The above video is for the Nova Drive Show, a radio show that airs in Australia. After watching this commercial, you can't help but be a little sad that it doesn't air over in North America too because the ad is so funny.
The Nova Drive Show ad basically depicts one of the hosts on his way to the office, displaying everything he comes across. The ad ends with his shirtless roommate referring to the radio station saying, "Everything is on show."
The ad aired in July, 2009 and the Nova Drive Show has advertising agency Three Drunk Monkeys to thank for it and two other similarly filmed television spots.
