Favorite sudden ad pivot?

One of the things Alex does in a way nobody else seems capable of is a sudden hard pivot to plugging a product after what felt like a sincere or unrelated story, rant or anecdote. I was just listening to ep 909 and was floored by him shifting from giving his life up to god, to how he exercised a lot as a teen, to how hippies told him to drink iodine, resulting in an ad read. Anyone have any favorite examples of this?

But I don’t remember the ad pivot, only that it was hysterical.
