Pod Yourself A Gun - A Rewatch Podcast

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 frotcast@gmail.com; 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.

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.

Don Draper Dodges Department of Defense Disquisition If anyone from the DoD asks, this podcast is not for communists. On the latest episode, comedian and co-host of Struggle Bus Live, Nick Viagas, joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season four episode ten, “Hands and Knees.”Tough week for the fellas at SCDP. Lane’s papa comes to visit and he’s so excited to meet Lane’s new “chocolate bunny” girlfriend (Lane’s words) that he bashes his son in the head with a cane. British people have weird ways of showing affection. Don’s got G-men sniffing around for a background check related to Pete’s North American Aviation account, and they show up at Betty’s doorstep to ask if her ex-husband “Don Draper” is “loyal.” She’s like, uhhhh he’s definitely not a different guy with a different name. Ultimately what he is is a deserter so, much to Pete’s chagrin, they have to spike the NAA deal. Roger might win the award for maddest man this week. Joan is pregnant despite being married to a guy who’s in Vietnam, and Lucky Strike is taking their business to BBDO. Roger responds by promising to raise the child with Joan as his wife, and tells the partners about Lucky Strike immediately so they can form a plan. Lol yeah right. He suggests Joan could trick her husband into raising the kid as his own, yells at Pete for losing the NAA account, and doesn’t say a word about losing SCDP’s biggest, and his only, account. It’s too bad Joan got an abortion, it would have been fun seeing how terrible Roger is at being a parent for a young child. How would you fight your dad?

Can We Interest You in a Hard Time?The girls are beautiful, the men are mad, and the pod is cast. Co-owner and editor of Defector, and co-host of the It’s Christmastown podcast, David J. Roth returns to talk to Matt and Vince about Mad Men season four episode nine, “The Beautiful Girls.”Pour one out for Ida Blankenship. She was an astronaut, a hellcat, and she died how she lived, surrounded by the people she answered phones for. Ida dropping dead at her desk is one of a handful of problems Don is dealing with in this episode. It’s a real sitcom for ol’ Dick Whitman. His daughter is showing up unannounced, his situationship can’t talk to kids, he needs to get his secretary’s body out of the office before the important business men see her, and he’s going on a date with two different women on the same night?!?!?Ida was sort of Burt’s Joan, so he’s sad in a poignant way. Roger’s also sad, but Roger but in a horny way, so he does parlay this tragedy, along with a street mugging, into some hot sympathy sex with his Joan on a stoop in Harlem. If we’re ever unfortunate enough to get mugged, may we all be so lucky as to immediately have sex afterwards. Are you mad that Matt did a parody of a more recent song?

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 frotcast@gmail.com; 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?

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?

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?

What’s Blue to You?Lock up your old dog tags and divorce papers before you listen to the latest episode. 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. Then you might have enough money to make Don smile again. What was Paul’s brilliant but forgotten idea?

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?

On the plane, you can listen to this week’s episode of the podcast with co-host of the Hollywood Crime Scene podcast, and returning guest, Rachel Fisher joining Matt & Vince to discuss Mad Men season 3 episode eight, “Souvenir.”Betty and Don go to Rome so they can hang out with Connie Hilton at a cafe that looks like it’s in The Grove, and then hump each other’s brains out. It’s nice when the married people stop cheating on each other long enough to bone giorno. Trudy Campbell is also going on a little trip without her husband, and you know what they say, while the Trudy is away, the Pete will do SA.

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 frotcast@gmail.com; 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 frotcast@gmail.com; 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 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?
