    Started this podcast this month on my 3rd rewatch of Mad Men and it has quickly become my favorite podcast. The hosts are extremely insightful & don’t give off the pretentious attitude other rewatch podcasts sometimes give. I love that they review each episode with a wide lens theme and then weave in the details scene by scene. Every now and then they go off on a tangent but they’re usually funny and not too long. My only disappointment was realizing they have only gotten to season 5 since 2022.... more

  • Wanted to like this more. I really appreciate hearing the research and deep analysis as I rewatch the show, but I'm too put off by the podcast's main host. He talks over his co-hosts and obnoxiously dismisses their analyses if they don't align with his own. It seemed like the dynamic was improving for Season 2 episodes, but it's becoming unlistenable again - he's just too smug.

  • Very Good podcast, with a few demerits

    I've been bingeing this pod during my fourth-ever Mad Men rewatch (when it aired, 2018, 2021, and now).Largely I really like this pod - I find it insightful, interesting, and aspirational, which I appreciate. I'm grateful for their effort to cover the literature, art, and history in the show, and to review each episode as a short story guided by specific themes. They unlock thematic patterns that I never took time to notice, and I always love it when someone makes me see something familiar in a ... more
