00:14Hey, look, I made some ambrosia for you. But Anson Williams, who played Potsy on Happy Days,
00:21is running. He announced his candidacy for the mayoral seat of Oh, hi, California. It is
00:28conceivable that blood pumping so long will be the new presidential anthem when he becomes
00:35elected. Of Oh, hi, California. Oh, when he becomes president of the United States. Oh, hi,
00:39pump your blood. So. Oh, hi, pump your blood. That could work. The right atrium's where the
00:53process begins. I mean, I love this episode. I just thought I'd say one. No, stop it. Is
01:01it because the song? Yeah. How could you not elect him as mayor? So the reason for the song
01:10is that the only way, the only, the only smarts that Potsy had was music because he was a singer
01:15and a terrible singer and he, uh, he had a decent voice. Uh, so he, the only way he could remember
01:22things for his, uh, this test, he had to take this anatomy test was to write a song about it.
01:27And that's how he did it. He passed the test. Uh, listen, this is, this is not the first time
01:31like a Fred Grandy from the love boat. Well, I have a list actually here, uh, Steve, if you
01:36like. Yeah, please. So president Ronald Reagan. That's right. Yeah. The actor. I was in a number
01:42of films and it wasn't on happy days though. No, I was supposed to play leather Tuscadero's
01:48dry cleaner. You lost that part, huh? I lost it. Can I get a sit on it? Cause everybody
01:54sit on it, Potsy. There you go. I still got it. Hey, you're doing all the catchphrases.
02:01Hey, by the way. Hey, bucko. Hey, bucko. Um, what were you, when they said sit on it, sit
02:08on what? Their genitals. That's what it means. Their genitals.
02:12That's what I assumed. I'm sorry. What? Their aroused genitals. Sit on it. You got
02:24about, you got a short window here. I'm in my seventies. Yeah. Casey, it was, it was a
02:32roundabout way. Yeah. Uh, to say that, you know, without being vulgar. That's what, uh,
02:37that's why it seemed so edgy at the time. So you had sit on it. Nibble on my bag. That
02:44was my catchphrase. Hey, Mr. C, nibble on my bag. Why don't you grab a quick nibble on
02:50my bag? Oh dear. Hey. Hey. All right, Casey, go through all the, all the catchphrases from
03:00the cast members at, uh, I still got it as Ralph Mouth. Yeah. Uh, sit on it. Uh, everybody

03:32was a, which she'd be, Joni would be sit on it as well. Yep. And Mr. C had to have
03:37have one. Nibble my bag. Nibble my bag. Both he and Reagan used that. All right. Well,
03:41anyway, uh, Potsy's running for mayor, uh, and he will be running against Ojai's current
03:47mayor, Betsy Sticks. Other candidates have to. Betsy Sticks? Until mid-July to enter the
03:51race. Wasn't there a character on Happy Days named Sticks? I don't know. Remember he was
03:55the, the, the, the black drummer and, and, uh, they were going to have a welcome Hawaii to
04:00the union party and people weren't going to attend because they're a racist. Oh, really?
04:05Until Ponzi stood up. Was that a one, one off episode character?
04:08Sticks? One or two episodes. A couple episodes maybe? Yeah. Yes. Uh, you know who'd know
04:11that? Craig Legans. Uh, so other William, although Williams announces candidacy to the Ojai community
04:18is yet to announce it via social media, but Henry Winkler, uh, has endorsed his old pal

04:29conclusion of Happy Days, Williams went on to act, produce, and direct many shows and films,

04:37Beverly Hills, 90210, and several others. There we go. Preston's up on the screen. The, uh,
