Will Clint Eastwood's RNC speech cause a boom in chair sales? marketplace.org

Stumbled on this while looking for something else.
Ryssdal: Now, as a furniture professional, can you tell me what kind of chair that was? Can you look at it and say, 'That is...'?

Farrell: It's what you would call a commercial, low-quality.

Ryssdal: Well now, how much do you think the Republican National Committee paid for that chair?

Farrell: That was donated. It had to be. I doubt if they paid anything for it.

Ryssdal: Do you think, given Mr. Eastwood last night, there's going to be a boom in people wanting just a single empty chair to buy?

Farrell: I don't think so.

I love deadpan.
