S1E6 – Babylon

Don't you want to see the podcast land? Welcome back to Mad Men Men! This week, we get into 'Babylon,' the sixth episode of Mad Men Season 1. Don's flexing his library card these days, but he's the one being read like a book by Maggie Siff as Rachel. Peggy's taking out the trash when it comes to sexist expectations, and is that Joan and Roger leaving the same hotel at the same time again? In case this is your first time digging into Mad Men Men, this podcast tackles 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. You can find our previous episodes here. Mad Men was created by Matthew Weiner and aired on AMC from 2007 to 2015. The show stars Jon Hamm, January Jones, Elisabeth Moss, Vincent Kartheiser, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, Robert Morse, and many more. The opening instrumental theme heard at the beginning of this podcast is “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2. Podcast illustration is by Jon Negroni. We’ll be back next week to talk about Episode 7 of Mad Men, titled “Red in the Face.” Subscribe to Mad Men Men on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or wherever else you listen to podcasts.
