More on: Product placement

The podcast episodes provided demonstrate the widespread use of product placement in various forms of media, from feature films to television shows and even podcasts themselves.

For example, the episodes discuss the excessive product placement for brands like Lexus Moonfall LIVE!, Lumify eye drops The Chris Chatman Do-Over - 8. Frankie's Episode, and Chevy Honda The Chris Chatman Do-Over - 8. Frankie's Episode, highlighting how these commercial insertions are integrated into the narratives and production.

The episodes also explore the historical relationship between the automotive industry and Hollywood, as well as how artists have subversively used product placement as a form of culture jamming, as discussed in Decoder Ring: When Art Pranksters Invaded Melrose Place.
