To go further down the Video Toaster rabbit hole, here is a video about the Newtek VT spokeswoman/technology evangelist Kiki Stockhammer. Kiki, in addition to being a valuable part of the Newtek brand and promotion also made her mark as the model for the iconic 'Kiki' transition wipes that the original and subsequent Video Toaster products featured.
