Over the years I have done a few “Commercial Specials” as a podcast. They feature commercials with a little bit of intro and discussion. People really seem to enjoy them. So while I was working on the recent Pizza Hut podcast I decided to do one as a Supporter Only shows for Retroist Patreon Supporters.

I begin the show by talking about how difficult it must have been for my Mom dealing with a kid who wanted everything that they say in every commercial on TV. Then I move onto the commercials.

I start off with the first commercial for Pizza Hut, “Put Put to Pizza Hut.” After that things move forward mostly chronologically, although I do also group by commercial type around giveaways and the holiday season.

I enjoy old advertisements and I hope you do as well.

This podcast will only appear in the feed given to Patreon Supporters. If you are interested in this show and voting on other Supporters-Only episodes, please check out the Retroist Patreon.

Show Notes

  • This is the second of the Supporter Only Podcast for Patreon Supporters. I am posting it here to help boost awareness of what is happening over there. Regular episodes will continue, but extra shows and content are also being posted there.

  • I have also been released lots of scans and audio bonus tracks with other episodes, but this is a full episode and the first one that didn’t involve voting.

  • The next Supporter-only episode will be about Misfits of Science.

  • I cleaned up the audio on the commercials to the best of my ability. They should be much clearer than what you find online currently. Sadly I can only improve them so much based on what I have at the start.

  • I used to think that the ET glasses were the best thing Pizza Hut gave away. Now I am all in on the Bag Bag.

  • The Pizza Hut Pizza to go jingle is burned into my brain. Especially the Christmas version. That is strong advertising.

  • If you are a supporter of the show, give Discord a try, I think you will enjoy the people there.

  • Thanks to Vinvectrex who encouraged a return to this format.

Remember when Mickey Mouse decided to commit suicide?
Unless you lived in the 1930s or are a fan of vintage comic strips you might not be aware of the attempted Mickey Mouse suicide.
