Interview with Mad Men Editor Tom Wilson
Hey there, long time no talk Mad Men, huh? I’m here to officially say that we’re not going to be doing the Mad Men retrospective we discussed on the wrap up podcast. Bummer, I know, but! We do have a cool piece of content that was going to be part of that coverage, a behind the scenes interview with Mad Men editor Tom Wilson, which we recorded very shortly after the series concluded. Tom worked on 25 episodes of Mad Men during his time with the show, and has also worked on episodes of Rome, Halt and Catch Fire, and Castle to name a few. I’m very sorry to our fans and to Tom that this is so late getting out, but it has too many great tidbits and background info for Mad Men fans to keep locked up in our vault forever.

714 – “Person to Person”
Jim and A.Ron think the end of the finale episode of AMC’s Mad Men, entitled “Person to Person”, leaves a lot of room for interpretation, for both cynicism and optimism…
Support Bald Move: Amazon | Club Bald Move
What was our take? A little bit of both, to be honest. Listen to hear us talk about how we felt watching Mad Men come to a close, the parts that tugged our heart strings, the parts that had us squealing like school girls, saying our goodbyes to our favorite characters, and paying our ultimate respects to one Matthew Weiner. Thank you for making this excellent show, sir. That might be all for Mad Men, but it is most definitely NOT the last you’ve heard from the Happy Hour. Tune in next week for a series wrap up podcast, and also to hear news for our plans with Mad Men in the months to come. See you then!

713 – “The Milk and Honey Route”
Jim and A.Ron are here to help you sort through the complex feelings we’re all getting at the prospect of Pete getting the happiest of potential Mad Men endings, as we unpack the tragic and yet strangely hopeful penultimate episode entitled “The Milk and Honey Route”…
Support Bald Move: Amazon | Club Bald Move
We discuss small town hustles, German cannibalism, Betty’s dignity and grace in the face of genuine crisis — no, really! — Sally’s forced evolution into the role of mother, and Duck’s high stakes game of career poker with Pete, Pete trading in the Pit for a life of redemption and bliss reunited with his family in Wichita, and Don finally embracing the hobo lifestyle that has called out to him since his boyhood. It’s a terrific, complex, moving episode that sets us up beautifully for the end. We’ll be with you the whole way, not just next week for the finale, but the week after too, as we indulge in a series finale podcast spectacular. See you then!

We discuss Lane Pryce directing the latest Pete Punch, Peggy and Stan’s epic summit on gender relations, how it feels to root for Pete (“not great, Bob!”), the Weiner’s judo move he pulled on us as the audience, and where we’re going entering the back half of the back half of season seven. All this, and tons of superb feedback from what is in our humble opinion the greatest fan community on the internet, and much, much more. See you again next week!

710 – “The Forecast”
This edition of the Happy Hour looks at the episode “The Forecast”, which is number 710 of AMC’s Mad Men… In which we discuss Don and Betty in a race for creepiest teenage predator, ponder the future, ask if the emptiness is a problem, watch the one man 70’s fashion show that is Joan’s hot date Richard, and watch Mathis flame out of advertising in the most spectacular and entertaining way possible. We typically get stellar emails for Mad Men, but this mail bag might be historically great, as our fellow watchers really do some good work on Don and Dianne analysis, and get pop-psych over the Peter Pan Syndrome. See you next week!

We recap where we are at the start of the season, and give our hopes and fears for our favorite characters, then consider some of your feedback on same. Can the Weiner stick the landing? Is that even an important question for a show like Mad Men? What would failure look like, anyway? Who’s hooking up, who’s left standing, what kind of man will Don/Dick ultimately be in the final assessment? All this and more as we gear up to give the series the send off it deserves. See you Sunday night!

On your left you’ll see Don “The Cheater” Draper. Not only does he have the insolence to call his wife a whore, but he possesses the gall to immediately then sleep with his mistress.
On your right, Pete “GLP” Campbell, the man who puts the “Grimy”, “Little” and “Pimp” in “Grimy Little Pimp”. His heinous acts are well known and bear no repeating, beside being unfit for any audience.
And in the center, Timmy “Ketchup” Jablonski. We obviously don’t know much about him yet but unless you enjoy your ring finger doused in saliva like a ketchup-covered Oscar Mayer, you probably shouldn’t conduct your business with him.

509 – “Dark Shadows”
Jim and A.Ron break down episode 509 of Mad Men, “Dark Shadows”. In which we’re treated to multi-generational Draper bitchface, multi-cultural prejudice, and poison clouds of gas. It probably didn’t originate from Betty, but we can’t really be sure.

508 – “Lady Lazarus”
Jim and A.Ron break down episode 508 of Mad Men, “Lady Lazarus”. We have a feeling Pete will need a lot more than a cat’s nine lives to make it out of this season alive! No psychorock goes unturned as we examine entitlement, misogyny, daddy issues, and the size of Harry’s yang.

507 – “At the Codfish Ball”
“At the Codfish Ball” was a solid Mad Men episode, and we tear right into it in this podcast. Everyone comes away disappointed in this episode… Don finds out he’s an advertising pariah, Sally learns that adults are unbelievably gross, Megan learns that even when life is at it’s best, maybe it’s not all that good, Roger is better bagging French MILFs than new business, and A.Ron learns that alcohol can actually kill crucial brain cells in the span of an 80 minute podcast. Hope you guys and gals dig it.

506 – “Far Away Places”
Turn on, tune in, and drop out with Jim and A.Ron as we cover the trippy, spacey, and all around awesome hour of television that is Mad Men episode 506, “Far Away Places”. We reflect upon Peggy unleashing her inner Don (and a teaspoon or so of man essence), Roger and Jane being alone in the truth, Coop body checking Don into the glass, and the de-evolution of Don and Megan’s marriage. Not only that, but we consider some of the best fan feedback on the internet, all from you, our wonderfully bad ass listeners!
