It's probably a reference to someone but I'm not up enough on my late 80s infomercial personalities to recognize it. Maybe submit a question during the next Mads Are Back stream?

I’ve never seen all the turkey day sketches back to back and it’s certainly something different.

I like the Turkey Day stream, and I love the poopie segments and other stuff I have never seen, but it's a bummer it's the original unedited stream, which means all the episodes are split by those "we'll be right back" ad breaks, with the original horribly edited sound, popping sounds etc.

It seems vaguely familiar to me. The early 90s was the golden age of infomercials, so there were a lot out there. No superstars on the level of the late Billy Mays that I can remember.

Even Google is turning up nothing. The video in question is the "Poopie Parade of Values", and many websites note that Trace has an "atrociously bad Australian accent" but nobody has explained it.

It's definitely a reference to a specific pitchman (who may have been either British or Australian) but couldn't tell you specifically who anymore. I'm pretty sure Bob Odenkirk was imitating the same guy in the Mr. Show "Superpan" sketch. Oh, there was also Jacko, an Australian guy who achieved minor fame in the 80s for doing irritating ads for Energizer batteries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvHtKcS1POk usenet celeb 1992 fucked around with this message at 14:26 on May 5, 2024 |

I don't know if Crow's impression is based on anything specific, but in the late 1980s and early 90s, infomercials usually had an American host with a (sometimes foreign) expert who'd come out to explain the product. It was the inspiration for Troy McClure and Nick Riviera on The Simpsons. Probably the best known infomercial was Amazing Discoveries with host Mike Levy (whose penchant for sweaters inspired McClure); it had a couple of British experts but I don't know about any Australians.

Just because you show me a projector doesn't mean I'm convinced there's a projected man! I was playing Animal Crossing today and went looking and found that someone has made the JOIKE sweater GPC made for Mike back in the day

RIP Edgar Lansbury: He was Angela's brother and a Tony-winning Broadway producer. Then for some reason he also produced Squirm. Also RIP Bernard Hill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0XeDxR5qdM&t=805s

Figuring out that Outlaw was the work of the biotruths *whipcrack* guy was a huge mindfuck for me circa 2009. I guess nerds knew about Gor way before that and probably way before that episode.

I tried to find out more about whatever the gently caress it was supposed to be about, and because Wikipedia didn't exist in the late 90s I found myself looking down a rabbit hole of early internet weirdies. I decided that I didn't really want to learn any more, which since I was like twelve at the time was probably for the best.

Watley being a creep at the end aside Outlaw is a pretty sanitized version of Gor.

I'm sure the producers just wanted a hot property to make a Conan clone with and dgaf.
