Pod Yourself A Gun - A Rewatch Podcast

Blowing Bean SmokeIs this podcast beans-funny or pickles-funny? Find out on the latest episode with comedian, writer, and ceramicist Eliza Skinner joining Matt & Vince to chat about Mad Men season four episode twelve, “Blowing Smoke.” In the wake of Lucky Strike’s departure, Don’s trying to land another big fish, but he’ll settle for beans, vinegars, and/or sauces. Faye gets him a meeting with Heinz, and he learns that he can’t make an ad about how beans make you fart, but does not lock down a new client. Remember Midge? Don’s first mistress? You never forget your first. She’s back and she’s selling paintings to fund her true passion, doing heroin. Which she describes as feeling like, “drinking a hundred bottles of whiskey while someone licks your tits.” She makes it seem like that’s good and cool and good, but on paper, sounds icky. Don’t do heroin. It’s icky. Do you ever think about the Land O’Lakes butter lady?

Chickity China the Chinese WallAs Pete welcomes a new life into the world, we welcome a new podcast into the world. Comedian, dog walker, cohost of the Oh Hell Yeah podcast, absolute unit, and producer of the podcast, Brent Flyberg, joins Matt and Vince to discuss Mad Men season four episode eleven, “Chinese Wall.”That’s right, Pete’s having a baby, and it’s just about the worst time possible. The whole office is in crisis mode after finding out that Lucky Strike is taking their business to BBDO. Pete’s running around making phone calls and fighting off Ted Chaough’s professional advances while poor Trudy is in labor for two full days because according to her doctor, that grip is medically gorilla.Don’s freaking out and trying to get (not a real) Doctor Miller to spill her closely guarded business secrets and help him poach her clients from other ad agencies. She resists at first, but gives into that ineffable Draper charm right after he shtups his second secretary of the season. She’ll certainly never regret abandoning her principles for such a loyal guy.What makes a wall Chinese? No racist answers.

Welcome back to this week’s Frotcast, the second dumbest podcast on the internet after the All-In.First up, a landmark legal case we will all be following intently: can someone be sued for a podcast bit? HEY GROK DELETE THE ENTIRE BACKLOG OF THE FROTCAST! A comedian is being sued for jokingly alleging (notice the ass-covering legalese from us) that the famous Lion King song translated to a warning about a lion, possibly a royal one. It’s going to be wild when Afroman is cited as legal precedent in this one. How do you say “because I got high” in Zulu?Next, we listen as JD Vance gets sent to voice mail by Donald Trump while addressing the crowd at a rally in Hungary. Men will literally humiliate themselves voluntarily in front of a crowd at a former Soviet satellite instead of going to therapy. At this point, reasonable minds can only conclude that all these weirdos have a humiliation fetish.Trump does, however, show up to tell us about what he got up to after the Village People show.And finally, the tragic story of Jonathan, the world’s oldest tortoise, becoming ensnared in a crypto fraud scheme. I can assure you he’s alive, well, and hates it here every bit as much as you do.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Lummer ManYou don’t need a drink. You need to listen to this week’s episode of the pod. Comedian and host of the I Hate Bill Maher podcast, Will Weldon joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season four episode eight, “The Summer Man.”Don’s been so drunk lately that Betty doesn’t want him at his son’s birthday party, so in this episode, tries to chill out with the boozing by replacing it with swimming, journaling, and narrating. There is some question about whether the narration is supposed to make Don sound cool and smart, but the podcast’s official position is that saying things like “I looked up at The Barbizon, and thought of all the women in there—one in every room, touching themselves to sleep,” makes him sound like a weird old dork. Back at the office, Joey goes full mask-off misogynist when Joan asks him to clean up after himself, because Joan is just like his mom. His mom who was always trying to make everyone look at her big knockers. I’m paraphrasing, but he does say that. He probably should have been fired on the spot for saying something so sus, but his last straw was drawing some erotic art featuring Joan. Peggy has no choice but to go full girlboss and show him the door. If Joey were a modern guy he would start a podcast so terrible he’d meet Louis Theroux. Can you swim faster than Jon Hamm?

That’s What the Podcast’s ForYou give us money, and we make podcasts for you. That’s the job. We have another banger for you this week. Dave Manheim of Dopey Podcast returns to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season four episode seven, “The Suitcase.”Is this the best episode of Mad Men? There’s certainly a lot to unpack. Get it? Suitcase? Unpack? Whatever, that joke is at least as funny as Peggy’s idea for a Samsonite ad. Mad Men would literally rather work all night (and drink a whole bottle of Canadian Club) than go to therapy, so instead of talking to someone about the grief he’s feeling about his dying California cool girl wife, Anna, Don makes Peggy stay late to keep working the Samsonite ad with him. He ruins Peggy’s birthday surprise in the process, and he never even says thank you, but as he notes, that is what the money's for.That could be a whole episode right there, but there’s also a Liston vs. Ali fight, Roger making fun of recovering alcoholics, Ida Blankenship saying racist stuff, drunk Duck Phillips trying to poach Peggy, and full on fisticuffs between Don and Duck. Who wins? The guy who killed seventeen men in Okinawa, that’s who. Does Don not know how to throw a punch, or does Jon Hamm not know how to throw a punch?

The Cure for the Common PodcastRoll out the red carpet. We have an award-worthy guest for this week’s pod. Host of The Majority Report, Sam Seder joins Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season four episode six, “Waldorf Stories.”It’s the advertising industry’s biggest night, and all the stars are in attendance, including Ned Elliot, Ted Chaough, General Rufus T. Bullshit, Ken Cosgrove, Herman “Duck” Phillips, and the night's big winner for Best Cleansers, Waxes, & Polishes, Don Draper of SCDP. Riding the high of being crowned the new king of Madison Avenue, Don returns to the office in the beginning stage of what he’ll later recognize as a bender to riff taglines for Life Cereal off the dome and blurt out Roger’s wife’s cousin’s only copywriting idea. You may remember the scene, as it is responsible for Mad Men’s widest reaching cultural impact, the drunk Don meme.Tell us your picks for this year’s Clio pool in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

The Chrysanthelumlum and the Bum BumYou better go to the store and grab a cantaloupe. We have a guest who expects gifts. Creator of Strip Law on Netflix, Cullen Crawford, joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season four episode five, “The Chrysanthemum and the Sword.”Mad Men is, if nothing else, a television show, which means there has to be at least one episode in which important Japanese businessmen need to be impressed. Honda’s motorcycle men are shopping for a new ad agency and if you thought Roger was racist before, you’ve never seen him interact with people from the country whose servicemen killed his buddies in Dubya Dubya II. He does his best to verbally A-bomb the deal, but Don hatches a plan to impress Honda while dunking on Ted Chaough.You don’t get to be that good at your job without also neglecting your kids, so on his one night with Sally and Bobby, he leaves them with his neighbor Phoebe so he can go on a date. While he’s gone, Sally cuts her own hair. Betty is pissed because she lacks the foresight to understand her new do would be very chic in Silver Lake today. What should we order at Benihana?

Return of the Rat King Pete’s gonna have a baby soon, but you’ve got a podcast right now. Once and future rat king and tech reporter for the New York Times, Mike Isaac, joins Matt & Vince to break down Mad Men season four episode four, “The Rejected.”The title of the episode is definitely not in reference to Pete’s sperm, because Trudy’s egg has accepted one of them with open coronae radiatae. He’s excited to have a little Pete running around, presumably a little freak like his father, but he’s even more excited to immediately leverage his progeny for a business opportunity. He’s some kind of high WASP alright.This episode is really about two of the very different possible outcomes of sexual intercourse. Trudy is with child, but after having sex with Don, Allison is bawling in focus groups and throwing paperweights around. Don, you ol’ rascal, you’ve done it again (driven a woman insane with your carelessness).Type up your own letter of recommendation in five-star review on Apple Podcasts and we’ll sign. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

They’re not Homosexuals, They’re DivorcedGreat news, it’s a Don in California episode of Mad Men and a banger episode of the pod. Head of video at Yahoo Sports and OG friend of the Frot, Matt Ufford, joins Matt and Vince to talk about season four episode three, “The Good News.”It’s too bad Anna Draper has to die. Don really couldn’t ask for a cooler, chiller girl to be the wife of the guy whose identity he stole. All she wants from him is to hang out, smoke grass, nail her teenage niece, and keep paying her mortgage. It’s a sweet deal for everyone involved, but all sweet deals must come to end. Anna’s got (leg?) cancer. She’s gonna die, and Don is sad about it. The good news for you the viewer is that Mad Men is often funniest when the mad men are sad men. Back in New York, one of Mad Men’s saddest men, Lane Pryce, is feeling very divorced and ready to hang, so they catch a Godzilla flick, get crowd worked by Finn DeTrolio, and end the night with some sex workers. It sounds pathetic, but feeling so pathetic is what motivates a man to pretend his steak is a big ol’ Texas belt buckle.What movie did you see when you got divorced?

Christmas Lums Butt Once a YearIt might be a balmy 82 degrees here in Los Angeles, but this week’s episode is feeling a bit like Christmas. Our gift to you, co-host of the Free With Ads podcast, Emily Fleming, joins Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season four episode two, “Christmas Comes But Once a Year.”Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce is throwing a Christmas party! Why? Is it because they love and respect our lord and savior Jesus Christ? They want their employees to feel appreciated? They just love the Christmas spirit? No! It’s because one of the worst guys in the world is stopping by, and they need his money. Sort of like how you put on a sweater and see your Dad every December. Lee Garner Jr. is your dad in this analogy (cuz they’re both closeted).Freddy Rumsen is back with dry pants and a new account, weird little Glen’s back with a lanyard for Sally, and regretfully, Don and his secretary are back in the office the day after he clumsily introduces her to his rye-pickled member. Don’t worry though, he gives her cash. That should make her feel good and not at all like a sex worker.What type of listener are you? One of the cool ones or one of the handsome ones?

Getting in on the Second Floor of our Podcast EmpireWelcome to the new golden era of Mad Men rewatch podcasting. HBO Max, likely in response to the popularity of this podcast, is now streaming every episode of America’s favorite Matthew Weiner joint. Join Matt & Vince as they celebrate their newfound cultural relevance by inviting the host of the Bad Faith podcast, Briahna Joy Gray, to kick off season four with episode one, “Public Relations.”It’s a new era for the men on Madison Ave as well. Sterling Cooper is dead. Long live Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. They might not have a second floor, but they do have Lucky Strike, Don Draper, and jai alai– wait... they lost jai alai because Don is too set on trying to convince everyone his aloofness is concealing multitudes to give a good interview to the one-legged reporter. How will this gang of plucky upstart ad men and women get out of this jam? You’ll have to watch the episode, which is much easier to do now that it’s on HBO Max. Gotta give it up to Zaslav on this one. It’s almost enough to regret saying I think someone should [REDACTED] him. Tell us what you think of Briahna’s One Battle After Another opinions in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Well it looks like our wish a few weeks back for things to suck less shit really blew up in our faces. Sorry about that, everyone. It turns out that the largest donor to the party that is actively obstructing the investigation into the Michael Jordan of pedophiles because our current president was best friends with said prolific pedophile owns a website that generates nudes of minors on demand. HEY GROK SHOW ME A TEN YEAR OLD’S GENITALSTo distract ourselves from the crackpot conspiracy-pilled eldritch horror of this current administration we watched Bugonia, a movie about a schlub who suffered an overdose of podcasts and youtube and is now convinced he’s the victim of a vast cosmic alien plot. We get into spoiler territory early on, so consider yourself warned. In the non-spoiler department, we all liked it. Jesse P Lemmons and Emma Stone are great as always, and former Pod Yourself guest Stavros Halkias is a delight.Did I mention Producer Brent is here? Producer Brent is here. He watched Anaconda, and let me tell you, this man has takes on snakes. Solid B+.Tony Dookiepill, who was hand-picked by Bari Weiss to read the news, reads the news like a person who was hand-picked by Bari Weiss to read the news. This man apparently has had two circumcisions as an adult? There has never been a better time in history to be an absolute freak.Finally, we all watched the Chevy Chase documentary and then forgot to talk about it.

Sign up now at Patreon. It’s two podcasts (Pod Yourself and the Frotcast) for the price of one! Patreon dot com slash frotcast! This is just a teaser, but you can hear the full episode by signing up on Patreon. This week, Matt is unhappily parenting, or maybe just looking for parking, in Sedona, Arizona, and Brendan is fixing an exploding pool pump, but that’s no reason to fret, because we’re ringing in the year with Sean Keane, from the Roundball Rock podcast and soon to be playing Cobb’s Comedy Club this January 7th in San Francisco.We’re discussing New Year’s Eve, and how it’s by far the most overrated holiday, but also mourning the death of a true poster, Mike Fossey, aka Mike F, by reading a few of his greatest posts. Then we mourn our dead The Wire actors, Ziggy and Clay Davis, and I tell the story of my one Isiah Whitlock Jr. encounter, which Matt rudely interrupts to call in from Sedona, Arizona while he’s in the middle of pooping. He tells us all about the crystal vortex and why he hates vacation parenting and thinks everyone in Sedona is actually on drugs.After that, we discuss Gwyneth Paltrow’s journey from actress to Goop CEO and back to actress again (Sean read a book!), and since it’s year-end list season, we review the one awards season film that Sean has seen, which happens to be Jay Kelly. Didja ever notice that Jay Kelly would’ve been much better if it had been about Adam Sandler’s character? Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? That leads into a bunch of related discussions, about American Beauty, Ben Affleck’s greatest roles and how well he lays pipe. And also Is This Thing On? and movies about stand-up comedy just generally.The regular Frot boys will be back next week, but in the meantime hope you like Sean and I just bullshitting about movies for a while.

This Thanksgiving, we at Frotcast HQ would like to collectively give thanks to you, our listeners. And also to RFK Jr for answering all the questions we have about what it’s like for a 70 year old guy to text you demanding you drink his cum. The question we’d still like to have answered is, “is it weirder to be the aforementioned 70 year old, or a 30 year old who’s totally into it?” This marks two straight episodes of Nuzzi discussion, let’s hope Ryan Lizza drops even more disgusting revelations over the holiday so we can shoot for three. Chuck Grassley POV video? Lauren Boebert interracial gangbang? Mitch McConnell Goatse?Next, thanks to Elon Musk of all people, we now know that the last decade of American politics has mostly been about literally making up a guy to be mad about. Yep, it turns out that the platform that Elon tried to back out of buying due to the bot problem has a bot problem. We’re sorry you had to find out all those hot patriotic fefos of yours are actually a Macedonian guy. In this week’s big news, our Big Beautiful President has successfully bullied Paramount into making Rush Hour 4. No word yet on how exactly 71 year old Jackie Chan is going to be able to make that happen, but surely this will be the feat that finally earns the big man his Nobel Peace Prize.

A Christmas Miracle for the Guys who Invented the Concept of Christmas MiraclesShut the door. Have a seat. We have some bad news. This is the last episode of this season of the pod. We also have some good news. Comedian Katrina Davis returns to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season three episode thirteen, “Shut the Door. Have a Seat.”It’s nearly Christmas ‘63 and those bastards at McCann Erickson are buying Putnam, Powell, Lowe, Sterling & Cooper. Why? So they can be McCann, Erickson, Putnam, Powell, Lowe, Sterling, & Cooper? Sounds more like a lacrosse roster than an advertising agency. Don has no choice but to make Lane fire him so he can round up an alcoholic ad man superteam and poach as many clients as possible on the way out. It’s like Ocean’s Eleven, but with more paperwork.What can’t the guy do? Maintain a marriage. While all that’s going on, Betty prepares to fly Reno with Henry because the only grounds for divorce in New York at the time were absence of a spouse, incurable insanity, life imprisonment, or adultery. She could have caught him on that last one but whoopsy, she’s an adulterer too. What’s your home address and social security number?

Everyone Remembers Where They Were When Duck Had Sex with PeggyPour one out for Jack Kennedy and throw on this week’s episode of the pod. Host of the Hyperfixed podcast, Alex Goldman joins Matt and Vince to discuss Mad Men season three episode twelve, “The Grown Ups.”They killed Kennedy and now Don’s marriage, and Margaret’s wedding, are ruined. Betty watches a Lee Harvey Oswald die on live tv and presumably wishes it were Don instead, so she goes to her side piece to admit she wants out. The Draper’s still have to go to Roger’s daughter’s wedding, but there’s a real who died? kind of vibe.  The only person who isn’t going to let the president’s splattered brains spoil his good time is Duck Phillips. He unplugs the television before Peggy comes over so he can give her another go-around like she’s never had before. Unless it’s like the go-around he gave her a few episodes back. You have to imagine it’s basically the same. We’ve seen nothing to indicate that Duck is a creative guy. He probably thinks woman-on-top is scandalous. What’s the farthest you’ve gone to avoid washing a bowl?

The Mistress and the CarRetrieve your horsemeat gabbagool, you’ll want something to nosh on while you listen to this week’s episode with David J. Roth from Defector, The Distraction, and It’s Christmastown podcasts, joining Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season three episode eleven, “The Gypsy and the Hobo.”In America, horses are our friends. At least that’s what David told some nice Italian folks who tried to serve him cured horse meat. In 1962, horses were both our friends, and our dog’s food, and Americans were struggling with this dichotomy. Enter Annabelle Mathis, CEO of a horsemeaty dog food company, and Roger’s old flame. She wants Sterling Cooper’s help to convince people that it’s fine for Lassie to eat Secretariat. She also wants one more roll in the hay with Roger, but he’s more interested in telling her she’s an ugly old hag who blew it when she left him. In his defense, when he drinks, he gets really funny. Back at the Draper residence, Betty confronts Don about his box full of secrets, and spills the beans. He admits everything. Everything other than the fact that he left his daughter’s teacher in the car down the street to sit and wait while he finally gets (mostly) honest with his wife. In his defense, the teacher is really pretty. Where did you think Sam Elliot was from?

Comedian and co-host of the Roundball Rock podcast, Sean Keane, returns to the podcast to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season three episode 10, “The Color Blue.”In the office, Don smiles for once. What is it that makes him smile? The love of his family? A job well done? A new hot mistress? No, it’s his healthy bonus. Money is the only thing that makes this guy smile, and it’s the most boring thing that would definitely make someone smile. For such a mysterious guy he really is simple as hell. Paul and Peggy engage in a pissing contest to see who is more creative, and you would have to be simple as hell to bet on Paul. Unless it was a prop bet that he would get drunk, jork off in the office, and treat a maintenance guy like he’s less a person, and more a plot point.

How Do You Say “On the DL” in Italian?Wake up, Conrad Hilton is calling and he wants to hear this week’s episode of the podcast right now. TV writer, comedian, and host of the TV, I Say podcast Ashley Ray returns to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season three episode nine, “Wee Small Hours.”Don’s not sleeping because he’s up all night trying to please a client. Connie Hilton wants the moon and Don presumably only wants to stay up late if he gets to cheat on his wife, so neither of them are happy. Lee from Lucky Strike makes a pass at Sal, because game recognize gay, but Sal shoots him down because he’s… married? The widdle tobacco scion’s feewings are hurt, so he demands Sal get the boot. Don is way too sweepy to be nice about it, so he slut shames Sal and shows him the door. In a way, it’s refreshing to see all of this sexual impropriety without any specific women getting caught in crossfire. Which cruising spots would you go to if you wanted to find Sal?

Peggy Gets DuckedStop staring at the sun for long enough to listen to this week’s episode of the podcast with comedian, co-host of the What a Time to be Alive and Lie Cheat and Steal podcasts, Kath Barbadoro joining Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season three episode seven, “Seven Twenty Three.”Everyone wants Don to sign a contract. Connie Hilton, Roger & Burt are all nagging at him like they’re his nagging wife, who is also nagging at him to sign the damn contract! She, of all people, should know that just because he signs a piece of paper, that doesn’t mean he’ll honor it. Look at his marriage license, and then watch how he talks to Sally’s teacher. Paper and ink mean nothing to this slut. Also horny, Duck! Duck threatens to give Peggy “a go-around” like she’s never had before. A “go-around.” Had they not figured out how to do dirty talk in the 60s or is Duck just corny as hell? Maybe that was standard issue boudoir conversation, because it works on Peggy. She has sex with Duck. Duck! The guy looks like he fucks to a metronome.Is Betty autistic?

Guy Carried Out of an Advertising AgencyEveryone get in the conference room, the podcast has a new org chart. Producer Brent is at the top, directly beneath him are hosts Matt & Vince, and right below them is this week’s guest, host of Dopey podcast, Dave Manheim, who is here to talk about Mad Men season three episode six, “Guy Walks into an Advertising Agency.”The big swinging knobs from Putnam, Powell, and Lowe show are shaking things up in the Sterling Cooper office. First, they have a pretty new org chart that commits an act of Roger Sterling erasure, then they prank Lane with a promotion that would move him to Bombay, and and as a coup de grace, a guy named Guy gets his foot mangled by a brand new John Deere lawn mower that someone let Lois drive in the office.It’s also supposed to be Joan’s last day at the office, but it turns out her handsome doctor husband is not only an r-wordist, he’s also not a great doctor. Not good enough to get the promotion they were counting on to get her out of the workforce. Tell us where you belong in the new org chart in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Don’s Hot for TeacherGet the overnight bag, Betty’s in labor. While she goes through the terrifying, awe-inspiring experience of giving birth, you can sit in a special waiting room for dudes and listen to a new episode of your favorite podcast. Producer of the pod, comedian, co-host of the Oh Hell Yeah podcast, AL West Champion Seattle Mariners supporter, episode description writer, and now parody song writer, Brent Flyberg joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season three episode five, “The Fog.”You read that right, there’s a new Draper D-story swinging d-word in town. I wrote it, I sang it, I tacked it on at the end of the episode. I learned in the process that singing is hard, especially trying to sing like David Lee Roth. Much like this podcast’s second favorite guy named David Roth, Don is hot for Sally’s teacher, but more obviously in this episode, Miss Farrell is hot for Don. She’s calling him at home, talking all breathy with a glass of wine like damn we get it, we know what Jon Hamm looks like too, but get it together, lady. Probably the only thing that stops Don from driving over and taking her to philandertown in that exact moment is his shrieking wife who needs a ride to the hospital to deliver another one of his little snotty kids. At that moment, he likely thought it had never been harder to be a white man in America. Tell us what you would name Don and Betty’s third kid in a five five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Living the Jai A-lifeStop trying to make jai alai happen and listen to this week’s episode of the pod with returning guest, Letterboxd lover, and journalist from Semafor, Dave Weigel, joining Matt & Vince for a chat about Mad Men season three episode four, “The Arrangements.”RIP big Gene. The writers may have forgotten about your dementia, but we’ll never forget you. Not that it’s a competition, but Sally is definitely the most distraught about her grandpa’s passing. He was teaching her so much, from how to drive his car, to inferior Assyrian genes leading to Rome’s downfall.Pete finds a “fatted calf” to offer to Don in the form of a rich dingus who’s trying to make jai alai America’s next national pastime through the magic of advertising. Don would rather save Burt’s relationship with the rich dingus’s father than carve money out of the kid, so he tries to stop the deal, but Mr. Jai Alai Sr. gives them the all-clear. As you know, America's next national pastime was not jai alai. It was always going to be gun violence. Sal gets two big opportunities: 1. Direct Patio Cola’s Bye Bye Birdy ripoff ad and 2. Have sex with his wife. He uses anxiety about 1 as an excuse to get out of 2, and he… well, sometimes I look up an episode synopsis on the Mad Men Fandom wiki while writing these, and whoever wrote this one described it perfectly so just read it: “Sal acts out the Bye Bye Birdie takeoff for Kitty, whose cheerful encouragement fades as her husband minces his way through the choreography.” “Minces.” Devastating. Who’s your pick to win the Battle Court Jai Alai fall season this year?

Roger’s Old Kentucky RacismPut that shoe polish away and listen to the latest episode with comedian and author of First Time, Long Time, Amy Silverberg, joining Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season three episode three, “My Old Kentucky Home.”If you’re watching the show along with the podcast, you may have noticed there’s a new disclaimer before this episode about blackface, and how it’s bad, and you should not do it, and we agree! However, none of the various media with blackface in the 50s and 60s had such a disclaimer, so Roger likely had no idea that it was problematic to throw a derby party with his child bride so that he could show everyone how good he is at singing in blackface. He also would have rolled his eyes so hard if you said something he did was “problematic.” If Roger were alive today, he would accuse this podcast of being infected by the woke mind virus. Back at the office, Peggy and the gang are getting blazed on the sweet cheba, leading to inspiration for the Bacardi campaign, proving sometimes drugs are good. If you’re keeping score at home: black face = bad, drugs = good (sometimes).Tell us your experience with a lingering drug dealer in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

We have host of the Finding My Audience podcast and comedian Allen Strickland Williams, whose album, Ran Through, is available now, joining Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season three episode two, “Love Among the Ruins.”Limey Lane is settling into his new life in New York by taking his wife out to dinner with Don & Betty, but the Mrs. is still acclimating. She has some complaints about the bugs and the Africans. Have you noticed that these white people in the 60’s say a lot racist stuff? At the office, Paul pisses everyone off by taking the Madison Square Garden account to task for tearing down Beaux-Arts masterpiece Pennsylvania Station. Like, okay Paul, where do you expect Jermey Lin to drop 38 on Kobe and induce a national case of Linsanity?In the Draper household, a new roommate moves in when the family decides Betty’s dad can’t be trusted to take care of himself if he’s buying sandwiches for women who have left him.

Sound the Gay Alarm, MYAM is BackPlease don’t cut our dicks off and boil them in hog fat for taking a break between seasons. MYAM is back with Dave Schilling, author of Horror’s New Wave: 15 Years of Blumhouse, to help Matt and Vince kick off season three with episode one, “Out of Town.”The Sterling Cooper offices are experiencing a British Invasion of their own after being purchased by Putnam, Powell, & Lowe. Meet Burt Peterson, head of accounts. Now forget him. He’s fired. The new head of accounts? Much to his delight, Pete Campbell. Much to Pete’s chagrin, Ken Cosgrove is also named head of accounts. Two blue-blooded waspy boys being asked to share? What is this, some kind of budget polo summer camp?On a business trip to Baltimore to meet with London Fog, the hotel the fire alarm goes off the second a bellboy reaches into Sal’s pants, implying either God is punishing him, or hotels in the 60’s had gay alarms. In the ensuing evacuation, Don learns Sal’s big secret. He is chill about it, but you can tell he thinks it’s icky. Are you a virgin if you’re a closeted gay man who has only had sex with women?

Stop!This week we serve up our listeners a cunt named Brian Abrams, a guy who’s seen way more movies than Vince and author of “You Talkin' to Me?" The Definitive Guide to Iconic Movie Quotes. Brian joins us for the main subject of this week’s episode, Ari Aster’s latest film Eddington. Unfortunately, we drag him into some very stupid topics before we get there. Sorry Brian.We get down to brass tacks right away- every man has a price, and Matt’s is $20,000. That’s right folks, he’s run plum out of royalty freestyle ideas, so now he has to whore out that sweet, sweet man-ass of his.Next up, the 46-year-old French guy who got humiliated to death while streaming. That’s right folks, GERARD DEPARDIEU IS DEAD (pause for Kevin Eubanks to stop laughing).Now throw in Cuomo’s swagless social media, Jordan Peterson’s mold problem, and important news from the President of Space, Kevin Spacey (we beg you, don't overthink the bits), and you got yourself a B+ of a pod, baby.Find Brian on his website, Letterboxd, and TikTok.(-Description by Brendan)Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week we welcome comedienne Jessica Sele to the show to discuss bidet usage. But first, we kick things off talking about steamy hot cat sex. We bring up dogs briefly as well, but let’s face it, we know what our audience wants to hear about.Speaking of which, we all watched Trainwreck: Poop Cruise which kinda felt like it was made for us but unfortunately (predictably, tbh) was a paint-by-numbers streaming doc. Props for minimizing usage of “typing things into a google search bar” shots, though. There’s a number of great stories to be told about it, but they focus on a small number of people and gloss over some major parts, such as, why anyone thought it was a good idea to make drinks free. There is a book’s worth of sociological insights to be gleaned from the poop cruise earning its name because everyone interviewed talks about refusing to poop in a bag, which of course exacerbates the issue and degrades the quality of life for everyone on board, but you aren’t going to hear about it on this podcast. I mean, come on. Lastly, we dive into the New York Times’ hit piece on Zohran’s college application, which was only uncovered due to a hack of applicant data at Columbia, and provided to them by a “race science academic”. We asked Dave Weigel how exactly the ratfucking of Zohran would occur, but none of us had this on the bingo card. At least we still have Wordle.You can find Jessica on Instagram and Twitter.

Meditations on a FinaleAs is customary for the last episode of a season, we brought in the closer and honorary Pod Yourself a Third Chair. From Defector, The Distraction, and It’s Christmastown podcasts, David J. Roth joins Matt and Vince for the Mad Men season two finale, “Meditations in an Emergency.”We know they’re not going to get blown up by Russia, but the characters don’t know that yet. There’s a missile crisis in, or around, Cuba, and on Madison Avenue, they’re living like there’s no tomorrow. Pete tries to get one last we’re-gonna-die shag from Peggy, who then confesses that she gave away his baby. He looks sad, but you just know he still would have hit if she let him. Betty decides she too can play at the philandering game, and has her one last we’re-gonna-die shag with a strange man in what appears to be a bartender’s dressing room? Manhattan cocktail bars in the sixties seem cool. You could smoke inside, bartenders had dressing rooms you could have sex in, and oh wait right they didn’t let black people in. Nevermind, the sixties were bad. The podcast is good. Just enjoy the podcast.

Chile Relleno in Palm Springs and Tony Curtis in the BathroomPack your bags. For this week’s episode of the pod we’re going to California with the Senior Culture Editor at GQ and co-author of Quantum Criminals: Ramblers, Wild Gamblers, and Other Sole Survivors from the Songs of Steely Dan. Alex Pappademas joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode eleven, “The Jet Set.”Pete & Don go to the sunshine state to scout new clients at an aeronautics convention and have wildly different, but both quintessentially LA, experiences. Like most New Yorkers, Pete hates everything until he sees a celebrity. “Everybody here is late for everything… Oh! I just saw Tony Curtis in the restroom,” he says before getting ignored by beautiful women at the pool. Don, however, is beautiful, so he gets taken in by a gang of beautiful, wealthy people who don’t seem to have jobs. One of them wants Don to sleep with his daughter, which is somehow a story that Vince can relate to. Back at the office, the creative team learns that Kurt is a homosexual who makes love with the men, not the women. (his words). The reaction is as homophobic as you would expect for 1962, and poor Sal has to hear it all. Tell us which celebrities you’ve seen in the bathroom in a five star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Betty’s Dad is Strokin’ and Gropin’Say wazzzzzup to this week’s guest. Joining Matt & Vince is the funniest female comedian in the world, Alison Stevenson, to discuss Mad Men season two episode 10, “The Inheritance.”You likely remember the Budweiser ad that inspired millions to ask “what’s up?” in a merged, while drawn-out, fashion, but do you remember the Obama campaign ad that brought those guys back to your screen (all the way from Iraq!) to ask wazzzzzzup with America? It’s Alison’s favorite ad. She’s likely seen it more times than she’s seen an episode of Mad Men, but don’t be weird about it. It’s another A+ edition of the podcast. The Mad Men episode is fine too (solid B+). Betty’s dad makes a pass at her, Pete finds out his once old money family has become nouveau pauvre, and Paul’s girlfriend learns he only cares about her rights if he’s not getting a free trip to California. Try to explain why there is sexual tension between Glenn and Betty in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

The One Where Freddie “Faints”We know you’re drinking because your daughter has had a string of bad beaus, but we have a good man on this week’s episode, writer of Spaceman and the Hollyweird newsletter, Colby Day, joins Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode nine, “Six Month Leave."According to Wikipedia, this is the episode in which beloved office lush Freddy Rumsen “faints” just before a pitch meeting, but don’t worry this is not a Mandela effect, you remember it correctly. He doesn’t faint, he goes pee pee in his damn trousers. Roger and Don agree it’s pretty funny, but even a white man can’tpiss in his damn pants at work and expect to keep his job in 1962. It was the dawn of woke culture. They take ol’ Freddy out for one last bender before sending off to pasture in the hopes he can learn to just drink beer. In the process, they say some anti-semitic stuff, meet a heavyweight champ, punch a comedian, get thrown out of an underground casino, and Don unwittingly convinces Roger to leave his wife. It’s a reminder to be careful what you say to your boys who hate their wives.

YouTuber and creator of Manufacturing a Dream: A Mad Men Retrospective, José, joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode seven, “The Gold Violin.”Don buys a new Cadillac because everything is coming up Draper. He’s a rich, successful white guy in the 60s. He can do whatever he wants without any fear of repercussions, unless of course he leaves his wife alone for ten minutes with the man he’s been cucking. Back at the office, Jane gets fired for sneaking into Bert Cooper’s office to appreciate some art, but Roger promises to get her job back if he can just get her address. He’s a rich, successful white guy in the 60s, so this would have been seen as a romantic story. Tell us what you think of Cosgrove’s short stories in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It’s the latest episode of MYAM with writer and TrueAnon podcast host Liz Franczak joining Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode six, “Maidenform.”A new campaign for Playtex has all the boys excluding Peggy to talk about what types of women there are, and how they correlate to bras and public figures. This culminates with Peggy dressing like a harlot and sitting on some dude’s lap, but in a cool, empowering way, probably. While the men of Sterling Cooper are talking about cups and straps and first ladies and whatnot, Don learns that the women of New York are talking about what he can make that dick do. Bobbie informs him he has a reputation as a good sex-haver. Sounds cool to me, but it makes Don wanna put his tender heart in a blender and watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion, so he ties her to the bedpoooooost.Are you a Marilyn, a Jackie, an Irene, a Gertrude, or a Chauncey?

Bobbie Barrett is Don’s new girl on the side, Jane is the new girl on Don’s desk, engaged Joan is a new girl celebrating (relatively) young love, Peggy feels like a new girl after asserting her place as Don’s peer, and Pete finds out his seed is strong enough to potentially produce a new girl.Don might have a new girl but he’s the same old mad man. He’s driving drunk with a mistress he sort of hates when he crashes his car so bad he has to call Peggy to bail him out and hide his sidepiece at her apartment until the bruises heal.

Jamaican Me Dad DieDon’t think about the president gutting the FAA, just listen to the latest edition of MYAM with Comedian and co-host of the Roundball Rock podcast, Sean Keane joining Matt and Vince to discuss Mad Men season two episode two, “Flight 1.”RIPete’s dad. In this episode, the Campbell paterfamilias dies in the American Airlines plane crash that everyone in the Sterling Cooper office is joking about. The tragic aviation accident that killed one of their peers is not just laughing matter to these mad men, no, it’s also a business opportunity. Duck thinks American Airlines might want to make some new ads. You know, some print ads that draw attention away from the 95 bodies at the bottom of Jamaica Bay, and towards the skirts on the stewardesses. Meanwhile, Paul and Joan get in a fight because Paul is a phony and Joan is both racist and 31. Paul puts her on blast by revealing her age to everyone in the office, because in 1960s America it was much worse to be a 31-year-old woman than to be racist. Don’t think about which is more socially acceptable in 2025 America.

Drew Magary from Defector, SFGate and The Distraction podcast joins Matt & Vince to kick off season two by discussing Mad Men season two episode one, “For Those Who Think Young.”Before we get into this week’s episode, a quick victory lap to celebrate our appearance on (Celebrity) Jeopardy! That’s right, Ken Jennings himself had to say “Pod Yourself A Gun” on national television. Phase one of our complete media takeover has begun. Next we get Michael Barbarro to say “Lum lum lum” on The Daily.In this week’s episode, it’s Valentine’s Day, and Don has high blood pressure everywhere but his penis. That’s right, he can’t perform sexually for Betty because… the American dream is a lie? The thrill of stealing another man’s identity has worn off? He drinks a pint of rye a day? Whatever the reason, you can avoid this problem, dear listener, by going to Bluechew.com and using promo code LUMLUMLUM for half off your first batch of boner pills (Bluechew, hit us up - we definitely have listeners who need your pills).Tell us how old you think Matt & Vince look in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Mad Man HouseGareth Reynolds of The Dollop, Past Times and We’re Here to Help is here to help Matt & Vince process the season one finale of Mad Men, episode 13, “The Wheel.”To paraphrase Vince’s off-the-dome episode synopsis: Peggy’s got a tummy ache so bad she has to give birth, Betty goes spy-mode on Don after Francine learns her husband is cheating, and Pete’s father-in-law really wants Pete to rawdog Trudy. On top of all that, Kodak has re-invented the wheel and needs Don to convince America to buy one. A new viewer, Gareth gets introduced to almost every important character, including Marten Holden Weiner’s Glen character. Glen might not know how long fifteen minutes is, but he knows how to capture the hearts of even the most jaded podcaster.Tell us about your ideal man house in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

Who Cares?The results are in: The next podcast you listen to will be this one, with Rachel Fisher from the Hollywood Crime Scene podcast returning to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season one episode twelve, “Nixon vs. Kennedy.”The rank and file at Sterling Cooper throw a little party to watch the results of the Nixon/ Kennedy election roll in and it has all the trappings of a 60s office party: jugs of creme de menthe, the staged reading of a one-act play, and, of course, rampant sexual harassment. This is also the episode where we learn just what happened to old Dick Whitman in Korea. He pissed himself to death in a fiery explosion and Don Draper rose from the cigarette ashes. Pete doesn’t know all the details, but that doesn’t stop him from tattling to the boss that Don isn’t who he says he is. But this is America, so Burt Cooper is like, lol who cares? This guy could be named Dick Foreskin and have bodies buried in his backyard as long as he keeps making me money.Tell us which role you want to play in Kinsey’s one-act play in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.

That Funny FeelingThis week’s episode of the pod will give you the flush and glow not only that you might have after hours of exercise, but certainly as a young girl. Isn’t it nice to feel that way whenever you want? Writer, comedian, & JonBenét Ramsey case scholar Ashley Ray joins Matt & Vince to discuss Mad Men season one episode eleven, “Indian Summer.”Before there were door-to-door solar panel salesmen trying to sleep with our wives, there were door-to-door air conditioning salesmen trying to sleep with our wives. So you can imagine how pissed Don is when betty lets one of these lechers into his home. The nerve of this woman to let another man into Don Draper’s home while Don is busy supporting his family and/or sleeping with Rachel Menken – the sheer gall. But hey the gals have needs too, which is why Peggy gets an assignment to write copy for a new female masturbatory aid disguised as an exercise aid. She gets a raise and a new sex toy. Not a bad day at the office for ol’ Peg.Tell us how you would describe vibrating underwear for a 60’s ad in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.
