The boys finally check their inbox and examine commercials sent in by our fans, who we hate now for some reason. If you have an ad you want us to review, email: CommercialBoysPodcast@Gmail.com This episode's commercials: https://youtu.be/2UrYVYePijA

The boys watch presidential and senatorial ads for the 2020 election in their longest and worst episode yet.

The Commercial Boys watch several weird and vague television ads curated by Jacob. Dan tries and fails to guess what they're selling. Watch the commercials from this episode here: https://youtu.be/W0Iaz0id5TE

The boys talk about how lately, every commercial is just a monopoly vaguely promising that they're here for you. Don't worry, The Commercial Boys are totally actually here for you though. The commercials we discuss: https://youtu.be/rdKjQvMl_Lc

Dai Delija joins us to discuss our favorite and least favorite super bowl ads, our Mike Bloomberg hot takes, and what you shouldn't say if you meet Dai. In loving memory of Mr. Peanut. The commercials: https://youtu.be/OdL9wHggpcM Willem Dafoe smile: https://imgur.com/a/REsJxcs

The Boys look into Kidz Bop, exploring its origins, dissecting its current business model, and speculating wildly about its future. Oh yeah, and we also watch some commercials.

The Boys respond to a listener request, subjecting themselves to the horrors of Rock Auto's animated ad campaign. The 8 Rock Auto commercials we watched (plus a bonus one at the end which we didn't know existed at the time of recording): https://youtu.be/pYO-hBnvPu8 Cool 3D World: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzNZlJzmjomyl00ewlxHqOA The New York Yankees: https://www.mlb.com/yankees

The boys examine a cross section of modern TV commercials by channel surfing and reviewing whatever ads happen to come on.  This episode's commercials: https://youtu.be/zvoep48TQe0  Zach's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaJpNUZZ9goxEWJE6n8ilnQ  As always, email CommercialBoysPodcast@Gmail.com if you have commercials you want us to discuss on the show.

The Commercial Boys watch all 9 FreeCreditReport.com ads and scientifically determine which one is the best. Full disclosure, FreeCreditReport.com was legally forced to rebrand as FreeCreditScore.com in 2010 and released more commercials, but I think it's fair to consider those a different campaign. Watch all the commercials we covered (plus the others from after the rebrand) here: https://youtu.be/5bueq0aWrks If you have an ad you want us to talk about on a future episode, email us at CommercialBoysPodcast@Gmail.com

Political ads. It’s like someone looked at advertising and said, “Ok, but how can we make it more cringy and less nuanced?” Kathleen Rice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XmZy1NAD4Q Tough as Texas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRYYqEgT9uI Refereeing Washington: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzC_47V2_k4 Take him at his word: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMzZ6Vx7L74 Who am I? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-66s4EjY-fs “Casey” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BYgM7yWgkY One of three #GOPtaxScam ads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHacgwFSMUc ActBlue (if you have money idk no pressure): https://secure.actblue.com/
