Lesley and Ben are thrilled to be once again joined by Rachel Collins, host of the upcoming grocery and shopping podcast, 10 Items or Less! Instead of our usual format covering single episodes of television, we're chatting about vintage commercials and the stories they're telling! We cover 21 commercials ranging across the decades from the 1960s to 2004. Electronics Boutique, Hollywood Video, Schlitterbaun Water Park, CompUSA, B Dalton Booksellers and mail order educational software learning opportunities. All this and a lot more on this very special episode of Syndicated with Lesley and Ben!

On the Main Feed: We're posting a teaser of the first couple of commercials we covered for everyone subscribed to the show, wherever you get your podcasts!

On Patreon: Patreon subscribers, you're in for a treat. At the $5/mo level, you get access to the whooole enchilada. An hour and forty minutes of 21 commercials with commentary and live reactions. Musical numbers, jingles, childhood memories, a lot of talk about malls, bookstores, personal computing, Tom Clancy and regional amusement parks! https://www.patreon.com/posts/swlab-special-108949274?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link

On YouTube: We have a complete playlist of all of the commercials covered by Lesley, Ben and Rachel for your viewing pleasure. Many of these commercials have real wacky visual components. We included the audio in the episode, but some of these need to be seen to be believed. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLCNXaDo9tBqSnM6Wq2bE3WTyiQODHbZy
