• 0:07
  SPEAKER_03: Hey Kelly, what's up?
• 0:09
  SPEAKER_03: Oh man, I was just thinking about doing a dead end.
• 0:12
  SPEAKER_03: Let's do it.
• 0:13
  SPEAKER_03: You down?
• 0:14
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, let's do it.
• 0:15
  SPEAKER_03: For the people that don't know, dead ends are our episodes about things that were once popular but don't really exist anymore.
• 0:22
  SPEAKER_03: Maybe they do, but they're just not as popular as they used to be.
• 0:24
  SPEAKER_03: We've done some really great ones, but today I've got one that is interesting because it follows a theme.
• 0:32
  SPEAKER_03: So recently I did an episode about Ron Popeel.
• 0:36
  SPEAKER_03: And this episode is about something that maybe Ron Popeel would have been involved with, but he actually wasn't.
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_03: It was it was a different group that was um involved.
• 0:48
  SPEAKER_03: But where I think it's really interesting is the the product name was two words that you wouldn't think of going together, but actually just now that once you put them together, they just fit.
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_03: You know how that is?
• 1:02
  SPEAKER_03: Sometimes you just have two words that are oh yeah, magic.
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:06
  SPEAKER_03: So this was something that um Ronco wasn't involved in, but it was invented in Germany in the 70s, and it was originally called the cultivator with a K, like German style.
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_03: And it was a hand tool used for loosening and aerating soil without bending over.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 1:27
  SPEAKER_03: You heard of this?
• 1:28
  SPEAKER_03: The cultivator?
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_04: No, never heard of that.
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_03: Well, it's also known as the garden weasel.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, the garden.
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_04: You'd think that the German version would be the garden weasel.
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_04: You would have weasels in Germany?
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah, there's weasels everywhere.
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_03: I'm looking at one.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_03: So so they picked, um, they they rebranded it.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_03: It was uh company in the US called General Tools and Instruments that um that kind of took the German invention and brought it over here.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_03: And guess how they sold it?
• 2:01
  SPEAKER_03: Direct response TV commercials during the 70s and 80s.
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_03: There you go.
• 2:05
  SPEAKER_03: As seen on TV, the thing that uh Ronco and Ron Popeel made popular, they were doing it.
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_03: Now they rebranded as the Garden Weasel, and they took the name.
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_03: Now, can you imagine what this thing looks like, the Garden Weasel or the Cultivator?
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_04: I I think it's very medieval looking, right?
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_04: Has a lot of spikes on it.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, yes.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_03: It was um it was a handle with uh spikes on wheels, metal spikes on wheels, and they were very medieval looking, yes.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_03: I mean it could have been a weapon during that time, and they were used to aerate soil.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_03: So you could you could roll it over, it would go exactly two inches into the ground, which is optimal, um, because what that does is it churns up the soil, it pulls up weeds and puts the weeds back into the dirt to become organic matter, but it also protects the roots of plants.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_03: So if you're going around plants, like if you have a garden and you're using the garden weasel around them, you wouldn't um disturb the roots of the existing plants.
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_04: So it's just for aerating, it's not for digging a ditch or anything like that.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_03: It's just for it's okay.
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_03: You're just aerating, is all you're doing.
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_03: And I suppose, you know, if you wanted to dig a ditch, it might make it easier.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_03: Like if you started with that and then went back with a shovel, you know, make those first two inches of soil a little easier.
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_03: But what was kind of cool about it was the wheels were um uh changeable.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_03: You could do a four-wheel configuration, you could do a two-wheel configuration on the outside where if you needed to roll over a plant, you could actually roll over it because the two in the center would come out, or you could do a one-wheel configuration in a tight space.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, it's kind of it was very versatile.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_03: Did you have one?
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_03: Did your dad have one?
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_03: No, we did not have a garden.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_03: We my my parents didn't really give much of a uh darn about their yard.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_03: I was the only one in our family that actually gave a darn.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_03: I would mow it.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_03: And you know, most most parents I think would um would get on to their sons or children about taking care of the yard.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_03: You need to mow, you need to edge, you need to weed whack or whatever.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_03: I was the one that was always doing that.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_03: Like my parents, it could be up to our knees and they wouldn't care, you know.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_03: I I was more I was more like worried about what the neighbors thought if we didn't do it, which got it.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, kind of weird.
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_03: Um, anyway, they they um rebranded it.
• 4:28
  SPEAKER_03: It was something that was uh popular on TV throughout the 70s and 80s.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_03: It was the as seen on TV model.
• 4:36
  SPEAKER_03: So, you know, at first you could only get it directly from TV commercials with a phone number, and then after that, they packaged it and sold it in stores and had the as seen on TV label put on it.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_03: And I want to play you the commercial for the garden weasel.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_03: You want to hear it?
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_01: Sure.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_01: Hi, I'm Jim Martindale, and I'd like to introduce you to the garden weasel.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_01: It's a five-in-one tool that makes gardening fun and easy.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_01: The garden weasel's three rotary blades mesh with a scissor action, breaking up the topsoil.
• 5:04
  SPEAKER_01: They uproot young weeds before they get a start and mix the leaves and weeds into the soil, and that's a mulch, and that's beneficial to your garden.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_01: The weasel cultivates to a uniform two-inch depth, protecting your plant's roots.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_01: Remove the center blade for cultivating around seedling rows and young bedding plants and vegetables.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_01: Use one blade for those hard-to-reach areas.
• 5:23
  SPEAKER_01: Insert the shorthandle, and the weasel is perfect for plant boxes and greenhouses.
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_01: But garden weasel is made of a rough free alloy that's virtually self-cleaning.
• 5:31
  SPEAKER_01: Simply hose it off and allow it to dry.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_01: If you have a friend who's into gardening like I am, a garden weasel makes a perfect gift.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_01: Look for this display.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_00: Garden Weasel is available at Sears, Eaton's, Towers, Wolco, Canadian Tire, Beaver Lumber, and Participating Pro and Home Hardware Store.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_00: A great gift for mom.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_04: Similar to Rumpel Peel, although a little more technical.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_04: And didn't didn't introduce the problem.
• 6:00
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, there wasn't any sort of like, oh my god, the weeds are taking over, kind of thing.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_03: Right, right, exactly.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_03: And I think I was wrong what I said earlier about four wheels.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_03: It was three wheels, which makes sense, you know.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_03: But it was a five in one tool.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, five in one tool.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_03: So I suppose um aerating uh for gardens, like I don't know, beating your dog, um, getting things down out of trees.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_03: Uh I don't know.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know what the other things were.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_03: The five that's a stretch, the five and one.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_03: So this was a big trend back there.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_03: And if you haven't listened to our episode about Ron Popeel, the master of infomercials, please go back and do it.
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_03: Um the Garden Weasel is still sold today by but it's a different company.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_03: It's called the Faultless Starch Bon Ami Company.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_03: And I don't even know if it's still called the Garden Weasel, but and this is not a Garden Weasel commercial right now, what we're doing.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_03: There's no more, there's no more commercials like there were back then.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_04: I'm saying you're not doing one right now.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_04: You're not being paid by you're not being paid by Garden Weasel.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_03: Garden Weasel is nothing to do with this.
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_03: They're probably mad actually if they learned about this.
• 7:07
  SPEAKER_03: So don't tell them.
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_03: But I want to I want to talk to you about some of the other really popular infomercial um products that came out.
• 7:15
  SPEAKER_03: Like, do you remember any like what are some that come to mind when you think of infomercials?
• 7:21
  SPEAKER_03: Didn't we just do this?
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_04: So you want me to name all the ones that I just learned about on the other episode?
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_04: No, no.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_04: I want you to like the George Foreman Grill, that was another episode.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, yes, George Foreman Grill is is exactly one of them.
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_03: And Mr.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_03: Microphone?
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_03: Mr.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_03: Microphone, okay.
• 7:41
  SPEAKER_03: Well, well, I want to take you through some that weren't Ronco products necessarily.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_03: So Mr.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_03: Microphone was a Ronco product, but do you remember Nutra System?
• 7:49
  SPEAKER_03: Where Marie Osman, she lost a lot of weight, and she would talk about it.
• 7:53
  SPEAKER_03: Well, that was an infomercial.
• 7:55
  SPEAKER_03: That was that was uh something they're valued at over a billion dollars.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_04: Nutra system you know what Nutra System would do too is they would, I thought this was genius, is they would get a lot of like radio DJs to go on it.
• 8:11
  SPEAKER_04: Now, the genius part about that is you've got guys and women that have time to talk about it, right?
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_04: They're getting paid to talk about it, it's not part of a paid thing, they're talking about it in their general banter, right?
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_04: Because they're using it, but you can't see them, you don't even know what they look like.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_04: You don't know if they've lost weight or gained weight, so you just kind of have to take their word for it.
• 8:32
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_04: But it's not as accountable as like a TV person would be.
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely.
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_03: No, I I hadn't really thought about that, but that is smart that Nutra System did that.
• 8:42
  SPEAKER_03: I I do remember several DJs who did that.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_03: I don't remember their names, but I remember you know, like Crash Kelly or uh sure maybe uh Dave.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_03: What what was what was Moby?
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_03: Remember Moby in the morning in Houston?
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_03: Um no, what was the guy's name?
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_03: Uh there was Garth Hemp in Houston.
• 9:01
  SPEAKER_03: Stevens and Pruitt.
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_03: Stevens and Pruitt, yeah.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_03: Um yeah, yeah, they were originally Stevens and Pruitt originally Hudson and Harrigan.
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_03: And then they became Stevens and Pruitt.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_03: Um, well, so you mentioned the George Foreman grill.
• 9:14
  SPEAKER_03: Great example.
• 9:15
  SPEAKER_03: Sold, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of uh these grills.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_03: But do you remember the Snuggy?
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, yeah, that wasn't not long ago.
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_03: That was like within the last 20 years, wasn't it?
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_03: 2013, yep, 500 million dollars in sales uh as of 2013.
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_03: And they they were basic it was just basically a blanket with sleeves, right?
• 9:39
  SPEAKER_03: But advertised it.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_03: And then then the slank slink it came out as their competitor.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_03: I didn't remember the slank it.
• 9:47
  SPEAKER_03: I don't remember that one.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_04: Slank it.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_03: Well, there was um some some things that were more like uh fitness oriented, like P90X.
• 9:57
  SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, oh yeah.
• 9:58
  SPEAKER_04: That was another one I think that radio DJs got into.
• 10:01
  SPEAKER_04: P90X, yeah.
• 10:02
  SPEAKER_03: It was a workout thing.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_03: Apparently, that one was kind of a flop the first time they tried the infomercial and they refined it and refined it, and it finally took off.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_04: But um, like I think the idea behind that was they in 90 days you could get like super buff in 90 days if you just followed this 90 minutes a day thing.
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_04: Well, that's a lot of that's a lot of commitment.
• 10:23
  SPEAKER_04: 90 minutes a day for 90 days is kind of a lot.
• 10:26
  SPEAKER_03: It is, but I mean, obviously it worked and people were making a lot of money on it.
• 10:31
  SPEAKER_04: But you shouldn't have to pay money for that.
• 10:33
  SPEAKER_04: Like you if you just exercise 90 minutes a day for 90 days, if you just went for a walk for 90 minutes a day for 90 days, you probably see results.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_03: P P90X was that really kind of hardcore hit circuit, you know, like jumping up and down and spinning all around.
• 10:48
  SPEAKER_03: I think it was CDs or DVDs that you put on the TV.
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_03: Um, there were a few other that were related to um health as well and fitness.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_03: The bow flex that was as seen on TV.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_03: It was kind of a like a weight system that used these bands or bow bows.
• 11:05
  SPEAKER_03: There was the Thighmaster.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_03: Remember Suzanne Summers in the Thighmaster?
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_04: Uh she made a lot of money off of that.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, she she she was great in that.
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_03: Um, there was the Total Gym, that was another thing that actually started off as something that was used in rehab centers, but went to TV audiences and took off.
• 11:23
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, but I do remember Boflex was huge.
• 11:26
  SPEAKER_04: Boflex, yeah.
• 11:27
  SPEAKER_04: The thing is, though, that once you get to Boflex, nobody has like, if you think about the ad, nobody has a room like that in their house.
• 11:37
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_04: It's just like no no carpet, like no wood, it's just like some magic flooring that all this stuff works in, and you have lots of room to put everything and nothing else there.
• 11:49
  SPEAKER_04: And then you get it in your house, you where am I gonna put this?
• 11:52
  SPEAKER_03: That's right, that's right.
• 11:54
  SPEAKER_03: It was it was definitely uh one of those things that was bigger than it looked on TV.
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_04: It took a lot of space, I think.
• 11:59
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 12:00
  SPEAKER_03: So a couple of other um, you know, sold-on TV things.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_03: The slender tone, do you remember this?
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_03: It was uh it was to get the washboard abs, and it was basically just an electronic thing that would stimulate your stomach muscles.
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_03: You didn't even exercise, you just put it on, and it would run a current through them and make them flex and supposed to give you ab muscles.
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_04: The one I like now is the one where you put it at your feet and you like um supposed you know which one I'm talking about, yeah.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_03: And it kind of pulls your legs back and forth.
• 12:33
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_03: I think that's more for mobility for old people.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_03: That's not really a muscle thing, but a couple of other fitness ones, sweat into the oldies.
• 12:42
  SPEAKER_03: That was told on TV.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_03: I think it was a VHS tape.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_03: And you remember who it was?
• 12:47
  SPEAKER_03: Sweat into the oldies, Richard Simmons.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, dance your pants off, party.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_03: I'm sure.
• 12:58
  SPEAKER_03: Party off the pounds, platinum sweat.
• 13:00
  SPEAKER_03: That was he had all those songs.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_04: People make a lot of money off of this stuff.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_04: All right.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_03: Well, here's one.
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_04: What are we doing?
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_04: What are we doing?
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_04: Why can't we do this?
• 13:09
  SPEAKER_03: This might have been the dumbest invention ever, but it sold um like made forty million dollars in its second or third year.
• 13:17
  SPEAKER_03: The shake weight.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_04: No, yeah.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_04: I think the reason that made so much money is the people were buying them as gag gifts.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_03: Right, right.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_03: It was uh it was innuendo, sexual innuendo associated with the way you used it.
• 13:34
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, the shake weight.
• 13:35
  SPEAKER_03: But I think I think they did that on purpose in the commercials.
• 13:38
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, absolutely.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_04: They those were more late night commercials, not daytime commercials.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_03: Right, right.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_03: There was uh also the neutra bullet.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_03: That was another thing that was kind of a thing that was used, it was basically just a blender that could extract things, juices, and stuff like that.
• 13:55
  SPEAKER_04: I have one of the bullet blenders, yeah.
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_04: But um, you put it, it has the own little car.
• 14:02
  SPEAKER_03: It has the cap and you and you twist it and it locks.
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah, those are great, actually.
• 14:05
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I have one of those.
• 14:07
  SPEAKER_03: There, then there were also a few things that were not um not necessarily health related, but um you might remember the pet egg.
• 14:18
  SPEAKER_03: Do you remember the ped egg?
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_03: No, is it like a pet rock?
• 14:21
  SPEAKER_03: No, ped PED.
