Could a mascot really tank a fast food franchise? Some of the weirdest jobs ever, including ones you can apply for today. The parody stickers Gen-X kids loved.
Episode 147 starts June off with some fun and unusual nostalgia.
Some advertising mascots become iconic. They seep into the very fabric of our consciousness. Then there's Mr. Delicious. An attempt at an 'adult' mascot for an 'adult' fast food chain, Mr. Delicious was one part ingenious and one part mind-numbingly ridiculous. The fate of Rax Roast Beef depended on its success so we'll dive into just who Mr. Delicious was thanks to a short documentary created by Rax in 1992.
Weird is in the eye of the beholder. When it comes to weird jobs most people's opinions will differ. In this week's Top 5, however, most will agree that these jobs are different from the average 9 to 5. Some are lost to history while others you could actually apply for today.
Gen-X kids likely have fond memories of collecting and sharing Wacky Packages stickers. For those unfamiliar they were, and still are, well-crafted parodies of popular products. We're going to go way Back In the Day to reminisce about Wacky Packages and just what made them so popular with '70s and '80s kids.
There will be a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule centered around the retirement of the Great Bambino, the Sultan of Swat, 20th-century icon Babe Ruth.
