Bloggin Hood Mini – The Peloton Commercial

Are you looking for angry, nonsensical rants on topics but don’t have a lot of time? Well don’t worry, Bloggin Hood has got you covered. Welcome to Bloggin Hood Minis, the new recording series that will satisfy your craving for frustration over things that couldn’t possibly matter less.

Each episode will contain a timed, 5 minute rant on a topic that’s fresh on my mind. There is no script, no notes, and no outline. I have no idea where my soliloquy will end up and honestly, I don’t think I want to.

This one went off the rails real quick. Exercises are apparently found on CDs and then multiple tangents that started with the notion of “forget the sexism for a second” as I got to the part I was most offended by.

And out of character for a second, I don’t think the commercial intended to be sexist but man, it’s not a great look for the man to buy the woman an exercise bike and never use it himself. At least the company doubled down and said everyone else interpreted it wrong. That somehow makes it seem more sexist.

I’d watch or rewatch the commercial first, then listen to the rant. It picks up steam as it goes.
