The Problem With the Middle

The Problem With the Middle

On February 7, 2021, the biggest yearly sporting event in America took place. While the Superbowl is known as the championship for the NFL, it is also an advertising frenzy, as new commercials are anticipated. One of the most talked-about offerings was from Chrysler. After decades of him refusing, they were able to get Bruce Springsteen to say "yes." The result was a Jeep ad that was centered on a little country church in the heart of Kansas. Its theme? The Middle.

Dr. Robyn and Rev. Anna dig into the reason this commercial was resonant with some and problematic for others.
