Anti-Monkey Butt Powder was recently mentioned on the Chicago radio show Don Wade And Roma. Below is transcript of the program in question:
BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
DON WADE, co-host:
Yeah, monkey butt powder, or Anti-Monkey Butt Powder. I don't understand what this is about. It's four
minutes to 7:00.
ROMA WADE, co-host
I can't explain it.
I guess it's a great Christmas present.
ROMA WADE:
They advertised Anti-Monkey Butt Powder on a roadside sign in front of the Feed and
Seed store.
DON WADE: Yeah.
ROMA WADE: And everybody stopped to ask questions. They all think it's for a monkey, but the owner
and the owner's son say it's not for a monkey, it's for sweat.
DON WADE: Sweat.
ROMA WADE: Sweat and the frictional skin, the irritation that people experience when they ride for
hours. If your butt's so sore you have to walk bow-legged like a monkey, then you have monkey butt.
DON WADE: You mean people who ride horses get monkey butt?
ROMA WADE: Well, I think it's probably for horses, but who knows. And he's been stocking this powder
at Malone's Feed and Seed for more than a year and a huge number of people buy the six ounce bottle
featuring a grinning monkey flashing a thumb's up as a gag gift for Christmas. Now, if you can't afford
other things, these--
DON WADE: That's better than an oven mitt.
ROMA WADE: It's $6.95--that's all they charge. And you can stock people's stockings with monkey butt.
Anti-Monkey Butt.
DON WADE: Stuff people's stockings with Anti-Monkey Butt Powder. Terrific.
ROMA WADE: And if skateboarder's chafe--I mean, they say that kids need it because of tight pants and,
you know, skateboarding.
DON WADE: You need crack cream, and Anti-Monkey Butt Powder. That's great.
