Why These 5 Ads Are The Best and Worst Super Bowl LIX Ads (Part Two)

Super Bowl ads: they can be brilliant, they can be cringeworthy, and sometimes, they can just make you question everything. Welcome to part two where Ralph and Lauren go all in on the weirdest, most awkward, and most controversial ads of the year. From Coffee Mate’s disturbing tongue commercial to Tubi’s bizarre cowboy skin-hat fiasco, they break down which brands took big swings and which ones completely missed. Plus, they dig into the politics creeping into the Super Bowl, the unexpected Ontario ad (yes, Canada bought a Super Bowl slot), and the massive flex that was Tom Brady’s $2M watch deal. Whether you love ads, hate ads, or just want to know which ones made Ralph’s skin crawl, this is a breakdown you don’t want to miss.Chapters:00:00:00 – The Return: Ralph & Lauren Take on Round 200:00:39 – The Ads That Made Us Cringe (Seriously, Why?)00:02:27 – Effective But Uncomfortable: Ads We Hated but Remembered00:05:49 – Tugging at the Heartstrings: The Emotional Plays That Hit (or Missed)00:13:45 – When Ads Get Political: The Ontario Ad, Trump, and More00:19:26 – The Biggest Letdowns: Ads That Flopped Hard00:25:01 – What We Learned: Key Marketing Takeaways from Super Bowl 2025LINKS AND RESOURCES:Best Super Bowl 2025 Commercials Ad Meter RankingBreast Cancer Super Bowl Commercial with Wanda SykesLeslie Jones Stops Your Annoying Relatives from Ruining Thanksgiving | The Daily ShowWatch All the Ads of Super Bowl 2025The 10 Most Viewed Super Bowls of All TimeOntario Commercial Highlighting Contributions to the USACharted: The Rising Cost of Super Bowl Ads 1965-2025Tier 11Mongoose MediaTier 11 JobsPerpetual TrafficMarketing Performance Indicators™ ChecklistPerpetual Traffic on YouTubeTier 11 on YouTubeConnect with Lauren on InstagramConnect with Ralph on LinkedInFollow Perpetual Traffic on TwitterThanks so much for joining us this week.
