Brand Strategy Lead for YouTube Canada, for her  yearly recap of advertisements - which spots are audiences going back to watch? What were the themes in this year's commercials? Afterwards, Donnovan chats with Sheri Lambert
Associate Professor of Marketing at Temple University, to discuss the halftime show - they chat about how the performance has become a cultural phenomenon, and what kind of value artists derive from the show. Plus, to wrap up, Donnovan and Sho discuss Kendrick Lamar's performance itself and which performers could take the stage in the future
