Hot Takes Inbound
The Super Bowl is advertising’s big day.
Sure, the biggest budgets are on display in all their majesty.
But honestly, it’s when we all have free reign to do what we do best: offer opinions.
We’ve gathered some super smart people from across the country to share theirs in our annual Chalk Talk Super Bowl Ad Review panel event.
The bonus is the audience gets a say, too. We’ll be bringing hand raisers onto our virtual stage to spout off in this highly interactive session.
Chalk Talk is our most engaging event of the year, so start making notes and reserve your spot today.
