- This TV show concept was created by my brother John DiResta. John and my self made this pitch movie in the summer of 2004. This is a lifestyle we led on and off since we were in high school. After many pitch meetings with every network, over 6 years finally we sold the this idea to discovery network in 2010. The first and only season of 12 episodes aired in fall of 2011. discovery gave the series the new name Dirty Money.
During the production we had little to no contact with the people at discovery, and since production ended we never spoke to any one at the network. I mention this because many people ask me if there will be a season 2, Netflix, and many other questions I have no explanation for. This is why I came to youtube. This movie is the highest quality Quick Time I could find on a 10 year old computer, Thank you for watching!!!
This is the show pitch that Became DIRTY MONEY 12 episodes for discovery channel fall of 2011.
I know its not your thing anymore, but a true gem. How is John these days?
I really would like to see you and John continue the show. It's so inspirational, so funny.
Maybe a little much hassle in the dialogue at sales time. :P
Good Stuff! Man I wish they would bring this show back...
Hilarious. Love it.
DIRTY MONEY was the best show ever!
Was a great show, should have never been canceled.
This "format" is better than the Discovery's "format", looks more real. In Discovery... seems like is "arranged" or pre-maked...
You guys need to do more of these!
Haha, "How much you selling that chair for"
Love it!
Thanks for sharing Jimmy. Screw who ever said no to buying this show. Their lost. Real makers will never stop watching whatever you produce.
My wife and I caught Dirty Money on Netflix. We both loved the show and wanted more!
Very funny. My Grandpa did the same thing. He would get things from the trash and sell things. He never called things trash, he called it Merchandise!
I could watch these all day.
Jimmydiresta and John Diresta are the Best !!! I Miss the Dirty money show it was the best and most entertaining show on television !!! I will always support Jimmy DiResta he's a Awesome Artist Genius!!! and John DiResta is so dam cool and very gifted at selling and he's so dam funny !!
thank you thank you
I really enjoyed this. John cracks me up.
xo thank you !
I figured April would show up...LOL
I watched all 12 episodes of dirty money and enjoyed all of them
awesome!!!! i loved that show.. you need to bring it back!!
That was a great show!!! Should still be on!!!
Man I wish Dirty Money was still on. Loved that show.
Dirty Money Awesome Show, You guys should definitely get another season going, people might actually learn something from watching TV. We dont make good reality shows like that in the UK. Jimmy, John show us how its Done!
I miss Dirty Money. What a great show.
Jimmy Diresta looks like Johnny Knoxville
right? :D
You guys should just keep making this show, I would watch it every week. If you are already "finding, fixing, and selling" anyway, put it up.
Thanks for what you do.
I binge watched dirty money on Netflix and watched hammered on RUclips both shows were great I wish there was more!!!
Thanks for sharing Jim... now it all finally falls in place !
I was stuck in Seattle for 2 months of training back when it started airing, and this was the ONLY show my hotel TV was tuned to. SO pissed when I got back home to find out they cancelled it.
12/04/23 man I miss this show so much. Trash to cash was such a good premise I hope you and John get the chance to revisit this again or hammered.
The best show...better than the other Flea shows.
This was one of the most entertaining 11 minutes I've spent on RUclips!
Jimmy I would rather have you here on youtube then any tv network out there. At least here I know when and what time I can watch you build awesome stuff and not have to worry about you getting cancelled for no reason.
These days I don't think you need those networks on board, this would be an awesome YT hit on a weekly basis. I miss that show!!! :(
Awwww the good old days, thanks for sharing buddy,
many peoples here in my country tried to make money on fleas like you since 80th, they all ended up homeless, it seems like fleas only work in US and nowhere else. my father was and still is one of the best carpenters in my country, everything he makes is handmade, even the machines hes using are handmade by him, he made tons of decorations and ornaments. but with his talent he didnt manage to even earn decent income so he had to work other jobs and woodworking was only his hobby. if we were in US i bet i would be rich now.
I have 5 broken default drills, 1 three legged chair and a gold painted coat hanger. IS there potential?
I live in Russia. For the first time seeing this show, I fell in love with projects DiResta. Thank you for all the videos. Good luck in your new projects.
I am very glad I followers of the wonderful and fun for the program and we hope more sparkle
brings back tons of great Dirty Money memories Jimmy. Thanks for posting!!!
That was a fun watch. Funny to see that happen at the end with the chair. I'd love to see this show on tv again.
I miss that show.
when i got Netflix, i found this cool show in the description. when it said Diresta, i was like HOLY SH!T!!!! I wish they let you do more. my inspiration to get my own garage set up one day. thank you!
I'm sort of glad Discovery didn't continue the show. Now you make content how you want, when you want, directly to your target audience. I call that a win.
jimmydiresta I got an eviction notice when I was in college because of "Trash to Cash". I found an old bathtub and coffee maker and was going to turn it into a hot tub just like you did! LOL! Thanks for all the inspiration! At least I have a real place to make stuff now! We need more shows like this!
Loved that show! Pissed that it was taken off.
I remember this show. :-)
I think I watched them all not sure but I loved all. To bad its not on anymore great show so now I watch on U-Tube GREAT STILL. Keep it up PLEASE...
I love John and jimmy
The past weeks i've watched every episode of Dirty Money. Fantastic shows!! Ratboy never spoke but now he has his own youtube channel and he speaks!!
Funnier and more engaging than the discovery show. Thanks for posting.
You're the real deal John. Lol.....lol. You could sell sand to the Arabs! I mean seriously. I couldn't stop laughing!!! Caviar Cream.... what the hell is caviar cream?? Jimmy...you're just as bad! LOL! You could sell a plane with no wings as flight ready! I'd cross over to the other side of the road if I saw you coming John so didn't end up buying my own car from you. You guys kill me. LOL
Not Caviar. CAVEAT as is Caveat emptor which is Latin for "Let the buyer beware"
kerberos623 Watch the video. Caviar Cream is a new color defined by John DiResta.
peggyt1243 Hey. It sounds nicer than baby shit yella !
"If it breaks after that we don't give a fuck" Haha love it!
I miss this show. 😂
Very entertaining! Thanks for the pilot!
The best Tv Show 👍
Superb, bring it back!
До сих пор мое любимое шоу! Периодически перисматриваю.
I miss seeing the interactions between jimmy and john together on TV.
Pure genius! I love it!
Grew up this way, Dad's still a horse trader, can't get it out of his system. Once you start getting people to give you money for something you just trash picked it's addictive :)
Best thing I have ever seen
"Vacuum metalised plastic" brilliant, lol :^D
A slice of life.........loved Dirty Money, you guys were great, a new show would be right on time. Peace and love to the DiResta boys
really wish your show got more than 1 season, they played it a lot on Foxtel in Australia for years, sadly its been removed now and i can't watch it anymore but it was a great show
That is so fun. Thanks. Your videos are always great but this one is the tops.
Wow. Good on you guys for making a successful pitch to Discovery Channel. A feat within itself- regardless of it's longevity or lack of creator input. It's a vicious industry... kudos :-)
I'm guessing that this upload was possible after the contract time limit expired...ten years later....discovery never knew the jewel they had....it was a nice walk down memory lane... Thanks!!
The “sickness” is strong with these two
there's nothing better jimmy and john the best
Thumbs up! Saw the show on discovery as well.. Cheers!
you guys had the best shows ever!
Great video, Thanks! Daniel
John and Jimmy You Guys are awesome.
I can see that's funny money.
Thanks for the video, I loved it
John and Jimmy You Guys are awesome.
I can see thats funny money.
Thanks for the video, I loved it
This is HILARIOUS!!!
Although I did not understand half the words ...Dirty money, waiting for another season of these clips, good job, great geniuses Jimmy
Jimmy, Bring these videos back. Too funny!
Good to see this show reel
Ha, ha! I have one of those "boat shrines" on my wall. Don't know if I should admit that or not. :-)
Just love that show.. the brother of yours just never shut up.. :P
Jimmy my fav. piece you made was that that chevy bench with the lights.It was awesome ; I really enjoyed dirty money.
You know why it was canceled? Picking + fixing + selling = WORK. Not many people into working these days, lol
"Liberal Subaru" lol I died laughing. How's john doing these days jimmy?
Really enjoyed watching this one and it's neat that the series had the same vibe and didn't change it up that much. It seems like such a long arduous process to get a TV show started.
Love it! Boat shrine...
amazing vision for a show. I wish dirty money had more than one season, I loved it.
Yeah, I miss your brother John on the channel.
When I first found you, it was through one of your videos where there's a lot of high speed and little talking, and after I sub'd your channel, I searched youtube and found your shows, both of them, both of which I thought were great. Been watching John's (and Matt's) channels too, your brother is the funniest dude, it showed in the TV shows, and continues on his channel. Too bad they don't know what they're doing over there at Discovery, the channel is flush with boring shows, and with Mythbusters retired now, I don't even tune into it anymore. Love the direction your channel has taken in recent times, and although I didn't understand until recently why you posted old videos, I never much cared that you did, it's you're channel, you post what you post and I either watch it or don't (Nah, I watch them all), sometimes I'll revisit a build if I liked it when you post the old videos because I watch them on Make: and Core77 when they're released too.
Ahhhhhahahahahah.....Times like this I miss New York.
man jimmy i love you guys. I would love to come chill and work with you guys for a week end. Very very skilled craftsman my friend. Enjoy the vids! All of them. Just discovered you about a week ago and i have been binge watching the vids. Keep em coming. Peace!
I loved the show! I was looking for you guys at the flea markets last time I was there. lol!
that was awesome, would definitely watch if I could get hold of it in the UK. Thanks for sharing this dude :)
Hey Jimmy ! is there any chance of a new show with your brother and you doing this ? cuz you can be sure that a lot of people will enjoy it me included ! Keep the awesome work ! and know that you have a lot subscribers here in Brazil !
I like that... Very entertaining... U guys should make more like this.
Excellent! Thanks for digging this out. I'm sorry I never saw Dirty Money. Must have been an awesome show.
Checkout the direstafan-channel. They have all dirty-money-episodes and even "Hammered with Jimmy"...
Awesome, watched the whole series on youtube. I wish the series would come back! You are the Man, Jimmy Diresta!
thanks for sharing, great vid.
This is such an awsome video. I watched u guys on discovery all the time :)
please make a new dirty money season (and upload it here :D)
I've have found many things that don't deserve to be in the trash at my apartment complex ,
Dude this means a lot man, I've always wanted more of your stuff so seeing it in the comments and on your page is great, time to binge. :)
"When i was younger than todaaayyy..."
I really like Jimmy when you speaking. So much personal. Silent Jimmy is like the problems sitting in his face. Good video!
Where else can you find Caviar cream, Ivory willow, vaccu-metalized plastic from Catherine Scorsese's house (LOL), AND Captain Nappy all in one shot.
FUCKIN' GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!
I used to watch your show in The Netherlands loved it so much that I looked for you on youtube on since the show finished Im a sub
I love it!
Very nice and educational video! People have to learn that we can´t just throw it away something just because they are broken. This things can be fixed and used for a very long time. Proceding this way, we can save a lot of money and help the planet to be free of so much junk. What is junk for ones, it´s treasures for others. Thank you very much, guys.
