Welcome back to the show.
When I mention things like the wheel,
the light bulb, and the smartphone,
I'm not just talking about things that are
fun to throw at your enemies from a distance,
I'm talking about products that have
changed the way we live our everyday lives
and you're in luck because we found a new one.
That's right, it is time for...
And today's product, I am especially excited about,
it is the Sock Sliders.
You have to see these things to understand what they are.
Let's watch the video.
- Narrator:
you strain, you're so far away.
Just bending over to put on your socks
-
Well, not anymore.
Introducing Sock Slider, the pain-free,
no-bend-over way to comfortably put on
your socks every day.
Just place your sock on the cradle,
lower the cradle to the floor
and slide your foot in. It's that easy.
Sock Slider puts the socks on for you.
So bending over is something you never have to do.
Dress socks, casual, athletic, medical,
or compression, all your favorite socks
can be put on without frustration.
Wow, without frustration.
Bending over is something you never have to do.
I gotta say, those people made
putting on socks look more frustrating
than I've ever experienced.
( groans )
- Very dramatized. - Yes.
If only we had Sock Sliders to test ourselves.
Hmm.
( chime )
- Oh, lookie there! - Oh, we do have some Sock Sliders.
And you've still got hobbit feet.
- Link: Every day, all day. - Rhett: Those are gross.
Okay, let me bend over in order to pick up--
Well, here's what I will say.
As a person who has had some back issues,
there have been times where I had some trouble
getting my socks on.
I caught one.
I've had to do some weird things like this,
like get my foot up like this.
That's my technique when my back is hurt,
is to get my leg up here on my other leg.
- Uh-huh. - But maybe those days are gonna change
with the Sock Slider.
$20 might be the key you've been looking for, Rhett.
You do both at the same time?
- Probably not. - Like pants?
I've never done this.
So you want to hook on there.
Just get right in there. And then you just...
wah-pow!
Puts the sock on for you.
Didn't quite get all the way in.
I think you got a little too overzealous.
- Let me try one. - Okay.
Here we go. I'm gonna--
- Rhett: Boy, yeah, cover that foot up, please. - I think the key is
you really gotta... you really gotta
get your toe down in the bottom
before you start pushing.
You gotta get toe contact.
Oh, I got, I got it.
- And then wah-pow. - Whoops.
Oh, gosh, you just broke it.
I just lost the-- I lost the back of the thingy.
That's when you get a buddy.
Use my other foot.
Hold it down in my buddy.
You call your foot your buddy?
Oh, that's a satisfying moment.
Wow.
But how you gonna deal with that?
- Well, that's because... - You gotta get...
If I had this on it-- here, I'll try with this.
No, but look, I did the same thing, see, look.
I'm gonna go slow.
Gonna get it in there.
Your toes aren't in the end.
You've already--
No, but they'll work.
Whoa, you have to, all right, let me--
But I can't-- the top is the difficult part.
But maybe I'll just start rolling my socks down.
Toes are in, and then I'm gonna push real hard down there.
There's a hole in the bottom that my heel's stuck in.
Come on. Come to Papa.
All the way up.
Perfect this time.
- Whoop! Oh! - Nope.
- Very close, though. - It cannot be done.
Okay, so this is pretty fun with socks,
but why stop with socks?
Introducing, the Pants Plummet
because if you can slide into your socks,
why can't you slide into your pants?
That's what these two slides are for.
But, Rhett, we already have on our pants.
Oh, we can take care of that.
( chime )
- Ew, a little bit of a draft all of a sudden. - Hey.
Now we are guessing that the Pants Plummet
works best with sweat pants.
Well, let's find out.
All right.
Make your way to the top.
- Mm-hmm. - It's like two divers
going into some kind of competition.
Sit down.
Let's see, now your legs are longer than mine
so you can go ahead and start flirting
with the top edge of your sweatpants.
I just want to make sure I don't take the pants
all the way down the slide.
I gotta get my feet in there is what I'm talking about.
Whenever we were playing a tough team,
my soccer coach would say,
"Boys, they put their pants on one leg at a time
just like you do."
The Rum Bros.
But now we're opening up a whole new world
of putting on your pants two legs at a time.
That's right. The Pants Plummet,
for all those times that you're not wearing pants at the playground.
The Pants Plummet, fits conveniently under your bed.
Uh, probably not.
Okay, you ready?
Just on the count of three we do it.
Both: Three, two, one.
