Brief Explanation
These commercials are real, authentic phone calls we recorded and broadcast on the radio. You’ll hear someone from Fiat talking to two famous Belgian television weathermen, trying to bribe them. We made these prank calls trying to improve the weather forecast during the Fiat Cabrio Days, where more sun would mean more Cabrio sales. This way these calls and their indecent proposal made headline news in Belgium. The campaign also proved that the Belgian weathermen are completely independent and untouchable. Just like the weather.
