Love Among the Goons

If you don’t like what’s being said, put on this week’s episode of the podcast. 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. If the figurative lemon is witnessing a loved one's mind slowly decay, the lemonade is… an extra sandwich up for grabs?

Is it still considered gooning if you bust more than once? Let us know in a five-star review on  Apple Podcasts

I'm pretty sure Gloria isn't related to anyone. Matt just thought she was Betty's aunt and I'm also pretty sure you guys already talked about how she wasn't related and Matt was just making stuff up. I assume Peggy is just being extra cautious because the pill is new, she either had the prescription and didn't start taking the pills when she had sex with Pete, or it was too early on for them to be fully effective. Either way, I understand it from her point of view. The World's Fair was a big deal to them because the World's Fair was still something of a big deal, but more importantly it was happening the next year in the city they were in. I think it used to be kind of like a version of tv or the internet but in person. You got to see what all the parts of the world and all the states in the US (when it was in the US) were up to and that was the kind of thing you'd only see in magazines or newsreels. Kinsey clearly lost his cool and went off on a genuine tirade. The first headline or two may have been part of some plan, but the rationale afterwards that now they'll trust me seems so incredibly stupid and nonsensical, that I always took that meeting to be a moment where he was legitimately out of control for a moment and not part of an attempt to be like Don. Lastly, another thing Jared Harris did was play Grant in Lincoln. And I assume you guys know his dad was Richard Harris (well, I assume Vince knows)
