Not sure if it works for when they are just sick but if they ever get a full-size badger stuck up their butt it may work. The only problem is the badger may have to turn around because they probably cannot walk backward in confined spaces. You may have to stick a flashlight in there so they can see.

He’s talking funny because he’s reading off cuecards, and is not especially familiar with the script. You can see this in other skits that he does.
