Where it comes from

Kuato is the mutant resistance leader from Total Recall who lives in a man's stomach.

How the hosts use it

The fan group is 'Quaid army', and Ep. 59 floats 'quangles', a Kuato-themed Kangol. Ep. 65 has Arnold pointing at Andy's art card to identify the one in the stomach.

Why fans love it

The obscure movie reference and the 'fool me twice' sketch logic are the fun.
