First story I want to get into is the Super Bowl.

0:02.5

Okay, so first, let's start off with the bad bunny performance.

0:08.0

Rob, what can we show?

0:09.5

What can we show with the bad money performance?

0:11.8

What can we not show?

0:14.6

I'll start off with an open-ended question.

0:17.0

Turning Point USA at the same time announced they're going to be doing a halftime show, okay? And they're a half-time show, Rob, if I'm not mistaken, I know they announced they're going to have Kid Rock there, that a bunch of different people there, and they're like, okay, is this going to work? Is it not going to work? There's not really a crowd there. Do we just invite a few friends and family and then put on the show? How many people

0:37.6

are going to show up? What will we consider a success? On the TPUSA YouTube channel, we watched

0:44.1

it 10 minutes before the halftime show. They had 250,000 people waiting. Then it went to 450,

0:50.4

then it went to 650, then it went to 650. Then it a million. And then all of a sudden, we were all of all betting at the house. How many people were going to be watching a live stream? I think you hit 5.6, 5.7 just on a TPP USA channel, not including Charlie Kirk's channel. 13 hours later, 20 million people watch these guys perform. And Rob, the folks that were performing were who?

1:37.5

the Grammy that he gave to that kid, that kid apparently when we were watching it, it was like,

1:41.8

hey kid, young bad bunny, he's an actor. The kid was an actor. One day, you're going to win a Grammy. And he's giving it to his younger self, which was a good depiction. So, and then there was no ice message. And matter of fact, you know what's the craziest thing? What Super Bowl did? Shout out to Roger Godell. Right after Bad Bunny was done performing, guess what was the first commercial that played

2:02.6

right after the Bad Bunny performance?

2:04.5

An ice commercial.

2:05.7

Did you guys see this?

2:07.1

An ice commercial, Rob.

2:08.6

Is this the ice commercial?
