Total Dismay

Pretending to be American

Posted in Television, John Roberts by totaldis on the July 30th, 2007

This 1984 video is embarrassingly bad. I have to post it because it features J. D. Roberts, a hip personality on Canadian television, interviewing Nash the Slash, a flash in the pan oddity who was, at the time, pretending to be American. Actually he was pretending to be running for President or something. Save yourself some agony and start watching at the halfway mark.

Nash the Slash is content to be a local artsy weirdo in Ontario. He makes an appearance in a movie I would highly recommend. It is called Roadkill.

J. D. Roberts eventually lands a sweet job in the promised land of America. Somewhere along the way, he decides to go by John Roberts.
