suites, for the brand new day and the brand new week - and it's a brand new opening intro. Watch how Dick and Leo prepare for it before the show starts.

A Warning Jingle for Too Many Jingles?
Some people complain that there are too many themes in the show. Michael Rivers suggests that there should be a jingle to warn them that a jingle is coming. Personally, Michael thinks that the Daily Giz Wiz is pure joy.
There have been similar suggestions before for a jingle to forewarn the playing of the Letters Jingle (because it used to start rather abruptly when it was on Leo's external hard drive). See Episode 266 to Episode 278, and Episode 664.
