    So I need some help guys

    As many of you know, I own a firearms retail store. We are moving to a larger retail space sometime in August and the new retail space will have a lounge area for customers to hang out, play with demo training units, get a soda or water etc

    We have a large TV for the area but I don't know what to have on during the day

    We have a wide demographic of people so the news/political stuff is off limits

    Looking for maybe a channel or app that we can play...or something like that

    Ideas?

    is this gonna be background entertainment? or will you have sound on for people to hear whatevers going on in the program?

    If the latter, demolition ranch would be a cool youtube channel to stream, or similar

    if the former, can't suggest any specific channels/videos, but maybe something that goes over visual breakdown of a bunch of different guns, or one that covers ballistics of ammo types? hunting/skinning/field prep videos?

    or maybe go with the more comprehensive options presented above lol

    Outdoor tv or other hunting shows is probably the most agreeable content for an all inclusive population.

    Warrior Poet Society, etc is good if your demographic is primarily tactical/tacticool.

    PSYOPS: find some pro 2nd amendment content that's not political but at the same time causes the viewer to apply some critical thinking on 2A issues. Basically red pill the viewer without them even ürealizing it.

    Your a Gun Shop don't be afraid to take a stand on 2A issues.

    Itd have to be really short and concentrated. Most people arent gonna be standing in front of the tube digesting a long form point. They're gonna hear it in the background while waiting for their 4473 to clear NICS.

    Honestly, expecting the average person to engage their brain at all is a lot to ask these days.

    "Haha, shiny new pew go brrr"

    If you don't want a cable/satellite bill try DVD box sets like MASH, WW1/2 in color, war documentaries, ETC. Depending on the age of customers, maybe box sets of classic '80s shows like Airwolf, Tour of Duty, Magnum PI, A Team, Fall Guy, etc. Amazon has a plethora of all these. Something with a lot of action and you can watch 10-20 minutes of it while waiting and leave with a smile.

    You should only need a 2 hr loop or so, right? Folks won't hang out that long.

    Do your vendors have videos of their products?

    Something that doesn’t annoy the living piss out of you and your staff is my first thought. I worked retail for about 15 years and nothing was worse than having the same crap video or audio on repeat shoved in to your ear hole. Every day. For your entire shift. Until you quit or die. I’ve been out of it for about 7 years and I’m only now just beginning to be able to listen to Christmas music again around the holidays.

    Outdoor channel would be my second thought.
