Our Super Bowl predictions were dead on, as Joe predicted an Eagles win and Robert predicted a Kendrick Lamar controversy.
But more importantly, who were the advertising winners and losers? And...is the Super Bowl the last remaining moment where everyone comes together to watch television at the same time?

Marketing winners include partnerships and ChatGPT.
Rants and raves include the end of book blurbs and Welch's content marketing.
