[MAD MEN] 507: At the Codfish Ball

At the Codfish BARS Don’t go in that room. Your dad’s co-worker might be getting dome in there. Just stay here and put on this week’s episode with comedian, co-host of the Oh Hell Yeah podcast, jacked thought leader, and MYAM producer, Brent Flyberg, returning to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season five episode seven, “At the Codfish Ball.” Yes, yes, Brent Flyberg, the author of this and all other episode descriptions, is back for a third episode this season as an emergency fill-in for a guest who lost power due to the advancing consequences of climate change denial, so it’s sort of a good news, bad news situation that we’re making the best of.  This episode has BARS.

You’ll need more context to understand what makes those bon mots memorable, but you’re watching the show, right? We’re not here to spoon feed you. What are you? Some kind of baby who needs us to explain everything to you? Grow up. Watch Mad Men on HBO Max, you little f*ckin baby.  What’s your favorite era for beans? Tell us in a
