Retro Ad Review is a podcast where we explore nostalgic commercials from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s. We go into the details behind your favorite commercials, from the story of their creation to their impact (or lack thereof). Coke, McDonald's, Nike...we cover them all.
So, if you like watching the ads more than you like watching the Superbowl, have a listen!
