Pickup truck drivers with good credit and a concern for the environment will one day soon be able to drive the new all-electric Endurance by Lordstown Motors. Our ability to evolve… I like that framing. Manufacturing in Ohio and throughout the Rust Belt has required a massive injection of money and new thinking for decades. […]

It’s the season of serious. We all have so much to be serious about. Will schools ever start again? Is it safe to go on vacation? How long will we be wearing masks? When will the economy recover? When will neighbors care more about being a good neighbor than their political identity? Too much of […]

It’s summer but it’s like no summer we’ve ever known before. Due to the pandemic and resulting confinements, even the simple act of going to the park or briefly chatting with a neighbor are real pleasures and moments we now savor.

Oreo can’t fix our ailing economy or find a cure, but the cookie maker can extend a lighthearted and cheerful message, which is perfectly on-brand. There’s nothing wrong with this Oreo spot, especially considering it was released on April 9th. But it’s the kind […]

Vous etes seuls, mais je désire etre avec vous. Before we consider how Nina Simone’s song is used in a commercial, let’s consider the song. The song is from Simon’s 1982 album, Fodder on My Wings, and it expresses the perfect sentiment for this pandemic-ridden time. You are alone, but I want to be with […]

Are you tired of seeing commercials with zero production values? Commercials shot on iPhones? Or commercials captured from a Zoom chat and edited in post? Have some patience!
