Last week, we paid tribute to Sal Romano's final appearance on Mad Men , so this week we had on Bryan Batt, the actor who plays Sal to talk about all things Mad Men ! The best part might be the fact that Will had no idea Bryan was going to be on the show going in, so you get to hear his actual reaction to suddenly seeing Sal himself in the recording studio. Bryan answered all of our questions, eve...

When we say we want to watch Mad Men on the moon, we mean it. That's right, it's time for another episode of the Mad Men Men podcast and this week we're saying goodbye to our good friend Salvatore Romano (Bryan Batt) and saying good early morning to the new jogger in Don's life.

We're just three guys walking into an advertising show, all of us hoping to keep our feet intact. That's right, we're back to discuss and recap Episode 6 of Season 3 of Mad Men , titled "Guy Walks Into an Advertising Agency." Should we plan to mow down the competition when it comes to other Mad Men podcasts? In case this is your first time digging into Mad Men Men, our humble little baby podcast r...

This podcast was recorded during the  2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes . Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the TV show being covered here wouldn’t exist. We're in the waiting room with a special guest this week! That's right, we invited Mad Men aficionado Ben Crew to talk with us about Episode 5 of Season 3 of Mad Men , titled "The Fog." Put another way, what if...this...

Sorry we're late with this episode, we were out picking up peaches and smelling the oranges. That's right, this week we're discussing Episode 4 of Season 3 of Mad Men , titled "The Arrangements." As we point out, this is a big episode for characters with "Sal" in their name, and if you happen to coincidentally be a massive Jai Alai fan. Actually, you might not be too happy about how this episode p...

We'll give you five dollars if you listen to the latest episode of the Mad Men Men podcast. The only catch, though, is we're going to immediately steal it back. That's right, this week we're discussing Episode 3 of Season 3 of Mad Men , titled "My Old Kentucky Home." An episode so spicy, it gets a disclaimer at the beginning if you're watching the digital version. The workers of Sterling Cooper ar...

We don't like what we've been saying lately, so we're changing the conversation. That's right, we're back this week to discuss Episode 2 of Season 3 of Mad Men , titled "Love Among the Ruins." This is an episode all about replacing the old with the new, whether it's the sound of Ann Margaret's voice selling you Diet Pepsi or Peggy doing something new. Having sex! Well, almost. Elsewhere in the Mad...

Hurry up and finish heating up your milk and processing your daddy issues like you're in a play, it's time to talk about Mad Men again! That's right, we're back this week to kick of Season 3 of Mad Men with "Out of Town," and boy do we get to see a couple old boys hanging out, out of town. It's a big Sal and Don episode is what we're saying, but wait, there's more. Pete Campbell and Ken Cosgrove b...

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...

Here's hoping you love Mad Men Men as much as you love popsicles. That's right, we're back this week to discuss the California dreamin' of one Dick Whitman. This week we're recapping Episode 12 of Season 2 of Mad Men , titled "The Mountain King," which is scary and we know.

This is one of the more controversial episodes of Mad Men , where some fans absolutely love it while others find it confoundi...

Get your comics out. The Mad Men Men podcast is back this week with even more problematic relationships to dig into. We recap Episode 10 of Season 2 of Mad Men , titled “The Inheritance,” and wow does that title carry a lot of weight in this episode where Harry Crane gets his very own office baby shower. And like Hildy, Mike Overhulse showed up to the podcast with some, ahem, alcohol in his system...

All right, keep your pants on. The Mad Men Men podcast has returned, and with it, a whole episode about Freddy Rumsen! We can't be too surprised about what goes down in this episode considering "rum" is literally in Freddy's name. This week, we're recapping Episode 9 of Season 2 of Mad Men , titled "Six Month Leave." Betty squares off against a frosted over freezer. Peggy's promotion comes after a...

New year, new girl. That's right, the holidays are over, so it's time we advertise our return from the beach with yet another episode of Mad Men Men.

Don finally meets the one and only Tilden Katz. Joan has some new bling to show off. Pete's...

We can relate, since sometimes it takes us three weeks to record just one episode of Mad Men Men. That's right, this week we're covering Episode 4 of Season 2 of Mad Men , titled "Three Sundays." And we're having quite the crisis of faith as a result. The Drapers have some daddy issues to sort out. Peggy's Catholic guilt takes center stage, and so does Colin Hanks as Mad Men 's prototypical Hot Pr...

Take it from some nuts. Mad Men is even better with some nuts. That's right, it's time for yet another episode of the Mad Men Men podcast, and we're putting our whole heads into this week's installment.

And it's time for the introduction of two characters many Ma...

That's right, it's time for another episode of Mad Men Men! This week on the podcast, we discuss "Flight 1," which is the second episode of Season 2. Drugs and racism rear their heads at an office work party. A flight nosedives, and Pete won't b...

And we're back. To do the twist! The twist to a new season that is. In the time since we finished recording season 1, we switched over to InBetweenDrafts, so here we are! Let's get started. This week on the podcast, we discuss "For Those Who Think Young," which is the first episode of Season 2. Valentine's Day sweeps the Sterling Cooper staff and their families. Don's meditating on a poetic emerge...
