Summary

What do Diana Ross, Dan Aykroyd, and Indiana Jones all have in common? Well, they have — at one point or another — performed at the Super Bowl Halftime Show — and one of them flew away in a helicopter! Ahead of Rihanna's Super Bowl performance on Sunday, Sam asks writer and halftime show connoisseur Brian Moylan which headliners have earned their rightful place in the Halftime Hall of Fame. Who had the best choreography? The worst vocals? Which artist had the most impressive pyrotechnics? And whom can we thank for ushering us out of the dad rock era of halftime shows? We also hear about the culture that's haunting us: Thanks to social media, we sure do know a lot about Jill Zarin's personal life. Send us your culturegeist. What specific thing in the culture has haunted your for days, weeks, or even years? And why? Email us a short voice memo at intoit@vulture.com. Learn more about your ad choices.
