Watching the Dragons Den episode from the United States
How to get around the Geo-restricted streaming
Our 2010 appearance on the CBC program Dragons Den is famous in Canada. It was one of the most popular episodes of the year.
We taped it in May of the previous year. When it aired on January 13, we were swamped with orders. Within 18 hours, we were sold out of Tofino. It would be another two years before our limited production could meet demand.
But, copyright restrictions prevented streaming Dragons Den outside Canada, so we remained relatively unknown south of the border. Let's change that. There are two options for American visitors who want to view two old guys changing the guitar business forever.
- If you have a VPN (a virtual private network) open it and select a server in Canada. Then simply enter the following web address into your browser:
https://www.cbc.ca/dragonsden/m_pitches/mackenzie-marr-guitars - If you don't use a VPN, or, don't have any idea what a VPN is there's another solution.
Copy the URL,"https://www.cbc.ca/dragonsden/m_pitches/mackenzie-marr-guitars" (don't copy the quotes)
Go to the following web site
https://www.4everproxy.com
Past the URL you copied in step one into the web site box.
Select "Canada (Quebec)" from the drop down server list
Number two is a bit of a pain, but it works.
PLEASE NOTE. Sites that offer Virtual private servers such as 4everproxy generate their revenue from ads. Those ads are not always family-friendly.
