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 are attending a garden party with some questionable entertainment choices. Young Sally's crime spree continues at the expense of Grandpa Gene and especially Carla. Peggy Olson is her name, getting high is her Mary Jane. And I can't believe we're only JUST now finding out that Paul was once part of the Tiger Tones!
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.
