This man is the reason I know Australian Dream idn't greazy

As an Australian, I have no idea wtf you're talking about... or who this guy is, but he has suuuuper shady televangelist vibes - I assume he was a massive piece of shit, and likely sex pest - unless anyone is going to tell me otherwise?

Don't know about sex pest, but... probably. He was a game show host, with his most notable role being the host of "Wheel of Fortune". He was the original host, so that goes back to the 70s.

Anyways, as others have pointed out, he was a dyed-in-the-wool MAGAt. So not exactly a tear-jerking moment, his passing.

Oh, Australian Dream is just an anti arthritis cream that he was a spokesman for years ago. He did an ad read where he says greasy with a 'z' and some fans of a podcast that used to be good remixed it into a song. I can't find the song but here's the original audio. I'm not surprised you don't know this reference to a decade old ad read lol
