Dave & Andrew discuss all the music at the Super Bowl: the commercials, Bad Bunny's Halftime Show ft. Lady Gaga & Ricky Martin, Zach Bryan's pre-game Madden Bowl, Green Day's opening ceremony, Brandi Carlile's "America the Beautiful," and more.
In an unusual move, Green Day checked their politics at the door. Bad Bunny gave an ode to Puerto Rico and Puerto Rican culture with all kinds of Easter eggs. His performance also included cameos from Cardi B, Karol G, Young Miko, Jessica Alba, Pedro Pascal, Toñita, and more; and a powerful, positive message for all of America. In the aftermath of his show (and Kid Rock's counter-programming), Kacey Musgraves, Zach Bryan, John Mellencamp, Donald Trump, and others shared their reactions.
