Tommy Donovan, a devout follower of this site, called this to my attention. It's a clip from a recent The Price is Right and I think it may be an off-air moment during one of the commercial breaks…

You know who that man in the audience is? That's Jimmy Weldon. Jimmy was a kid show host in Los Angeles in the sixties (and elsewhere, before) working with his puppet friend, Webster Webfoot. He supplied pretty much the same voice for the Hanna-Barbera duckling Yakky Doodle and did other voices on H-B shows. More recently, he's been a motivational speaker and he's quite a character himself. Too bad he didn't get selected as a contestant. It would have been great to hear Yakky bidding on a new Lexus.
