Episode description
This week, we go back in advertising history and take a look at the ads and commercials that could never, ever, EVER run today.
They are either so politically incorrect, so sexist, or so inappropriate, you won’t believe your ears.
From doctors recommending cigarettes, to 7-Up advertising to babies, to everyone singing about the joys of DDT, it’s amazing to think they all ran back in the day.
Ads that couldn’t run today.
We know you want to listen to all the ads in this show. On the off-chance you don’t, subscribe ad-free here.
