Five years after the iconic show’s final season, Kristina and Elias mix some *ostensibly* on-theme drinks, recap the episodes, and do their best to explain why Mad Men remains the greatest show of all time.
Mad Men & Tonic: Recapping Mad Men, one (workday) cocktail at a time.
https://www.instagram.com/madmenandtonic/
Mad Men & Tonic is back for Season 4! It’s S4E1, “Public Relations,” and there’s a noticeable lack of holiday spirit on Thanksgiving 1964. K&E mix New York Sours, put on their chicken Kiev ponchos, and battle through rude barking podcast guests to take stock of SCDP and a post-Draper marriage world. Plus, Kristina finds a way to save humanity from aliens AND poltergeists. (Note: Background noise settles after 15ish minutes when the “guest stars” calmed down.)

Bonus Episode: Listener Letters, Season 3
Welcome back to Mad Men & Tonic! In the second (and final) bonus episode before the 3rd (Annual? Biannual? Occasional?) MME’s , we delve into listener comments and insights from the internets! Including about K & E’s zodiac signs … when K tells us that while “nature is fine and all,” she’s not your usual earthy Virgo, she’d prefer to go to an art museum, look at a watercolor of a plant, and then go out to dinner. Thanks to all our listeners and fellow Mad Men obsessives for making this one possible.
