The Superbowl Ads are Trying to Kill You, Slowly

Hey monkiis,

I was watching the Superbowl this past Sunday evening and noticed that a significant percentage of the commercials were for either junk food or alcohol. I found this to be quite disturbing on one of the most-watched sporting events of the year. I found it equally as disturbing that in the vast majority of these commercials celebrities were the ones pushing products that we know for sure are bad for you. I don't have cable TV so perhaps I am extra sensitive to this, but I felt compelled to comment. I don't have a solution either. However, I think starting the conversation and being aware is a great place to start.

Total commercials (all industries): 53

Junk Food/Alcohol commercials: 14 (14/53 = 26%)

Food and Beverage commercials: 19 (14/19 = 74%)

What are your thoughts?

Thanks for listening and we'd be eternally grateful if you could leave a 5-star review wherever you get your podcasts. It helps to grow the monkii family and spread the good word of the Wild. Thank you.

Until next time...monkii on,
