The Superb Owl Spectacular iv : The Reflex Blue Show
February 7th, 2012 | by Donovan Beery
What seems to, usually, most of the time, 60% of the time every time, be our most fun show to record is the yearly ad recap from the big game. Hey, we record it the night after the game, and launch it the day after that, so we may be two days behind some, but that’s how we do this every year, so without delay, or much more of one anyway, we bring you the Superb Owl Spectacular iv!
Joined by Steve Gordon, Ashley McFeeley, and this episode’s guest host Tom Nemitz, we bring a fun show this time, enjoy.
Oh yes, we break it down to five catecories before debating the “best”:
- Cars
- Beverages / Food
- Retail / Online
- Movies
- Whatever Else is Left in a Giant Grab Bag of Stuff
For those who enjoy some footnotes to go with the show:
- Will Ferrell’s commercial only shown in North Platte, Nebraska
- The 3 that ran in Davenport, Iowa
- Eleven19 – 10 Year Open House
- April 11th – The 1st 36 Pints event at 5:30 – The Homy Inn
- 5 Hours of Adriana Lima in 1080p
- Flavor Flav Hugging Tom Coughlin

We bring back last year’s Superb Owl i host Tom Nemitz, as well as guests Steve Gordon and Rob Maguire to recap the ads played during Sunday’s football game. Nicole Blauw also makes her first appearance on The Reflex Blue Show, and brings the knowledge that the rest of us lack on more topics than I care to speak of.
The Superb Owl Spectacular is probably the most fun we have recording a podcast each year – enjoy.
