The world didn't end on Monday, so we can talk! That's right, we're back this week to discuss the return of the Draper. We're recapping Episode 13 of Season 2 of Mad Men, titled "Meditations in an Emergency," though the real emergency is our recording schedule. This is the season finale, of course, so we have plenty of reflections upon Mad Men's sophomore chunk of episodes, which takes plenty of bold swings, but how does it truly stack up to Season 1? We're meeting with the people who bought us to go over this, so make sure you can hold your liquor. And we need a real dog to become president of Sterling Cooper, so stay tuned for that...
In case this is your first time digging into Mad Men Men, our humble little baby podcast recaps Mad Men from the perspective of someone who hasn’t really watched the show, someone who went through it once a long time ago, and a superfan who watches excessively it instead of having a functional social life.
