Part 7/14:
The hosts mock the media’s tendency to frame Lamar’s performance as revolutionary or groundbreaking, pointing out that many viewers tune in simply for the spectacle rather than the musical artistry. They also comment on the trend of viewership for halftime shows surpassing the game itself, noting that "133 million views" for a performance far exceed the actual game’s audience.
Phil argues that the NFL should aim for artists with more crossover appeal—such as Post Malone or Morgan Wallen—who can attract both niche and mainstream audiences. Serge agrees, noting that Lamar’s music is too narrow and appeals mainly to a specific demographic, which limits his suitability for such a broad stage.
