No new episode this week (thank you for your patience, we do this for fun) so AL is once again recommending you one of their fave podcasts. This week they suggest checking out the latest Boonta Vista episode including abundant discussion of dipshitted advertising techniques

No new ep from us this week, but we will be back soon enough with Part 2 of Ad Creeps' Official Salute to the Pleasures of the Flesh. Until then Al recommends this ep of @worstpossible.world with lots of good ad chat and a great critique of Supermarket Sweep

Now That's What I Call The Ad Creeps Official Salute to the Pleasures of the Flesh!
If this episode is your introduction to Ad Creeps, what a ride! Al and Dee, thank you for continuing to bring joy โค๏ธ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ
the BBC released a documentary about eden today and i urge you and everyone you know to watch it
my favorite thing to do of an afternoon is light up the vape and listen to an ad creeps while doing chores. this one is SO horny I've laughed so hard I peed a little twice
It is our joy to welcome you to the fifth season of this podcast. In this initial offering, Al and Dee trace the links between a balanced breakfast and a biblical ambiguity. Plus: anonymous pamphlets, grain-based copyright theft and an hefty amount of self-abuse.

Our interview series continues as Josh talks to @crimew.gay about how corporations, governments, and law enforcement track your usage patterns online. We also talk about how to fight back. You'll want to listen to this one.
We did an episode on the Comstock act and it's effect on the USPS back in 2022 because I was stressed about seeing that kind of narrative return: adcreeps.libsyn.com/uspss-we-del... - it's a great primer!
I (Al) can confirm that Ad Creeps season 5 will begin this coming Tuesday with the first in a trio of episodes that I'm informally calling "Ad Creeps Official Salute to the Pleasures of the Flesh"
See ya there!
Clear plastic electronics do not redeem the oppressive cultural realities of the aughts.
To put it another way: the 2000s sucked, actually.

"But thereโs something sinister about the way brands keep finding bigger, flashier ways to repurpose great moments in art to sell products" is a thing I wrote about a mayonnaise ad because I am in a normal and cool state of mind www.eater.com/24354679/whe...
seems bad
Fritz Lang, eat your heart out. This episode Al takes Dee into the formerly carceral heart of Burnaby, BC to explore some unusual studies with familiar roots. Plus, a piece of local queer history, and the question weโve all been asking: whereโs my bucket of grain??

Happy(?) 2025, my friends. We're recording soon so look forward to a new ep coming before the month is through โค๏ธ Al's got some wild ones lined up and we're excited to get back to it.
Wackies (1965-1968): This cereal was essentially a banana variant on Lucky Charms, featuring oat cereal pieces in a variety of"wacky" shapes, along with banana-flavored marshmallow bits
McDonald's Mint Ogre-Load McFlurry (2010-2010): A Canadian promotional item for the film, "Shrek: Forever After", this treat featured chocolate syrup and mint Aero Bar pieces blended into soft serve. Noted for its *strong* mint flavor
Hahaha I knew I'd catch someone
also rest assured the spotify wrapped for podcasters is just as cooked with AI slop as it is for you because i KNOW the 3rd most listened to podcast by people who follow us isn't that guy from Fear Factor ๐คช๐ค
They have very some interesting conversations about some of the kinds of campaigns we cover (like Keep America Beautiful & anything eco-disaster related) are repackaged for a right-wing evangelical audience. Also because it makes me keep hearing "the EPA? that's who YOU are??" in my head.
If you're a freak like me (and I know you are because you listen to our podcast) I recommend @worstpossible.world episodes on Adventures in Odyssey, especially 11, 27 & 33 (and probably more I haven't gotten to yet)
Connie!!! What a gift ๐ด๐ฅฐ
