Pepsi, Where's My Jet? (from Patreon)

Author: True Crime Obsessed February 13, 2025 Duration: 35:26
The year was 1996, and the cola wars were raging. Ahhh, a simpler time. To stand out, Pepsi introduced "Pepsi Points" and said that if you earned 7 million of the, Pepsi would give you a Harrier Jet--one of the most advanced military jets of the time. They assumed nobody would be able to do it. But, of course, they were wrong. What ensued was a David and Goliath story for the ages. And I think we can all agree, PEPSI NEEDS TO GIVE THIS KID HIS JET!

If you've ever found yourself deep in a documentary rabbit hole, captivated by a real-life mystery but needing a friend to process it all with, you've found your people. True Crime Obsessed is the place where gripping stories meet genuine conversation and unexpected laughter. Each episode, the hosts dive into a true crime documentary, breaking down the facts, the filmmaking, and the often-bizarre details that these stories unearth. It's less about the shock value and more about the shared experience of trying to understand the incomprehensible, all through the unique lens of people who are, well, obsessed. You'll hear passionate recaps, thoughtful commentary, and the kind of relatable reactions-from outrage to darkly comedic disbelief-that happen when you're watching from your couch. This podcast lives in the space between Society and Culture, treating these real narratives with the gravity they deserve while acknowledging the catharsis of discussing them with a sense of community and even humor. It’s for anyone who analyzes every frame, questions every interview, and then immediately needs to talk about it. Join the obsession.
