S4 Ep13: The Hoover Free Flights Fiasco - 1992
It's 1992, and the Hoover Suction Sweeper Company are about to launch a sales promotion that sucks harder than its Turbo-Power-Total vacuum cleaner.
In what superstitious people still refuse to acknowledge is the 13th episode of the CB Wallop Podcast, join Phil Jerrod and Phil Lucas as they discuss The Hoover Free Flights Fiasco - the insane sales promotion that sold thousands of vacuum cleaners to newly weds, disgruntled millions of consumers and ultimately led to the wholly unnecessary kidnapping of an innocent van.
Did the kids get to go to Disneyland? no… no they did not.
*Trigger Warning - This episode contains lots more swearing, even than usual, some potentially slanderous accusations thrown at an innocent pressure group and the deployment of some very dodgy cockney accents. Listener discretion is advised. *
