S1E10: Long Weekend

Aaaannd Mad Men & Tonic has hit double digits! In our recap of S1E10 - Long Weekend, Kristina and Elias nearly give themselves coronaries drinking Evil Twin Martinis (drink lesson begins at 0:49), and getting through the drama of the episode (episode recap/discussion begins at 4:57). They channel that “get up and go” energy to dive into a truly classic episode, complete with multiple references to “riding bareback,” an introduction to the R-E-A-L Betty Draper, and a touching moment between Roger and the palm of Don’s hand. https://www.instagram.com/madmenandtonic/ Evil Twin Martini https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/evil-twin-martini-cocktails-2005 Seelbach Hotel in Louisville, KY http://www.seelbachhilton.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seelbach_Hotel The Cheerleader Effect (originated by How I Met Your Mother, but since backed up in studies) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheerleader_effect#:~:text=The%20cheerleader%20effect%2C%20also%20known,they%20are%20in%20a%20group.
