$8 Million for That? Breaking Down This Year’s Super Bowl Ads

In this episode of the Frustrated By Your Marketing? Podcast host Jim DeMicco breaks down the biggest hits and misses from this year’s Super Bowl commercials. With brands spending up to $8 million for a 30-second spot, the stakes are high—but did they deliver?

Jim unpacks why some ads nailed their message (Coors Light’s clever product tie-in) while others completely missed (Little Caesars’ flying eyebrows). He also dives into the ad that will have everyone talking on Monday and why nostalgia-driven marketing is such a powerful tool.

From some chuckle-worthy moments to total brand disconnects, this episode is a must-listen for marketers looking to understand what separates an ad that sticks from one that’s instantly forgettable.
