Listen "WTF: False Advertising?"
Episode Synopsis
This week on What The Frock?, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod tackle the strange and noisy world of advertising. From podcasts to streaming services, from political campaigns to Super Bowl spectacles, they ask a simple question: is anyone actually paying attention?
Dave reveals why he refuses to charge for ads on the show, noting that most listeners skip them anyway. The two debate which ads manage to grab an audience and why live reads still work when flashy commercials fail. Political ads come under fire too, especially when campaigns rely on recycled stock photos that fool no one.
The conversation expands into bigger questions about media spin, government power, and whether we can still trust the voices shouting for our attention. There is laughter, skepticism, and a touch of nostalgia as they wrap up with sequels, comedy classics, and Dave’s upcoming shoulder surgery.
