short films, music videos, investigative-science segments, guest lectures, sketches, unfinished films, or other films that deserve to be seen but may not have been seen elsewhere.
Wholphin is a new quarterly DVD magazine from McSweeney's, lovingly encoded with unique and ponderable films designed to make you feel the way we felt when we learned that dolphins and whales sometimes, you know, do it.
Available immediately by subscription and distributed quarterly in the same places you'll find McSweeney's and The Believer, each issue of Wholphin will contain a variety of extraordinary short films, docs, instructional videos, foreign sitcoms, and other cinema hybrids that deserve to be seen on very expensive televisions.

A brilliant collection of absolutely fascinating material! Terrific menu screens! Wonderfully produced package, too! A friend loaned me #2 and #3, next week I'm subscribing!
