Episode 122: Super Bowl 2020: Highs, lows and the weird commercials in between

On this episode, joining host Craig Israel in the studio are thunder::tech’s own Danyelle Kupfer, Social Media Specialist, and J.P. Krainz, Account Services Director. The group conducts a Super Bowl ad roundtable, each bringing three ads worth talking about. Some well-done, some in poor taste and most of them too far out there and off message to even be properly judged.

Check it out here!
 

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

  • The cost of a Super Bowl ad space.
  • The ads that impressed us and why.
  • The high number of ads that made us ask “WHO are they targeting with this?”
  • The even higher number of ads that made us ask “WHAT does this have to do with their product?!”

Episode Quotables 

“Wait was that Molly Ringwald in that?! I did not pick up on that.”
 
“In a room of 15 people all you heard was ‘I am creeped out,’ ‘What the heck,’ probably other expletives and then ‘Ok, is this over because I am really creeped out.’”
