Kevin Geeks Out About Advertising

Midnite weekend screenings happen on Friday & Saturday nights (meaning arrive on Friday and/or Saturday night by 11:45pm for seating, the movie starts after midnite)!

Run Time: 90 min. Format: Digital

Comedian Kevin Maher hosts a 90-minute look at Advertising in the comedy-variety show that dares to ask the question, “Can you hear me now?”

The stunning program will cover America’s advertising landscape, including:

• Radio jingles
• Product placement
• Commercial catchphrases
• Sponsor messages “for her”
• Advertising in a conflict zone
• LGBT+ representation in TV commercials
• Brand activations
• Banned ads

See why SyFy called Kevin “an insane genius” in the series DailyGrindhouse.com described as “TED Talks for Midnight Movies.” Join us for this one-night-only special event. Guests include:

Bret Berg (curator-host, Museum of Home Video)
Sean Carnage (filmmaker, 40 Bands, 80 minutes)
Amber Dextrous (pop-culture scholar and Friend of KGO)
Julie Kling (writer, tired-as-f*ck parent)
Val Parker (stand-up comic, co-host “Ask a F*ckboy”)
Jon Schnitzer (comedian, JUST THE TIP)
Steve Young (Letterman/Simpsons writer, musician, performer)

And don’t miss our custom 30-minute pre-show video that plays as soon as the house opens. Curated by Tom Silvestro.
