Today on the pod Land and Aviva discuss insurance ads. They chat about a giant male eagle laying eggs, Scientology, and why the Geico Lizard is from the UK (despite England not being the most tropical of climates). Also as a fun bonus, they lend some helpful tips on how to find your way out of a paper bag.

Aviva and Land share the most unforgettable commercials from their childhood, and maybe yours too (If you happened to be a kid at exactly the same time as either of them, in the United States, in a similar target market, depending on the region). We talk about dolls that poop, dogs that poop puppies, a waterslide with a bump, tying a lemon to your ankle, and the very best thing of all, counters. And do we talk about the type of counter that counts, or like, a marble counter? Listen to find out!

We've all had Miller Lite, and can agree that it's one of the most delicious hoppy nectars here on G-d's green earth. But what we can't agree on, is whether the best part about Miller Lite is if it tastes great, or if it's less filling. Both things are huge benefits about the drink, and it's almost impossible to decide. We also talk about Siskel & Ebert, Orson Welles, Rodney Dangerfield, aluminum siding, and our main man Crazy Bruce with comedian Scott Simpson (California Kings Podcast).

It's 4AM in 1998. You're in a sort of half-awake half-asleep state when Enigma's "Return To Innocence" starts playing from your TV. Why is this song playing? Why did you forget to turn off your TV? What "mood" does this CD represent exactly? We talk about this and other CD compilation commercials with the hilarious Kate Elston (Newsbroke, Vicious Cycle Podcast)!

A dancing man in a Spongebob tie, a sentient mattress that enjoys crushing peoples' bones, and family of Sasquatch's who live in the woods. What do these things have in common? They're all in the mattress commercials we discuss in this week's episode, featuring Clara Pluton!
