History[]
Background[]
Thorton is a hillbilly who, inspired by Buddha, tries to achieve "enlightenment" through supposedly easy self-help cookbooks and other material.
He phones in to VCPR's New World Order show and threatens the host, Dwayne, when he disagrees with him.
Thorton parodies the attempts by travel-ignorant Americans to become engaged in foreign culture through overly-commercialised and popular media.
