I really enjoyed today's episode. Paul Brittain pretty much carried the whole thing by himself and it was a ridiculous premise, and a lot of the jokes seemed really obvious (Mike Explosione Sr. selling basically zero trampolines and being open 24/7, while his brother was successful) but it was still hilarious.

The ad read where Scott almost cuts into a very funny anti immigration riff was good.

I dont like scotts commerical reads. Its basically just high pitched yelling and if he has a low talking guest and my volume is up the transition to scotts commercial yelling isnt pleasant

I like his commercial reads because it's really easy to tell when it's an ad vs the show proper when using the skip forward button.

Though it's kind of crazy to me that the commercial breaks can be up to 4 minutes now.

Really like how PFT does the Spontaneanation ads - making them into bits so I actually listen to them. Pardo does a bit of that, but PFT's are way more engaging.

I didn't skip a single CBB ad when he had Hayes and Sean sitting in. They need to be a permanent addition to the sponsorship spots.

I kind of assume they are all recorded over the phone moments before the show goes online when someone at earwolf realises he hasn't added them in yet.

Hayes and Sean are the kings of podcast advertising, I listen to like 15 podcasts and it's the only one where I don't skip the ads (Though you can't avoid the NNF ones sometimes because they'll end up talking about Threes for 15 minutes)

I've never bought anything advertised on a podcast but I remember seeing some statistic on the midroll site that said like 60% of their listeners have bought something through their ads which kinda blew my mind

I wonder if that counts things like podcast live shows and t-shirts for the shows you're listening to - not that those are wrong to count, but a different beast than Sheri's Berries.

The Harry's razors are good. Never got anything else from a podcast ad, though.

Harry's sounds like a good deal to me because I'm tired of getting tased, voiding my bowels, and being made fun of on the local news when I want to buy razors.

Cheap blades only suck if you don't clean and dry them properly, otherwise you can use a standard disposable Bic forever and it'll stay sharp.

I once did the audible books thing for when I just don't feel like reeeeeaaaading. anyway it seemed like a bum deal so i cancelled it.
As for razors I use a double edge safety razor, as recommended by the shaving crazies of watch and weight.

The best thing is listening to the adverts for the same product across a bunch of different podcasts and figuring out exactly what the ad copy says. Harry's Razors has a big focus on "having to ask the cashier to open the plastic thing".

You know I heard they liked that razor company in Germany so much that they cut out the middle man and bought them

For a while they had a chunk about how women can buy their razors too, they don't mind.
