A Brief Introduction to this Page's Purpose

Not Another Dime! is dedicated to documenting the assorted, and sometimes wild, details of Mr. Ken Whitman's business dealings within the Role Playing Game (RPG) industry. This place is NOT intended to be a medium of discussion about Mr. Whitman, pro or con, but instead be a "jumping off" point to enable the reader to make their own informed decision about Mr. Whitman's history and business character. (Editor's Note: After years of this documentation, we simply cannot be anything BUT "con" when it comes to Mr. Whitman)

Whenever possible, links to the original source material will be provided, but in many cases that information may have been deleted or secured behind restricted-access (like a private Facebook page) accounts.

Anything posted here is the opinion of the retrospective author and any content shown is to be considered "fair use" and posted for educational purposes only.

Note to authors: Please begin each post with the original date of the event being documented in the format of YYYY.MM.DD (i.e. If the event being recorded happened on March 15th, 2015 and today's date was August 8th, 2018 the beginning of the post's title would be 2015.03.15 and not 2018.08.08) so readers can use the Chronology page to find specific information. Please use appropriate tags when possible for the same reason.

Note to contributors: If you have some valid data to send, screenshots, links to other Ken Whitman stories, etc., please feel free to send a gmail to notanotherdimeblog. We'll look into it and post if appropriate.

2017.01.011 Ken "Whit" Whitman Will Teach You How to Stand Around for $35

2011.01.011 Ken "Whit" Whitman Will Teach You How to Stand Around for $35
We think most of our readers would have a wide array of rather descriptive adjectives to describe Ken "Whit" Whitman, but "Expert" and "Actor", much less "Expert Actor" would be pretty far down the list.

Nevertheless, our main-man Ken "Whit" Whitman is again trying to sell his services as a consultant for folks wanting to become actors.

"Whit will guid you through the process of becoming a paid film actor. Showing you the ins-and-outs and dos-and-donts on getting started down this road. The class will help you understand the process of acting in front of the camera, and will expedite your ability to get an agent. Cost: $35 a class. 

 About Whit Whitman: Whit Whitman has acted in the Walking Dead, Marvel Powers, and the new Tupac Movie releasing this summer."

A quick check of Ken "Whit" Whitman's IMDB page doesn't even list the Walking Dead and Marvel Powers, and "Marvel Powers" isn't even a thing according to a quick web search and IMDB check. It is interesting though that Kenny lists himself as a stand-in for Dywane Johnson. Let that sink in....

...not "Dwayne Johnson", but "Dywane Johnson".

Of course that seems legit, and we do have some evidence of the Walking Dead work, but basically this means most of Ken "Whit" Whitman's "experience" as an actor is literally just standing around. So, for $35 you too can learn the art of standing around.

2017.01.19 Update
A reader of NAD sent us this gem, with a bit of an explanation of the Marvel Powers being a low-budget show on a rather small viewing platform that didn't get much traction.

    FWIW, Marvel Powers is a thing. It was actually truncated to "Powers" when it aired and was PSN's first scripted original programming. It's not very good.

      Actually, it was never "Marvel Powers," it was always just "Powers." It's a comic published by Image Comics (not Marvel). I've heard the show wasn't great, but the comic is fantastic.

      Ken has been bragging about his gig in "Marvel Powers" since he moved to Atlanta, and I've called him out several times on it, but he continues to just copy and paste the same mistake about his own resume - about a gig that apparently is legit, just not by that name.

      I stand corrected. Regardless, yes, it's real. And, yes, it's pretty awful.

    Ken is credited as "prison inmate" in "All Eyez on Me" (Benny Boom, dir.)
