The show was aired on March 19, 2001.

"But first, this from Peenman Enterprises. And this is what we'd like to tell you:

Friends, should the Earth lose its gravity, are you prepared? In the unlikely but possible event that the Earth stops spinning (sound of a toilet flushing in the background), we could all be flung off into space and be disintegrated within moments. But the Peenman Enterprises Earth Handle makes that threat a thing of the past. Simply jam the Earth Handle spike into the ground and hold on to the leather-covered finger-molded grip. What would you pay for the security of knowing that you won't be spun off into space? Get a grip! A grip on the new Earth Handle, new from Peenman Enterprises."

Following the segment, Art (voiced by Phil Hendrie ) discussed the Earth Handle with guest General Johnson Jameson, who bought two (one for each hand -- because thats how heavy it is for him, man).

The Earth Handle has become a favorite prop in fan cultures. The Earth Handles often appear in web comics as an object in the background, marketed on TV shopping channels, or brandished as a weapon. An approximate model was featured as a Klingon Love Toy at Chicago Comicon with an "Earth Handle" label in Klingon text, and several comic panelists endeavored to sneak mentions into their talks.
