Under the Influence with Terry O'Reilly

The Gong Show: Ads That Could Never (Ever) Run Today


Listen Later

This week, we go back in advertising history and take a look at the ads and commercials that could never, ever, EVER run today.

 

They are either so politically incorrect, so sexist, or so inappropriate, you won’t believe your ears.
