In this episode of Because I’m John Sellmeyer, John and his beautiful wife Alondra reunite behind the mic for a deep dive into the cultural phenomenon that was Super Bowl 60. While the game itself—a Seahawks vs. Patriots rematch—might have been a "boring" defensive struggle for a Chiefs fan, the halftime show was anything but.

We break down Bad Bunny’s record-breaking, cinematic halftime performance. With over 128 million viewers, it wasn’t just a show; it was a powerful statement on Puerto Rican culture, unity, and the resilience of the island's people. From the hidden messages about the power grid to the surprise appearances by Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin (plus a legendary nod to Daddy Yankee), we discuss why this performance made Alondra feel "seen" and why it left John—our resident "gringo"—vibing along.

Plus, we look ahead to some exciting life updates:

• Autism in Film: A sneak peek at our upcoming episode with Reese, diving into characters like Forrest Gump, Drax, and Buddy the Elf.

• The Big 10th Anniversary Trip: Planning our epic journey to London, Paris, and Rome for October 2026.

• Destination: Puerto Rico: John and Alondra are heading to San Juan in just over a month!

• Super Bowl Commercials: We talk about the funniest spots (shoutout to Ben Stiller) and the more controversial, impactful ones like Rocket Mortgage.

Finally, stick around for a special guest review from Benjamin, who gives the halftime show his official rating.
